Trump is an idiot. And Putin knows it.
🇺🇸🇺🇦 Trump: When Zelensky was close, Putin was not. When Putin was close, Zelensky was not, you saw that in the White House. But I think both want to see it happen.

Russia wants to see Ukraine succeed. It sounds a little strange. Putin was very generous in his feeling toward Ukraine succeeding.

Julie K. Brown is a reporter for the Miami Herald who did groundbreaking work on Epstein beginning in 2018, including groundbreaking work on the disgusting coverup by Alex Acosta.

Her travel itinerary was released with some of the Epstein files. It appears the DOJ was monitoring her in 2019.

Vielleicht schaffen wir es zumindest, Waldbrände nicht nur auf Brandstiftung zurückzuführen. 12jährige, die Feuerwerkskörper zünden, gab es immer schon. Extreme Trockenheit, die daraus Waldbrände macht, ist hingegen eher neu. Guter Journalismus würde das einordnen. www.derstandard.at/story/300000...

From wildfire warnings to flood forecasts, NCAR's research impacts everyone in America.

President Trump's attempt to dismantle it for political vengeance is beyond reckless.

We will fight against this dangerous scheme every step of the way.

Der Staat schnürt der Wirtschaft die Luft ab?!?!
Das stimmt einfach nicht. Nach jahrzehntelanger Senkung von Unternehmenssteuern... Oder auch aktuell: Kanton Zürich. FDP&SVP drücken Steuersenkung durch. Dem Staat entgehen 250 Millionen. Das schnürt UNS die Luft ab.

Federal lawmakers called the planned NCAR closure “deeply dangerous” and “blatantly retaliatory.” Gov. Jared Polis said: “If true, public safety is at risk and science…

Es schleicht sich eine stillschweigende Duldung einer 3-Grad-Welt ein.

„Das Pariser Abkommen ist genau zehn Jahre alt. Eine 1,5-Grad-Welt war der kühne Traum der Pariser Dekade. Er ist geplatzt.

Eine 3-Grad-Welt ist der neue alte Albtraum des Post-Paris-Jahrzehnts.“

America is the place where your kids might die at home because of unaffordable health care, outside because they might get run over by someone with an SUV, or at school because they might get shot by someone with an AR-15.

How much of the observed global warming was caused by humans? Science's best estimate: ALL OF IT
To be clear: the new, near-exclusive emphasis on natural causes of climate change on the U.S. EPA's website is now completely out of synch with all available evidence demonstrating overwhelming human influence on contemporary warming trends.

I am ratcheting down my social media, but let me just say that all European leaders except on the far Right should note that the U.S. now seeks regime change in their country; basically seeks to depose them. US strategy is to support the political forces that threaten liberal democracy in Europe.

If someone tells you the CO2 is coming out of the sea, they try to fool you. We know exactly where it comes from and where it goes. We emit CO2, about half of that stays in the atmosphere, and a quarter each is taken up by oceans and forests.
Measured facts!

Heartbreaking. The University of Nebraska will terminate its entire Earth science department.

One of the country's most successful and respected geology & climate programs: gone.

When ideologues & politicians are threatened by the very act of studying climate change, I wonder: who of us is next?
It's over.

Despite the fact that the academic council recommended against it, despite the fact that the program brought in more tuition than it cost, and despite the fact that Nebraskans need & deserve this expertise, Earth & Atmospheric Sciences will be cut.

BREAKING: ‘This hurts’: UNL eliminates 4 programs despite faculty, student pleas
The University of Nebraska-Lincoln eliminates the Earth and atmospheric sciences 8-0, educational administration 7-1, statistics 7-1, textiles, merchandising and fashion design 7-1 programs.
