Change that happens quickly is difficult to manage. I am glad The Good Foundation has not received funding from USAID. There is a lot wrong with this organization. All of the radical funding needs to stop. I believe Elon Musk at President Trump's request is doing the right thing. USAID will get back on track and hopefully have more funds to give for the good of people, not some study of aberrant sexual practices (if they exist) of a wild animal. God bless you all.
Please provide verifiable evidence that USAID funds were being used to study “aberrant sex of wild animals.” That has never been the purpose of USAID. It was to do the kinds of things pointed out in this newsletter and, as was pointed out, people will literally die as a result of cutting funds. The US left millions of tons of bombs & mines in Laos & Cambodia from our war in the 60s & 70s. Since Musk cut funding for NGOs doing demining work, 2 people have died in Laos. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/usaid-cambodia-demining-trump-cuts-funding-rcna192172
Elon Musk recently claimed that "the fundamental weakness of Western civilization is empathy." I thought empathy was what made us human. Musk, in his interview with Joe Rogan, claimed Democrats are "exploiting a bug in Western civilization, which is the empathy response." Never in my wildest dreams did I think saving lives, educating children or helping people grow useful crops instead of coca for cocaine was political until Musk came along.
Thank you for the update. I was wondering what impact this would have on the work of the Good Foundation.
We will continue to do what we can to help by continuing our work with a more determined spirit at Global Thrift.
How exactly do we push back on this? Does anyone have any ideas?
