The market has lost all the gains made since Trump was elected. Well that didn’t take long. Thanks Mr Trump for making my retirement savings NOT great again.

USAID informed employees via email that it is terminating 2,000 workers and placing thousands of foreign service officers and other direct hires worldwide on paid leave, effective tonight.

Small protest reaching a lot of people. We stood at the bottom of Big Cottonwood canyon when people were headed home from skiing. Lots of friendly honks and thumbs up. CALL your senators and reps and tell them to demand that Trump reinstate fired National Park Service workers!!!

Trump fires two top military officials (a black man and a woman - both with strong resumes) claiming they were originally f”hired because of their skin color and gender. Why do you think Trump appointed Defense Secretary Hegseth (white, male, Trump propagandist) was hired?

Do you love national parks? Call your Reps and demand they reinstate the unwarranted firing of National Park Service rangers. The loss of these workers, coming to this already understaffed and underfunded agency, is wreaking havoc.

Demand that National Park workers who were fired by Trump be reinstated! Join us on Sunday in Salt Lake City at the location below with a sign to call for restoring national park jobs! We are asking people to call their elected representatives.

Folks distraught over Trump’s assault on democracy packed UT Repub Celeste Maloy’s town hall to express consternation over DOGE, firings, dismantling health, educ & housing programs, tax cuts for the rich, eviscerating nat’l monuments, acceding King-like power to Trump, abandoning Ukraine and more.

DOGE recommended firing workers at:

-FDA, which oversees Neuralink

-FAA, which oversees SpaceX

-USAID, which probed Starlink

-CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X.

"Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

The massive firings across federal agencies will cripple their ability to do critical work that keeps us safe and enrich our lives. Just reading about cuts at FAA and FEMA. And of course the NPS and USFS. It also destroys people’s lives. And this is the attitude of the man wielding the sword.
February 20, 2025 at 4:28 PM
Essential listening. Real people whose work makes our lives safer and better are being FIRED WITH NO REVIEW OR CAUSE. This is NOT about efficiency. It’s about dismantling any part of the federal work force that Trump sees as in the way of his agenda. It’s intimidation, assertion of power, cruelty.

If you are unhappy with what is happening, attend Rep Maloy’s town hall!!! This is a rare chance to register your opinion! Don’t pass it up. I’ll be passing out “I disagree” signs you can hold up if you like. Better yet ask her a question. You can submit one in advance on her website.

Want to go visit the national parks this year?
Sorry.
The reservation system is shut down, EMT personnel are gone, so don't get hurt or lost. No one can clean the bathrooms or cabins, so they'll be closed. Rangers are fired.
