Maddow details all scientific advancements that Trump is trying to hide from Americans

[Soph0571]

“The Trump administration has refused to publicize dozens of government-funded studies that carry warnings about the effects of climate change, defying a longstanding practice of touting such findings by the Agriculture Department’s acclaimed in-house scientists,” Politico reported.

“The studies range from a groundbreaking discovery that rice loses vitamins in a carbon-rich environment — a potentially serious health concern for the 600 million people world-wide whose diet consists mostly of rice — to a finding that climate change could exacerbate allergy seasons to a warning to farmers about the reduction in quality of grasses important for raising cattle,” Politico concluded.

Maddow put it into context.

“Scientists at that agency today have produced a whole litany of super consequential super practical stuff about climate change that the Trump Administration has been trying to ka-bosh and ensure that the findings from scientists never get distribute and never get publicized,” Maddow noted.

A reality free administrations don't need no pesky facts...

1. Rachel also emphasized how the candidates are stressing their respect for science.

Rachel (we call her Rachel here) also emphasized how the Democratic candidates are competing against each other to be regarded as the candidate most concerned about climate change.

2. A govt that hides the truth from the PEOPLE is not a legitimate government. . . . nt

3. Her lead piece about this was SO important...and so depressing. Trump turns

everything he touches to sh*t.

4. I kept shaking my head during that

Couldn't Hair Fuerhrer just leave that kind of thing alone? How much does he have to wreck?

5. In order to establish authoritarianism

An authoritarian must call into question all knowledge and every legitimate pursuit of knowledge except that which comes from his own sources inside the Oval Office. Thus, his attacks on journalism, Obama-appointed justices, scientists, research universities and his political opposition.

In short, he has to wreck everything. It's his duty as a dictator.

6. Yup

He'll replace the scientists who are leaving with toadies who have no scientific ability but will produce scientific-like works showing that climate change is not happening. More Fake News.

9. 100% correct

Just look, read about dictatorships, they eliminate education, then replace it with new books that distort history, science, and all new education is geared to indoctrinate kids for them to grow adoring the regime, believing there is nothing else.

For a dictatorship to flourish they need the masses to be as ignorant as possible, they need them to believe that what is being done to them is in their own benefit, they create enemies, in this case Iran.

What is coming is even worst because one of the things they do as well is to create a militia to protect the regime, these are non-military people, well armed, vicious, with not regard for the rule of law or humanity, to them everyone is an enemy.

It is the same methodology all the time, divide and conquer, make the news be the enemy of the people, create controversy all day to keep your opposition on their toes running around not knowing what to attack, what to save, and I hate to say it, but the buffoon is playing his cards well in that respect, while Nancy Pelosi continues to ponder whether to impeach or not.

I feel that our only safeguard is the military, but only if, and only if, they don't become corrupt themselves, and if you study dictatorships you will find that the military does fall in check with the regime. Because USA citizens are heavily armed, I feel there will be a lot of blood on the streets when the shit hits the fan and people realize they have been had.

We are walking on very thin ice, and I cannot understand why the Democratic leaders don't understand it. My neighbour who is a cinic has told me many times "nothing happens because the democrats are in it too.". I don't want to believe that, but we need action, we need to see action that stops the chaos we are in.

12. Your neighbor

I hope you can convince your neighbor that there is one clear choice, and that is to defend the Constitution by supporting Democrats in every governing body, independent non-partisan journalists, public school students and teachers, union members, workers and legitimate scientific inquiry on every subject. (Incomplete list, I'm sure, but you get the idea.)

There is no throwing one's hands in the air and pretending "both sides" are culpable in this drift toward autocracy, theocracy and totalitarianism.

Our neighbors may remain cynics, but we can't stop trying to convince people of the insidious "both-sides" false equivalency that cost Hillary Clinton the presidency and that possibly cost all of us our freedom.

Resist.

7. and we let 88 universities support 260 limbaugh stations as they deny global warming

those schools have no excuses to keep broadcasting sports on radio stations that have played a huge part in delaying action, attacking scientists, supporting trump, and setting all this up

88 universities that need to be protested and would be good places to protest anything trump and republican

[Perseus]

8. This was being done behind the scenes, hidden from people

Imagine all the stuff they are doing behind the scenes that we don't know about and Pelosi is still debating in her head if to impeach or not.

I am not sure what is in Pelosi's head, but the longer she waits to impeach the greater the damage. We know the Nazi Stephen Miller was going behind the ICE people giving orders and sending "news" to a pseudo newspaper to publish fake news about the situation at the "Concentration Camps" the have the kids and their families jailed.

Impeachment proceedings MUST begin, this is going very slow, we don't even know what Muller is going to say, we also have to wait until July 17 to hear from him and so far what we have heard from all these people has not been the truth, I am not questioning Muller yet about his sincerity but I do question his lack of patriotism to come forward and explain everything, to tell on Barr, how Barr stopped the investigation, how Barr misrepresented the findings. You either love and respect your country or you don't but you don't sit on the sideline watching its destruction, and that is also what Pelosi is doing by not impeaching. For Muller to not come out firing would mean he is also willing to watch the destruction from the sidelines, same as with all the other traitors who have testified but said nothing.

That is why I have never believed in politicians who put the flag on their lapels, it is the same with religious people who spend all day praying and preaching, it is a feel good action to mentally make their treasonous behaviour and their antichrist behaviour hide from their psyche, but in fact most of them are traitors and bad people, its like taking a modern medicine that doesn't cure, it only hides the symptom.

10. And trying to relocate their positions to Kansas City

Not sure if it was this show or an earlier one. But Trump admin was trying to move all the AG Dept scientists positions to Kansas City. Thus forcing resignations that could be filled with Trump toadie scientists.
