The Trump administration has begun firing employees at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, one of the world’s premier centers for climate science. It has attacked other sources of funding for science, it has made us leave the World Health Organization, and we are now going to ignore the need for flu vaccines. These thoughtless actions will only put our country at a strategic disadvantage with the world and they will eventually cause people to die. People. American people. America First seems more like a plan to plunge America into the dark ages. We the people rely on Congress to stop this senselessness. Please do your job: represent us, stand up for our best interests, even if you have to go against the ill conceived ideas of this would be king. Stand up for science and rationality.
