As wildfire dangers get worse, President Elon Musk and Flunky Donald Trump are A-OK with your house, your property, your livestock and our public lands burning up for the sake of Billionaire Bro tax cuts.
Let’s be clear: Musk and Trump pretend they are working to cut wasteful spending. But they are really on a mission to destroy and defund the federal government so that they can send taxpayer funds directly into ultrawealthy pockets. And just like they don’t care if your plane crashes as a result, they are also fine with your house burning down.
From NBC News:
Even though President Donald Trump’s Jan. 20 executive order says the freeze does not apply to positions related to “public safety,” federal firefighters are not exempt, according to a person who works in hiring at the Bureau of Land Management.
In at least one field office for the Bureau of Land Management, a division of the Interior Department, officials involved in annual hiring were instructed in an email reviewed by NBC News to “hold all offers related to fire positions” because of the freeze.
