The EPA plans to demote career employees and replace them with political appointees, which would give Trump administration loyalists more influence over aspects of the agency that were traditionally led by nonpartisan experts.
E.P.A. Demotes Career Employees Overseeing Science, Enforcement and More
A spokeswoman for the agency said the change was “common practice.” Others said it injects partisanship into jobs that have always been neutral.

Again: Trump just ordered 2 dams open to levels that would’ve flooded areas and farms, without warning, all to back up the lies he told about the fires — and the rivers don’t even flow to LA.

The Trump administration fired the commandant of the U.S. Coast Guard, Adm. Linda Fagan, within 24 hours of President Trump’s inauguration. The admiral, who was sworn in as the service chief on June 1, 2022, was the first female officer to lead a branch of the U.S. armed forces.

A lot of people are asking, “What can we do to protect our parks from being destroyed by the Trump admin?” Let’s be honest, the next four years are going to be tough. Just like the first term, we anticipate a relentless assault on the environment-maybe even worse, now that lessons were learned. 1/4

Inspiring story of Mary McGee, the first person and only woman to ride the Baja 500 solo, and on a motorcycle no less! “Racing was never just about competition for me—it was about freedom, courage, and pushing myself beyond limits.” So many great quotes in the documentary from this wise woman.
