Science confuses people with woke adjacent ideas like time and matter, biology and weather. There is a reason the Republican motto includes-in part-the phrase: "Ignorance is Strength". Leader said "I ❤️ the poorly educated" and #MAGA remnant and dutiful #HouseGOP is eager to comply! #COpolitics

for sure. I understand that the National Science Foundation (NSF) owns the NCAR building. they may also own the immediate land the building is on, but not the surrounding open space (owned by the City of Boulder)

Republicans don’t give a damn about your health care or making life more affordable for you.

NEW: The Trump administration plans to immediately shut down and dismantle the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, a global leader in climate research, White House staff said. Officials pointed to “UCAR’s woke direction,” and called NCAR initiatives wasteful and frivolous.

“This process was extremely rushed. There was a lack of transparency. I believe lack of transparency is a euphemism for sneakiness.”

so prices up, wages up less than previous, and unemployment up. that explains a lot about economic sentiment

Do you like receiving accurate weather forecasts, especially for extreme events? NCAR plays a huge role in improving weather forecasts and understanding climate. Call your Rep and Senators and demand they intervene in this insane plan.

The dedication of a statue of Barbara Johns in place of Robert E. Lee feels so incongruent with our current moment that I checked the date on this piece three times. www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...

According to John Case, Tina Peters' lawyer, the prison has increased security around her. He said he assumes the group of men in camouflage that blocked his entrance “has something to do with Tina." “She told me that there’s a detail of four of them that accompany her wherever she goes."

Xcel Energy is warning it may preemptively shut off power to 50k Coloradans on Wednesday due to extreme winds and wildfire risk. Legal experts tell @spencersoicher that Xcel's decision is driven by public safety and potential liability.

Elon Musk and Marco Rubio are going to hell. But first they need to be hauled in front of The Hague and charged with crimes against humanity. So should all the people who literally ate cake as they shut down food aid to the world's poor. www.propublica.org/article/keny...

"When a Denver immigration judge asked a little boy no more than 5 years old if he had an attorney, the boy’s brother, just a couple of years older, stepped forward and held his hand, volunteering for the task." #boulder

And yes, it is not lost on me that I will be routinely checking on NCAR's data today as #Boulder prepares for high winds

Prediction: Susie Wiles will be prosecuted soon for mortgage fraud.

Is this the public polishing before the firing? I don't know why liar Susie Wiles was so "open" but someone somewhere has gotta be pissed. 😂

If you're doing it right, being annoying can be a powerful form of resistance. There's nothing that says you can't enjoy the hell out of yourself while you're resisting. In fact, and take my word for it...if you do...you'll resist a lot more than you have been.

Trump’s Twelve Bigly Days of Christmas! 🎄🎶

Throughout the first year of Donald Trump’s second administration, Vanity Fair writer Chris Whipple has interviewed Susie Wiles, White House chief of staff, amid each moment of crisis. His insider’s account of Trump 2.0 joins the photography of Christopher Anderson for a portrait of power—and peril.

Susie Wiles: "Vanity Fair tricked me into saying embarrassing things about the Trump administration. And then I went back to talk with them ten more times."

The world MUST stop this hatred against the Jewish community!!

Tomorrow in Boulder, Colorado, it's going to be 65 degrees & windy, with gusts to 90 mph. The power company is preemptively turning off power after a wildfire sparked by downed power lines took out 1000 homes in the suburbs 4 years ago. Yeah, climate change's a hoax. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

You're telling me these are no good here?

A deeply dangerous — and blatantly retaliatory action against Colorado — by the Trump administration. NCAR is one of the most renowned scientific facilities in the WORLD — where scientists perform cutting-edge research everyday. We will fight this reckless directive with every legal tool we have.

It's a little early and took more effort than I would have liked, but the tree is up

BREAKING: The House of Representatives just passed a bill that would subject immigrant children to invasive bodily searches and keep them in detention instead of releasing them to their families. The Senate must vote no on this horrific bill.

Pink champagne cake.

Which do I dislike more, Trans-Siberian Orchestra or Mannheim Steamroller?

Shocked by the awful death of Rob Reiner. I spoke with him for over an hour last night. We talked about his work and his plans for the future. I always enjoyed his company. We met at his Dad's in 1975. Last thing he said to me was "See you next year.." Such a terrible end. Such a sweet man.

Will add Xcel knows their own equipment way better than I do, and they have a good team of meteorologists. I genuinely trust whatever they decide to do tomorrow. Fingers crossed this is a lower-end event with minimal impacts. #COwx

Joe Ely has passed away. Tonight have to dance The West Texas Waltz in his honor. youtu.be/XEybULOsuqY?...

Damn it, Joe Ely has passed away. He is now doing the West Texas Waltz in the afterworld.

Chuck Schumer on ACA: “When these tax credits expire, when premiums spike, people will lose insurance, people will get sick, some will die, and many of them will go broke when it comes to health care… After January 1, it's very hard to put that tooth toothpaste back in the tube.”

November is Lung Cancer Awareness month. I am so sad to report that advocate and stage 4 lung cancer patient Ashley Vassallo passed away last week at the age of 37 after being diagnosed in 2022 (after 366 days of being misdiagnosed).

Good Morning, World. 🦋 Are still hanging in there? ✊🏻

Don't you dare come for Dolly.

Charlie Kirk was a Chaucerian fraud right out of the same stable as Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson. And what has David Mamet written besides Glengarry, Glenn, Ross that's actually worth a second look???

Even sports commentators are calling out Trump's vile rhetoric. Stephen A. Smith slammed his "disgusting" and "juvenile" gloating over Reiner's death, warning this lack of basic decency will wreck the GOP at the ballot box.
