Regardless of what you think is driving climate change, hobbling the agency that helps us deal with it is both short sighted and stupid.
The agency forecasts weather, manages fisheries, and researches the world's oceans, atmosphere, and climate. The proposed budget cuts would slash the climate work entirely.

It just the VA, but the Postal Service, Social Security and any other agency that the private sector can make money off of.
The VA is having mental health clinicians work in cubicle farms and tell veterans they can’t guarantee their privacy because of SecVA’s asinine return to work order. There isn’t room! Veterans will suffer. That’s the real goal. Force VA to fail. The price? Veterans. Enough is enough.

Great idea!
Anybody worried about an 82 year old Donald Trump somehow managing to run for an unconstitutional 3rd term should take solace in knowing his opponent might be a 67 year old Barack Obama.

Every American should be alarmed at even the suggestion of a presidential 3rd term. This applies to all occupants of the Oval Office no matter what the party affiliation. Folks, we can't let the American experiment end in failure. We need to continue being that "shining city on the hill".
President Trump has not ruled out seeking a third term in office, even though the Constitution does not allow it. Here’s what to know about presidential term limits and why they exist.
Why Does America Have Presidential Term Limits?
Congress passed the 22nd Amendment in 1947, imposing a two-term limit after more than 170 years of George Washington’s unwritten precedent. President Trump has hinted that he wants a third term anyway...
