Gregg is a former Marine and Forest Service ranger. He's saved the lives of hikers dangling off a cliff or going through cardiac arrest, and he's bravely fought forest fires to save small rural towns.
100% of his salary is paid by WA state.
Elon fired him. Share his story.

Have not kept up with my nature journaling this week (because chaos and governmental collapse…) but I took a John Muir Laws “Sketching Birds” class to make up. This is why it’s a learned skill 😅, looking forward to practicing with feeder friends 🐦💚

There should be far more focus on the state of Musk's businesses, particularly his increasingly precarious auto business.
He's gone into the business of taking over the government for a (financial) reason.

Convo with my friend from Hungary tonight who left after Orban’s election.
She said “your head will spin with all the wild stuff they try to pull, new things every day, but don’t take your eyes off the money. It’s all about the money, and what they’re stealing, and for whom.”
