More people should be talking about the utter freak that is Stephen Miller and his white nationalist worldview. He's the architect behind most of this chaos as Trump is golfing, falling asleep during meetings, making money of memecoins and tripping while climbing stairs.

I know, norms and all that, but the default Dem position should be:
We think this is illegal but if the courts say you can do this then we are going to rip the guts out of the entire conservative movement. No more Heritage, FedSoc, etc. All of them lose their tax exempt status.

Again I reiterate, the Warn-on-Forecast project is the culmination of stellar work done by all of us on the team. We’ve heard the success stories, we know the community support, and we have so much to learn to make it even better.
This is ONE example of bleeding-edge research that deserves to stay.

This literally life-saving advance weather warning program is under attack because it's part of NOAA. When you're calling and writing to your reps, please consider putting a word in for it too.

I feel like this should be a bigger story. This is how the state takes over the will of the people. The logical conclusion of the majority under the rule of a minority.

Can we stop declaring this a “constitutional crisis?”
It’s bigger.
It’s a crisis about fundamental American ideals and structures.
“Constitutional crisis” makes it sound like an abstract lawyerly crisis
