Court document reveals that the USGS Ecosystems Mission Area would be cut severely, and maybe entirely, along with critical natural resource management staff. This would be devastating for our public lands!
“The Monday filing outlines where 2,050 positions would be eliminated; the U.S. Geological Survey, the Bureau of Land Management, and the main Interior office would be especially hard hit. Regional offices with the National Park Service are also targeted for significant cuts.”

Kristi Noem and Kash Patel were out last night enjoying the Las Vegas F1 race at taxpayers’ expense. This is exactly the kind of fraud, waste, and abuse that deserves a full investigation.

Weather is ridiculously nice here in South Dakota so hubs and I went for a hike this morning at Great Bear. They’ve been working on their trails, with about half the park acreage completed. The trails they’re creating are very nice.
BTW: it’s November 22nd and it was 53 degrees here. Craaaazy!

Oh the historical irony. Trump sent death threats against government officials who asked our troops to refuse illegal orders... on the 80th anniversary of the Nuremberg trials.

A female reporter asks Trump about Epstein. He says, “Quiet, piggy.”
When Khashoggi’s murder is brought up in his meeting with the Saudi Prince who had him killed (according to the CIA), Trump says, “Things happen.”
You have a monster at the helm, America. You are in terrible danger.
