BREAKING: Sen. Mike Lee is STILL trying to sell off public land. He just released a FOURTH version of his reconciliation language, and it keeps getting worse. It doesn't look like this version has been reviewed by the parliamentarian, but he's still trying.

Burgum just handed over the running of his agency to a DOGEr with no Senate confirmation and little apparent background beyond serving as an executive at an oil equipment company. Hassen can fire people, cancel contracts or make major policy decisions without Burgum’s approval. Hassen already put a career civil servant on administrative leave pending firing for raising concerns about the risks arising from Hassen’s request to have root access (not just viewing access) to Interior’s payroll system. The official made clear the final decision rested with Secretary Burgum: his crime appears to have been to put the risks in writing when DOGE wants as little accountability as possible.

Doug Burgum, the billionaire Secretary of the Interior (which includes the NPS) has completely delegated much of his job to Tyler Hassen, a DOGEr w no Senate confirmation. Hassen is already trying to fire career civil servants who raise concerns about privacy risks of his controlling personnel data.

🌎 This #EarthDay, we express our deep gratitude to the federal probationary employees who protect the environment and were illegally fired for doing so. Meanwhile, the leaders of our country have failed their probationary period.

Thank you to Cormac Ganshirt for the wonderful illustration! 👏
