Trump Administration Halts H.I.V. Drug Distribution in Poor Countries (Gift Article)
PEPFAR’s computer systems also are being taken offline, a sign that the program may not return, as Republican critics had hoped.

NEW: Trump names Jared Kushner’s father Charles Kushner, as the next US ambassador to France. Jared is of course Trump’s son-in-law.

Trump already pardoned Charles in the dying days of his first presidency for charges including illegal campaign contributions, tax evasion, and witness tampering.
