Oh, things are much,much worse than this! However I’m glad that FINALLY people are starting to wake up! Just wait until someone realizes what happened to FEMA. In the words of a friend/old colleague that is holding on to her current FEMA job for dear life: “People WILL die!”.

First day as a “civilian” after a 30 year career with the feds. This feels so surreal, but after the shock wears off, I’m realizing that my handcuffs are also off after all these years. We served the public no matter the administration, until now. Ultimately, it is the public that will suffer.

Today I left the South Building at USDA for the last time in my almost 30 year career. I’m not gonna lie, I didn’t do it with dry eyes. Saying goodbye to so many intelligent, talented and extremely dedicated colleagues is right up there as one of the toughest things I’ve done in my life.

This is the best list of actions I’ve seen to date! open.substack.com/pub/thewhite...
Thirty lonely but beautiful actions you can take right now which probably won't magically catalyze a mass movement against Trump but that are still wildly important

And this is why the Climate Hubs exist! To help our nation’ agriculture and forestry producers understand what that means to THEM, and help them become more resilient to these changes and give them the opportunity to help reduce the impact on the rest of us.
Ronny Chieng explained climate change on the Daily Show a year ago and it remains as relevant as ever!
