I mean. You have to give it to them. They are really going all in on destroying anything that actually made America great.

I’m not sure if that was the original goal, or even the intent now, but even with how terrible this news is, if the goal is to systematically dismantle a country, these guys are very very good at it.

Shout out to my wife's uncle, the nature photographer who loves hiking and nature and voted for this chode to stop the woke mind virus. How's that going bud?

I wouldn't call this a meme. It is fucking horrible news though

one man should not be allowed to hand America's assets to his cronies and sidekicks

Yeah great, let’s put the logging industry in charge of the forests. Who cares about research projects when you’re going to cut down all the fucking trees anyway.

This is so outrageous that I find it hard to believe. The cost of the entire US Forest Service must be minuscule, especially if you compare it to cost of waging unnecessary, illegal, and unethical wars all over the planet.

I FUCKING HATE THIS COUNTRY.

In retrospect we probably shouldn't have let a paedophile destroy the country.

Even if Trump hadn’t raped children, being the exact opposite of Teddy Roosevelt would make him among the worst American presidents.

The child-raping thing makes it considerably worse btw.

It’s such a shame. The US had such an exemplary park system, and now I anticipate the days where they bulldoze Yellowstone for a community of golf course condos that advertise their hot spring spa.

I hope the employees steal the data on the way out and give them to a university or some entity who can save them.

But why destroy the research?

Not so fun fact: Forest fires over last 6 years have made global forests net carbon emitters instead of sinks.

This makes me rationally livid.

Was this a condition of the Iranian ceasefire?

Trees are for liberal pussies

Next step, logging

Since when is the President in charge of government agencies and their funding in any way?

I guess they know what they are doing.

Just kidding

Can you source this? Feels like a gross over exaggeration compared to the article I read before.

Brace yourselves for widespread Mossad set fires this summer and then a justification for being forced to sell off these lands for “maintenance”

Yeah that's pretty misleading. The regional offices are being replaced with 15 state-based offices.

Same with the research program.

“The consolidation of research stations does not mean a retreat from the agency’s research mission,” Mr. Schultz said in the email. “Forest Service R&D has produced world-class science for over a century, and that will continue. The consolidation is about organizing the research enterprise more efficiently, not diminishing it.”

Eh he is funneling money from everything he deems unnecessary (health, science, nature preservation, education, progressing human rights etc) to pockets of his buddies, Netanyahu and tech oligarchs.

look at all the Palestinians that were saved because we didn't elect a warmonger like Harris.

this is an acceptable price to pay for saving all those children.

/s

hope he dies by a thousand pine needles.

Where's Captain Planet when you need him?

Please provide sources with posts from prominent people. A lot of altered and fake posts tend to be spread.

This looks like it may be one of them as only parts of the forest service are closing as far as a fast search can tell.
