DOGE killed half a million people by cutting USAID food programs

 By late 2025, models from researchers at Boston University, led by epidemiologist Brooke Nichols, estimated that the suspension of USAID programs had contributed to roughly 300,000 to over 600,000 deaths worldwide, with a significant portion being children.

The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has initiated massive, controversial cuts to the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), effectively dismantling it in early 2025 by placing thousands of staffers on leave and terminating foreign aid programs
