Even MAGA Republicans Hate Plans to Put a Border Wall in Big Bend
Virtually no one, it seems, thinks a physical barrier in the region is a good idea. The Trump administration is rushing to build one anyway.
DHS is rapidly pushing to wall off Big Bend National Park.
Big Bend's former NPS superintendent says:
“This is the biggest incursion on the integrity of national parks since the construction of the Hetch Hetchy Reservoir in Yosemite more than a century ago.”

Photo shows a golden iridescent fish underwater. The water has moderate levels of turbidity, creating some cloudiness.
When we think about #EndangeredSpecies, we often think of the big, fuzzy ones.
Let us introduce you to a tiny fish that deserves big love too: the Fish Lake Valley tui chub, found in #Nevada.
Urge Fish & Wildlife to finalize federal protection for this rare species before Friday ➡️ bit.ly/3OD2DKe

An alligator floats on the surface of calm, dark water dotted with leaves.
New records show that #Florida applied for nearly $1.5 billion in federal funding to keep the massive immigrant detention center in the #Everglades afloat.
The facility is harming the waters and endangered plants and animals in one of Florida’s most cherished wild places.

Will Your State Bird Disappear? • The Revelator
A new study shows that tens of millions of Americans could lose the chance to see their state bird due to climate change.
Will Your State Bird Disappear?
"Currently around 86% of the portion of the U.S. population included in the study has access to their state bird. That drops to 79% with 1 degree of warming, 75% with 2 degrees of warming, and 71% with 3 degrees of warming." therevelator.org/state-birds-...

The National Park Service has already pushed out 1/4 of the agency's staff. Now they're firing more rangers while bringing in surveillance drones & self-driving shuttles.
This is the corporatization of our National Parks while the surveillance state creeps into our public lands.

“He Can’t Do That” Is a Hope, Not a Strategy
The Steady State |by Steven A. Cash

"The question is are we prepared to respond when [Constitutional] limits are tested, ignored, or broken. History suggests that waiting until the law is fully cast aside is always too late."

RFK’s dietary guidelines will wreak havoc on the planet. Even a 25% increase in protein consumed would need 100m more acres of farm land each year, about the size of California — plus hundreds of millions of tons more pollution writes @olliemilman.bsky.social

Utah Seizes Control of 8 Million Acres of Your Land
How a Smiling “Partnership” Hands Utah the Keys to Your National Forests
This is how public lands are lost. Not all at once. Not with a single vote. But through smiling press conferences, hollow assurances & “partnerships” with people who have proven, repeatedly, that they cannot be trusted with what belongs to the public.

The background shows Glacier National Park, green trees, dramatic mountains, and a river cutting through the center. In the foreground is a picture of a National Park Pass with Trump's portrait next to George Washington's on it. There is a quote in white text at the top. It reads: "National Parks Are Not a Personal Branding Opportunity. They're the Pride and Joy of the American People."
We just filed a lawsuit to prevent Trump from replacing a beautiful picture of #GlacierNationalPark with a closeup of his own face on the #AmericaTheBeautiful National Parks and Federal Recreational Lands Annual Pass.
