I'm smarter than Cillizza and I think the opposite. Pandering to the base, specifically the dwindling social media platforms means you're going to be unprepared for a counter-reaction that comes from outside your little bubble

I think we're seeing the beginnings of the ground Dems want to actually fight on. You can't fight everything, so it looks like SocSecurity and Medicare cuts are the messaging emphasis

the NRC HQ in white flint is on this list, although that's been discussed in MoCo planning for *years* Also what DC definitely needs is more vacant office space in the downtown core.

Remember the freakout on the right in 2009 about "death panels". "A bunch of unelected guys choosing whether you get to die or not" would be a nasty and effective way to frame DOGE's attacks on the public safety infrastructure.

ask the people here under a nighttime tornado watch about possibly not having access to this service in the future because Musk/Trump and their cabal of idiots don't think you should

My colleagues at NOAA said this move has been “paused” for the WPC, for now.

These idiots are going to bring down the entire structure of meteorology in the entire freaking continent if they do that. All of the weather data that their crap AI and apps rely on comes from NWS infrastructure. AW/TWC do a little of their own forecasting, but most of it doesn’t come from them.

You can’t understate how much damage ripping NCEP/WPC forecasts apart will do.

instead of cutting newsrooms, cut the opinion section. It's not like they add anything to the conversation that isn't already on social media

Wait, the next NHL Stadium Series is in Tampa? How in the hell? At least the winter classic is at an indoor stadium

The sheer complexity of the decentralized elections system in our country just laughs at the idea of an electoral conspiracy. Every state, every county, even towns within counties have their own rules, systems. Good luck coordinating even a few of them

This is my flag and I'm planting it in the ground: They're overreaching, and they are unprepared for the multiple consequences that will stack on top of each other when the jenga tower they're constructing falls over When will it? that's unknowable.

They’re going to find out the hard way that the commercial wx they think can do the NWS’s job absolutely, utterly relies on the public data from NWS

The math doesn't directly add up because the Bundestag is also smaller vs '21 (733 vs 630) due to reform and some other electoral rule changes around the 5% cutoff

Bear in mind, Dems basically hold all the NoVA seats so getting 85% of the vote in Annandale because PO'd feds won't change the math that much, but there's seats in the Tidewater region that are going to be hyper-competitive, HD89 is one of them
