Ah yes, I remember all those boisterous 2024 campaign events where Trump and all the Trump Republicans rallied crowds and voters with their inspiring pledges to destroy storm tracking and weather forecasting in America!

USA! USA!

Pentagon will no longer share satellite data that tracks hurricanes overnight
Scientists were initially given less than a week to prepare for the loss of microwave observations that are key in detecting rapid intensification of storms.

"Zohran Mamdani is not an antisemite or a Communist, as quite a few people – even those in public office who should know better – are trying to brand him."

Really strong new column from @cityandstateny.bsky.social publisher Tom Allon: www.cityandstateny.com/opinion/2025...
Opinion: Weaponizing antisemitism is dirty politics
Zohran Mamdani has been unfairly branded as both antisemitic and a Communist. Neither are true.

CHARLAMAGNE: “It’s crazy to me that ‘socialism’ is such a dirty word, when all it is is trying close the gap between the rich and the poor and make sure everybody has access to basic necessities... That why I like when @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social uses ‘affordability’.”

If you think a just-fertilized ovary is entitled to life but are indifferent to what happens to a kidnapped 4-year-old with cancer, sent to a dangerous country without meds, you don’t give a fuck about the lives of children. You are just in a cult that fetishizes being against abortions.

Given the literal definition of deportation is removing a foreigner or noncitizen from the country, we - journalists, media orgs - should probably all stop referring to the ‘deportation’ of a 2 year old US citizen. It’s NOT a deportation.

I’m not sure what it is. A kidnapping?

You can't claim to support our Military and Pete Hegseth simultaneously.

The former are protecting our nation and the latter is reckless and grossly incompetent.

Pick a f*ckin' side, you supposedly patriotic MAGAs.

Let me be clear: this is not normal.
A town hall for Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia on Tuesday quickly deteriorated into chaos, as police officers forcibly removed several protesters and subdued two of them with stun guns.

Tulsi Gabbard voted in Hawaii last year after declaring under oath she was a Texas resident and claiming a homestead exemption there. This would appear to be (1) a fraud in her loan application, and (2) voter fraud in Hawaii, where she no longer resided.

Election law experts said Gabbard’s vote, coupled with her claiming a homestead tax break on her Texas home, raises questions about whether she properly cast her ballot and illustrates the complexity ...

If you were a halfway decent human being and you knew an innocent man was rotting in foreign prison—likely suffering nightmarish conditions—because your administration screwed up and send him there, you’d do something about it immediately instead of shitposting lies all day.

It's getting a lot of attn today. But even before today most of the country had very little idea of what has happened at NIH or through it the entire ecosystem of biomedical research in the US. Simply put, Musk, Kennedy & Trump exploded a bomb right in the middle of cancer cure research in the US.
