Of the six-person team, four lost their jobs, effective Friday. A fifth person may yet be reassigned to non-climate stories, my sources believed. National environment correspondent David Schechter kept his job.

How’s my Sunday? I’ve been traveling since last night. #Delta canceled my original 8 am flight and rebooked me in another one for two hours later. I only knew when I checked the Delta app at 5:30 a.m. A text would have been nice. I’m getting home in the mid-afternoon now.

This is why we don't have immigration reform. Take a look at the proposed fees:
- a minimum $1,000 asylum application fee
- a $1,000 fee for parolees
- $3,500 fee for unaccompanied children sponsors
The "right way" costs money. It always has.
