Summary
The Trump administration has canceled 90% of USAID’s foreign aid contracts, including critical programs that provide lifesaving therapeutic food to malnourished children.
Mana Nutrition’s CEO reports that ready-to-ship boxes of peanut paste that could save approximately 300,000 children are now stranded in a Georgia warehouse.
Despite Secretary of State Rubio’s claims that “lifesaving humanitarian assistance” would be spared, numerous essential health programs have been terminated, including those preventing diseases like polio, HIV, and Ebola.
These cuts contradict claims about targeting “wokeness” or “waste,” instead showing a reckless abandonment of America’s global humanitarian commitments.
I don’t think the title could be any more clickbaity.

Yeah I had to downvote it on the principal of clickbait articles.
It’s the title of the article. The person posting the article here didn’t chose the article title. They could have found an alternative source with a better headline, but if we start doing that we’re going to miss out on some important news because some people are lazy or some news isn’t covered everywhere, I’m guessing.
