Hurricane Helene: Deploy the Sharpies & Nuclear Weapons (and don’t say climate change)

September 27th, 2024 · Comments Off on Hurricane Helene: Deploy the Sharpies & Nuclear Weapons (and don’t say climate change)

As Hurricane Helene devastates much of the Southeast, hitting hard a state whose governor (and government) has banned the words “climate change” from most official documents, some might be wondering when President Biden will pull out a sharpie and whether nuclear weapons are being discussed in the White House Situation Room. For any failing to […]

“Basically means no windows …”

July 15th, 2020 · Comments Off on “Basically means no windows …”

Amid his Rose Garden ranting against (soon to be President) Joe Biden yesterday, Trump went after Biden’s Build Back Better powerful Clean Energy plan. Evincing his normal shallow ignorance and gaslighting bravado, Trump fumbled through fossil-foolish talking points. Amid this, Trump attacked Biden’s call for a move toward net zero buildings. Of course the facts […]

#FFS #Trump: #Coronavirus + #Climate Science Denial in one Tweet

March 16th, 2020 · Comments Off on #FFS #Trump: #Coronavirus + #Climate Science Denial in one Tweet

While every day of the Trump presidency has been painful and with life-threatening implications (from climate change to reduced medical care to children freezing in cages), the Coronavirus pandemic has accelerated the pace and expanded the nature of that pain.  It is hard to see anything in public discourse without being reminded of the pain […]

Gok isn’t Grok (Or, Dept. of Interior Climate Science Denial)

March 2nd, 2020 · Comments Off on Gok isn’t Grok (Or, Dept. of Interior Climate Science Denial)

“To grok something” states a deep understanding and implies an incorporation of actual knowledge so deeply “that it has become part of you, part of your identity”. “To Gok something” is a far newer and far more hazardous entry into the lexicon: to introduce uncertainty and deceit into scientific discussion about life and death issues.

Trumpian climate science denial: a national security affair

February 20th, 2019 · Comments Off on Trumpian climate science denial: a national security affair

Trump’s inane rejection of climate science (and, well, fundamental statement that he is clueless about the most basic concepts of science and the scientific method) are well known, provide a comedic statement about what has become core Republican dogma, and sadly occupy the Oval Office. In all seriousness, it seemed on 5 November 2016 that […]

.@RealDonaldTrump tweets #climate #science denial day after @WashPost @CapitalWeather warns of this standard denial idiocy

December 28th, 2017 · 2 Comments

The classic climate science denial line: it’s cold outside, we really could use some of that global warming … It is such a standard tactic that the Washington Post’s Capital Weather gang, in association with warnings of serious (record-breaking (in many cases)) cold descending on the East Coast, warned against this. U.S. to be coldest […]

“Have you no sense of decency, sir?” Trump Cabinet member slanders 20,000 civil servants

September 26th, 2017 · Comments Off on “Have you no sense of decency, sir?” Trump Cabinet member slanders 20,000 civil servants

In American politics, one of the most powerful and memorable lines from a US Civil Servant must be when the U.S. Army’s chief counsel, Joseph Nye Welch, challenged Senator Joe McCarthy at a hearing (a McCarthyite inquisition). Let us not assassinate this lad further, Senator. You’ve done enough. Have you no sense of decency, sir? […]

Documenting Trump Administration Silencing of Climate Science

September 18th, 2017 · 2 Comments

Donald Trump’s and his GOP acolytes anti-science attitudes created a flurry of activity in the interregnum prior to their White House occupation to capture key U.S. government science (especially climate science) information on servers accessible to the world’s researchers (and, well, everyone with internet access) that are outside U.S. government control (good example/discussion). In the […]

Trump might (MIGHT) not be leaving Paris Accords … Should we care?

September 16th, 2017 · Comments Off on Trump might (MIGHT) not be leaving Paris Accords … Should we care?

The ‘breaking news’, according to an EU official and Wall Street Journal reporting, Donald Trump and @TeamTrump might act (yet again) in ways to piss off their #MAGA-frothing base. After announcing, in front of a sweating audience of fossil fools on the White House lawn, that the United States would be leaving the Paris Accords, […]

#Trump’s @EPA to #Flint: let the #bedbugs bite (to scientists: don’t study/mention #climate change)

September 5th, 2017 · 1 Comment

As if Trump weren’t bad enough, The United States is currently experiencing a nightmarish epidemic of disgusting blood sucking parasites, and no, I am not talking about our politicians.  There is a full blown bed bug epidemic happening all across America and it just seems to get worse with each passing year. What is Team […]
