The Ag Dept is moving to replace hundreds of scientists who fled or were forced out by the last admin

DOJ officials are looking to hire civil rights attys and Energy Dept is recruiting for sr energy efficiency and renewable energy roles that went unfilled when Trump was POTUS
A number of decisions by the Trump administration, including the relocation of key economic research and land management offices, are proving hard to reverse.

Trump succeeded in his goal of cleaving and disrupting the federal government.
The annual list of troubled federal programs, released in March by the Government Accountability Office, is longer than ever, a shift workforce experts attribute to vast areas of the government the Trump administration ignored.
5 areas got worse:

U.S. Postal Service financial viability

The decennial census

Ensuring the nation’s cybersecurity

Strategic human capital management

The Environmental Protection Agency’s process for assessing and controlling toxic chemicals
Despite Trump’s pledge to “cut so much your head will spin,” the largest gov departments — Defense, Veterans Affairs and Homeland Security — grew during his presidency, leaving the bureaucracy 3.4 percent larger overall than when he became president

It happened in only 4 yrs

WHY DOES THIS CONTINUE?

“This is one of the few places in America where you can wake up Monday flat broke and on Tuesday you can have $10,000 in your pocket.”
-Flac, who manages heroin-dealing operations on a Kensington corner

@JoshShapiroPA
It’s called the Kensington Initiative, and it’s animated by the principle that simply arresting every dealer or buyer on a street corner for long the preferred tactic for narcotics busts won’t make a dent in the larger drug organizations upending residents’ lives.
The intel-driven effort, federal, state and local investigators meet for weekly huddles to share info has dismantled 5 Kensington heroin networks. Those arrested include a man they describe as a leader of the Clementine ring, Brandon Perez, 29.

on Wednesday, the EPA released a detailed and disturbing account of the startling changes that Earth’s warming had on parts of the United States during Trump’s presidency.

washingtonpost.com/climate-enviro…
For years Trump and his deputies played down the impact of greenhouse gas emissions from burning fossil fuels and delayed the release of an EPA report detailing climate-related damage

The destruction of year-round permafrost in Alaska, loss of winter ice on the Great Lakes and
spike in summer heat waves in U.S. cities all signal that climate change is intensifying

The assessment, which languished under the Trump admin for three years, marks the first time the agency has said such changes are being driven at least in part by human-caused global warming

I see the ghost of J. Edgar was around

The Trump Justice Department secretly obtained Washington Post journalists’ phone records and tried to obtain their email records over reporting they did in the early months of the Trump administration on Russia’s role in the 2016 election
The last such high-profile seizure of reporters’ comma records came several years ago as part of an inv into the source of stories by a reporter who worked at BuzzFeed, Politico and the NYT. The stories at issue there also centered around 2017 reporting on the investigation into
Russian election interference.

It is rare for the DOJ to use subpoenas to get records of reporters in leak investigations, and such moves must be approved by the AG. The letters do not say precisely when the reporters’ records were taken and reviewed, but a dept spokesman said

John Cameron Denton, 27, was the Texas leader of the Atomwaffen Division was sentenced Tuesday to 41 months in prison for harassing journalists who reported on his activities and others.

“the most widespread swatting conspiracy in the country” known to federal law enforcement.
Atomwaffen, which calls for acts of random violence in hopes of starting a race war, was founded in 2015 on the neo-Nazi website Iron March and has been linked to several killings. One founder is now facing trial in Florida where he is accused of murdering his two roommates;
the other is in prison for possession of explosives. While much of its activity occurred online, members also met for “hate camps” and traveled abroad to meet like-minded extremists in Europe.

Article from 2007
Rudy Giuliani’s Five Big Lies About 9/11

1. ‘I think the thing that distinguishes me on terrorism is, I have more experience dealing with it.’

And look who's here! Victoria Toensing, the DAAG at DOJ who filed a criminal complaint in the Lauro investigation, says that no one in
Giuliani’s office “was involved at all.”

2. ‘I don’t think there was anyplace in the country, including the federal government, that was as well prepared for that attack as New York City was in 2001.’

Sounds like he's on drugs
#repmarksamsel was substitute teaching. Throughout the day students began recording videos of the lawmaker talking about suicide, sex, masturbation, God and the Bible.

In one video Samsel tells students about “a sophomore who’s tried killing himself

three times,” adding that it was because “he has two parents and they’re both females.”

“He’s a foster kid. His alternatives in life were having no parents or foster care parents who are gay. How do you think I’m going to feel if he commits suicide? Awful.”

In another video Samsel is recorded telling students “make babies. Who likes making babies? That feels good, doesn’t it? Procreate. ... You haven’t masturbated? Don’t answer that question....God already knows.”

“You’re about ready to anger me and get the wrath of God. Do you
