One year in, Doug Burgum’s tenure at the Department of the Interior has been an unmitigated disaster. He’s sabotaged wind energy development across the East Coast, he’s all but ignored historic fires in National Parks, he’s endeavored to censor &redefine history on public lands. tinyurl.com/3vfvnxmx

In his confirmation hearings, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told U.S. senators that he would not cut funding for vaccine research or change the nation's official vaccine recommendations. He did both. n.pr/46QDn9p
