Stupid Trump stuff

CNN - Trump administration officials fired more than 300 staffers Thursday night at the National Nuclear Security Administration — the agency tasked with managing the nation’s nuclear stockpile — as part of broader Energy Department layoffs, according to four people with knowledge of the matter.  Sources told CNN the officials did not seem to know this agency oversees America’s nuclear weapons.

 The Hill - President Trump signed an executive order Friday to defund schools and other education agencies that require COVID-19 vaccines for students and staff.  Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and the head of the Department of Education are directed to create a plan to end these mandates and end federal funding for entities that do not comply.

Axios - President Trump wants to "rip up the grass in the Rose Garden … and replace it with a hard surface to resemble a patio like the one he has at Mar-a-Lago," the N.Y. Times' Jonathan Swan and Maggie Haberman scoop. The Rose Garden, created over a century ago, is one of the White House's most iconic spots.
