@BjornFjord01 @mikenelson586 Also, Foreign Service Officers are still disproportionately white. About 76% white and 24% minorities as of 2020, according to this table published by the Gov't Accountability Office. FSO means Foreign Service Officer; All FS, I assume, includes Foreign Service Generalists.

@BjornFjord01 @mikenelson586 @StateDept Many people have been on board for years before AI came along. And the application process is (or was) pretty brutal for State Department Foreign Service Officers. You don't just apply. Multiple steps: Tests, interviews, exercises with other applicants, strict clearance process.

@Mimikyuse @BjornFjord01 @mikenelson586 @StateDept Foreign service officers have to be American citizens. Your comment doesn't make sense. Of course, they're stationed elsewhere. They work in our Embassies.

@AndrewSinc @Andie00471 There are a few steps (drying, hulling, sorting) between the harvesting of the bean and what gets exported, and that will also require some processing that most coffee exporters would not be used to doing. An old story from USAID that still survives. https://t.co/yaVxMskgKm

@WorldHallOfFun @DOGE @NIH This information is false. USAID did not spend these amounts at these media organizations. Either the funding came from other organizations and/or the amounts from USAID were much smaller and were for subscription services (to follow media for their own internal media management)

@RebelLiberty5 @maddenifico Your math doesn’t add up to me. $880 billion is a little more than half (55%) of $1.6 trillion. Where do you get 5.5%? You know they are asking for $880 BILLION in cuts not $880 MILLION, correct?

My last day at USAID Uganda. Mine was a planned departure, but the last month has been crushing for my friends and dedicated colleagues. Their work made America safer. saved lives, strengthened economies, and created good will among the global community. #FromtheAmericanPeople

I'm working with @USAID #Uganda for a few months, and it's been great to catch up on the biodiversity and community-based and community-owned work USAID supports. This story from one of USAID's partners highlights the Rurambira Community Conservancy.

Managing forests is about much more than trees and timber! #ForestsAndInnovation

Exciting news: Uganda's veterinary labs in Mbale & Queen Elizabeth National Park have been recommended for ISO accreditation by the South African National Accreditation System. Congrats @IDDS_Project @USAIDUganda @MinofHealthUG @ugwildlife @MAAIF_Uganda! https://t.co/wRXfAju0ZF

[IARC @IARCWHO]

#LungCancer was the most commonly occurring cancer worldwide in 2022 with 2.5 million new cases, almost 1 in 8 of all new #cancer cases.
Female #BreastCancer, estimated to be the most common cancer in 2020, ranked 2nd with 2.3 million cases.

Always a lot of well-presented information to explore here.

@meksHQ I need help with the Trawell theme, and none of the contact links in your website seem to work (on my laptop or on my cell phone). How can I receive support?

[Nadine Sunderland @nadinesun]

@Cartman583 @DrJenCaudle Honey? The article discredits the faulty comparison. I also take my Associated Press over Fox News any day.
