BREAKING: Hurricane #Milton achieves Category 5 intensity per the National Hurricane Center, capping one of the more extreme rapid intensification events we’ve seen, only about 49 hours after forming as a tropical depression.

We got hit by Hurricane Debby up by the Canadian border, no one is safe from climate change.

It’s worth saying that the forecasts from NOAA’s National Hurricane Center are an absolutely vital, life-saving national resource. It would be a tragedy if Trump’s Project 2025 plan to disembowel NOAA and commercialize all its forecasting operations came to fruition.

if you’re wondering why JD Vance doesn’t think childcare is expensive, it’s because his mother-in-law dropped her professorship to become a live-in nanny, as he believes “post-menopausal females” should do. he also suggested that otherwise, she should’ve paid for their childcare.

Host: That's the whole purpose of the postmenopausal female in theory. Did your in-laws and particularly your mother-in-law show up in some huge way?

Vance: She lived with us for a year.

Host: Right. I didn't know the answer there. So that's this weird unadvertised feature of marrying an Indian woman.

Vance: Yeah. It's in some ways the most transgressive thing I've ever done against sort of the hyper-neoliberal approach to work and family. My wife had this baby seven weeks before she started the clerkship. Still not sleeping any more than an hour and a half in a given interval. And her mom just took a sabbatical. She's a biology professor in California. Just took a sabbatical for a year and came and lived with us and took care of our kid for you. It was just one of those things where it's like, this is what you do.

Host: So a biology professor Ph.D…

Vance: Yes.

Host: Drops what they're doing…

Vance: Yeah!


Host: To immediately tend to the needs of a new mother with her infant.

This is one that I genuinely think will be printed in history books one day to show how insane American media culture became. CBS News presenting ethnic cleansing as a housing policy to be compared with home construction tax incentives.

Q: Mr Trump says climate change is a hoax. Is that true? Vance: Solar panels make the climate dirtier because of China, and if you cared about climate change, which isn't real, you'd make solar power more expensive through tariffs, as I said
