Project 2025 aims to eliminate NOAA which makes sense because all you need to track a hurricane is a sharpie

A simple reminder of the incompetence, idiocy, and insanity that was the Trump presidency. Here's the original story, in case you forgot:

a lot of P25 seems either to be 1) fuck minorities or 2) petty vengeance
This, but boring
As well as Christian sharia law and corporate greed. It's horrifying and we'll be too mired in a fascist hellhole to get to enjoy the fact that they'll have ended the US as a world power, which will fuck them over, too.
At least Gilead cared about pollution and environmental sustainability...
I heard that the house of representatives has a proposed law where only citizens born in the USA can vote.
Because fuck minorities.

Real Human Ted Cruz, who was ~~hatched~~ born in Canada might not be too thrilled about that 😄
One thing I've heard but haven't checked yet is that it's surprisingly pro gmo
Why wouldn't it be? A lot of under-informed liberals automatically hate them, and their potential for owner donor profits when under-regulated is enormous.
Things like the fact that, if used right, they're the best weapon we have against the coming climate change caused starvation doesn't factor into GOP calculations. Because they don't plan to even TRY feeding anyone not paying them a premium for it.
People that hate GMO usually don't get to explain why, or don't understand why liberals might be against them. But the truth is that people that know don't hate the genetic altering parts so much as why those parts are altered.
It's the pesticide.
That's almost always why there's a GMO.
GMOs suck when farmers get sued by big corporations, because they were sowing seeds that grew on their plot. All because corporations can patent DNA sequences.
Yeah, that's a good example of the under-regulation I was referring to. It's patently insane that they're allowed to do that, pun not intended but welcomed.
