I’M SURE IT’S ALL TRUMP’S FAULT SOMEHOW. As bird flu ravages poultry industry, the damage spreads.
On the other hand, one of my Facebook friends posted this as her answer to efforts to do so:
UPDATE: Actually, though, we just paid $3.99 for a dozen of “Eggland’s Best” eggs, Helen’s favorite.
ANOTHER UPDATE: From the comments:
A LOT OF POCKETS WERE LINED, THOUGH. 11 years after a celebrated opening, massive solar plant faces a bleak future in the Mojave Desert.
WELL, I WAS RIGHT. The Left Gave Us Trump 2.0. And they’re not going to like it.
IT’S NOT LIKE THAT. IT IS THAT.
Criticizing Musk for wanting to protect taxes is like crying because someone shut off your corruption tap.

"We talked about Trump wanting to be a dictator on day one, and here we are. This is what the beginning of dictatorship looks like!"

Yes, dictators are noted for cutting back on sham foreign aid. It’s practically a trademark.

ANOTHER UPDATE: Haha!
My favorite part about DOGE is how one of the guys will be some kind of insane prodigy who decoded the Herculaneum Papyrii at the age of 20 and the hit piece author’s bio trying to take him down is like, “associate staff writer for general topics, hobbies include having a cat.” pic.twitter.com/wgXE2RkVCL

FLASHBACK: Sorting for Stupidity? Thoughts on the state of the federal government. “Thus, my hypothesis is that these factors produced a new kind of sorting among the bureaucrats, in which the brighter ones were more likely to leave meaning that, over time, the people staffing the agencies would become, on average, dumber. And note the double whammy – the agencies are becoming dumber because they were more powerful, since that produced the lobbying dynamic that made the smarter people more likely to leave.”

GOD FORBID THAT THE PEOPLE WHO WRITE THE CHECKS HAVE ANY INFLUENCE: Bigwig academics lament donor influence, Trump at U.

USAID notice instructs staffers not to go to agency headquarters Monday, after Musk said Trump agreed to shut it down

UPDATE: Just Like That: USAID Is (Mostly) Dead. “As a practical matter, as long as the president can get DOGE to go through the books it will be hard to revive the agency in its current form because, simply put, it is corrupt to the core. . . . You may think of foreign aid in terms of keeping the poorest of the poor from dying horrible deaths, but the meat and potatoes of USAID is extending the tendrils of power for the transnational elite and funding political operations. The censorship-industrial complex depended almost entirely on this slush fund.”
