Donald Trump must be removed from office. Not only is he waging an illegal war—he’s threatening war crimes.

To the members of our military: remember, you do not have to follow illegal orders.

These changes to the USFS, the loss of the regional offices and excellent long-term scientific research, will be devastating. I hope it can be stopped.

The Republican Congress is the reason that Hegseth was allowed to start an unwinnable war.

The Republican Congress is the reason we are having the worst measles outbreak in decades.

The Republican Congress is the reason that people are being terrorized by ICE.

The power of a field trip to ignite passion, bring studies to life and inspire people cannot be understated.
So many of us owe our careers to the excitement first kindled on a college field trip.

And now I’m a science teacher and I want to inspire students to love and know the world around us and I’m just sickened by the sad reality that parents might feel nervous about letting their kids get those experiences bc of (justifiable!) concern over what will happen on trips like that.

Later, as a senior, I went on a Post 84 trip to Utah and it was a blast and we canyoneered thru slot canyons and my love for the desert Southwest was born. It’s like the color inversion of the Pacific Northwest—all reds and yellows compared to the blue grey greens of Seattle.

Whoops, broke containment for this. I had a close friend who was a member of Post 84 and strongly denied any abuse took place. I never quite believed that, but he was my friend and we simply avoided the topic for the next 3 years.

I happened to attend this school during this time, and the teacher who (allegedly, but the evidence seems pretty clear to me) abused members of the outdoors group was my biology teacher (before his leave and ultimately suicide). Lot of unanswered Qs from that time, this series has been eye opening

If a secdef violating the 14th amendment rights of US servicemembers by denying promotions based on race isn’t impeachable then I don’t see what is. The man would rather the military be racist than effective.
