Trump signed executive orders to expand logging on public lands while bypassing environmental protections. His “energy emergency” declaration lets him override regulations entirely.

“The massive reduction in staff at FEMA will have dangerous ripple effects for communities across the country,” said Shana Udvardy, senior climate resilience policy analyst at UCS. “At a time when FEMA staff is low capacity, this is going in the wrong direction.”

I don't think the Dems can stop the firings. But why aren't they proposing legislation that assures those that took the buyout get paid , and that all that are fired, get at least a year severance and health benefits? And any one with a health condition is covered the entire time they are sick?

The National Park Service fired many of its park rangers as part of a reduction in the federal work force. Some rangers decided it was worth the risk to speak out online about the cuts and share their love of the Park Service.

“It’s scary, but it was the right thing to do.”

The Trump administration is attacking scientific integrity by unlawfully seizing control of NOAA, the agency that monitors and issues weather alerts. Juan Declet-Barreto explains the far-reaching consequences if these plans under #Project2025 move forward.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was confirmed to lead the Department of Health & Human Services. The U.S. Senate has betrayed the American people, approving a dangerous conspiracy theorist with no scientific training who is obsessed with unfounded health claims to be our nation’s voice on public health.

We are watching in real time why Jesus said we can’t worship both God and money.

Paul Martin, the inspector general for the USAID, has been fired after resisting the administration. Just a day ago, his office released a report warning that staff reductions and spending freezes put hundreds of millions in taxpayer dollars at risk of misuse and waste. This is the way.

One of these days we're gonna have to reckon with the fact that "money that I spend which does not directly benefit me is a waste" is a popular sentiment.

I think we should state plainly that this is selfish on its face.

And stupid when you have awareness which extends beyond your nose.

While Trump has been distracting America with everything else, Elon Musk’s staffers are quietly taking over NOAA and the Department of Labor. They are also using AI to help rewrite a significant portion of the federal government’s computer systems.
