Why It Matters
This investigation is an attempt to dismantle Biden-era climate initiatives under the pretense of financial oversight. By using law enforcement to target climate funding, the Trump administration is leveraging the legal system for political gain.

All employees of the U.S. Dept. of Education have gotten two emails today offering $25k buyouts ahead of a "very significant reduction in force." The first was sent early today and then disappeared from inboxes minutes later. Another just came through. They have until 11:59 p.m. Monday to decide.
