Apparently hurricanes, which are the only outside force that regularly invades and obliterates American cities on American soil, costing billions in damages, multiple times a year...
... are not as important as these undisclosed "security concerns" that DoD somehow finds more important/immediate.
What's the real story? Protecting Americans from hurricanes is too "woke" or something?
Probably the longstanding GOP goal of privatizing everything. To get public support for that, they first have to cripple the public service.
Correct, but in the meantime our fuck-wit in chief will just Sharpie in hurricane forecasts when he needs more attention.
Oh nifty, Project 2025 again, that thing that Trump is totally not following to a T
Why must we live amongst such a vast swath of absolute babbling morons?
Isn't Trump's house in Florida?
Not for long with no hurricane data.
Well, the data won't change the fact that a hurricane is coming or not. Just Trump's ability to react to said hurricane. His house would be gone with or without the data.
One day we will all rejoice in the destruction of that shit hole.
We can only hope he's in it when it goes
This is beyond terrible.
scrambling to understand the rationale behind the abrupt termination
Stop trying to look for any rationale behind anything this administration does. There is none.
Who does this help???
AccuWeather... Big dollar doner gets what he paid for!
What makes you think this regime wants to help anyone?
Trump just wants to get rid of anything good in America. Keeping people safe is "woke"
You know what?
Go ham. The south Atlantic coast and the gulf coast voted for this. Now comes the “find out” part. I am genuinely out of fucks to give. Enjoy your hurricanes and the non-response you’ll get from the now-gutted FEMA. See if I fucking care. Have fun machine-gunning your own foot.
Privatize the weather lmao
Just draw where you want it to go with a sharpie ezpz
Any hurricane that comes by surprise will be nuked, not to worry.
Maybe a nuke filled with black sharpies.
including those monitoring changes to sea ice extent in the polar regions
Ah, there it is. Kicking climate change under the carpet again, I see.
Ding ding.....we have a winner.
Anything that monitors for data that proves climate change is real is now WOKE and Trump wants to sweep it under the carpet
Get ready for sharpie hurricane forecasting!
It's like people don't like surprises anymore.
As ever, the Trump Regime is a colony of dumb and malicious assholes.
Trump is making himself the enemies of farmers and coastal communities alike. If I were an evil overlord, I would want my logistics to be rock solid.
🤦
I gues we shouldn't have made fun of moron for thinking Georgia was Alabama. Disrupting climate change tracking is just an added bonus for super petty grudge holder. Prosecutorial immunity for elected officials was a terrible mistake.
Other than this being Putin Puppetry, I have no idea who would think this is good.
We're castrating FEMA and NOAA. What is the benefit?
The benefit is that AccuWeather will now sell that same data and profit,big dollar presidential donations are paying off!
The money saved could go to essential tax cuts for billionaires.
Can't afford to rebuild? Zillow will take that pesky property of your hands for a fraction of the price it's worth.
That's the benefit. It's a great idea honestly if your goal is to destroy the housing market for short term profits
Wait. We don’t have to sell underwater properties to Aquaman. We can sell everything to Zillow!?
Fuck Florida? Fuck MAGA voters down south? Crash insurance and banking markets? Crash US dollar and raise inflation?
