Why pay to test for microplastics in drinking water when you could funnel those funds into enormous tax breaks for the ultra wealthy?

An aspect of this story is that removing federal employees rights makes them less able to resist illegal actions. Its illegal to put living people on currency. But the Trump administration just pushed out the public employee. This is what they mean by "The Deep State."
The director of the printing bureau, Patricia “Patty” Solimene, and other staff repeatedly explained to Beach and Brown that there were legal and procedural obstacles to producing the note and that it would take years longer than they envisioned, the four employees said.

The two political appointees were dismissive in response, two of the current employees said.

“She had told them we’re not authorized to do this. We can’t progress any further, and all the stakeholders have not even met to discuss the next steps,” said one of the employees. “Currency often takes six to eight years to produce a new bill, particularly one of such high value.”

Solimene said she was abruptly reassigned from her post by Treasury management on April 27, writing the next day in an email to colleagues that she was leaving with a “heavy heart.” She wrote in her goodbye email, a copy of which was obtained by The Post, that she had been reassigned to another job in the Treasury Department and that her departure was “not my choice.”

The NYT headline “Justice Dept. Announces $1.8 Billion Fund in Settling I.R.S. Suit” What they failed to report accurately—the “settlement” was for $1.776 billion. A nod to those he told to “stand back and stand by”, to those who stormed our Capitol on Jan 6th. Paid for with OUR tax dollars.🤬
Justice Dept. Announces $1.8 Billion Fund in Settling I.R.S. Suit
The dismissal appears to be part of the Trump administration's effort to effectively settle the case, which stemmed from the leak of his tax returns in 2019.

Actual settlement was 1.776 billion. A nod to those who stormed the Capitol on Jan 6The Trump administration announced on Monday the creation of a $1.8 billion fund to compensate those who claim they were targeted by the Biden Justice Department and Democrats, forging a pipeline to funnel taxpayer money to President Trump's allies.
The highly unusual anti-weaponization" fund — denounced by critics as a political slush fund — was unveiled just after Mr. Trump withdrew his lawsuit against the Internal Revenue Service demanding at least $10 billion. It was an apparent effort to skirt oversight by the judge in the case who had expressed concern that the suit represented self-dealing between the president and a department run by his former defense lawyer, Todd Blanche.
