Update: Told by sources that direct hire USAID staff are now being locked out of their accounts. Some told they’ve *maybe* been placed on administrative leave. Direct hires were some of the last remaining staff in USAID not locked out. The agency has been entirely dismantled.

This is not a forest. You can't just rake the leaves. It's a shrubland that used to be a lot more grassland when it was burned by the original Indigenous people and grazed during the ranching era. With climate change, increasing drought that intersects with Santa Ana winds is the recipe for fire.
