Killing people through omission.

 

The DOGE lead cuts on USAID, which ended up in eliminating the entity for all practical purposes, have lead to at least 300,000 deaths around the globe.

And now Robert Kennedy, who is a quack in terms of medicine, vaccines, and diet, has announced that the United States won’t contribute anymore to Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, until the global health organization has “re-earned the public trust".

Tucker "Lord Haw Haw" Carlson on Leadership.

Carlson, as an apologist for the vile, has crossed into territories heretofore not trespassed onto.  Lindbergh and Fr. Coughlin would be aghast.

Tucker Carlson: Leadership requires killing people

Carlson is becoming the embodiment of Yeoman's Twentieth Rule of Behavior, or as Jimmy Akin would say, "sin makes you stupid".  He's gone from being sort of a political shock d.j., to just flat out saying stuff that's stupid.

Carlson lies, and he knows he's a liar.  Lying is sinful.  His audience likes being lied to. Self-delusion is also sinful in some instances, particularly in believing slanderous lies.  Carlson's lies have made himself, and frankly his audience, increasingly stupid.

The question is how darned dumb can this get before even his followers have had too much.
