Trump wants to open up 45 million acres of national forests for logging and construction. He’s also pushing to open up public lands to drilling and mining and build useless border security in Big Bend National Park. He’s selling our beautiful public lands to the highest bidder.

And I can only imagine what these sailors are going through. They don't deserve this. This is deleterious to our armed forces. How are we going to retain these service members? How are we going to recruit more? This is a problem that needs to be addressed immediately. Fin

We were supporting troops who were daily in contact, shot at, just about every sortie. They flew us so much that by the end of the 90 days I had to sit on the ground for the last week because the waiver to keep us in the air would have to be signed by the Sec Def. 4/n

One of our crew was on reserve orders that would expire just days past our planned return. We were in tents. Eight of us. B-1's taking off on full burner in the middle of the night a mile away. A quarter mile walk to the latrine. Flying long missions (13+ hours) every third day. 3/n

Literally less than a week before we were scheduled to depart they told us we were doubling our deployment length. I had one crew member whose wife was 8 months pregnant and no one that could replace him. Another had planned to get married a couple of weeks post deployment. 2/n

@rephuffman.bsky.social The last time I deployed in support of Enduring Freedom, in 2004, our tour was 45 days. We were extended another 45 days. I am not comparing our experience with this, but here are the impacts it had on us. 1/n

With my AF Spanish linguist background I’d say 100% chance what they are doing off the coast of Venezuela is murder.

I’m heading up to our kid’s camp today through Weed, CA and every time I pass through I think of the town founded by a Maine Union soldier who survived fighting the Confederacy, and later used by Steinbeck as the town George and Lenny left in the opening chapter.

Investment accounts owned by President Trump engaged in more than 300 previously undisclosed stock purchases on April 8, 2025, one day before his surprise announcement that he would pause a number of his “Liberation Day” tariffs, his financial disclosure report says.

Trump discloses 327 unreported stock trades made a day before his first tariff pause
Their disclosure, more than 14 months after they occurred, is the latest revelation to fuel calls for greater scrutiny of the president’s financial assets.

I get angry when people talk about "declining trust in science" as though there weren't a coordinated effort by billionaire criminals to smear science as a way to decrease regulations, spread propaganda, and enrich themselves. Scientists are being scapegoated and we should not play along.

The b-roll from my walk with the camera yesterday. I usual post the bangers, but these all have such pretty colors. I’ll be looking for the Lazuli Bunting in this area, it’s next to a large river so something is always happening. #birds #squirrel
A Canada goose flying towards the camera its wings spread wide against the pale blue sky. A flight of Canada Geese landing in a river against a green backdrop of trees. A Mourning dove flying away from the camera against a backdrop of green tree canopies. A gray tree squirrel sits atop a dead branch eating a walnut.

I was watching TV this morning. You?
A dark brown bird with a bare, red head and ivory bill looks over their shoulder towards me.  They are perched on a bare oak branch. The same bird prepares to take flight with wings spread and held high, the underside of their wing flight feathers are a light color.

It’s been a while since I went wandering around with the bird apparatus, this morning I took it down to the river looking for Orioles. The Bullocks are thick and love hanging out way up in the cottonwoods and mature oaks. I got lucky and found their nest! 😀
