#Inspectors
#FDA #Layoffs Could Raise #Drug Costs and Erode Food Safety No mission, no research, no science, no knowledge. #FDA is eviscerated. In many areas of the #FDA, no #employees remain to process payroll, to file #retirement or layoff paperwork and to help overseas #inspectors who are at risk of maxing out agency credit cards. Even the agency’s #library where researchers and experts relied on medical journal subscriptions that have now been canceled, has been shut down. https://archive.is/NBha8

Various recent reports show the cost of the destruction of the government that worked for everyone. Kate Knibbs of Wired reported today that cuts at the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) have decimated the teams that inspect plant and food imports, creating risks from invasive pests and leaving food to rot as it waits for inspection.
Trump promised voters he would act like a dictator on day one; and he honored that promise, in spades.
🔥Trump tried to nullify the Constitution with an executive order directing agencies to no longer honor the 14th Amendment’s declaration of #birthright #citizenship.
🔥Trump closed the week late on Friday by daring Congress to stem his corruption. He attempted to #fire more than a dozen independent #inspectors #general (IG) without providing Congress with the required 30 day notice or details on cause for dismissal.
❇️The courts, responding to an appeal from multiple secretaries of state, fulfilled their role on Thursday.
Senior U.S. District Judge John Coughenour, appointed by President Reagan, was unequivocal in his dismissal of that executive order:
✅“I’ve been on the bench for over four decades, I can’t remember another case where the question presented is as clear as this one is. This is a #blatantly #unconstitutional order… I have difficulty understanding how a member of the bar could state unequivocally that this is a constitutional order. It just boggles my mind.”

SEA FISHERIES
ADDITIONAL SAFEGUARDS
The development of the #fishing industry in New Zealand waters has been considerable in recent years, so considerable, in fact, that the Marine Department is finding it necessary to take additional precautions to ensure that the regulations are observed. It has been found that breaches have been occurring in some parts of the Dominion, and this has led to the reorganisation of the system of sea #fisheries inspection and the appointment of more #inspectors. Certain limits are prescribed within which #trawling may be carried out, and the fresh appointments have been made with the view to more efficiently safeguarding the interests of sea fisheries generally.

During the #Obama Administration, #Netanyahu undermined Obama's nuclear truce with #Iran where we actually had UN #Inspectors IN Iran making sure they weren't developing nukes.
#Bibi convinced #DonnieDumbass to trash the deal, and now the Iranian threat to #Israel is greater than ever.
It's like #TheLawOfUnintendedConsequences was *designed* for #Neocons. 🤦♂️ (yes, I know these drones aren't nuclear, but the broken treaty spurred the animosity.)
