Then again, maybe not.

Other major changes are expected at MSNBC. In January, Rachel Maddow, the network's best-known anchor, returned to hosting her 9 p.m. show five days a week during the first 100 days of the Trump administration after having scaled back to only Mondays. At the time, the network said that Alex Wagner, who had hosted the 9 p.m. show four days a week, would return at the end of April.
"He commented more than once that, 'You know, Hitler did some good things, too,'" Kelly recalled to The Times. Kelly said he would usually quash the conversation by saying "nothing (Hitler) did, you could argue, was good," but that Trump would occasionally bring up the topic again.

I got about half way through. Does she offer alternatives?

Yeah, tighten the fucking border so you can take care of your own citizens first and they won't shit can you when voting like everywhere else. Then you can enact laws like no rent increases for 5 years after the sale of an apartment building to stymie the venture capitalist scum.

A settlement has been reached in a $30 million lawsuit against NBC and MSNBC.
In Sept 2020, before people would be going to the polls in the 2020 Presidential election they ran with an unverified "whistleblower" allegation that an individual, who they labeled as the "uterus collector", was performing unnecessary mass hysterectomies on immigrant women in a Georgia ICE detention facility.
2 medically necessary hysterectomies, 1 due to cancer, had been performed.

"And the reporters who wrote the story — Jacob Soboroff and Julia Ainsley — shared concerns.
It doesn’t “sound like they have much beyond the complaint,” Soboroff texted Ainsley in September, according to court documents.
“Only two hysterectomies?” Ainsley reportedly replied."

Christopher Scholl was the NBC standards deputy.
"“She [the whistleblower] has no direct knowledge of what she’s claiming, is unable to name the doctor involved (if I understood correctly), and we are unable to verify any of it or determine whether there really is a story here,” Scholl said in an email. “Essentially, it boils down to a single source — with an agenda — telling us things we have no basis to believe are true.”

The journalists gonna journalism agenda was obviously 2020 Presidential election votes.

MSNBC terminates, of course, Joy Reid.

We’ve been down this road before but the 97% “consensus” is that there is at least some degree of man made climate change. Within that 97% there are many different schools of thought, models, and projected outcomes. There is still a lot we are learning about weather patterns and long term cooling and warming cycles.

There’s a school of thought now that the much cooler climate we got used to in the 50s-early 80s (when we first really started getting into more modern weather data collection) was actually a result of pollution and when we really started cleaning up the particulate matter the temp started rising.

Most of my life I have been bombarded by alarmist climate rhetoric and doomsday predictions that never materialize. I think it’s ludicrous to think we don’t have any impact, but I’m also a little skeptical that while the warming trend of the past 13,000 years has been overwhelmingly positive for humanity that another degree or two is all of a sudden going to be cataclysmic.

The other thing to consider is that the climate will inevitably change even if we do absolutely nothing to impact it. It’s not like what we’ve had the last hundred years is what it’s always been or always will be. It’s just a snapshot in an every evolving cycle.

When we had the Little Ice Age a few hundred years ago it made life in the northern latitudes pretty damn difficult. But people adapted and survived. I suspect we’ll run out of oil or replace it well before Florida is underwater. In the meantime we’ve gotta survive the threat of WWIII, the terrible state of our domestic food system, and the horrors of DOGE.

Aah...the Little Ice Age.  A favorite watering hole for climate science denialists, who are fond of using this period of markedly colder temperatures as evidence of “natural fluctuations” in climate.  But we know that this isn’t true of current climate change — if anything, natural forces would be making the planet cooler again if we weren’t dumping so much carbon into the atmosphere. 

Despite the differences, the Little Ice Age can teach us how societies responded to the disruptive effects of climate change.  We can learn what humans did right and what they got wrong.  But we better be quick about it because the Little Ice Age was just a “sampler.”  Back then, the average global temperature cooled by a fraction of a degree.  We’ve already warmed it by 1.1C and are set to blow past 1.5C in the next few decades.

“Natural fluctuations”

Are you suggesting they were anything but? The same thing could happen at any time now, and it would be worse than the warming. Many places in the northern hemisphere saw over 2 degrees drop that had nothing to do with human activities.

You obviously missed the entire point. California wildfires in the last few years have completely undone decades of carbon reduction initiatives. How much did the Canadian wildfires undo? What happens if we have the same reduced solar activity,
volcanic activity blocking solar radiation, build-up of solar-reflecting ice, or changes in the Earth's orbit and tilt that they did in the Little Ice Age?

It’s cute that you think we have any real measure of control over this shit. It’s one step forward and two steps back right there in the same state that claims to be the leader in climate change mitigation.

I literally made the point of humans adjusting to climate change and you’re acting like that’s your own novel idea in your post.

What do you know about the times when earth was warmer than it currently is? It must have been a barren wasteland, right?

When Jake Tapper interviewed Lara Trump she mentioned Biden's decline. Tapper said she was mocking Biden for his "stutter" and ended the interview.

You are now able to order the book on Biden's decline and it's cover-up which comes to you .......
From Lara Trump.


 JK, it's ......
"From two of America’s most respected journalists, an unflinching and explosive reckoning with one of the most fateful decisions in American political history: Joe Biden’s run for reelection despite evidence of his serious decline—amid desperate efforts to hide the extent of that deterioration."
