How did the changing definitions of "lifesaving" aid and the instability of USAID staffing contribute to the failure to provide timely assistance?

Enrich's memo highlights a systemic failure within USAID, the State Department, and DOGE, where political appointees created obstacles preventing the release of funds for crucial humanitarian aid. This resulted in a failure to provide timely responses to emergencies like the Ebola outbreak in Uganda, despite receiving approval a month prior. The actions directly contradict public statements, demonstrating a significant lack of transparency and coordination.
