@georgetakei Senator Padilla for President! Clearly he is an American that has walked in our shoes. Felt out struggle and has compassion. A person of great judgement and knowledge.

MoscowMigrantThe dismantling of #USAID is a Global #Disaster
- Food #aid for 1 million Ethiopians - gone.
- Medical care for malnourished Kenyans - gone.
- #Malaria eradication in Senegal - gone.
- Water supply in Burkina Faso - gone.
- Aid for #disabled people in Vietnam - gone.
- Hospitals for 100,000 Myanmar #refugees - gone.
- #AIDS treatment saving 25M lives - gone.
- Independent #media funding in #Russia & #Ukraine - gone.
Russia and #China move in. The world pays the price.

Peter Donde was a 10-year-old infected with H.I.V. from his mother during childbirth. But American aid kept Peter strong even as his parents died from #AIDS. A program started by President George W. Bush called #PEPFAR saved 26 million lives from AIDS, and one was Peter’s.[...]Without the help of the community health worker, Peter was unable to get his medicines, so he became sick and died in late February, according to Moses Okeny Labani, a health outreach worker who helped manage care for Peter and 144 other vulnerable children.[...]“If #USAID would be here, Peter Donde would not have died,” Labani said.[...]Achol Deng, an 8-year-old girl, was also infected with #HIV at birth and likewise remained alive because of American assistance. Then in January, Achol lost her ID card, and there was no longer a case worker to help get her a new card and medicines; she too became sick and died, said Labani.(🎁) https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2025/03/15/opinion/foreign-aid-cuts-impact.html?unlocked_article_code=1.4E4.3w7B.JereYHcyYH8N&smid=url-share #ElonMusk #Musk #ForeignAid #DOGE
MikeDunnAuthor15,000 people have already died due to Trump's cuts to USAID.
SINCE 2003, AIDS relief through USAID had already saved >25 million lives. Trump's cuts to the agency could lead to hundreds of thousands, or even millions, more deaths in the next few years.
Measles has a mortality rate in poor countries of 3-5%. Without USAID, vaccinations in those countries will likely decline, increasing deaths, as well.
Jeri RyanHey CA peeps…
Please don’t make the mistake of thinking that since we’re a blue state, your vote doesn’t matter!
Yes, the EC is bullshit; but in order to win back the House — which we absolutely MUST do — flipping those congressional seats in CA is ESSENTIAL!!!
Please, please, PLEASE VOTE!!!
