Trump’s disgusting behavior in our Oval Office in the company of a genuine hero and defender of democracy like Volodymyr Zelensky may be the most disgraceful public behavior by any president in our history.

The NWS is already short-staffed, making it much harder for the meteorologists who do crucial work to keep us all safe. NWS mets already work long shifts at all hours of the day. We will all be less safe because of this.

Judge orders discovery, allowing interrogations, depositions, information requests to develop. This is the first time a court orders this legal action in a case against the so-called DOGE. It is a critical next step to stop DOGE’s unlawful access to Americans’ sensitive data. 1/2
