Shuttering of USAID Will Lead to Millions of Deaths Around the World: Studies<\/em>, Time Magazine, July 1, 2025. Jason C. Andrew\u2014Bloomberg\/Getty Images<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The End Of Civilization As We Knew it, Part Twenty-Nine<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, July 1 2025, may go down as the worst and most pivotal day in history. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A big statement, backed up by an abyss of darkness, which will be pursued in ongoing depth in the future, as the lead up to today has been thoroughly in the past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, USAID, which hundreds of millions of the most vulnerable people in the world, mostly children, depend on to not starve to death, be killed by disease, and be maimed in countless ways, rather than be fed, nurtured, medically cared for, helped in conflicts, and have the leading edge of disease prevention provided for–which is the key to providing this for all people on the planet, as well as providing global stability instead of chaos and conflict that willl take the planet down in blood and flames–was officially disbanded by the Trump administration. It’s gutting had already happened in the first weeks after his inauguration, led by the richest person in the world, Elon Musk, and his so called DOGE team who Trump had tasked to do this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the same day, the US Senate passed Trump’s budget, the most radical transfer of wealth ever from the poorest to the richest in America. The decimation by lack of funding for or destruction of the programs that from the poorest to the lower middle class, the bulk of the working class, that have been supported with basic services is incomparable, a reversal unlike any before of the basic needs and services that impact virtually all Americans, again disproportionally hurting children, except the wealthy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although Musk also fashioned the essence of the above as part of his previous mandate from Trump, after he and Trump infamously turned on each other a short time ago, Musk attacked the bill as the worst thing in history based on the enormous increase in the already out of control national debt. His attacks on Trump and the Bill escalated again today, with Trump responding that he might have Musk deported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The wreckage both of them, and all those who supported the above in Congress (the bill was so charged politically that it took Vice-President Vance to break a tie in the voting in the senate), is impossible to overstate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hundreds of millions of lives have been saved and improved by USAID over its lifetime since President John F Kennnedy founded it in 1961.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hundreds of millions will now die or be hurt for life in many ways. This is what the American flag will now stand for in the eyes of the people of the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Millions will also go hungry, suffer from disease, and lack basic services and support in America.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All the above programs and agencies and their critical work worldwide and in America have been widely supported by both parties for decades. Until now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The infrastructure of the world since the Great Depression and the end of World War Two is now being decimated in radically unimaginable ways. This could never have happened in the America that existed before 2024, not even in the America of 2016 and the many internal cultural and external horrific events that had culminated in it. The movement in this direction, a complete breakdown in sanity and morality in the culture at large and the political results have been moving in this direction more and more for many years, as we have written extensively about. But even so, where we are now has never been possible, or imagined as possible before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

President Bush, President Obama, and musicial and global activist Bono, all came out today critiquing what has happened in the strongest terms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These programs and policies have been at the center of our work from the outset and we have had a substantial impact on supporting and improving them. Seeing this happen is heartbreaking beyond description.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As written in the last installment of The End Of Civilization As We Knew It<\/a><\/em>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Everything has changed.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The full meaning of this will continue to be flushed out by us. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For now, an extensive group of articles on these events, follows, including the front page article in the Sunday New York Times the day after the US bombed Iran on how Trump had dismantled USAID in weeks, demonstrating the momentous nature of the issue:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
