Some part of trumpistan will be hit by a hurricane. There will be no FEMA assistance. They'll blame it on Biden, Obama, Clinton or whoever those titans of intellectual thought on Fox "News" says is responsible.

@Crazywaterspring of course, TACO still blames everything of the African-American guy!

@Crazywaterspring I am hoping for a Category 5 to claim Mar a Lago as Ground Zero with the whole tRUMP Crime Family sheltering there!

We did a study years ago when Congress discussed cutting funding for hurricane hunting aircraft. We were able to prove that the lack of data from those flights would result in potential costs far exceeding the cost of the aircraft operations. Lack of data means a wider "hurricane warning" zone, resulting in petrochemical plant shutdowns/restarts and other costly measures. I wonder what the implications of this satellite data loss might be.

@exexec Yes. When I was stationed at Keesler AFB where the Hurricane Hunters operated from I met many of their pilots, aircrews, maintainers, ground crew, etc.
Remember this stupid policy is being authorized by someone who—in his first administration (I reserve my term “misadministration” for his current term because, unknown to him, there were effective people in his first cabinet and staff that averted much of his damage & danger)—wanted to nuke hurricanes. It doesn’t get much more deranged than that!

@KunsanVeteran My father was at Keesler Field in WWII before being transferred to Moody Field to train B-24 personnel.

Who needs data and forecasters, when all you need is a sharpie?

Add that to gutting FEMA this is going to be interesting to watch!

@samueltyler2 I think I would describe it with a vastly different word than “interesting,” but I get your point.

The radical right cares nothing about data, or for that matter anything except lining their pockets.
