So much for the National Weather Service
Joe Ferguson forever replied to Roundybout's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Perhaps you blow it off when your car radio blares from a NWS warning. I sit bolt upright. But then again, you’re an ignorant maga Bs. Asheville is heavily D. No one ignored it. Wouldn’t have mattered which party was over represented when a decent human was president -

Hey moron - who is saying those 800 “cuts” (probationary positions and early retirements nationwide) directly impacted the work in South Texas this week. Then explain North Carolina and the 98 deaths that occurred under Biden during their flooding last year. And the bang up job FEMA did ignoring the aftermath. -
Maxwell Hairston named in civil lawsuit for sexual assault

A civil suit does not have to be either a money grab or a pursuit of justice. It’s not a one or the other construct. Wherever someone lies on the continuum, the presence of wealth makes the pursuit more attractive, more reasonable, when evaluating the cost in terms of time, effort and fees. Many civil actions don’t arise in the absence of wealth because of the cost to the injured party to bring suit. -

Oh, you want specifics? Great - let's walk through what your guy cut while pretending to care about public safety. Roughly 800-880 positions were eliminated under Trump’s DOGE initiative - many were forecasting roles, including probationary meteorologists being trained to staff local NWS offices. 30+ forecast offices, including major hubs like Houston, were left understaffed - some with no chief meteorologist, no balloon launches, and no functioning radar equipment. NOAA’s Office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research got hit with a 74% budget cut - gutting hurricane modeling, storm tracking, and climate risk research. Crucial satellite data access was restricted - directly impacting night-time storm prediction. The NWS itself admitted “degraded forecasting capacity” after these cuts - it’s all public record. You're asking “Where’s the info?” while standing ankle-deep in it. Just because your media bubble didn’t shout it at you doesn’t mean it didn’t happen. And now you know why so many Americans died under Trump 1.0 too - he made critical cuts to our pandemic preparedness, fired experts, and ignored the playbook left for him. Same pattern: gut the systems, ignore the warnings, blame everyone else when disaster hits. So yes lives were lost because of these cuts. You asked. Now you know. You want more info? Do your own research instead of demanding to be spoon-fed like every other MAGA ditz. -

I don’t know why this is even a question. The person who was harmed deserves to decide what to do with anything rewarded as a result. That is plain as day to me, and I don’t even see any gray area. -

Ask this Anti Trump “journalist” what those people allegedly missing could have done to prevent this You can make the argument that there is overkill with storm watches and warnings has led to too many people just ignoring them. That’s an argument made by the Meteorologist below. *NWS Austin/San Antonio had five on staff during the event; normally two would be on duty. Extra staffing was planned before the event started. *This type of flash flooding on the Guadalupe River is nothing new. Similar events happened in 1998, 1978, 1935, and 1921. This year's event was related to deep moisture from a tropical system (Barry) that originated in the East Pacific and made landfall near Tampico, Tamaulipas, Mexico, on June 29. Social scientists will do much research on this in coming months and years. In my opinion one of the primary problems is the high number of false alarms; flash flood warnings that are issued with only minor flooding involved. This is also a problem with tornadoes in many parts of the country. I am very thankful locally NWS Birmingham leads the nation in lowering the false alarm ratio. -

What positions were not filled thus failed in this event? We should know this immediately - that info would be public instantly. “We were down such and such due to positions not being filled.” Where is that info that that is the reason this happened? -

lol u know how I get Mike. Im skittish *giggles* and NOT hungover 😄 -
I think of what Claypool is saying is accurate, it would be foolish for the Bills not to at least extend him a TC invite/tryout. If he got a long with Josh, the other guys in the WR room and elsewhere on the team he could fit right back in. There's definitely room to improve at the WR spot and all indications last year was that his attitude issues were not showing and he was doing well. At an invite just to see where she's at, let your docs check him out...why the heck not?

The Browns are officially leaving Cleveland again
DrBob806 replied to Gregg's topic in The Stadium Wall
The Browns' last 30 years have been awful, but learn your history. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/game_query.cgi The problem with saying they've always been a crap team is, well, they have a winning record vs the Bills. -

I’m still waiting. You make a claim like that - should be easy to explain to us just refer to your “sources.” Who was cut? -

Oh, this is rich you treat Juanita Broaddrick like gospel, but can’t be bothered to research DOGE? Do your own homework, or is everyone lying to you? -
