Eliminating NOAA is insane. The textbook example of cutting off your nose to spite your face. Its work is essential to maintaining our economy and safety. But because it assiduously gathers and publishes statistics based on accurate observations of the weather, and therefore provides factual basis for documenting climate change, the Trumpist/Muskovites will kill it.

Thanks for a very good post, Tom. A place we disagree is: "These fuckers are too goddamned stupid to qualify as members of the species." I personally think Homo sapiens is the worst, most destructive species to have evolved so far. Earth would have been better off without us. I hope whatever new species we mutate into will drop our worst characteristics of greed, selfishness, narcissism and lack of concern for others of our species and the gazillions of other genus/species that share this plant with us.
