Just spoke to the president of @CFRF_RI, Fred Mattera, about the NOAA cuts. He voted for Trump but says @DOGE slashing jobs without careful consideration will hurt fishermen & their catch. "This is insane. You're just going in with your chainsaw. That's that's not productive."

A few years ago I started hearing about how a Koch-backed company was buying marinas all over Rhode Island and up and down the East Coast. @_jonnywilliams and I spent the summer looking at why this is happening, and what it means for boaters & businesses providencejournal.com/story/…
