This is really stupid, and it’s not getting enough attention.
The Trump administration is pulling a working $368 million ocean monitoring system out of the water, equipment taxpayers already bought, built, and sank into the deep ocean.
And they are doing it right when the oceans are behaving in ways that alarm the scientists who study them.
Record-breaking temperatures.
A system of Atlantic currents that may be lurching toward collapse.
The response?
Yank out the instruments and walk away.
That is not budgeting. That is smashing the gauges while the engine is on fire and calling it efficiency.
For what? The Trump administration dressed it up as a “nimbler approach” and “smart lifecycle management,” which is fancy nonsense for “we shut it off and hoped nobody would ask why.” There is no return-on-investment analysis. They cannot show taxpayers save a dime, because the gear is already paid for and the science it produces protects real money and real lives.
The kicker: the same people killing the monitors want to mine the deep sea for minerals. So they are destroying the only tools that could measure what that mining does. That is not an accident.
That is the point. You cannot see the damage if you break the instruments first.

BREAKING: "THE PRESIDENT IS ACTUALLY SUNDOWNING!" Star progressive commentator Kyle Kulinski delivers a knockout punch over "absolute madman" Trump's obvious cognitive decline.
Every single word of this is spot on...
"Here you have a top psychiatrist saying the only reason you would get three or four of these tests is because there's obviously a decline and you're tracking how f*cking fast the decline is happening. What the f*ck? Oh my god. I'm sorry, bro," said Kulinski, whose Youtube channel "Secular Talk" has 2.26 million subscribers and counting.
He was referring to the fact that Trump is constantly bragging about acing an incredibly simple cognitive test. It's a nonstandard thing for a perfectly healthy person to do and Trump keeps going back to take it again and again for some unexplained reason. The only rational explanation is that his doctors are worried that his mind is deteriorating. And judging by his increasingly incoherent, confused public remarks, they're right to worry.
"Our news environment and our information environment is so thoroughly f*cking broken that like this is I mean, I just I feel like this is not gonna go anywhere," he continued. "Nobody's gonna talk about this. Nobody's gonna do anything."
"It's just like the President is actually sundowning right in front of our eyes and like people are just sitting there watching it happen!" Kulinski said. "By the way, as I've told you a thousand times, there's gonna be the exposés that are gonna come out, the tell-alls that are gonna hit the shelves. After the Trump era is over, after Trump is dead and gone, after all the f*cking little disgusting sycophants around him are trying to save any relevance they have, the speed with which they will tell you everything they know is gonna be astonishing."
"And you're gonna hear that everybody knew that he had dementia, that he was sundowning, that he was dealing with Alzheimer's, that he had congestive heart failure, that he's dealing with strokes, that he's got all these physical and mental health issues, that he's not of sound mind and as he's not of sound mind, he's ordering f*cking airstrikes on schools and hospitals and bridges and steel plants, that as he's not of sound mind, he's ordering the opening of ICE concentration camps where we send immigrants to get tortured and raped," Kulinski said, really hitting his stride.
"Like this is what's gonna happen..." he continued. "We're gonna learn one day that like we literally let an absolute madman run roughshod over our Constitution and our country with no consequences whatsoever and we all just sat there cucked by him, right? We all just sat there and said, well, it is what it is. What can I do to stop it? It is gonna be a nightmare when we learn the depths of the depravity and how much he's able to get away with."
Mark his words well. When Trump is finally gone and his stench has been fumigated from the White House, everyone who enabled him will pretend that they were against him all along. His closest allies will rush to sell books detailing the most deranged and dangerous things thatthey saw behind closed doors.
When that happens, we can't allow them to mount their rehabilitation campaigns. Every politician and media figure who helped this President despoil, destroy, and loot our country must be ostracized from polite society for the remainder of their miserable, self-serving lives.

BREAKING: Hunter Biden enrages MAGA by penning a brilliant list of things that “most Americans agree on” and it’s as hilarious as it is brutal for Trump.
How many of these do YOU agree with?
Just wait till you get to the Epstein jab…
“Groceries cost too much,” the former President’s son wrote on X.
“Tariffs suck and make no sense.”
“Congress and Presidents shouldn’t trade stocks.”
“The debt is a mess.”
“The border should be secure, but legal immigration is good.”
“Endless wars are stupid, especially ones that nobody wants and have never been explained.”
“Americans are exhausted.”
“AI is like my new best friend that also might be trying to take my job, my ability to think for myself, and my humanity in the process. Yo like I love you, but WTF, but I still love you.”
“Diversity is actually awesome! The opposite is boring AF.”
“Canadians are super fucking cool.”
“Mexicans are chill.”
“Putin isn’t a good guy looking out for America’s best interest. Rocky IV and Miracle are great movies.”
“Good neighbors are a blessing.”
“Freedom of religion and coexistence without having to blow each other up is probably a good idea.”
“We all question, are we alone in the universe?”
We all fuck up along the way.
“Epstein didn’t hang himself.”
“The Trumps and Epstein were best friends for decades. It’s like Bert trying to tell us Ernie was just an acquaintance in the same social scene on Sesame Street back in the day.”
“The Cowboys suck. Go Birds!”
“Things we’re told to fight about: Me. Laptop. Vaccines. Transgenders in sports. Pronouns.”
“That’s the joke,” he concluded.
Hunter has been increasingly active on social media lately. He went viral for dismantling a MAGA cultist who absurdly accused his father of “faking” his bone cancer. In another witty exchange, he batted down a Republican’s attempt to shame him for his past drug abuse, causing her to turn empathetic and wish him well. He’s so good at this some have begun half-jokingly referring to him as the “MAGA whisperer.”
What would you add to Hunter’s list?
Please ❤️ and share if you’re a fan if Hunter!
These are all programs that Trump has cut funding for and I’m curious where all this money went! Why aren’t we asking questions. Why isn’t Congress asking questions! 🤬
🚨TRUMP CAN’T LIFT HIS ARM?
HOLY SHIT: Trump’s voice sounds unusually weak, he appears to be slurring some of his words, and he barely raises his right arm throughout the clip.
He does not look well at all. Something is seriously wrong with him and we deserve to know the truth.
BREAKING: Former Trump official Sarah Matthews reveals that CNN's Kaitlan Collins is the "one reporter" who "scares" Trump and that's why he attacks her.
This makes so much sense...
"I will say that during my time working as Deputy Press Secretary in the first Trump administration, Kaitlan Collins was the one reporter that scared Kayleigh McEnany and President Trump the most," Matthews said on CNN.
"There would be times where Kayleigh McEnany wouldn't even call on Kaitlan Collins at press conferences, at press briefings, because she didn't want to answer the questions. Because Kaitlan Collin is a very, very good reporter," she continued.
"She's the best at what she does and I think that's why you see Trump go after her more ferociously than any other reporter in that room," said Matthews.
And it's true. Trump regularly snaps at Collins for daring to ask the hard-hitting questions that the American people are most interested in. She doesn't shy away from the Epstein scandal, or the ongoing war, or any of the other countless scandals that bubble up daily. Rather than answer her directly, Trump will often insult her, her news outlet, or demand that she smile more. Yesterday, he melted down on her and said that she has "hatred in her eyes."
"And it is disgusting to watch him tell a woman that she needs to smile while doing her job," said Matthews. "I've seen Kaitlan smile plenty of times, but when she's asking someone a hard-hitting question, I don't think that that means that she has to smile while doing it."
"And he brings it up time and time again and it's these misogynistic attacks, not just against Kaitlan," Matthews went on. "You know, he told her today to be quiet while she tried to ask a follow-up question. We've seen him say, quiet piggy, to a female reporter. Another great female reporter, I will add, someone I worked with during my time in the first Trump administration."
By now, Trump's misogyny is well-documented. He's an adjudicated rapist who despises women and sees them as objects who are less than men. The mere idea of a woman challenging his authority enrages him.
"And so I wish that we, this wasn't normalized and that we weren't desensitized to this type of behavior from the President, but it really is appalling and I just want to give, you know, kudos to Kaitlan Collins," said Matthews.
"And he's, I mean, he called another reporter, said to her, are you stupid or something?" said political strategist Ana Navarro. "I mean, just, it's time after time after time. And I'll tell you, one of the things that really bothers me is that there is not more solidarity and outrage from the press in that room."
"I agree," said Matthews
"Because I would like to think that if I was in that room and my colleague was being treated that way, I would say, screw you, I'm leaving, you go ahead and you cover yourself," said Navarro. Leave yourself here with OAN and with Fox News and let that be what your national coverage is."
"And that's why I feel that it is so ridiculous and hypocritical for people to go sit at a White House Correspondents Dinner where Donald Trump is speaking and we are supposed to be celebrating the free press, when practically on a weekly basis, we have to hear his rants against women who are doing their jobs as journalists," Navarro added.
We couldn't agree more.
Please ❤️ and if you're a big fan of Kaitlan Collins!
Trump promised not to “touch” Medicaid.
Now he is cutting it by $1 trillion and taking health care away from patients with cancer, AIDS and other life-threatening diseases to pay for tax breaks to the top 1% and his wealthy campaign contributors.
Unimaginable cruelty.
This Is President Joe Biden who has aggressive stage 4 prostate cancer,who looks amazing at his beloved wife Jill’s book launch with his granddaughter.
BREAKING: Hunter Biden SHREDS the media's double standard toward the Trump family in one devastating post — and EVERY word is documented.
Hunter Biden just posted something on X that cuts right to the heart of America's broken media landscape — and it's IMPOSSIBLE to argue with.
"So let me get this straight," he wrote. "Jake Tapper is focused on attacking my Mom," referring to the comments the CNN anchor has made about disbelieving some of the claims in Jill Biden’s latest memoir.
"Meanwhile, Jared and Ivanka are building a private island paradise on Albanian protected land." TRUE. Over 100,000 Albanians are in the streets. Anti-corruption prosecutors have opened an investigation. Flamingo habitats are being bulldozed. It BARELY registers on mainstream media.
"Don Jr. married the daughter of Epstein's banker." Also TRUE. While Epstein survivors read their FBI abuse reports aloud outside the Justice Department, Pam Bondi refused to answer a even a SINGLE question about Trump and the Epstein files, and DOJ lawyers intervened to make sure she didn't.
"A startup that Donald Jr. fund backs just got a record $620 million Pentagon loan." FACTCHECK: ALSO TRUE. While Trump's own financial disclosures show him trading stock in companies his administration then hands billion-dollar contracts to, Don Jr.'s SHADY investment connections to Pentagon contractors receive almost NO scrutiny from mainstream media.
"Eric is taking an Israeli drone company public for $1.5 billion in the middle of a war with Iran that nobody wanted." Also TRUE, but that story got almost NO coverage.
And then Hunter Biden delivered the punchline that lands like a sledgehammer: "And I know: 'But what about your paintings, Hunter?'"
HUNTER IS 100% RIGHT: His art sales, laptop, and legal troubles consumed years of breathless media coverage. The Trump children's CORRUPT overseas business deals, foreign investments, Pentagon contracts, and connections to Jeffrey Epstein's associates a free pass.
And while Jake Tapper attacks Jill Biden is being attacked for a book, Jared Kushner is bulldozing protected wetlands for a $4 billion resort while his father-in-law runs foreign policy, while raising BILLIONS from shady deals with foreign governments.
There is simply NO comparison!

Jared and Ivanka are building a private island paradise on Albanian protected land.
Don Jr married the daughter of Epstein’s banker, and a startup his fund backs just got a record $620M Pentagon loan.
Eric is taking an Israeli drone company public for $1.5B in the middle of a war with Iran that nobody wanted.
And I know: “But what about your paintings, Hunter?”
Please.
