“No children are dying on my watch,” said Rubio. It's blatantly false. Credible estimates count 190K deaths so far.

In Kenya, I am seeing devastating impact, incl this child's starvation & many deaths directly caused by Rubio’s actions. More in my @msnbc.com clip. www.instagram.com/atul.gawande...

USIP did the right thing. USAID should have done the same.
BREAKING—The United States Institute of Peace (USIP) office was just on lockdown for close to an hour while members of the DOGE team tried to enter the building, multiple people have told me. Security has now escorted out remaining staffers who’ve been told to telework until further notice.

This is a pretty extraordinary filing by the gov't in the USAID foreign assistance case.

Long story short, in spite of the court's grant of a TRO last week, the USG is still freezing and canceling foreign assistance.

BREAKING: Judge NICHOLS says he will be entering a "very limited" restraining order aimed at protecting the 2,700 USAID employees being placed on leave and those being hurriedly relocated.
NEW: The Trump administration won't publicly release names of FBI staff who worked on Jan. 6 cases without a two-day heads up, under an agreement reached Friday with agents suing to prevent the potential disclosure.

Our congressional delegation pursuing oversight on reports of Elon Musk’s illegal activity at USAID was just barred from entering the building on the orders of Musk and the Trump Administration.

Nobody elected Musk — this is illegal and corrupt and we will keep fighting it.

Hawaii Senator Brian Schatz says he’s putting a blanket hold on all of President Trump’s State Department nominees until USAID is back up and running.
Exclusive | Democratic Senator Says He Will Block Trump Nominees Until USAID Is Back
The move would require Senate Majority Leader John Thune to use precious floor time to advance the president’s nominees through the confirmation process.

Finally, we’re starting to see some fight. We need more of this 🔥

🚨Trump’s decision to shut down USAID has frozen critical work to deliver vital assistance around the globe, and put China in the driver’s seat.

Outside of USAID headquarters, Senator Brian Schatz:

"If you want to change an agency, introduce a bill and pass a law. You cannot wave away an agency that you don't like or that you disagree with by executive order, or by literally storming into the building and taking over the servers."

BOOM!

Gerry Connolly: "It is a matter for Congress to deal with, not an unelected billionaire oligarchy named Elon Musk. And Elon, if you want to run USAID, get nominated by Trump and go to the Senate and good luck in getting confirmed."

I support this.

Elon Musk cannot dismantle USAID without an act of Congress.

Democrats must use every lever at our disposal to block his illegal takeover and shutdown of an essential government agency.
