Botany's Journal4 Universal Landscape Goals; Doug Tallamy is the man. His national backyard national parks ....
... program is very important.
There are four ecological functions every landscape must perform if we are to achieve a sustainable relationship with the natural world that support us (and continuing to insist on landscapes that do not sustain mother nature is not and has never been a realistic option). It’s really very simple; our landscapes must do the things that enable ecosystems to produce the life support we and every other species requires.
1) They must support a diverse community of pollinators throughout the growing season.
2) They must provide energy for the local food web.
3) They must manage the watershed in which they lie.
4) They must remove carbon from the atmosphere where it is wreaking havoc on the earth’s climate.
How well a landscape accomplishes these goals depends on how well we, as landscape managers, choose and deploy the plants on our landscapes.

1 more time George Santos aka Anthony "Tony" DeVolder is a CHAOS AGENT who was installed...
.... to cause problems just like Putin installed Trump to weaken America from the inside. "Tony"
is doing exactly what who or whomever backed him wanted him to do right now. I would bet
he has Russian backing and or right wingers like the Mercers. Every time he tells an over the
top lie he is just doing his job. I hope the DoJ picks him up before he tries to skip town and at
the very least ships him back to Brazil to face charges for his crimes there.
How did I get on Elise Stefanik's email list along with Hillsdale College too?
I am honored to help lead the first-ever Select Subcommittee on Weaponization of the Federal Government.
Joe Biden has spent the last two years as president using the full weight of the federal government to persecute his political opponents and advance his personal agenda. He has weaponized law enforcement agencies like the FBI and DOJ to squash ideological dissent and illegally attack members of the opposition party — including his most likely opponent in the 2024 election, President Donald J. Trump.
Biden Administration officials, free from risk of Congressional oversight with Nancy Pelosi as House Speaker, routinely committed brazen acts of corruption. Now that Republicans are in charge, things are about to change in Washington.
Vlad's war .... warning graphic
Nina Kovalenko, 66, crying over the body of her son Mykhailo Kovalenko, 36, who was killed in a strike on Saturday in Kostyantynivka, in eastern Ukraine.
KYIV, Ukraine — Russian troops mounted a fierce assault on Ukrainian forces on Saturday in an effort to dislodge them from critical positions in eastern Ukraine, with Moscow seeking to protect vital supply routes and both armies jockeying for position in anticipation of new offensive campaigns.
Russia has been trying for months to break through well-fortified Ukrainian defensive positions across the Luhansk and Donetsk regions, throwing wave after wave of soldiers into the fight and suffering heavy casualties but making few territorial gains.
Those efforts have taken on greater urgency as Western and Ukrainian officials warn that Moscow plans to launch a large-scale assault aimed at regaining the upper hand, nearly a year after Russia invaded Ukraine. Military experts and Western officials say they also believe that Ukraine will try to mount an offensive of its own to drive Russia out of occupied areas in the east.
“It is no secret that they are preparing for a new wave by Feb. 24,” Oleksiy Danilov, the head of the Ukrainian National Security and Defense Council, told Radio Liberty on Friday, referring to Russian forces and what will be the first anniversary of their full-scale invasion. Moscow’s immediate goal, he said, is to capture the entire Donetsk and Luhansk regions and then “to completely go beyond the borders of the regions.”

ATTN A.G. Garland doesn't Mr. Durham still work for the DoJ? You might want to have a chat w/him
Mr. Barr and Mr. Durham never disclosed that their inquiry expanded in the fall of 2019, based on a tip from Italian
officials, to include a criminal investigation into suspicious financial dealings related to Mr. Trump. The specifics of
the tip and how they handled the investigation remain unclear, but Mr. Durham brought no charges over it.

And doesn't the work products coming from their Italian trip along with whole Durham "investigation" property
of the DoJ and shouldn't the American people get to see it?

Wow he is very very impressive.
Barr Pressed Durham to Find Flaws in the Russia Investigation. It Didn't Go Well.
Source: NY Times
Egged on by Mr. Trump, Attorney General William P. Barr set out in 2019 to dig into their shared theory that the Russia investigation likely stemmed from a conspiracy by intelligence or law enforcement agencies. To lead the inquiry, Mr. Barr turned to a hard-nosed prosecutor named John H. Durham, and later granted him special counsel status to carry on after Mr. Trump left office.
But after almost four years — far longer than the Russia investigation itself — Mr. Durham’s work is coming to an end without uncovering anything like the deep state plot alleged by Mr. Trump and suspected by Mr. Barr.

Mr. Trump would repeatedly portray the Mueller report as having found “no collusion with Russia.” The reality was more complex. In fact, the report detailed “numerous links between the Russian government and the Trump campaign,” and it established both how Moscow had worked to help Mr. Trump win and how his campaign had expected to benefit from the foreign interference.

But the broader findings contradicted Mr. Trump’s accusations and the rationale for Mr. Durham’s inquiry. Mr. Horowitz found no evidence that F.B.I. actions were politically motivated. And he concluded that the investigation’s basis — an Australian diplomat’s tip that a Trump campaign adviser had seemed to disclose advance knowledge that Russia would release hacked Democratic emails — had been sufficient to lawfully open it.

Just how deep does the rot go? Who here thinks that Trump did not know that the NYC's FBI field ...
... office with Charles McGonigal was on Putin's (Deripaska's) payroll in 2016? And who else was
aware of and or working the dirty FBI NYC office's connection to Russia? Comey, Rudy, Flynn, Stone,
Nunuz, Manafort, and or News Corp (Fox News)?
Every time Trump said "fake news" as per the connections between Trump and Russia he was lying.
The rot is very deep. Hell, the FBI office* that sandbaged HRC was on the Russian Payroll in 2016
* I betya there is more than one.
