TRUMP SAYS DATA FROM NOAA AND NASA A SCAM

Staff cuts at NOAA have resulted in loss of "27,000 years of experience."

NOAA retirees are working as volunteers and unpaid interns to help with the current workload.

The White House wants to entirely eliminate NOAA Research, the branch of the agency that oversees the Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory.

This is deliberate sabotage by the anti-science White House.

A reminder.

NOAA/NHC employees are considered critical. Thus, they remain at work. Yes, even without pay.

It's NOT a "paid vacation" as some MAGAty douchebag reputincan alleged. It's dedication to service, and the HOPE that they will get paid, and not get their house repossessed/be evicted, children starve, etc.

"Camps are often located in rural or remote areas where cell service is unreliable, leaving kids and counselors vulnerable when severe weather strikes. The Signal & Shield Camp Initiative changes that. By equipping camps with NOAA Weather Radios, a direct and automatic link to the National Weather Service, we’re providing a lifesaving tool, not a luxury. Just like a smoke detector warns of fire, these radios deliver real-time alerts, day or night, even during power outages, ensuring warnings are heard when seconds matter. And this campaign goes beyond devices. Each camp will also receive training and educational materials to help staff interpret alerts, respond quickly, and foster a lasting culture of preparedness and safety.

Today, the PSEMA Foundation, alongside our partners at the American Camp Association, the American Logistics Aid Network, and Midland Radio, is proud to officially announce the launch of the Signal & Shield Camp Initiative. This national campaign represents a $600,000 effort to equip more than 12,000 youth camps with NOAA Weather Radios and practical preparedness resources...."

The #Wehrmacht had long been on the defensive militarily: the troops of the Western #Allies were already on the Rhine, while in the East the #Soviet army had advanced up to 80 km from #Berlin.

#Hitler sums up his distorted view of history once again, calls on the population to fight once more and 👉demands the greatest willingness to sacrifice from everyone in the country.👈"...

This is exactly what all #Fascists try to convince you of:
that you don't stand a chance anyway, that they are infallible and invincible.

Another method is #FloodingTheZone (#SteveNannon.)

That is also what #Hitler told his soldiers right up to the end:

"...One last time on the 12th anniversary of the National Socialist government on January 30,

“In a stunning reversal, the Pentagon said it will uphold a longstanding program that supplies critical hurricane data to federal forecasters—just days before it was set to end. The move follows outcry from meteorologists and public officials blindsided by the planned cancellation at the start of #hurricane season.“

Margaret Sullivan and Gene Weingarten offer valuable commentary on how the right-wing outrage machine has placed the life of cartoonist Adam Zyglis at risk after he published the cartoon below, commenting on how the Texas floods swept away the argument that "government is the problem."

The cartoon is being deliberately misread as an attack on MAGA voters now grieving in Texas.

"If Kerr County had asked for $1,000,000 to booby-trap the river with alligators and other sadistic death traps to drown immigrants who tried to swim across it, Governor Greg Abbott would have found the money. But keeping children safe from preventable disasters is not Abbott’s priority.

Or America’s."

"Texas has spent $11 billion on 'border security' since 2021 as part of 'Operation Lonestar' (I’ve written about that unconstitutional stupidity here). But it wouldn’t direct funds to the town to help keep children safe."

"The problem in Texas was that the budget cuts crippled the National Weather Service’s ability to warn residents about the oncoming flash floods. It’s not that the service’s scientists didn’t forecast the potential flooding accurately enough; it’s that the service’s communications staff had been so shrunk that the forecasts were not shared promptly with the public and emergency managers."
