The Trump admin has hit a new low in cruelty. They are set to spend 130K to burn 500 tons of emergency food (USAID) that could feed 1.5M children for a week 🤬🤬🤬 thedailybeast.com/trump-admin-to… Trump Admin to Incinerate 550 Tons of Emergency Food Meant for Children
Shameful
"Five months into its unprecedented dismantling of foreign-aid programs, the Trump administration has given the order to incinerate food instead of sending it to people who need it" waste, fraud, etc: it costs $130,000 to burn food worth $800,000 theatlantic.com/health/archive…

Getting Kristi Noem to do her job instead of photo ops
As the former Emergency Management Director of Florida I’m calling for an immediate investigation by @HomelandGOP @HomelandDems and @TransportDems @TransportGOP If accurate, this is a major deviation from FEMA protocol, may have slowed down response and been a contributing factor
