As a warming planet delivers more extreme weather, experts warn that the Trump administration is dismantling the government’s disaster capabilities.
In an effort to shrink the federal government, President Trump and congressional Republicans have taken steps that are diluting the country’s ability to anticipate, prepare for and respond to catastrophic flooding and other extreme weather events, disaster experts say.
Staff reductions, budget cuts and other changes made by the administration since January have already created holes at the National Weather Service, which forecasts and warns of dangerous weather.
Mr. Trump’s budget proposal for the next fiscal year would close 10 laboratories run by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration that research the ways a warming planet is changing weather, among other things. That work is essential to more accurately predicting life-threatening hazards. Among the shuttered labs would be one in Miami that sends teams of “hurricane hunters” to fly into storms to collect critical data. The proposed budget would also make major cuts to a federal program that uses river gauges to predict floods.
The president is also envisioning a dramatically scaled-down Federal Emergency Management Agency that would shift the costs of disaster response and recovery from the federal government to the states. The administration has already revoked $3.6 billion in grants from FEMA to hundreds of communities around the country, which were to be used to help these areas protect against hurricanes, wildfires and other catastrophes. About 10 percent of the agency’s staff members have left since January, including senior leaders with decades of experience, and another 20 percent are expected to be gone by the end of this year.
The White House and agency leaders say they are making much-needed changes to bloated bureaucracies that no longer serve the American public well.
FEMA, for one, “has been slow to respond...

This article is a four bagger.
Think of how many flood victims could have been saved with a couple billion more spent on climate change studies…..at least as many as Biden saved in NC
Pure Bullshi...er...Bull Dorkbamastuff.
Anyone believing the tripe coming from that makeshift journalist collection really needs help.
The leftist lies never stop coming from the old grey whore. If they published that the sun rose in the east I’d get up before sunrise every day for a month to make sure it hadn’t switched to rising in the west.
Nope.
The report that you reference about Women’s Sufferage destroying the West is FAR MORE IMPORTANT than the ‘climate science’ garbage article.
Must be a union shop
“ Miami that sends teams of “hurricane hunters” to fly into storms to collect critical data”
Don’t think Miami sends in HH S
Weather is weather you accept it and move on but these idiots scream , yell and pull their hair out ,LOL
Gutting Client Change Science? Go, Trump, go!
Experts warn...

As is known, Liberal White Women are the gravest threat to this Republic.
How much money does the NYT get from the CCP?
NOAA Temperature Adjustments Correlate Exactly with the Rise in CO2 - Big Surprise
Thermometers show the US cooling since about 1920, but NOAA massively cools the past to create the appearance of a warming trend. These adjustments make a spectacular hockey stick of data tampering. When plotted against atmospheric CO2, the correlation is almost perfect. NOAA is tampering with the data exactly to match their theory.
NOAA Radiosonde Data Shows No Warming For 58 Years March 7, 2016
NOAA Fiddles With Climate Data To Erase The 15-Year Global Warming ‘Hiatus’ 6/4/2015
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration scientists have found a solution to the 15-year “pause” in global warming: They “adjusted” the hiatus in warming out of the temperature record. New climate data by NOAA scientists doubles the warming trend since the late 1990s by adjusting pre-hiatus temperatures downward and inflating temperatures in more recent years.
GISS US tampering.NOAA = Fake Science!
Go, Trump! Kill the fraud, waste and abuse.
How do they explain the Biden administrations unpreparedness and slipshod aid efforts for the hurricane last year?
