    I was inclined to write-off sharpie-gate as just Trump being an idiot (something that is not news). But the fact that Trump is getting essential government agencies to go along with his lies is news -- important news.https://twitter.com/danpfeiffer/status/1170344462746189825 …

    When the agency that tracks hurricanes is forced to lie about a hurricane track because of a Presidential temper tantrum, we are reaching the point of no return https://twitter.com/akarl_smith/status/1170083784680718339 …

        The Star Trek TNG episode "Chain Of Command" has felt very relevant lately

        It's not the agencies as much as the personnel he puts in place to support his BS. Julie Roberts (the likely source for this) worked on the Trump campaign before working at NOAA.pic.twitter.com/vVLloRSGUq

        He put them there to destroy agencies starting with credibility. Then privatize.

        Is it actually a lie though? All trump said, when he held up the slide was that previous predictions had the hurricane possibly hitting Alabama - but that was no longer going to happen and it was going to go north, which it did. There were some predicted paths going that way.

        People freaking out about this hurricane chart is very bizarre. Trump didn't say the storm was going to go that way, all he said was that in the past, the storm had been predicted to go that way - but that it had changed direction i.e. "look how lucky we are."

        If @madow's A block last night is true, the military is bending to his wishes and spending millions of dollars propping up an airport needed for one of his resorts to stay open. When the military is bending to him, it's time to be afraid.
