If Roger didn't like our criticisms of his claims about hurricane-related damages, maybe he should talk to his fellow climate critic #JudithCurry. Here's what she had to say in an email to me:

#JudithCurry was a key member of the "unlawful" working group tasked by the Trump administration with discrediting the science underlying the EPA endangerment finding (the legal basis for regulating carbon emissions)

If you're a producer for a cable news show, you should have a tight two-minute montage with a sampling of the many times Donald Trump has encouraged political violence, just waiting for the inevitable Republican guest who tries to pretend Democrats are the real problem here.

January of 1933 was the year Adolph Hitler became Chancellor of Germany. Over the next six months, he did many of the same things Trump is doing, but essentially unopposed. In 2025, Americans resolve is stronger as is our Constitution. That makes all the difference! Republicans will fail!

Yeah, I wasn't clear, I now realize. What I meant was, those who were in on shifting to the right at the beginning, but who pulled back early, can be appreciated in a more positive light than those who stuck through Trump 1.0 and are still MAGA in Trump 2.0.

Listening to #SistersinLaw and it occurs to me that the conversation about Trump's enemies tends to speak of them as "left-leaning." That is correct, but "centrists" are just as much in the cross-hairs of Trump and his cronies. Maybe "People in America" is a better term.
