Why is Thomas Massie the only Republican with a spine? Why can't other Republicans think for themselves?

Just ran the entire record for PAFA and while -46F is the coldest high temperature in the past 30 years, it does not make the top 5 coldest highs on record (PAFA records began on 12/1/1929 with only 1 day missing. #akwx #cold #climatology #python

Created a plot showing a 30-year period (1/15/1996 - 1/15/2026) of Maximum Temperatures for Fairbanks, AK (PAFA). The coldest high temperature at PAFA in this 30-year period was actually during this most recent cold snap. -46F on 1/4/2026 was the coldest high during this period. #akwx #cold

I welcome the release of four Armenian civilians who were unlawfully detained by Azerbaijan—but it is not enough. At least 19 Armenians remain wrongfully held. The State Department must intensify pressure on Azerbaijan. I will continue pushing until every last Armenian detainee is free.

While a Daily Average Temperature Departure of 39.2F below normal is cold for Fairbanks, AK. It does not crack the top 5 coldest days when looking at a 30-year period from 1991-2020. The coldest day in this 30-year period was 45.0F below normal on February 4th, 1999. #akwx #cold

Fairbanks, AK is cold but for those who want to know how abnormally cold this period was, here is a graph of the Average Temperature Departures for the period plotted in xmACIS2Py. This period was well below normal with the coldest days more than 35F colder than normal. #akwx #cold

Here is a Maximum Temperature timeseries and a stats table for the past 33 days at PAFA created in xmACIS2Py. Wow! A high of -46F on the 4th of January! #akwx #cold

In my opinion, xmACIS2Py would be a great fun learning exercise for meteorology students and professionals who want to have an introduction to Python. Data retrieval is easy, and there are a medley of analysis functions with the ability to also make graphics of the data. Recommend for beginners.

Yes, it is beyond insanity. Luckily, the American people aren’t buying it.

These people and this "agency" are such a waste of our taxpayer money. Waste, Fraud and Abuse at the highest level. Project 2029 RIFs cannot come soon enough!
I think it is probably a bad idea to put clearly unhinged, angry psychopaths in federal law enforcement positions.

The tragic death of Renee Nicole Good, a 37-year old mother fatally shot by ICE, shows that ICE can’t be reformed and must be abolished.

I’ll be introducing the Abolish ICE Act as a step toward justice, accountability, and humanity in our immigration policy.

Time to melt ICE.

And impeachment hearings for Donald Trump @joncooper-us.bsky.social
Every Democrat running for Congress must pledge to support impeachment hearings for Kristi Noem, Pam Bondi and RFK Jr.

Who agrees? ✋

Kevin lives in an alternative reality. It is NEVER ok for masked men posing as law enforcement to fatally shoot a non-violent person. ICE is an illegitimate agency since they hired a bunch of untrained schmucks and gave them military grade weapons.
