Texas Officials Slam Trump’s National Weather Service for Bad Forecast (archive.is)

Officials in Texas are casting blame on the National Weather Service (NWS) for failing to forecast catastrophic flooding that has killed 24 people.

NWS was among the government agencies targeted by the Trump administration in its effort to gut the federal bureaucracy, losing approximately 600 staffers.

After the cuts, the agency—which was already understaffed—began to prepare to offer “degraded” forecasting services, facing “severe shortages” of meteorologists, according to an internal document obtained by The New York Times in April.

No one is killing illegal immigrant kids. That's just some stupid circle jerk you guys have going on.

What the holy fucking shit is wrong with you? Did you seriously pop in here trying to pretend for a second to be some kind of holy pious victim and then immediately claim the only way a state murders is with gas chambers? How do you live with yourself? You are exactly the evil monster you claim to reject. What a disaster of a person.
