California’s funding from the U.S. Department of Agriculture for Local Food Purchase Assistance (LFPA) has been completely terminated for next year.

This irrational slashing of funds and other cuts will not only hurt our farmers but also the families who need food banks and school meals to thrive.

Clearing up probationary employees info:

FWS got notification that all probationary employees will be able to return to their positions.

They will be working, not on administrative leave (moving forward).

Admin leave is being granted for the time that has lapsed and until they can return to duty.

Truth!
Do you know why rural and working people are listening to Walz and AOC and Bernie?

Because they tell the damn truth. Because they are passionate about people. Because they are authentic. Because they care.

They are the new face of the opposition.

For over 80 years, Voice of America delivered news to countries—many under authoritarian rule—where reliable information was scarce. Now, those broadcasts, once a vital tool for promoting democracy and transparency, are fading away.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general.

If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.
