In a letter to Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Attorney General Pam Bondi dated Tuesday, Democratic Senators Elizabeth Warren and Jack Reed requested an investigation by December 1 into World Liberty Financial's compliance with anti-money laundering rules, sanctions, and governance.

DT Marks DEFI LLC, controlled by Donald Trump and his family, holds 22.5 billion tokens and receives 75% of sales revenue, while the project lists Trump family members in prominent roles; World Liberty Financial maintains it has robust compliance measures with no evidence of wrongdoing.

In February 2025, Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, leading the Department of Government Efficiency, slashed USAID contracts worth tens of billions, paused operations, and cut 1,600 staff, folding much into the State Department. Critics cite modeled estimates of millions of deaths by 2030 from halted aid like vaccines and food, with one post by Mohamad Safa drawing 22,000 likes by comparing the toll to Gaza's 45,000 and Ukraine's 600 child deaths. Defenders call USAID wasteful, with only 10-30 cents per dollar reaching recipients, while courts have ruled parts of the cuts unconstitutional and DOGE has since disbanded.

Key Takeaway

One year after Elon Musk called USAID cuts feeding the agency into a 'woodchipper,' a post claims those moves have killed more children than in Gaza and Ukraine combined.

Civil rights group AfriForum launched a court challenge declaring South Africa's National Health Insurance Act unconstitutional, serving summons on Wednesday to President Cyril Ramaphosa, Health Minister Dr. Aaron Motsoaledi, the finance minister, and the National Assembly speaker.

Outside a graffiti-covered abandoned hospital, AfriForum served court summons on President Ramaphosa and top officials, warning of a healthcare future gone wrong.
