"M. brass getting forced out of dc and and a handful landing in grand junction. But not many how number one from what you can tell. How severe is that problem and number two. How do you go about addressing it. Well there has been a problem for some time which has been just marching down the track and people have known about it which is the aging of the federal workforce any inevitable brain drain. That comes with retirements of people who are really exceptionally knowledgeable in their areas of work. Whether that is science or you know energy policy Biodiversity sciences the national park service interpretation. You name it. Huge percentages of the federal workforce are eligible for retirement. Now and i think if they Did not feel supported by the prior administration. It is awfully tough to try and spend four years with your head down if you don't feel valued for the work that you do. And i think it's fair to say that many of the career staffers did not feel valued. I think that was a challenge. When i got into interior that you know it's been kind of open season on public employees for a long time. Maybe even starting More than a decade ago. So it's difficult to reenergize workforce and convince them you really have their back as a political appointee where they have seen the pendulum swing back and forth so we have a problem. There are very good knowledgeable public servants. Who have chosen to stick with this profession despite a the undermining of their work. They're still there. And i think you will see them. Emerge and i think you will see them be delighted to mentor next generation. But what we really need in. The federal workforce is is the next generation young people to recognize that. There is no better place to have an impact throughout your career than in public service. Because the influence that you have to make a difference in people's lives not just now but for future generations is profound. There is nothing in this coming from a businessperson right Forty years of my career in business and there is nothing as impactful as what you can do through government in service to the public but it's hard and so. I think that what we need to do is take those who remain. And perhaps some who've left that will are willing to come back to accelerate the mentorship of the young generation and also lean into their skills around technology in artificial intelligence and the further knowledge that we've had around our climate and our planet and put that to good work in service of where we need to go not just for now but for future generations you were secretary during the takeover of armed takeover of the malheur national wildlife refuge We saw a number of guilty pleas but then a number of leaders including ammon bundy be acquitted for their role there and then we saw many of these same groups like the oath keepers and the three percenters.

It is at least loosely based on a old Jewish horn talked about in the Bible but has been taken over by Christians especially the Jews for Jesus and Masonic Jewish groups and now the Patriot movement. Which has a anti-federal movement that seeks to overthrow the federal government and replace it with a libertarian theocracy? Which of course it would be a complete oxymoron. The the pastor there the event He did say during it Quote they'll speak all manner of evil against you. They'll say that you were just trying to bring attention to yourself. They say they'll say that you are trying to destroy other people's freedoms because if you go outside and you breathe someone might die. Yes they are ammon. Bundy was just trying to bring attention to himself. The people gathering are just trying to bring attention to themselves. They have been promoting themselves in as an anti federal movement. They are actively opposing. The state government and Idaho has one of the most conservative state governments out there. One of the most liber- Libertarian state. Governments out there. And they're opposing it too so no they they are just anti-government and anybody who's truly anti-government doesn't get it like even anarchists. Some kind of government. I don't know what they're really hoping to replace the government with but obviously it's not just getting rid of the central government man. It's pretty crazy One thing that the Bundy said at the event was I think it's bad enough and our rights are infringed upon enough will physically stand in defence in whatever way we need to. I believe that is specifically what Governor Brad. Little was talking about with a hose shelter in place order when he said that he doesn't want to have to enforce it but he has activated the National Guard and will use it if he needs to. They're bringing people from out of state and outside of the little town of Emmett to an event with more than ten people to potentially spread Govett. Nineteen either from Idaho to these other states or from these other states and to the town of 'em and win. The governor threatened the use of the National Guard. That was I know. At least I interpreted as stopping travel across regions like stopping people needlessly traveling from state from out of state to say a fucking Easter event in Im- it. It's not like they're going to be having the immaturity festival this year. Kentucky has mandatory shelter. Kentucky has a similar shelter in place and advance of Easter actually two days before Easter. Good Friday governor. Andy Bashir warned that anybody who violated the stay at home order on Easter knowing that there were numerous churches threatening to ignore the order also acknowledging that while most churches and every single synagogue and mosque in the state at shut down for this time there were some that weren't and he said that anybody who went to one of them would be subject to a fourteen day mandatory self corn team with police recording license plates and sending health officials to in person place all of these people and their households on quarantine. What actually happened ended up being at least that one church Maysville baptist. Church had a full house. At least it looked like it from the parking lot Which As a general rule of thumb churches considered full when the parking lot is eighty percent full. That's when people start. Stop showing up and just drive by so yeah. If it appeared to be near near full house it was full and that was despite a heavy police presence and even some nails blocking the parking lot entrances a church member who arrived beforehand Remove the piles of of nails and they ignored. The police warnings and signs and then they police went. Oh and some people even covered up license points To make us so the police wouldn't be able to record their license plate numbers so then. The police took down license plates when they could and the numbers when they couldn't and again everyone who attended lease. Let me phrase it. The owners of the vehicles that were in the parking lot during the event and everyone else living at their address are now quarantined for fourteen days. How fucking selfish can you get like if you can? You can hope that. In each of those cases everyone in the household attended And you didn't have. People need needlessly getting quarantined. Or at least everybody's getting quarantine due to no fault of their own but that's not likely with the Baptist Church but if there was anybody in attendance who had a roommate who is a devout Christian. Yeah that sucks. You need to pick your pick your roommates better. If you're in that situation and in Virginia Bishop Gerald Glenn of Richmond's new deliverance Evangelistic Church said at one of his. Actually I believe is that his last service he attended on March twenty second quote. I firmly believe that God is larger than the dreaded virus. You can quote me on that. He happily announced that he was being controversial violating safety rules at way more than ten people in attendance and then he was diagnosed with Kovic nineteen and has now died his wife's also sick with over nineteen and according to their daughter early on her father dismissed his symptoms because he has some other health condition that often leads to fevers and infections. I'M GONNA GUESS DIABETES. And so she ignored that he nord that apparently ignoring that diabetes and and or any other health disorder that negatively impacts your immune system but she would increase risk of severe complications from Cova nineteen including death. He firmly believed that God is larger than the dreaded virus the virus that killed him.
