Over 400 campsites at one of Pennsylvania's most popular destinations are closed due to staffing shortages from the DOGE cuts. Suspect more of this will happen across the country. Just really, really stupid and unfortunate in an era where too many ppl sit inside all day already.

Reports say LA Times is losing $40 million a year. Its owner, Patrick Soon-Shiong, has an estimated net worth of about $5 billion. Even if he never makes another penny he could cover those losses every year for a century and still have more than $1 billion left over in the bank.
