I spent the summer with 3 elderly Forest Service retirees who warned Trump's staffing cuts were imperiling the land — and the public. Now an internal government report I obtained confirms it, finding Forest Service trails are being "abandoned" by Trump: wapo.st/3MJKv07

Internal Forest Service report finds ‘unpassable trails, unsafe bridges’
A report obtained by The Post says the U.S. Forest Service’s trails are deteriorating rapidly due to staff cuts under the Trump administration, posing risks to visitors.

I remember my mom’s first credit card in her own name. As I recall, one use of department store credit cards was that they were a fairly low-stakes way for a woman to build her own credit.

I cannot recommend this piece enough. IMO: The cake is already baked with sports gambling in the U.S. There are too many entities with deep pockets making too much money for true societal change on how we think about it. But this sobering piece is some kind of cautionary tale on the addiction.
