Earlier this year when Elon Musk and his DOGE disciples made massive cuts to USAID that included issuing stop-work orders to the two American companies that make a lifesaving peanut paste widely recognized as the best treatment for malnutrition, there was a bit of a public outcry.
Musk vowed to investigate the issue and “fix it.” Hours later, Musk announced that the contracts with the two companies that provided the peanut past -- Edesia and Mana Nutrition -- had been restored.
But here's the rub:
The contracts reinstated in February applied to old orders for emergency therapeutic food that Mana and Edesia were already in the middle of fulfilling. But two weeks ago, without any fanfare, the Trump administration then canceled all of its upcoming orders — that is, everything beyond those old orders that were previously reinstated — according to emails obtained by The Atlantic. The move reneged on an agreement to provide about 3 million children with emergency paste over approximately the next year. What’s more, according to the two companies, the administration has also not awarded separate contracts to shipping companies, leaving much of the food assured by the original reinstated contracts stuck in the United States.Well, isn't that just special.
What kind of sociopaths would let 3 million children die?
Pro-life party, my ass.
