Gratitude, humility, responsibility: Those are the virtues our overlapping histories should instill. But the new right turns that upside-down. It replaces gratitude with a sense of entitlement, humility with arrogance, and a sense of duty with the will to power and the right to dominate.

Time lapse of nocturnal convection in Goodland, KS during the late evening on Wednesday August 19, 2026. View looking toward the SSW. In this case, a long-lived, eastward moving anticyclonic supercell (and descending precipitation core) passes just south of the NWS office. #kswx #cowx #newx

A mafia-like network is taking over our government and securing its own impunity. But just as with any mafia, there's a playbook to counter it: you investigate, dismantle, and hold it to account. I've seen other countries do it. We can do it too. I break it down with @glennkirschner.bsky.social :

The 12Z GRB sounding aptly indicated the risk of very large hail (high CAPE and very elongated hodograph) with this morning's intense hailstorms across northern WI (multiple reports of hail up to 3 inches in diameter).

United Airlines has basically melted down today. Computer crash delayed morning flights, United ops decided to prioritize moving airplanes instead of passengers. And now bad weather has flights diverting all over the place. Passengers have no idea what's going to happen to them.
