Predicting the path of tornados, the landfall of hurricanes, or whether it's going to rain next Monday might seem like magic. But it's not. It's the hard work of the people at NOAA who make the impossible possible through science. This is dangerous.
Layoffs hit federal climate, weather agency NOAA
The cuts could affect NOAA's weather forecasts, climate research and other functions.

Let’s face it. Getting rid of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion is to make way for less qualified white men to take positions they don’t deserve.

Seat belts, everyone 💚
If you’re on the struggle bus, please remember your seat belt (your seat belt is self-care). It is NOT selfish to prioritize your mental health, take care of you.
Visit your local library or favorite bookstore, watch your comfort show, drink some water, pet all the dogs…

Dismantling the U.S. Department of Education would hurt all students—especially those from lower-income families and students with disabilities—by cutting essential services, increasing class sizes, and slashing civil rights protections.

The joy you have for rainy days. You wait for puddles, the mud, the mini beasts. It is never gray and gloom, but possibilities. Each raindrop, a drop of inspiration. If only we all had your appreciation.

Banks, payday lenders, and credit card companies can now scam Americans with zero consequences because there is no longer a functioning agency to hold Wall Street accountable. This is a coup and your Members of Congress need to hear from you: indivisible.org/coup?source=...

The first full draft of the assessment, on the state of America’s land, water and wildlife, was weeks from completion. The project leader called the study “too important to die.”

Republicans want to slash Medicaid — a death sentence for thousands of Americans. Medicaid provides health care to more than 37 million kids, funding for 2/3 of seniors in nursing homes & is 40% of the revenue for community health centers.
We must EXPAND Medicaid, not cut it.

Our current health care system is not designed to provide quality care to all people.
It is designed to make huge profits for insurance & drug companies.
In that sense, the system is working very well.
But it is not working for the average American.
