Flying flags on El Capitan is a beloved tradition. But suddenly, after flying the trans pride flag, the practice has been banned, and a ranger involved has been fired. What bullshit.
It’s probably because Trump is in the Epstein files. Anything to divert attention.
“Kill all immigrants”, perfectly acceptable I bet. Fuck this place, I hate it. No idea where the opposition leaders are to support though. Other than Bernie/AOC/Newsome. Anyone have any other leaders to highlight that we can rally behind?
Take Newsome off your list he isn’t here to save anyone. He just cosplaying because he wants to be president. Motherfucker is far from a progressive. Hell he made being homeless illegal before the far right did.
Newsom has:
Cut funding for gender affirming care
Been vocally against trans women in sports

Vetoed practical steps to expand access to gender affirming care

Yep, he is doing what Democrats do. The cort the right. Anything except let leftist policies take hold. They think being bluemaga will help win over Republicans who hate Trump. They never fucking learn.
At this point they do it on purpose.
You get more fundraiser money after you lose next time ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
He is a vocal opposition is all. I’m not saying anyone meets the needs of the nation, but we have to start somewhere and build some momentum behind a leader.
Not behind Newsome or any other neoliberal you won’t get but politics as usual.
There are still park rangers left? I thought he cut them? Or was that just a lot got cut?
My wife works for the NPS.
A rough summary of the situation right now is that no one really knows what’s happening right now. Everyone feels like they’re going to lose their jobs any day now.
The people who should be off their probationary period are still on it and won’t be receiving proper status.
A lot of experienced Rangers took the drop, which has led to not only a loss of knowledge and experience but a lot of parks are running ghost crews. Current rangers should be the ones filling those higher roles, but in doing so, you’re marking yourself as a probationary employee.
Some open roles are not allowed to be filled at all.
To keep the public from noticing how mutilated the NPS is, they’re hiring a ton of seasonal employees. Seasonal employees don’t have enough time to really learn about the sites they’re working at or work on interpretation. Replacing full-time employees with seasonal workers also strips away more middle-class jobs.
that rock face is gonna be covered with trans flags now congrats
Sounds like someone’s freedom of speech is being trampled on by the White House and management. I’d sue.
