A stock of U.S.-bought birth control, meant for sub-Saharan Africa, goes bad in Belgium Millions of dollars worth of contraceptives have been stored in Belgium since the U.S. froze foreign aid. A local official says some products were stored improperly and are largely unusable.

When you really hate women…

Shout out to the governments of #Belgium and #Flanders for fighting this as far as it goes #USAIDsavedlives

Derek Thompson: "Two weeks ago, Marco Rubio said #USAID 'has little to show since the end of the Cold War.' Days earlier, a Lancet study estimated that USAID global health programs have saved 90 million lives—not since 1991, but since just 2001."

Aid groups say USAID cuts are already having deadly consequences Secretary of State Marco Rubio said at a hearing last week that no one has died from USAID cuts. But aid groups say abruptly shutting down those programs is having deadly consequences.

Not so fun fact, Big Balls Coristine, proud HS graduate, was one of the SOB's that killed #USAID and he had NO CLUE what they did. So, I hope all of you idiots who voted for this mess are ok living w/the 300,000 deaths you've caused around the world.
