“Cry havoc” is, literally, a war crime
These dumb mfers just blurt it out

The Russ Vought-mandated breakup of NCAR is upon us. The secret deals he made with for-profit companies and state universities in GOP-Big Oil strongholds:
- space weather to Lynker
- supercomputer to U of Wyoming
- forecasting & education to U of Oklahoma
- climate research gone

The Horse Brass, a real one for a real one
This is an astonishing story, or, really, the end of one that began with the building of the LA Aqueduct.
The LA Aqueduct was a engineering miracle, a gravity fed system that brought water 100s of miles to LA from the Owens Valley, designed by a self-taught engineer named William Mulholland.
It appears that Trump's OMB illegally sold off NCAR's space weather program to the for-profit company Lynker in January, before NSF publicly requested bids in a Dear Colleague Letter with a deadline of tomorrow.
NEW: Right-wing activists are circulating a draft executive order that purports to give Trump sweeping power over federal elections.

"When oil prices go up, we make a lot of money." Trump is giving away the game by making it cler that by "we" he means the executives and shareholders at Big Oil Cos, not the consumers who pay higher prices at the pump, for their heating, and for basic commodities.
Public power could mean a 15% reduction in everyone's electricity bill if we do it right.
I’ll believe MarkWayne is a plumber when I see him taking a sawzall to structural supports to make room for a waste pipe he forgot to install before the pad was poured.

I wrote something years ago. At the time it was an angry answer to the Second Gulf War. But it still applies to American misrule.

I’ll never take you seriously
There is only room for two lanes deep enough for tankers. One in, one out.
And all the Iranians need to do is say they’ve mined them.
I am in this skeet and as usual
Not like a shady mfer can’t buy a little Caribbean island apparently

In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice they aren't.

Journalists and pundits keep saying that the public is getting less concerned about climate change while cutting their coverage of the accelerating crisis. Perhaps there is some linkage here?

All going to plan huh
Today 15 years ago the M 9.1 Tohoku-oki #earthquake occurred in #Japan, one of the biggest ever recorded. It triggered a devastating tsunami up to 40 m run-up height. These events killed over 19k people and also caused the Fukushima Nuclear disaster. ⚒️ 🧪(1/4)

California's already poor snowpack is going to further shrink in the coming week as an unprecedented heat wave strikes the state.
