      They know. They’re OK with it. In fact, many millions of Americans are OK with it.

          It states that the ideal population size is 100 million. So… Unless they’re going to deport the “excess” …

          Edit forgot three 0s, oops.

            So they want America full of only the super rich? So that’s why he doing all of this. They do know climate change is real, and they are loving it. Because they (the unhinged ones) believe Jesus will return if they accomplish this. Remember the project 2025 plan was funded by religious organizations. Fucking insane. I do hope we won’t just sit back and allow that to happen?

            Wnen do we revolt and fight back?

    How is this not blatantly illegal? How can anybody with a brain not understand the massive problems this is going to cause?

      I would not be surprised if news about hurricanes hitting are suppressed in national media, and social media gets censored for any mention of problems. The narrative and optics are much more important for them than victims and damages.

      Why does legality matter? Laws are set by the government, why do you expect a fascist one to be beholden to them?

    It’s the Hurricane Surprise Season from now on.

    No forecasts, no evac orders (which politicians hate, anyway, and a lot of people simply ignore).

    So, no saildrones to monitor surface conditions, and now no realtime satellites. We have to rely on Japan to get those images.

    The knockout punch will be when they don’t allow NOAA to fly the hurricane hunters.

      There are still a couple satellites operated by Canada and the EU that provide hurricane data to the US…until something fucks that up too, I guess.
