Are there Vegas odds on this? Can we gamble on it? Otherwise, it’s professional wrestling.

Who needs NOAA?? Just grab a Sharpie and boom- instant weather forecast.
Trump is slashing another 1,000 jobs at NOAA.

The National Weather Service, which is part of NOAA, provides life saving weather forecasting in the US.

A study found that for every $1 invested in NWS, it produces $73 in value to Americans. 

Again, this isn't about efficiency.
The US agency that monitors weather will cut another 1,000 jobs, AP sources say
Multiple sources tell The Associated Press that the Trump Administration is starting another round of job cuts — this one more than 1,000 — at the nation’s weather, ocean and fisheries agency.

Altman is much better at this than Musk.
ALTMAN, on Musk:

“.. I wish he would just compete by building a better product. .. Probably his whole life is from a position of insecurity, I feel for the guy... I don't think he's, like, a happy person.”

Exactly this.
The cognitive dissonance of getting up every morning and making coffee and walking the dog and going to meetings and answering emails and wondering what to make for dinner while there is a real live actual coup d’etat happening is BONKERS

This will do wonders for recruiting, ensuring the brunt of fighting and dying will be borne by poor white men- exactly the opposite of their supposed intent. Brilliant.

This is accurate.
The DEI is coming from inside the house. It's him haranguing and firing the whole of the federal government so it can be "inclusive" of people who paid him off.
Media framing of events is a choice. Trump frames event in way that I think most reporters understand is nonsense.
Don't have to repeat it.

There is a real story about what happens to state capacity over the next 4 years that is better told through specific events like this rather than in abstract.

He is at once an embarrassment and the most dangerous figure at least in my lifetime. The only hope is that he’s too preoccupied with the grift to do more damage than otherwise possible.
We don’t have a real President who cares about the well-being of the American people. All we have is a shameless grifter using the presidency to enrich himself.

This looks like a bad AI-generated LinkedIn profile pic.
Melania Trump’s official White House portrait has arrived, sending a different message from any that have come before. Our fashion critic writes that she is "telegraphing to the world that we should not expect first lady business as usual. But perhaps we should expect business?" nyti.ms/3EfAm7n

I’m no fan of Hegseth but this seems to be a nothing burger. Sounds like standard reciprocal language.
