@wilderness.org doing good work with this map.

Really puts the Senate’s public lands fire sale in perspective.

Senator Ted Cruz posted a dramatic video of LAPD cars on fire with the caption β€œthis… is… not… peaceful.” What he didn’t mention? The footage was from 2020, not 2025. His post on X falsely implied it was current, part of a broader effort to spread lies and manufacture a crisis.

The deployment of federalized National Guard troops to California, without consent from local or state officials, is deeply troubling. These are tactics seen in authoritarian regimes, not in America. We want to be clear, the military should not be used to police civilians.

How is it other emergency response agencies (USDA, DOI wildfire response included) had immediate spending restrictions under the new admin and ICE is allowed to blow through their budget? Turn off their gov charge cards already.

Please read, this is important. Sorry it’s long.

Trump’s move to have Elon Musk step aside wasn’t a retreat. It was a distraction. With Musk’s name out of the headlines, many assumed the controversial Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) had quietly ended. It hasn’t. It’s just changed hands.

When a Government is scientifically illiterate, but doesn’t know it, then its actions (or inactions) can be a recipe for the dismantling of an informed and enlightened Democracy.
