"So it was families that had spent all day walking to a clinic in Sudan—you know, with the USAID logo on it—expecting to get food and medical supplies, seeing that clinic ends up being shuttered and were then forced to go home and then make the heart-wrenching decision of which of their children to feed."

That really personalized it. Imagine being the head of a household, trying to maintain morale and provide, trekking to get your supplies, and coming home empty-handed to your family because a man far away with hundreds of billions of dollars thought it was wasteful.

Infuriating.
