A not-good thing: Those smoke alarms that chirp for no apparent reason (and that cannot easily be located by the most determined human beings). If we can put a person on the moon, and invent impossible burgers, can we maybe find a way to fix this?

Russian fencer Konstantin Lokhanov, whose ex father-in-law leads Russian Olympic Committee, rejects Putin’s lies & condemns the invasion: “When I hear that everything is not clear, what is not clear? It’s as clear as possible. To kill other people is bad.” nytimes.com/2023/07/08/spo…

Elon Musk said DOGE made a mistake by cutting USAID’s Ebola prevention but it had been “restored.” That’s not true, current and former officials told me and John Hudson. “There have been no efforts to ‘turn on’” Ebola prevention, said Nidhi Bouri, who oversaw team til January.

Yesterday, Rubio terminated 5800 USAID contracts – more than 90% of its foreign aid programs – in defiance of the courts. Here’s a list of just some of the lifesaving awards that were terminated. Nearly all were Congressional mandated. They've saved millions of lives. 🧵

We are barreling toward a full blown constitutional crisis. Trump's announcement that he's ending thousands of aid contracts FUNDED BY CONGRESS is unconstitutional and illegal - and horrible for our security. 1/ A quick🧵on what's going on. apnews.com/article/trump-…

Perhaps people who are celebrating the cuts to Aid in the USA and Uk - and think that “it was all corruption and woke nonsense” would like to read this thread on the real world impacts of cuts to development for hundreds of millions 👇

This is a huge victory against arbitrary, unchecked power -- and a key step toward restoring at least some of USAID's vital work to advance freedom and American security and to save lives.
