Apparently, it's a hallmark of "independent" media if the US President breaks wind and, just minutes later, you're blown away.
A few days ago, newly re-minted US President Donald Trump put the brakes on internal sabotage of his own administration by ordering the State Department to freeze American funding of foreign aid. Oh, won't someone think of the starving children? Well, critics can unclutch their pearl necklaces because he did exactly that, actually. The freeze doesn't apply to emergency food assistance, as Reuters has reported.
"This is lunacy. This will kill people," a former official for CIA handmaiden, USAID, now president of Refugees International, told Reuters. A couple of years ago, his organization was promoting the idea that the big threat to Syrians was the stability - or "normalization", as it had said, under former President Bashar Assad. Must just be a coincidence that it's also the position of those who failed at regime change and were looking for a way to keep that dream alive. In December 2024, his organization found "no substantial, confirmed cases of corruption among Ukrainian partners." Yeah, well, maybe that's because the same organization also admits that only 1% of the aid actually makes it into the hands of local Ukrainian organizations. Doesn't sound like the Ukrainian people are going to much miss those few crumbs that they've been tossed by their Western establishment ideological colonizers.
Comment: Fulcrum point reached - finally? Sentiment, tactics, blow back are reversing direction. A Trumpet is sounding.
