The latest WHO bulletin on outbreaks says Ebola and Marburg have been ruled out, leaving researchers with an unidentified disease rapidly killing people in the DRC.
In related news, Trump has been flip-flopping on WHO like a slippery, slimy catfish gasping for air: simultaneously exiting and entering WHO in a superposition of self-interest, world suffering be damned.
This isn’t policy—it’s destruction of institutional credibility to replace it with a vacuum so devoid of intelligence only an air-pumping orange-faced charlatan can thrive: rapidly pivoting towards whatever enriches a Trump personal portfolio. Each contradictory pronouncement serves to exhaust attention, dismantling all governance towards quick illegitimate private gain. American corruption is ruthless, ugly scandal after scandal turning backwards into systemic imperialist-racist exploitation so brazen, so normalized that it becomes a policy of perpetual chaos. Trump is institutionalized corruption — rotating positions constantly, however contradictory — for a singular outcome of self-enrichment. The rest is only distraction from his relentless extraction of value, leaving the world poorer and worse off, if not rapidly killed from negligence.
