One reason why leadership/institutions shouldn't immediately obey. Enraging to see these programs quickly dropped while there's pushback against other EOs.

@sfchronicle.com is tracking news regarding NOAA and NWS layoffs and how this will affect California offices and staff. If you are at NOAA/NWS and have any information on cuts, I'd appreciate any information you can share. You can reach me on Signal at edwardsanthonyb.81. I can keep you anonymous.

Tonight I sent a letter to Commerce Secretary Lutnick, urging him to exempt NWS from the federal hiring freeze due to the critical role the agency plays in public safety and supporting the economy, (1/2)

The NOAA Fisheries Science Centers have been asked to provide lists of probationary employees to upper management. Trump and his adviser Elon Musk have been targeting probationary employees who have fewer civil service protections. via @isabellabreda.bsky.social / @seattletimes.com

is it an exaggeration to say that graduate programs/univ. research will be crippled by this administration? smaller programs ceasing to exist, enrollment crashing? genuinely trying to get an idea for what folks are feeling.

Here's a small list of the ways you directly benefit from the National Weather Service on a daily basis. The agency is a public good that issues critical, lifesaving forecasts and alerts. We must save it from indiscriminate and irreparable damage. www.damweather.com/2025/02/the-...

I am hearing unconfirmed discussion that NASA was spared from today's probationary employee cuts at the 11th hour. Working to verify.

Margaret is one of several colleagues I’m losing at 1:00p today, including one of my best friends who finally got his dream job 5 months ago. Fuck all of this.

House Natural Resources Dems, led by @rephuffman.bsky.social, are looking for stories from federal workers impacted by recent horrible actions. This is an effective way to communicate directly with Congress - Ana is the lead staffer. Please share widely. www.linkedin.com/posts/anaunr...

Firings happening right now at the NSF.

Mass impending layoffs for folks in NWS & NOAA is not only abhorrent, but also threatens public safety, the economy, and the scientific community. Weather and climate don’t care who you are and where you live - these organizations and the people behind them keep us safe… 1/3

alright, how naive am i to think NWS is going to get exempted from the mass firings? maybe it's not naive and just insane to fathom.

Shared with my by an NWS Meteorologist: NWS is potentially in trouble. We are struggling to get our public safety exemption approved from higher ups in the government. Without the exemption, we could face steep cuts. 1/2

I maxed out my credit card, emptied my savings account, and took out a loan to move from Alabama to Bethesda, MD. I don’t even qualify for unemployment since I’ve only worked at NIH for a month. I will be financially and medically devastated. Seeking suggestions for anywhere that’s hiring!!

Feeling like you've gone round and roundy and reached Critical Mass lately when it comes to scientists being fired for existing? Sign this letter from @ucsusa.bsky.social in support of NOAA: secure.ucsusa.org/a/2025-prote...

One massive irony is a lot of recent US atmo/wx PhDs have gone to federal labs because academic grant funding is a stupid rat race that often isn’t worth the aggravation or tenure uncertainty. So they took the “safe” route. And now this horror show govt is punishing them for it. Fuck these ppl.

‼️ The National Park Service has REMOVED mentions of transgender people being involved with Stonewall. Not only did the remove the world "Transgender" but changed "LGBTQ+" to "LGBQ+". The federal government is attempting to erase us and take away our history. This pride, we riot.

The main DEI page from @agu.org has been modified to take diversity out of the title. Glad to see it's not deleted entirely, but hey AGU, we're watching what you do and remembering the big game you once talked about supporting your diverse membership. Today vs. January
