Hold Elon Musk accountable for the humanitarian catastrophe his dismantling of USAID has caused. A 2025 Lancet study found that DOGE's near-total collapse of US foreign aid is a death sentence for an estimated 4.5 million children. These aren't abstractions. Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times journalist Nicholas Kristof has named them: a 23-year-old woman who died in childbirth, a one-year-old who died of malaria in Liberia, an eight-year-old named Achol Deng who died in South Sudan after Musk cut funding for the health worker providing her HIV/AIDS medication. Musk called USAID "evil" and boasted he fed it "into the wood chipper." That's not fiscal responsibility — it's recklessness with human lives. ProPublica documented the resulting man-made hunger crisis. Representative Ro Khanna has called for Musk to testify. I want you to support that demand and push for a full congressional investigation into DOGE's destruction of USAID and the documented deaths that followed.
