[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Reporter: Do you think the federal government needs to hire back any of the meteorologists who were fired?

Trump: I would think not. This was a thing that happened in seconds. No one expected it. Nobody saw it. Very talented people are there, they didn’t see it[/quote]

None of this is true, Trump is lying, understaffing and underresourcing agencies, and getting people killed.[/quote]

And the same is happening with other science and data based agencies that keep Americans safe - EPA, NIH, and so on.  Trump and the Republicans act like it's all just a game, doesn't matter to gut agencies as long as they make their deranged megadonors rich and happy. [/quote]

Oh, like these megadonors?  I see Blue as well as Red.
