This may well be the most monstrous thing the Trump administration has ever done, and that's saying something.
Shutting down USAID is a decision that will ultimately have a preventable death toll on the same order of magnitude as the Holocaust. I wish that was an exaggeration.

Our 249-year-old system -- two-party presidentialism -- has sometimes worked in spite of itself due to favorable conditions, un-codified norms, & a few periodic fixes.

I wrote about what I think is a genuinely revealing document of elite depravity and impunity. It is shocking and sickening. But it's also a crucial moment. We're about to see what happens when conspiracy theorists actually get what they asked for but it turns out not to be what they want.
