It seems some ICE folks are doing it for the pleasure of it
anyway.

Feel very sorry for the National Guard folks, though.

As far as I understand, neither of these are being paid. No federal employees are—except members of Congress, of course. 🤬

As the spouse of a currently furloughed federal employee, I was already seething, but this makes my blood absolutely boil.

That military—who along with their families already sacrifice so much—are working without pay right now? Unconscionable.

BUT it also spurs me into action, thinking, “What one thing can I do today to help our planet? What about this week? This year? Longer term?”

Let painful moments spur you into action, lest we see more and more heartbreaks like this one.

Well, it's official. After our paper last year (onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....), the Slender-billed Curlew is officially declared Extinct today.
