Yesterday I told you the government is pulling 900 ocean monitoring instruments out of the water.
Here is the part that should make every American angry, regardless of where you stand on climate.
Congress voted to fund this network. Not once. Twice. The Trump administration proposed cutting it by 80 percent in 2025. Congress restored the money. Proposed the same cut in 2026. Congress restored the money again.
So the administration labeled it a "descope" and ordered the instruments pulled anyway.
That is not a budget disagreement. That is an executive branch telling the legislative branch that its votes do not matter. The public paid for this infrastructure. Congress protected it. One office in Washington decided the public should not have it.
This is the pattern I document in 𝑾𝒆 𝑨𝒓𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑩𝒂𝒅 𝑮𝒖𝒚𝒔. It is not about left or right. It is about who decides what Americans are allowed to know about their own planet.
Who should make that call?
Il nucleare non è la soluzione al problema energetico attuale.
A. Ci vogliono 10 anni per fare una centrale nucleare di ultima generazione e c'è il problema scorie
B. Nel frattempo chi paga?
C. Per Meloni è solo guerra alle rinnovabili.

AI data centers will use up enough clean water for 1.3 billion people by the year 2030 according to a United Nations report.
We CAN live without data centers, we CAN'T live without clean water.
My father was hospitalized when he fell down the stairs, got Covid in hospital, and his then-mild dementia accelerated with extreme rapidity, and he died within the year.
My story is not unique. How many millions of people is this happening to?
Whenever someone says “According to ChatGPT” or “ChatGPT says,” I just stare at them like they’re quoting a fortune cookie as sacred truth. It’s a language model, not the Oracle. Stop treating it like divine revelation.
Can we clap for the Albanians please? Over 100,000 of them took to the streets, shut down the capital protesting Maga Jared Kushner & Maga Ivanka Trump. Protecting their sacred lands from these vampires

Dice la nota de la familia: "Marjane Satrapi murió de tristeza poco más de un año después del fallecimiento de Mattias Ripa, su marido y el amor de su vida".

You can't solve problems you refuse to measure.
Yet this month, 900 ocean monitoring instruments are being physically pulled out of the water. A $368 million system. A decade to build. Designed to run 15 more years.
Gone.
This network tracked hurricane intensity, coastal flooding, marine heatwaves, and sea level rise. The data was free, public and used in over 500 scientific publications. Congress tried to stop it... twice. They got overruled anyway.
For a coastal community like FL-13 that just lived through Helene, this isn't abstract. This is the difference between an evacuation order that comes in time and one that doesn't.
Florida deserves a representative who fights for the science that protects us, not one who looks the other way while it gets dismantled.
