DOGE Further Guts NOAA, Slashing Weather Forecasting & Climate Research

DOGE (Department of Government EXTINCTION) TRACKER UPDATE

If You Believe in This Fight, Help Keep It Alive

The DOGE Tracker Update is right below, but before that I need just a moment:

This work isn’t backed by corporations. There are no ads, no paywalls, no billionaires funding it.

It’s just one person, fighting like hell to expose the truth and give you the weapons to push back.

If you value this work—if you want this movement to keep growing, keep calling out fascism without fear, and keep fighting for the future we deserve—then I need your support.

Join the fight. Become a supporter. Every contribution keeps this mission alive.

Because silence is surrender. We do not surrender. We are #TheRelentless.

DOGE v. Science & Research

🔴 UPDATE: March 3, 2025

The Trump administration is gutting the nation’s weather forecasting and climate research capabilities by canceling NOAA’s leases for key facilities. The move, orchestrated by DOGE, threatens public safety, economic stability, and scientific integrity.

🚨 Key Developments:

• NOAA Facilities on the Chopping Block – DOGE is terminating leases for crucial NOAA buildings, including the Center for Weather and Climate Prediction in Maryland, which houses top meteorologists and climate scientists.

• Severe Disruptions to Weather Forecasting – These facilities play a critical role in national weather prediction. Without them, early warnings for hurricanes, tornadoes, and other disasters will be severely compromised.

• Massive Layoffs at NOAA – Up to 50% of NOAA’s workforce faces termination, further crippling the nation’s ability to monitor and predict severe weather and climate trends.

• Sweeping Lease Cancellations Across Agencies – NOAA isn’t the only target. DOGE, through the GSA, is slashing leases across multiple federal science and research institutions, crippling vital government functions.

🔍 Why This Matters:

• Public Safety at Risk – Emergency management agencies, farmers, airlines, and countless industries rely on NOAA’s forecasts to prepare for extreme weather. Slashing its resources endangers lives and livelihoods.

• Economic Consequences – The U.S. economy loses billions annually to weather-related disasters. Weakening NOAA’s capabilities will make these losses even worse.

• War on Science Continues – This is part of a broader attack on federal research, following earlier cuts to scientific agencies under Trump. Disabling NOAA is yet another step in dismantling fact-based governance.

🚨 The Bottom Line:
Trump’s administration is actively dismantling America’s ability to track and respond to extreme weather, putting lives at risk for the sake of ideological and budgetary warfare. The consequences of this reckless assault on science will be felt for years to come.
