‘Bleeding to death in the dust’: Reporter says maternity hospital Musk closed saved lives
Tech billionaire Elon Musk is being schooled about the impacts of his foreign aid cuts that one reporter says have already killed people.
When he came into office, President Donald Trump created the “Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE)” by executive order and tasked Musk with the responsibility. That initiative has been behind the upheaval and dismantling of government agencies. Websites, grants, programs, and employees have been cut or frozen under the promise that Trump will save taxpayers trillions.
Meanwhile, in the real world, Trump spent more money in February 2025 than Biden spent in February 2024.
The savings are bullshit, his tax cuts for the 1% will go on the deficit just like last time.
And the rest of us? We get to pay more.
