USAID. So incredibly frustrating to see the randomness of cost cuts, wholesale wiping out programs that save lives. It beggars the imagination. I am so sad to see this happening.

OPINION: While I was at USAID, we prioritized working with faith-based groups because they were on the front lines of saving lives, protecting children and making the world a safer, better place.
USAID: The best of bipartisan and faithful work now nearly lost
(RNS) — It is perplexing to hear the vice president champion faith-based aid initiatives while, at the same time, funds for efforts like these are literally being turned off.

God be in your head, and in your understanding.
God be in your eyes, and in your looking.
God be in your mouth, and in your speaking.
God be in your heart, and in your thinking.
God be at your end, and at your departing.

For #RFK day #2, a song that name-checks how his "kisses the ring"

““We used to dream of Camelot.
Now RFK is all we’ve got.
He’s done and said some kooky things.
But he always told us to eat clean."

Find it everywhere.
