The entire permanent staff of the Division of Environmental Health Science and Practice was laid off. This division addresses issues such as asthma and air pollution, climate change and health, childhood lead poisoning, and cancer clusters.

If you think this can’t happen, remember that of the 125,000 Japanese Americans who were interned during WWII for years without charge or trial, two-thirds were U.S. citizens. Including me.

There are 33m companies in the USA. Only 21k employe 500 or more. And they only make up 23% of workers.

Trump and Elon are ignoring the more than 32m entrepreneurs that can't afford to build a new factory or pay tariffs or absorb cancelled contracts.

The US agency that monitors weather will cut another 1,000 jobs, AP sources say Multiple sources tell The Associated Press that the Trump Administration is starting another round of job cuts β€” this one more than 1,000 β€” at the nation’s weather, ocean and fisheries agency.

Trump is slashing another 1,000 jobs at NOAA.

The National Weather Service, which is part of NOAA, provides life saving weather forecasting in the US.

A study found that for every $1 invested in NWS, it produces $73 in value to Americans.Β 

Again, this isn't about efficiency.

Thats a great example about how the market manipulation and THREATS of tariffs are impacting things. Tariffs will take weeks, months and years to see real impact. Its almost glacial change that the real direct impacts of tariffs are. Major capitol changes. This is just the THREAT.
