GoKawiilDocumentary filmmaker says Musk's USAID cuts caused hundreds of thousands of child deaths
In a new interview, filmmaker Alex Gibney, director of the documentary 'Musk,' said Musk's abrupt dismantling of USAID led to roughly 500,000 child deaths within a year, citing data tied to a 2025 Lancet study estimating up to 14 million deaths overall by 2030 from the funding freeze. Gibney called the cuts 'a crime against humanity' and rebuked Musk for joking that he 'put USAID into the woodchipper.'
