Beautiful story by @byalexcoffey .“My vision is hearing the kids out there, laughing and playing. And I just hope the boys will be able to hear it, and be able to see it, somehow. And think, ‘This is what my parents and my sisters did for us.’”.

USAID IG Paul Martin was fired tonight by White House. Comes a day after his office released report saying USAID lost ability to track & monitor more than $8B in unspent aid & risked spoiling $500M in US grown food aid as a result of Trump’s changes to agency. @bensiegel @wsteaks.

One current USAID official who spoke is based in Asia and is pregnant. She broke down in tears on the call, explaining how she doesn't know what is going to happen to her family, worried that the administration is going to "abandon" her overseas or back in the U.S.
