For a country that exports food, this is going to lead to a reduction of exports.

Countries importing food from the USA need to maybe stop doing that.

I, for one, am tired of the lack of rodent parts in my food and medicine.

I can imagine these meetings are great:

"So what is today's agenda?"

"At 9:00-10:00 we will discuss the reduction in budget set by POTUS and at 10:00-11:00 we will discuss removing basic safety for the public. Also tomorrow we will discuss further steps to reduce public safety in the name of money."

Happy easter y'all

I guarantee you the majority of actual regular people who are civil servants there are working their asses off discussing what they CAN still do and how best to prioritize the most important things.

Federal employees have been busting their asses the last few months to problem solve where possible around all this bullshit.

Most care about doing a good job despite the bullshit politicians set them back with.

Harass your politicians for change. It does help.

The year is 2032, the game is Russian Roulette... It's your turn, you wipe sweat from your brow, courageously, you pick it up, and eat the head of romaine lettuce.
