HARARE, Zimbabwe (AP) — In a pre-dawn raid in food-starved Zimbabwe, police enforcing a coronavirus lockdown confiscated and destroyed 3 tons of fresh fruit and vegetables by setting fire to it. Wielding batons, they scattered a group of rural farmers who had traveled overnight, breaking restrictions on movement to bring the precious produce to one of the country’s busiest markets.
Lockdowns without provisions to help the poor “may affect us very, very much,” said Lola Castro, regional director in southern Africa for the U.N. World Food Program.
Poor nations have already food insecurity and add to that is the food uncertainty during Covid-19 is NOT a good scenario. Those who can help should help…calling on you Billionaires!
Trump’s mere presence in this government will cause more deaths than any other human calamity besides WWII.
His egocentric actions are the worst possible for this time in Human History. Ignoramuses in the depths of Trump World are literally setting fire to the Planet
Wait…Africa is only the beginning. There’s also poorer nations in South America, Central America, Asia and the Middle East…let alone the millions of refugees. I dread the outcome for so many.
WH Spokesperson: “This Current Occupant is determined to end the decades and decades of gratuitous overseas spending that takes away the patrimony of hardworking gated community dwellers in this country and ships it off to all of these shithole countries under the guise of ‘foreign aid.’ It’s going to stop. It’s going to stop here. And it’s going to stop now. The others were too weak, too un-American to do anything about it, but not this Administration.This will be the greatest doubling down on cruelty anyone has ever seen. And you know what they’ll say years from now? ‘Your Current Occupant did that.’, they’ll say. And you’ll thank him for it”
Eric and Don Jr are already on it. After all, they’ve visited many African nations to murder endangered species, so they have the knowledge and the love of all the little people to help solve it for them.
