RFI: Deadly Floods in Nepal: Washington's Elimination of USAID Program Under Scrutiny

More than 1,200 people have died and more than 4,200 are missing after the floods that struck Nepal on August 26. Following the disaster, former officials of USAID, the United States Agency for International Development, are questioning the elimination of a program dedicated to flood prevention and monitoring of glacier-related risks. The program's elimination had been decided in 2025 by the Trump administration.

While #Musk may be keen to appear to be a savour in the current crisis in #Nepal with his #Starlink satellite communications systems, there are a couple of angles to consider to this.

Firstly, Musk was the man who less than 18 months ago while heading up #Doge ensured there were $39 million of cuts in aid to #Nepal.

"How #DOGE Gutted the #NEH in 22 Days."
insidehighered.com/news/facult…

"[A newly released] trove of documents—including depositions with top NEH administrators and DOGE staff, as well as emails, spreadsheets and text messages—suggest rushed, chaotic funding termination decisions and reveal the extent of DOGE’s influence in terminating 97 percent of the agency’s grants."

Example: DOGE terminated an NEH grant to replace the HVAC system at a museum, acting on this #ChatGPT rationale: "Improving HVAC systems enhances preservation conditions for collections, aligning with the goal of providing greater access to diverse audiences."

Agreed. 100%

But I struggle a lot with the situation where big companies AND/OR governments kill 100s of thousands of people and destroy billions of dollars of property while facing zero/limited punishment - e.g. #Musk #DOGE destroyed #USAID which has already caused 700K deaths and millions more are expected. Who knows how much economic damage has been wrought. ALL OVER THE WORLD. Where is the process to hold the guilty accountable?


Not just Americans.

I maintain #doge will remain forever a stain on the #infosec and #systemadmin professions.

Physical compromise of sites was always the red line...
... And when the time came to deleting the drives and hiding the backups these "custodians" of #privacy and #security did nothing (with very, very few attempts).

They literally let the looters get away with the loot.

Shame!


To dramatically increase the amount of energy available to power artificial intelligence, the Trump administration is rewriting thousands of pages of nuclear power regulations while downplaying safety issues and focusing on industry incentives.

Black women were disproportionately affected by the Trump administration and DOGE's cuts to federal agencies. For Hammer and Hope, Natalie Y. Moore spoke to four of them about how things are now. “I hate that Black women have been forced into resiliency. We’ve been forced into being strong. We’ve been forced into being waymakers. We are not afforded that same soft landing [white people enjoy], said Jenniqual Johnson, who worked for the Department of Agriculture on giving equitable access to the USA's forests.

Tja - und wir füttern es. #ReedElsevier war einer der ersten Investoren in #Palantir, man arbeitet bis heute eng zusammen, so wie #ThomsonReuters auch. Der CEO von #LexisNexis war des Lobes voll für #DOGE, das müsse man bei allen Bundesstaaten auch machen. Als #Informationsinfrastrukturen wissen wir doch, dass Informationen eine Waffe sein können, aber einen glaubhaften Weg ins Freie haben wir immer noch nicht.

Another DOGE Bro Explains How He Flagged 'DEI' Grants for Termination

Yeah, we've been watching hours of these depositions at [404 Media](404media.co), and we'll have more soon. For now, here's some context.

This is Nathan Cavanaugh, a DOGE staffer assigned to the General Services Administration who, alongside another DOGE member named Justin Fox, was tasked with identifying grants for review for termination at the National Endowment for the… #trump #lies #politics #news #DOGE



...ein Problem darstellen können, weil die #SocialMedia-Posts nicht mehr (völlig) gelöscht werden können, insbesondere die Fotos.

#Datenspuren mit dem #Klarnamen sind aus meiner Sicht heute generell gefährlich. Sie sollten, soweit es irgendwie geht, vermieden werden. Auch im Geschäftsverkehr mit Behörden ist dies essentiell, da immer mehr Staaten nach rechts rücken.

Am Beispiel der #USA und #ElonMusks digitaler Kettensäge durch das #DOGE konnten wir alle beobachten,...

TRUMP CORRUPTION!

DOGE Promised $2 Trillion in Savings — "$1,335 Per Taxpayer."

Independent Audits found $1 to $7 Billion in Real Savings.

CBO Says the Cuts May Have Actually Cost the Government $21.7 Billion!

Leute haben #Epstein-Akten ent-zensiert, weil - inzwischen ein Klassiker - die Zensurbalken die Informationen nicht entfernt haben.
https://www.reddit.com/r/de/comments/1pwzc8o/dokumente_über_sexualstraftäter_user_entfernen/

Aber das Beste kommt noch: Das dürfte wohl daran liegen, dass das #DOGE-Ministerium (einst unter #Musk geführt Anti-Bürokratie- und Kürzungsbehörde) die #Adobe #Acrobat Lizenzen gekürzt hat und die richtige Zensurfunktion dann fehlte.

#Enshitification und Inkompetenz par excelleance. Sowas kannste dir echt nicht ausdenken. 😂😂🫠


Back when #DOGE starting firing thousands for no reason, I explained to a friend:

"They're trying to prove we don't need government, and for the few things we DO need government for, those things can be #Privatized."

When they #Shutdown the government, I made the point again.

Defunding medical research is just the latest extension of this extreme RW push to #privatize everything. 🤬

Seen thru that lens, it all starts to make sense.


The purpose of a system is what it does.

The purpose of the #DOGE system was exactly what it did:
dismantle critical governmental and social infrastructure,
and steal as much personal data of as many US-Americans as possible.
Its purpose was never anything else.

#TPoSIWID


The untold damage done by #DOGE may never be realized. They stole (and broke) everything with complete impunity. @georgetakei

DOGE hat Daten zu allen Menschen in den USA in die Cloud kopiert

Ach, was kann dabei schon schiefgehen? 🤷‍♂️
Was für ein Wahnsinn.

Angestellte der vormals von Elon Musk geleiteten US-Regierungsorganisation DOGE haben im Juni eine äußerst sensible Datenbank mit Sozialversicherungsdaten zu so gut wie allen Menschen in den Vereinigten Staaten auf einen ungeschützten Cloud-Server gestellt.
