- TurdF3rguson 2mo agoThey've only been billionaires for a couple years. These things take time.
- behnamoh 2mo agoI'm curious, is this true or something you heard from MSM and regurgitated?
- brokencode 2mo agoAs opposed to what? Going down to Africa to count the bodies myself? Of course I read about it in the media. And there are articles from Harvard, UCLA, and others that say the same thing
- grosswait 2mo agoFormer beneficiaries of USAID funds created some studies you say?
- brokencode 2mo agoYup, the destitute and dying are famous for their highly publicized research.

- jeremyjh 2mo agoSo you think a malaria prevention program can be canceled without notice and no one will die from that? The only people who believe that do not believe in anything. They think there is no such thing as competence or honesty because they have never experienced it.
- declan_roberts 2mo agoThat's not true. I believe firmly the American taxpayer and government is responsible for the lives of every single person in the world.
- jeremyjh 2mo agoWe were responsible for providing notice and a transition period when we stopped paying for it. We didn't have to pay for it, and they didn't have to die. But we have an administration that can't plan a pool party.
- ransom1538 2mo agoNo it was more. In Brazil, 4 billion people died -- just one night without poetry jams.
- brokencode 2mo agoSure, let’s make jokes about the poor dying of malaria and AIDS. You sound like a Grok power user.
- ransom1538 2mo agoLol. I thought you were joking too! But you sound like a Gemini Power user!
- brokencode 2mo agoNo you didn’t, and that’s not much of an insult.
