There’s a new video circulating of a woman named Isabella who was recently fired from her job at the National Forest Service.

She’s standing at a podium with an American flag behind her. She’s very earnest as she describes the effort she put into her job, and how she was suddenly, unexpectedly terminated.

Of course, her story is being picked up by those who oppose the cuts that President Trump is making in the federal workforce and used as an example of the “human” side of these layoffs. One Senator says he refuses to let these firings stand, and he is going to fight for terminated federal employees.

For decades, federal workers have had the luxury of (correctly) assuming they were untouchable.

These folks are also learning another hard truth: Just because you put effort into something doesn’t mean it’s valuable. [Connor Boyack]

Good Night, Patriots!
