“A Tide of Suffering and Death:” NYT’s Nicholas Kristof on Musk’s USAID Cuts

Season 2025 Episode 7189 | 18m 07s

A federal judge has halted the shutdown of USAID following relentless efforts by Elon Musk's DOGE to slash the agency's resources. Musk insists that no lives were lost from the pause in foreign aid. But New York Times Opinion columnist Nicholas Kristof reports otherwise. Kristof speaks to Hari Sreenivasan about the harrowing picture in Kenya and Sudan after USAID supply lines were cut.
