The elimination of USAID was an unforgivable moral atrocity that should haunt Trump, Elon Musk and Marco Rubio for the rest of their days and beyond
One analytical model shows that, as of November 5th, the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D. has already caused the deaths of 600,000 people, two-thirds of them children. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/jUzNSc
The Shutdown of U.S.A.I.D. Has Already Killed Hundreds of Thousands
The short documentary “Rovina’s Choice” tells the story of what goes when aid goes.

We don’t talk enough about how straight up creepy Elon is to women. Like, if you saw him in a bar you’d reflexively put your hand over your drink.
AOC says we should pass campaign finance reform so everyone can “stop being so scared of what a billionaire man child thinks”.
Elon responds with a picture he generated by asking Grok for “images of AOC as sexy Pepe”.
We’re reaching levels of divorced dad misogyny previously unknown to science

Excited to be at the Global Impact Evaluation Forum @UN!
Tomorrow, I’ll present results from Semillas de Apego, a program for caregiver mental health & ECD in conflict-affected settings, and discuss why gender perspectives and maternal mental health are central to impact in these settings.

How will Trump’s plans to deport undocumented migrants impact US economy?
Studies show Trump policies would cause ‘significant tightening in the already-tight job market’, hurting many sectors.
