6. This is consistent with the Trumpian policy of killing black and brown people.

Instead of distributing all the stockpiles of food that were purchased for the USAID program, they are just going to burn it. This is just too despicable for words.
Starvation is a terrible way to die. Unfortunately, the people who did this will eat well today, sleep in a warm, dry bed, and continue on with their lives tomorrow as if nothing horrible is happening in those areas where the food was supposed to be distributed.
And millions of Americans will continue on with their lives, either oblivious to the carnage, or uncaring.
