"National Parks Service employee shares sad message on being fired abruptly"
"Many were terminated yesterday in a huge unprecedented move. Figured I would share a Ranger’s thoughts from the National Monument in my hometown, where I have so many memories. Just heartbreaking."

I hope folks understand what’s happening here. Some in the administration view concentration camps inside the US as *maybe* a bridge too far.
So they’re starting with Guantanamo Bay, away from prying eyes and 24/7 coverage.

The Washington Post calls January 6 and the events leading up to it "election-reversal efforts." It has gotten Orwellian over there.
I will say again, support independent, pro-democracy media.

The members of the Washington opinion glitterati can be counted on to zero in on all Democratic errors and write long articles about where they’ve gone wrong. But it’s all shoulder shrug admiration for a President and party that supported a Capitol attacking insurrection four years ago tomorrow.

If you want to understand why healthcare pricing is horrific, the first thing to know is that our system puts 100% of the credit risk for deductibles, copays and co-insurance on hospitals and doctors. That's insane.

Two years ago today we were awarded the Congressional Gold Medal for protecting The US Capitol on January 6th 2021. Almost 4 years later the efforts to downplay, whitewash and minimize what happened appear to be succeeding. I won't ever stop standing up to them.
