It's sad to know US scientists invented the most sophisticated weather forecasting models in the world, the satellites and instruments to measure atmospheric conditions, and an advanced alert system to warn the public of coming disasters, and the Trump administration is destroying it all. - ThreadSky

To me the irony is that it was through weather science that scientists developed chaos theory

and now weather science is being undone by chaos practice.

Trump policies have no clear ideological basis except for (1) a determination to destroy our economy, security, and civil liberties, and (2) a desire for Trump and kin to get richer than Elon Musk. It's not stupidity. It's hostility and greed.

“People are going to die because of these cuts. Not might die, not could die: will die. Families will lose everything. Communities will be wiped off the map.”

Did you vote for this MAGA supporter?

It's actually treasonous.

It's awful. I can barely believe it, but there are gaps opening up already and it could get even worse. People could die in wildfires if the wind forecasts are inadequate (we saw with Maui and LA how quickly conditions can worsen).

The desire NOT TO KNOW is just so demented. Your Running Blind BAS essay helped frame this discussion - https://news.wickedproblems.uk/p/geoengineer-once-measure-twice?r=r1dq

It is a mindless assault on American strengths, when they destroy our scientific community. One wonders who could possibly benefit from downgrading our country so dramatically so quickly for no sane reason, and exactly how much they had to donate to the President to destroy so much American science.

The Republican War on Science by Chris Mooney was published in 2005.
It's only gotten worse in the last 20 years.
