As Difficult As Possible: The National Park Service’s Implementation ... [Live Thread]
/johnny
so what...??
nothing matters to the MSM... nothing.. not the truth, that is for sure.. this will NOT be reported.
America - of the People, paid for by the People,
OWNED by the Tyrant-by-Pelosi’s-Fraud.
Neither one of them has expressed any interest in keeping them open, with decisions as to remedial action to follow any problems the public created.
Congress won't do squat about the anti-public actions these two bozos implemented.
The park service director would soak Smokey the Bear in gasoline and burn him to death if it helped the commie government we now have. This pin-head lackey is riding this country dirty.
Now we know who needs to get investigated and who needs to be fired.
Anybody who thinks Obama does not have his hands in every decision is seriously delusional....
Every decision has a political equation to it...so he is involved...
Ask your Democrat coworkers and relatives if they are for keeping Veterans out of their own memorials? This is an issue that can maybe open some Democrat eyes. Big mistake by the Democrats. We need to take advantage of it.
Hell my low-information Democratic coworkers could care less - more interested in local football scores or this week's WalMart specials. If they know about the shutdown at all, it's what retired Ma and Pa say about the possibility of social security being affected, or what they hear on the local MSM-oriented news in between the latest car chase, armed robbery or football scores.
We could save some money by firing Jarvis and taking away his retirement and benefits.
Who did he talk to at the White House? My bet is Obama’s Lady McBeth, Valerie Jarrett.
We are hearing from this Jarvis guy (now retired) again today Feb 5, 2025 on Facebook:
This morning former Director Jon Jarvis made this statement about recent events involving the National Park Service:
“I have been watching the Trump administration trying unsuccessfully to suppress the National Park Service with a mix of pride and amusement. The NPS is the steward of America’s most important places and the narrator of our most powerful stories, told authentically, accurately, and built upon scientific and scholarly research. The Park Ranger is a trusted interpreter of our complex natural and cultural history and a voice that cannot be suppressed. Edicts from on-high have directed the NPS to not talk about “national policy”, but permission is granted to use social media for visitor center hours and safety. The ridiculousness of such a directive was immediately resisted and I am not the least bit surprised. So at Martin Luther King Jr. National Historic Site in Atlanta should we not talk about his actions to secure the rights to vote for African Americans in the south, or is that too “national policy”? At Stonewall National Monument in New York City, shall we only talk about the hours you can visit the Inn or is it “national policy” to interpret the events there in 1969 that gave rise to the LGBT movement? Shall we only talk about the historic architecture of the Washington, DC home of Alice Paul and Alva Belmont or is it too “national policy” to suggest their decades of effort to secure the rights of women can be linked directly to the women’s marches in hundreds of cities last weekend? And as we scientifically monitor the rapid decline of glaciers in Glacier National Park, a clear and troubling indicator of a warming planet, shall we refrain from telling this story to the public because the administration views climate change as “national policy”? These are not “policy” issues, they are facts about our nation, it is how we learn and strive to achieve the ideals of our founding documents. To talk about these facts is core to the mission of the NPS. During the Centennial of the National Park Service, we hosted over 300 million visitors (now that is huge) to the National Parks and most came away inspired, patriotic and ready to speak on behalf of the values we hold most dear. The new Administration would be wise to figure out how to support the National Park Service, its extraordinary employees and their millions of fans.”
The “values” these crazy leftists hold dear:
Lying!
