BREAKING NEWS… Fire season is starting — and new data shows Trump’s Forest Service cut back on the work that keeps fires from turning into infernos.

With wildfires already burning in parts of the West, experts are warning this could be a brutal fire season. A new analysis of Forest Service data shows that under Trump, the agency did significantly less work in 2025 to reduce the dry brush and small trees that turn routine fires into deadly mega fires.

This is the unglamorous side of climate adaptation: prescribed burns, thinning projects, clearing defensible space around communities. It’s the stuff you never hear about in speeches, but you see the absence of it when flames hit the edge of town and there’s nothing between homes and a crown fire but prayer.

Trump has spent years blaming “bad forest management” and “environmental extremists” whenever wildfires rage, especially in blue states. His administration just proved what happens when you put that rhetoric in charge. Less fuel reduction means more kindling on the ground when lightning strikes or a power line snaps.

With climate change driving hotter, drier conditions, the margin for error gets smaller every year. A season that might once have meant manageable fires at higher elevations now threatens whole suburban rings. Firefighters are already stretched; they can’t compensate for years of underinvestment in the off‑season.

This isn’t just about trees. It’s about which communities get left to burn. Wealthier areas can sometimes fund local mitigation, harden homes, and hire private crews. Rural and low‑income communities — often with higher Indigenous and Latino populations — depend more on federal agencies to do the slow, steady work of making the landscape safer.

When that work falls off a cliff, the risk doesn’t show up in a press conference. It shows up when smoke fills the air in July, evacuation orders go out with an hour’s notice, and people sit in traffic watching the ridge line behind them glow orange.

The Forest Service’s own numbers tell the story: in 2025, they treated far fewer acres to reduce fuel load than in prior years. That isn’t because the need went away. It’s because priorities shifted under a president obsessed with cutting environmental budgets and handing wins to fossil fuel allies, not funding the boring, lifesaving work of prevention.

We’re going to see the results in real time this year. The question is whether anyone in Washington will own the connection between what didn’t get done last fall and what’s burning now.
