criticized brown, saying that he was elevated because he is black as federal work is in the united states. so protesting against sweeping level sold by the trump administration. the protest as john to save all punks during a demonstration in asheville, north carolina, approximately 2000. but because of the us forest service of being 5, unions for federal workers have filed the lawsuit to stop. the dismissals. trump, administration says, is trying to downsize the bureaucracy. what am on the federal employees have been laid off? of those who helped maintain more than 400 and national parks in the united states . because of your life is hardy and has more about a year ago. all the small roll ended his dream job as a custodian of california, as yosemite national park. now he's one of roughly a 1000 national park service employees who been laid off by the trumpet administration. i knew the rain was on the wall, but i mean nothing will just prepare you for the for the shock that you'll really get once you uh, once you get that letter or national monuments and products or surgeries treasure and you just ruined my dream. you know, covering more than 750000 acres to somebody park is know

brown, the fire chief for the metropolitan washington airports authority. rick barnett, the police chief for the metropolitan washington airports authority. our police major tim moore, the maryland state police. first sergeant john potenza and the u.s. army deputy director of aviation, colonel mark, we have an excellent. two overnight hour. we've been conducting search and rescue operations are really since our last update. and these operations have continued with our regular partners from the region, as well as some of the assets that have arrived on scene during our salvage surveys in preparation to lift the aircraft additional remains were located and removed from the river and taken to the medical examiner's office. so far, 55 victims have been positively identified from this aircraft or from this this accident. the ntsb, american and psa airlines as well as district officials, the red cross and some other support are organizations are continuing to support the families or the family assistance center. and during a site visit, so far, the only injury on this event that we have the report is that one of the metropolitan police department divers was transported to an area hospital. the be checked out after hyp

and on air force lieutenant general john dan raisin cain, as he is known when it comes to him, putting him, trump picking him to take over and succeed cq brown in this role. if someone from the administration heard your answer there and said, will, the president has the right to install the people he wants in this position, what would you say to that? >> i'm not arguing that he doesn't have the right. i'm arguing that it is very bad precedent and it doesn't, uh, enlist the support and the confidence of the other, uh, chiefs of the service chiefs, the other combatant commanders. imagine how they are thinking about this. they have served their whole careers. they are active duty. many of them served decades. they've earned four stars. they've served in combat, and they've been passed over. uh, it's bad enough. it's outrageous, uh, to fire general cq brown, who has served honorably with integrity. and he is a first class intellect and a first class officer. but then to couple that with passing over all the sitting four stars, there is no more, uh, clear message that he is sending to the military that the president of the united states does not

john thing. it's like captain fantastic and the brown dirt cowboy. well, let's get another one. why do you think the book's connecting? oh, i. >> think, you know, the book is about attention and how we sort of live in this perpetual state of distraction against our own will. and like odysseus bound to the mast, we're fighting all the time to retain dominion over our own minds. and i think that was true a years ago about the relationship we have to this and the screens. and then now in the last two weeks, all of public life is that way, like it's completely mirrored between our relationship to this device and then our relationship to what's happening in the white house, where the literal venn diagram of these two things. elon musk, who owns one of the platforms, right, is also the person driving this kind of compulsive, attention seeking behavior that's coming from the white house. i mean, trump has done more events, public events in the first two weeks than most presidents do in the first six months. i want to say, right, like the way that your phone

important to note that general brown is the son of an army colonel and vietnam vet, a family who dedicated their lives to the us military long before dei initiatives even existed. john, we're also starting to see voters in republican districts speak out against elon musk and the doge effort. is that going to have an impact on republicans? we watched that town hall down in georgia, and though the voters were fired up, he kind of seemed snarky, like he didn't care. >> yeah, i mean, members of congress don't care until they see their poll numbers go down, until they see their fundraising dry up and until they start to believe that voters who voted for them were affected. so even in red districts, you'll have democratic voters, and sometimes they will come to town halls. but what i've heard from folks on capitol hill working in republican offices is that their phones have been ablaze. people do not like this ready, fire, aim approach to carving up government to cutting government. a lot of people believe that there's waste in the federal government. a lot of people believe that it could be reorganized, but most of those people believe also that there should be an approa
