I has been a very long time since I posted this list of 40 consequences of climate change. But, it's important to take note of item number 40.

RIFs can’t be done without agency leadership so this is RFK Jr extending his purge of CDC scientists to help Vought’s shutdown agenda. Genuine public health risks created by aggrieved men.

Prof Haigh, formerly of the Grantham Institute, said:

“To suggest that decarbonisation targets make “people poorer, destroy jobs, and make our economy weaker” is an extraordinary reversal of the truth. The cost of newly installed wind and solar power is often lower than new fossil fuel plants".

Democrats failed to regulate social media (prohibit the spread of mis/disinformation) & allowed a public psyops experiment to take place, and now Congress is irrelevant. Democrats should not have taken oligarchy/corpocracy $, done insider trading, & given up the moral high ground. & here we are.

Indeed, there is real question over whether the RIFs on a scale the administration is doing (i.e. that amount to reorganization of federal agencies) are legal at any time, let alone during a shutdown, since they intrude on Congressional powers. (Thread) bsky.app/profile/mark...

JACKSON, J., dissenting
SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES
No. 24A1174
DONALD J. TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED
STATES, ET AL. v. AMERICAN FEDERATION
OF GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES, ET AL.
ON APPLICATION FOR STAY
[July 8, 2025]
 JUSTICE JACKSON, dissenting from the grant of application for stay.
Under our Constitution, Congress has the power to establish administrative agencies and detail their functions.
Thus, over the past century, Presidents who have attempted to reorganize the Federal Government have first
obtained authorization from Congress to do so. The President sharply departed from that settled practice on February 11, 2025, however, by allegedly arrogating this power
to himself. With no mention of congressional buy-in, the
President’s Executive Order No. 14210 mandates a “critical
transformation” of the Federal Government, to be accomplished by “eliminat[ing] or consolidat[ing]” existing agencies and ordering agency heads to “promptly undertake
preparations to initiate large-scale reductions in force.” 90
Fed. Reg. 9669, 9670.
This unilateral decision to “transfor[m]” the Federal Government was quickly challenged in federal court. As relevant here, the District Judge thoroughly examined the evidence, considered applicable law, and made a reasoned
determination that Executive Branch officials should be enjoined from implementing the mandated restructuring until this legal challenge to the President’s authority to undertake such action could be litigated. But that temporary,
practical, harm-reducing preservation of the status quo was

Americans will be pre-judged as "terrorists" for their thoughts/public posts, so the oligarchy/corpocracy can make a buck. I don't see SCOTUS protecting left-leaning Americans' free thought--to the left of Christian Nationalism ideology-- if it is to the left of Christian Nationalism ideology.
