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.
People relied on Twitter? That doesn’t sound right.
At the time it was used by a lot of entities (including several government agencies in various countries) for alerting.
A lot of companies still use it for customer relations, sadly.
