Secretary Noem, your department is out of control. You are spending money you don't have. You are violating spending laws daily. You are making up your own immigration law. You are disappearing people just because they oppose your President.

Some conclusions from this dismal episode: *heritage trees need listing & strong legal protection *a sense of nature/the living world as disposable, even laughable, runs deep * “Far from being the big men they thought they were, they were rather pathetic.” theguardian.com/uk-news/2025/m…

🚨 There’s a lot of horrific news out of Washington right now—but you might have missed this: Senate Republicans just introduced a plan to sell off 120 million acres of our public lands. Let me break down what’s in the bill and why it’s a full-scale land grab. 🧵

WHY? Who is this for? I’m seriously asking.

This bill is a shit sandwich and not even the bread is any good. It’s a collection of the worst policies. It takes away people’s health care and food assistance, gives a giant tax cut to rich people, and adds trillions to our debt. Please tell me what is good about that.

So…. Let me see if I understand this… The Marines are being sent to L.A to help round up & deport Mexicans… While Mexicans are volunteering in Texas to help save Americans ? What a time to be alive. 😳

Can you possibly trust a President who can't spell, has serious problems with grammar, and capitalizes at random? I think not. A President who can't write can't think. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Trump’s GOP has already called slavery a “workforce development program” — now he is trying to ERASE slavery from U.S. history.

Public Lands Are on the Line sierraclub.org/sierra/2025-3-… Important work by Jeremy Miller and Beautifully done! Sierra Magazine Sierra Club

My story for Sierra Magazine about the Trump Administration's attack on public lands and vital conservation laws including the Roadless Rule, which protects huge swaths of habitat & wilderness quality landscapes. I'd be grateful if you'd give it a read. sierraclub.org/sierra/2025-3-…

This is a long read, but well worth the effort. If you don't have the time, though, at least read some of it to see just how thoroughly we've mucked up the natural order of an ecosystem. The Rio Grande’s pecan problem alamosacitizen.com/the-rio-grande…

The latest issue of Sierra Magazine has one of the loveliest covers I've seen--and I am lucky enough to have the cover story. The article, however, which examines the Trump Administration's attack on US public lands and environmental law, is not nearly as pretty. #publiclands

Rescued chimpanzee thanks Jane Goodall by giving her a hug

WOW! Protesters created a HUGE human sign on San Francisco’s Ocean Beach reading “No Kings YES on 50” to support California’s Prop 50 and stand up against Donald Trump’s fascist regime
