If Trump can disappear green card holders for protesting war, he can disappear you. If he can disappear visa holders for criticizing him, he can disappear you. If he can disappear asylum seekers for tattoos, he can disappear you. We must speak out now — before there is no one…

NOAA is reportedly on the DOGE chopping block. The National Weather Service, which is part of NOAA, provides life saving weather forecasting in the US. A study found that for every $1 invested in NWS, it produces $73 in value to Americans. Again, this isn't about efficiency.

What's worse than a racist, misogynist, lying, vindictive, narcissistic blithering idiot? One with power, backed by ultra-rich people milking him for profit.

Kudos to @ATT for having the worst website support, and crappiest "AI" support triage (you clearly state the problem, it asks you over and over for information you just provided, then fails to connect you with an agent.) Also: an email to affected customers would go a long way.

Phone service down on @ATT. Phone shows only SOS. Absolutely useless website cannot provide any information. Everything hangs. Chats are down. Service info is down. What total crap.
