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.

I was today old when I learnt that Charlie Pickering took it upon himself to be interviewed by Avi Yemini. One week after he took the job of Melbourne Drive radio host on ABC.
As life choices go, Mr Pickering has certainly misjudged his audience, his community and his luck.

The WHINGING after Albo announced a pay rise for four million workers.

Someone on $200,000 a year WHINGING that someone on $50,000 gets a pay rise.

Call themselves Australians.

No wonder they love Hanson.

Cause love to WHINGE and HATE and be fucking NEGATIVE!

Stop whinging!!

Get a life!!!

Fuck off to America where Hansons hero Trump has taken food assistance from 4 million people.

Taken all healthcare from over 20 million or more as the true amount is unknown as that’s how ramshackled their health system is.

WHINGE! WHINGE! WHINGE!!

[Dirtyleftie @CraigSarg73]

Let’s put that into perspective:

Pauline Hanson received a pay rise worth around $100,000 a year a 42.5% increase while reportedly attending only 53% of Senate votes.

At the same time, she opposed a pay rise of around $3,000 for some of Australia’s lowest-paid workers.

A six-figure increase for politicians, but objections when working Australians get a modest boost to help with rising costs.

Where’s the media outrage? Where’s the scrutiny?

#TonyAbbott currently receives a $500,000 salary for sitting on the board of US-based FOX NEWS which pushed Trump into office. Abbott is also an adviser for the right-wing advocacy group, ADVANCE. This group is bankrolled by GINA RINEHART.
