" #Doge cut off funding for a group of #Yale University researchers...
known as the #Humanitarian Research Lab, & they were helping to find & return #Ukrainian children deported to #Russia.
...they have accumulated a database of 35,000 #children"
"researched the use of blockchain in #humanitarian work, says that #blockchain technologies... offer no obvious advantages over other tools organizations could use, such as an existing payments system or another #database tool. “There’s no proven advantage that it’s cheaper or better,” he says. “The way it’s been presented is this #tech solutionist approach that has been proven over and over again to not have any substantial impact in reality”"

#Trump said to be revoking #humanitarian parole protections for 503,000 Cubans, Haitians, Venezuelans and Nicaraguans. The humanitarian parole was a #Biden initiative. Those effected will have until April 24 to leave the US https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c33706jy774o
This is what real heroes and humanitarians do. I am proud of my fellow Marines for saving this civilian wounded and stranded in the California desert.

Thank you in Ukrainian
I’m on my way back to America and I want to say thank you to Lviv Volunteer Kitchen, Ants Kitchen Hub, and Kitty Pechersk for the opportunity to be of service to the people of #Ukraine. It was also great to visit and support the Cats on Mars shelter for kitties from the frontlines.
I will continue to be a voice for Ukraine's strength and beauty, reminding the world of the ongoing need for support across the country.

The work on the #abducted #children by the #Yale School of #PublicHealth #Humanitarian #Research Lab was frozen when #Trump signed an #ExecutiveOrder in late January halting almost all #ForeignAid. Since then, #MarcoRubio & an official under him, #PeteMarocco, have ended the vast majority of foreign #aid contracts, including the one to the Yale lab.
