This is one i don't get. Everyone benefits from weather forecasting, even trump.
I read yesterday they're already talking with private companies to replace it. So they know it's important, but it's about the grift and extracting money for themselves and their friends.
they're selling off the real estate after they fired all the workers and shutdown offices, privatizing everything and anything they can.
this is The Looting of America, Turbofuck 9000 Mode™.
The plan has always been to sell the NWS to AccuWeather
There's a last week tonight about it.
The ideology that is currently in power is one where government is inherently bad, always. It doesn't matter that people benefit, that is literally not part of the equation.

The only way this will be redeeming is when the red counties get hosed with bad weather with no ability to predict it and then when it fucks them, no FEMA or government help to clean up from it. I'm not thrilled about losing weather but I'm at least looking for the silver lining.
Eliminating every visable service of the gov so you don't notice when nothings being done.
Don't worry, trump can predict the weather while he's on the golf course
