This is how I learn that Reed Timmer is a MAGA freakazoid? Real fuckin shame, I only ever looked into his storm chasing content
Damn me too. Anyone else for recommendations?
Whenever I see shit like this, I just wish someone slaps them across their face. I’m not a violent man, but damn I want to slap these idiots so bad.
It’s always “cut government spending except for all the government spending that benefits me!”
49% of voters are always really, really excited that the gun of government legislation is pointing at the target they think is deserving. It’s partisanship.
We at “Team Dominator”?

A lot of them give themselves… Unnecessarily hardcore names.
i dont follow him closely but didnt realize he was maga, so lame.
fafo
I think these next 4 years we’re going to see a lot of Americans see how much the depend on the federal government. My brain broke when I saw the woman a couple weeks ago who said “I voted for you, but now you’re cutting SNAP?”
He literally said he was going to. You voted that you wanted that
Monty Python hit the nail on the head with The Life of Brian.
“Aside from the sewage system, water system, health system, education system, roads, bridges, internet, weather prediction, farm insurance, bank insurance, home insurance, disaster relief, police, fire department, and GPS and space constellation… What has the government ever done for us?”
The Bush era joke was ‘Americans learn geography via invading countries.’
I guess the Trump era joke will be ‘Americans learn what taxes actually go toward after they are starving and homeless.’
Seems like these people have no idea what the government does. They just think it’s just things for poor people and minorities.
They’ve been spoonfed for so long that they forget that they’re the poor people. That sounds mean, but holy fuck, I don’t need snap. I personally don’t need welfare. I’m doing okay - but I voted for those things because I know people do depend on them. But hooray I guess they voted to lower my taxes probably? I guess enjoy not being able to afford food when I voted to try to protect that?
Your taxes will be going up unless you’re making in excess of $400k per year. Only the very richest are getting tax cuts, and those will be massive cuts. This is the actual primary goal of this admin, make no mistake.
“Have the life you voted for.”
I like this… I might take it…
The leopards are having a grand ole time, what with so many faces to eat.
To be fair, “they were told it would happen” doesn’t work when all their “news” comes from Fox, OAN, Facebook, Breitbart etc.
To be clear, this person is still to blame for NOT seeking out more information from more sources.
Knowing what a politician says requires people pay attention and listen to the actual words. Plenty of people vote republican because they/their friends/their family always have. The thinking about who you’re voting for just doesn’t happen.
I’m somewhat hopeful, but not really expecting, that this extreme example of government program cuts will wake up some of those voters.
Probably not. Classic R strategy is to always blame the D’s, even if it was because of the R’s.
It’s ok because a for profit organization will step up right? Right??? /s
Even if the void does get filled it’s some corpos fucking wet dream. Would be stupid expensive and probably completely inaccurate
AccuWeather has been begging and lobbying for this for years. They are poised to profit from this.
Which is ridiculous. Their business was basically repackaging what the government was providing for free. They think it’s better business to roll out a bespoke weather forecasting system that costs millions of dollars to maintain?
Libertarians really don’t understand that the government is what enables them to do business. If you have to pay for all that stuff yourself you’re going to spend a multiple of what you’re currently paying in taxes.
The NIH still has its funding halted. What people may not realize is 90% of biomedical research is funded through the NIH and it funds over 800,000 scientists. As an example 99% of drugs approved in the last 10 year period were discovered using NIH funding.

Easier to be a fascist dictator when everyone is sick and dying.
The federal government is literally the same size it was in the early 1970s.
Idiots voting red: “the gubments gotten too big!”
What do you mean by “same size”? Is it the same number of employees? Same number of divisions?
What do you consider “the federal government”.
There are roughly 3 million people in the federal government and that number varies.
they literally had a fuckin manual
others read the manual or at least skimmed through it
read the fuckin manual
these motherfuckers don’t read, it’s woke
these people have memory of goldfish on ambien
don’t challenge the mectin militia ffs
The best response would be that you can’t help because your representative(s) that would have agreed with keeping NOAA around weren’t elected into office.
I have a mutual friend at NOAA who does hurricane tracking in the plane, a lot of them are unlikely to remain employed. You’d think they’d want more people tracking these Dem-manufactured hurricanes, but I guess that isn’t an issue. If they were smart they’d destroy the hurricane making machine
If we stop tracking the hurricanes then the number of tracked hurricanes in a season goes down what don’t you understand
Ah, just like the Trump approach to COVID. If we stop testing, our numbers improve!
That’s a great point, let me ask him about that.
It seems the more observers there are of a hurricane, the mroe likely it is to he destructive. I bet there were hurricanes 2 million years ago with 0 human deaths.
Makes you think…
With the Dems being summarily executed there will be no more hurricanes.
I guess?
If you ever feel like feeling sorry for them, just remember them cheering for this.
It would just be nice if only they faced their own consequences instead of dragging the rest of the world down.
All I’m saying is that it’s pretty easy to spot a Conservative. They do their best to wear their colors. Just sayin’.
To be honest a huge chunk of Facebook are bots
Does that say “and 8.1 Trillion others liked this”?
Mark inflating those user numbers again?
Probably thousand?
Maybe “Thousand”? Possible language setting thing?
This is good. People get comfortable and forget where their comfort came from.
Classic de-educated complacency. They’ve been told they’re angry, they’ve been told not to look up.
Meanwhile, their children are begging them to just take a peek at the sky, even just for a second.
