DOGE cuts eliminated overnight storm warning forecaster job. This is now fourteen funerals it is heartbreaking this administration our lives are cheap.
We even have secretary of Health and human services saying vaccines are bad. Yet he goes and swims in a creek full of shit.
After 2026 mid terms we have to have congressional hearings.
I’m just extremely pissed off.

1. It's easier to hide the victims of DOGE. It'll devolve into a war of numbers and assumptions. A tornado leaves ...

2. MAGA thinks it's God's will.

3. Fleaon is a murderer, imo

Not only of the people killed by this recent storm, but those who are literally starving to death every day because he cut USAID.

[Duncanpup]

4. MAGA is cruel

None of those assholes need the money. They are doing it to hurt people.

5. Terrible news.

These storms are growing stronger and more common. Is there a link to these job cuts?

[marble falls]

8. Not to the events: they can't make tactical effects on hurricanes and tornadoes, but they sure as hell affect the ...

... after effects and remediation. Firing rescue agencies can be tied to that.

6. G.O.P. is crapping on the poor in order to make tax cuts for the wealthy

so sick

12. The "poors" will die

Unless they can be productive slaves. It's the Nazi way. They're just doing it by attrition at this point.

11. I am just as pissed off as you are Duncanpup.

[irisblue]

15. The adults in Kentucky (and Ohio) chose this by voting for *that* being.

I am feeling grief, anger and 'we freaking told you' so as we bury our dead country women & men.

It would have been different if the people of Kentucky (and Ohio) chose better.
