Great and all. But can we get something below a state of emergency. Everything seems to trigger one of those these days. It kinda loses it's meaning when overused.

It's so great to have a good administration coming in that will have a good handle on the upcoming 2025 plague! /s

In before Trump pulls a Mao Zedong and declares war on birds.
And to think he was trying so hard to save them from the wind turbines, and this is how they repay him...

Is it a multi species pandemic yet? I missed 2020-2021 so bad. I loved not being around people.
He can start by banning raw milk.
Lol who is downvoting this is one of the steps that must be taken.
I don't think the impacts of this are being fully realized yet...like the stores here (Sacramento) are low on eggs, the zoos have taken the birds off exhibit, and I live next to a large wildlife preserve that's a huge bird migration path and they just like haven't been there this year. Those giant starling clouds were an annual thing for a week or so and they just didn't happen this year. It really feels like there's a LOT less small birds; the big herons and stuff are still visible, but like walking the preserve is noticeably quieter.
