I want to comment on a really ugly thing the FS Office of the Chief did today. Around 3:20 PM eastern; a snap e-mail announced our Forest Service reorganization. A snap meeting from 3:45 to 4 was presented— Chief’s first ever All Employee call. A link detailed certain USFS facilities to close.

Today is Holy Monday - the day Jesus threw the merchants and money changers out of the temple. He was incensed at them for commercialising a house of prayer. What would Jesus think of those "conservatives" who see religion as a way to spread hatred and make money?

~$750M in NATO-funded Ukraine support may be redirected by the U.S. (The Washington Post, Reuters). This isn’t “aid.” It’s allied-funded procurement. So what are the legal limits? ONEST Explained: www.onestnetwork.com/ukraine-fund...

This should be an impeachable offense. I understand that we’re way past any of that, but that shouldn’t stop us from naming it.

If you live somewhere with spring thaw, take extra care to watch for birds and avoid speeding. Melting snow uncovers winter roadkill, which brings birds like this eagle to do cleanup. It's a time of year we see even more car strikes than usual, & soon with birds doing extra duty feeding nestlings. 🪶

Ilya is the last puppy of his litter still at the shelter. he's also the only dog here who is fluent in Russian. skate on by today to meet him! 🐶
