    Excerpt: " 'I can’t begin to tell you how insane this is,' said Fred Wellman, an Army combat veteran now running for Congress as a Democrat in Missouri. 'He did not inform Congress, but he’s saying he informed the oil companies.'

    "Brian Gibbs lost his job as a national park ranger on Friday.

    "He was working as an environmental educator at the #EffigyMounds #NationalMonument in northeast #Iowa. It was his 'dream job,' he wrote in a widely shared post on Facebook. The monument is the site of mounds made of earth, built by ancient #NativeAmericans, that form shapes of animals.

    "The 41-year-old father learned of his termination on Valentine's Day. 'I am absolutely heartbroken and completely devastated,' he wrote.

    "Gibbs is one of about 1,000 #NationalParkService employees who were fired this past week. Parks advocates say the layoffs could leave national parks understaffed going into a busy spring break."
