"The court is preparing to begin a four-week recess, and under its usual procedures for releasing opinions, the next potential day for a tariff decision is Feb. 20."

I think there are basically 3 phases to the year:
Now through March/April: Trump stimulus/OBBB vibes
April through June: Fed transition
Second half of the year: Taking the data at face value, preparing for a blue wave

Here's our reporting on the proposed dismantling of the jewel of US atmospheric science, @ncar-ucar.bsky.social.
The plan is to break NCAR apart and disburse some parts to other locations (like the research aircraft fleet) and eliminate others.
