Trump: "Chicago about to find out why it's called the Department of WAR"

This is frankly one of the worst things Donald Trump has ever posted, which is really saying something

Prominent Everglades Scientist Prepares for Jail Amid Bitter Legal Dispute with Former Employer - Inside Climate News Tom Van Lent is accused of stealing “trade secrets” from the influential Everglades Foundation. He says the foundation has mounted a politically motivated smear campaign.

Yes, they are jailing a longtime #Florida Everglades scientist today. On dubious charges. The case is about revenge politics against scientific studies that craven leaders don't want to conflict with their greenwashing "restoration" story. insideclimatenews.org/news/1707202...

Everglades are essential for Florida's survival. Alligator Alcatraz will harm them. | Opinion President Donald Trump and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis are ignoring how vital the Everglades are to Florida's public health and economy.

National parks were America’s best idea.
This detention center in the Everglades is one of America’s WORST.
More on the impact and why @foreverglades.bsky.social and @biologicaldiversity.org are suing to stop it.

'Alligator Alcatraz': Florida Attorney General proposes immigrant detention center in Everglades If approved, Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier told Fox Business, it would become the state’s largest immigration detention facility.

If DeSantis allows this "Alligator Alcatraz" to be built, he will lose any shred of Everglades credibility he once had. This is the site of the defeated Everglades Jetport, surrounded by wetlands. Marjory Stoneman Douglas founded @foreverglades.bsky.social in 1969 to protect this very site.

Indigenous Tribes Should Be More Involved in Everglades Restoration, Report Says - Inside Climate News For Florida’s Native American tribes, the watershed is sacred. A new National Academies report says the federal and state agencies guiding Everglades restoration can learn a lot from them.

“We have to pair these big earth-moving restoration projects with a meaningful regulatory system that is going to ensure that we have the right water quality and that we’re properly regulating polluters so that the system can thrive and these projects can work.”
