There's an important point here that I'm not sure everyone is fully appreciating. People still in their probationary periods took their career positions because *they were committed to doing the work of keeping the government humming regardless of who won this or any other election.*
This comment on r/fednews really stood out to me. Trump and Musk want people to think they're firing do-nothing "bureaucrats," but they're really getting rid of people dedicated to serving this country and keeping it operational. I hope these stories get told.

It would be a mistake to think that everyone experiencing the worsening impacts of climate change will suddenly accept what needs to happen to arrest it. Misinformation and conspiracy theories will be deployed to muddy the waters as much as possible - looking at the comments in the US, it's working

Moving on to THE CONTROL OF NATURE, which details the Old River Control Structure that ensures 70% of the Mississippi's water goes to NOLA & 30% goes to Cajun Country
Built in 1963, w/o it the Mississippi's path to the sea would switch to the Atchafalaya, leaving NOLA without a river (or port)
