1. The logging industry REPLACES old growth timber trees with new healthier seedlings. Professional timber companies made recycling a science generations ago. There are more trees in the United States today than there were 100 years ago.
2. Healthier seedlings are more efficient in the photosynthesis that produces oxygen.
3. Old growth trees are what causes forest fires.
4. Most of the photosynthetic activity that produces breathable oxygen for Homo Sape is done by algae in the world's OCEANS, which make up 70 percent of the surface of the earth.
5. Took jobs away from others? Maybe in some Disney fantasy land, but in the real world PRESIDENT TRUMP has brought real jobs BACK.

“In one month under President Trump, the American economy is soaring back to greatness after the economic calamity left by Joe Biden. The manufacturing industry is already rebounding as there were 9,000 new auto jobs created — the most auto jobs added in 15 months! Under President Trump, the private sector is leading the way — 93% of the job gains in February were in the private sector. This is great news for American workers and families. The Trump Administration will continue to work hard to implement pro-growth policies and push Congress to enact the Trump Economic Agenda.” — Karoline Leavitt, White House Press Secretary
What has DOGE cut?

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), inspired by DOGE's crackdown on federal spending, said it had located $20 billion in tax dollars within the agency that the Biden administration reportedly "knew they were wasting."An extremely disturbing video circulated two months ago, featuring a Biden EPA political appointee talking about how they were ‘tossing gold bars off the Titanic,’ rushing to get billions of your tax dollars out the door before Inauguration Day," EPA administrator Lee Zeldin said in a video posted to X on Wednesday, citing another video from December.
The EPA found that just eight agencies were controlling the distribution of tens of billions of taxpayer dollars to different entities "at their discretion," such as the Climate United Fund, which reportedly received just under $7 billion.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the government's leading disaster-relief arm, gave over $59 million to house illegal immigrants in luxury New York City hotels just last week, DOGE uncovered."FEMA spent tens of millions of dollars in Democrat areas, disobeying orders, but left the people of North Carolina high and dry. It is now under review and investigation," the president declared.
The Pentagon’s $850 billion budget could be next up on the bureaucratic chopping block. Fox News Digital reported this week accusations of waste and inefficiency within the U.S.’s largest discretionary budget.
The Defense Business Board found in 2015 that the Department of Defense could save $125 billion over five years by renegotiating service contracts and consolidating bureaucratic processes.
Ernst highlighted that the agency "authorized a whopping $20 million to create a ‘Sesame Street’ in Iraq."
People responsible for this kind of waste of tax dollars SHOULD lose their jobs.

@Reason10 how many years does it take saplings to grow to an efficient size?
How many forest fires destroys thousands of acres in this country alone?
The US has more trees than it's used to? Reports vary so one can use whatever report they choose that sides with their statement.
A small percentage more than 70 years ago and a small area
https://blog.tentree.com/fact-check-are-there-really-more-trees-today-than-100-years-ago/
Us is losing trees not gaining
https://www.ncesc.com/geographic-faq/is-the-us-gaining-or-losing-trees/
And there are some government spending that should be eliminated and some should not.
When you cleaning house start with your own and stop spending millions, 18 million at last report on 3 months of golf trips. And they're not going to report all personal spendings.
And I found that some of the things that they said is grossly over exaggerated and some down out right wrong.
Please continue to support whom you choose.

Look for lobbying in both states by the whole family.
Trump knows this. Billionaires, especially Chinese billionaires, are his friends.

Chinese billionaire owns hundreds of thousands of acres of Oregon timberland, report reveals
By Alex Baumhardt (Oregon Capital Chronicle)
Jan. 21, 2024 6 a.m.
Tianqiao Chen, with nearly 200,000 acres in Oregon, is the second largest foreign owner of U.S. land, according to land ownership publication The Land Report. His stake has drawn ire from an Oregon Republican.
A Chinese billionaire and a California timber family have become among the largest private landowners in the U.S. following major purchases of Oregon forests.

@Musicman Actually, as an ACTUAL forester, I can tell you MOST issues come from lack of wild or prescribed fire for 125+ years, couple with changes in precipitation regimes. Fuels built up.
In most areas in US Native Americans long used fire that encourage berries, reduced fuels, etc. Anglos thought all fire was bad, despite there being human and wild fire over the eons.
Prescribed fire budgets have always been the first to be cut.

Trump never took any jobs from anyone, he stopped fraud. It's not a job if you're a criminal.

@HobNoblin Willful ignorance and blind loyalty are scary commodities and lead to abuses of power.

@Neoerectus Good thing we've got Trump in office despite of that. The left even support pedophilia and child mutilation. Trump is stopping all that. It's unbelievable that it exists really.
