FILE- Flying a bare 100 feet above the jungle hills west of Hue, 5 bulky 'C-123 providers' cut loose a spray of chemical defoliant on August 14, 1968. The chemicals used burn off heavy foliage hiding enemy infiltrations routes and base camps. The aircraft are specially equipped with huge 1,000 gallon tanks holding 11,000 lbs. of herbicide. To hit their target areas they fly barely above the tree tops and in tight formation. In particularly dangerous areas they are provided with fighter-bomber escorts. (AP Photo/Robert Ohman, File)

“We’ve worked in autocratic regimes our whole life. Keeping your head down doesn’t work,” says Drew Sullivan, co-founder of @occrp.org, an international nonprofit news outlet and network of investigative journalists. “You have to fight these things when they’re unfair, when they’re illegal, and you have to fight them aggressively."

He talked to Nieman Lab's Hanaa' Tameez about his organization's decision to sue the Trump administration, challenging the legality of Donald Trump's executive order to freeze international aid funding.

Peru received $135 million in USAID funding in 2024. Much was for projects combating narcotics and gold trafficking, which are now linked. But substantial contributions were also made in areas ranging from democratic governance to minority rights. #USAID #peru #Trafficking

3M FOREIGN CHILDREN WILL BE DEAD.

3 weeks ago the Trump admin CXL all of its upcoming orders -everything beyond those old orders that were previously reinstated. The move reneged on an AGT to provide about 3M children with emergency paste💔 over approx the next year. The admin hasn't awarded sep contracts to shipping cos., leaving much of the food assured by the original reinstated contracts🚨stuck in the US.
