Summary
Elon Musk’s staffers entered NOAA and the Department of Commerce without clearance, raising concerns over budget cuts and downsizing.
Project 2025, a conservative plan linked to former Trump officials, calls for dismantling NOAA, citing its climate research as harmful to U.S. prosperity.
Critics warn such cuts could impact weather forecasting, ocean conservation, and fisheries.
NOAA declined to comment, while experts fear an aggressive strategy to weaken the agency before legal challenges can halt changes.
Rejoice people! We will no longer be terrorized by weather alerts reporting possibly devastating weather events! Trump’s Redhats led by his South African immigrant billionaire henchman will make sure that Trump’s Sharpy of Truth will protect us!
I mean, if a hurricane is coming, you can always nuke it, right?
It’s easier to just use a Sharpie to make the hurricane love.
