In the wake of the second round of buyouts, the Fish and Wildlife Service as a whole is “pretty gutted,” according to the source.
“Moving ahead with even more cuts, I can’t imagine,” the employee said. “It’s going to be incredibly difficult to function.”

Textbook fascism. This corrupt, exploitive regime must be stopped.
Trump is trying to fix the rules so he gets to rule forever; following the authoritarian playbook to the letter:
- harass or co-opt the press
- weaken the lawyers
- silence universities and student protest
- cut off funding for the opposition
But we won’t let him win.

This is an obvious attempt to weaken the ESA to open critical habitat areas to resource exploitation by the world-consuming business interests this corrupt administration serves - short term profit for a few in exchange for unimaginable loss for potentially generations of the global community.

"It’s time for a comprehensive national civic uprising. It’s time for Americans in universities, law, business, nonprofits and the scientific community, and civil servants and beyond to form one coordinated mass movement.”
The view from the right
Conservative condemnation of the Trump regime is almost as vehement as is progressive condemnation. Will they give cover to business leaders who have so far remained silent?

“We yet cling to the hope that it is not naïve to believe our good brethren in the Executive Branch perceive the rule of law as vital... This case presents their unique chance to vindicate that value and to summon the best that is within us while there is still time.”
