SUMMARY: In 2025, Brood XIV cicadas will emerge across parts of 13 U.S. states, including Southern Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, West Virginia, Virginia, North Carolina, northeast Georgia, central Pennsylvania, Long Island, and Cape Cod. This brood is the second-largest periodical cicada group. Unlike 2024’s “cicada-geddon,” Brood XIV will have more scattered emergence areas. Cicadas typically appear in late spring when the ground reaches 64°F and remain for 4-6 weeks. Despite their loud mating calls and appearance, cicadas are harmless, causing no damage other than leaving water-like excretions on trees. A larger emergence is expected in 2076.

SUMMARY: The Department of Education, one of the smallest cabinet agencies, announced mass layoffs as it begins to comply with President Trump’s plan to dismantle the agency, which requires Congressional approval. Over 1,300 employees received layoff notices via email, with Education Secretary Linda McMahon stating the goal is to reduce bureaucracy to allow more funding to flow to local schools. Reactions have been mixed: Democrats condemned the cuts as an unconstitutional government overhaul, while Republicans supported the initiative. Critics warn that abolishing the agency could disrupt programs like student loans and funding for special needs students. A rally was held in protest just before the cuts were announced.

The Department of Education underwent massive layoffs Tuesday as it works to comply with President Donald Trump’s plan to dismantle the agency.
