During the latest episode of The Joe Rogan Experience podcast, U2 frontman Bono made some absurd claims about DOGE cuts to USAID, highlighting what he claimed were the devastating consequences of abruptly halting foreign aid programs.
Bono sounded the alarm over what he called a “hard cut” to American international aid, claiming the consequences have already turned deadly. “Just [a] recent report—it’s not proven—but the surveillance enough suggests 300,000 people have already died from just this cutoff,” he said, referencing the global food shortages tied to the funding freeze.
