Lol at Trump being baffled over ppl being loyal to their cause or towards their own group. No surprise since he doesn't understand loyalty in person but it's still funny he's whining about it out loud.

In other news, the US has dropped out of the top 20 on the CPI for the first time since 2011. Trump derangement syndrome????

"The low score comes at a time when the US is experiencing threats to its system of checks and balances as well as an erosion of ethical norms at the highest levels of power."

The Netherlands experienced it's driest summer since, I think it was 1921. We're right next to a goddamn sea and we had a summer so dry the grass next to rivers was turning yellow. I had never seen anything like it, I count on rain to happen and it scares me that it didn't.

I hate, hate, hate people like Trump equating weather to climate. They take a cold day and say see no global warming, ignoring actual trends.

These are the 20 warmest (on average) years in Belgium between 2018 and 1896



Since 1999, every year but 3 are in the top list. Remember when climate specialists said an increase of the average temperature by more than 2° would be bad? We are already past it here





Yeah Donnie climate change is a Chinese hoax. I hope you and every climate change denier chud die on the toilet soon



e: oh and it's even better when these brain dead morons claim maybe the sun is to blame. Not only the solar cycle is 11 years, we are currently in a solar minimum. So expect the temperatures to get even warmer later

Yeah we also have more extreme weather on a short time scale. Like more heavy rainstorms etc.

Plants budding occur 15 days earlier than 50 years ago. We have animals from the Mediterranean basin now (while local species are dying). I found this spider in my garden last year and it was supposed to be living in Southern France earlier. Hopefully it eats the tropical mosquitoes we also get




Oh and even funnier, this year has been exceptional for Belgian wine. Like everybody is surprised to hear this. Grape and wine production here has always been anecdotal and frankly bad, and out of nowhere now we have decent to good wine !

Treasury will again borrow $1 trillion to pay for tax cuts, spending

For the second straight year, the Treasury Department will have to borrow $1 trillion to pay for the government's growing budget deficit, a consequence of juiced government spending and smaller revenues as a result of the late 2017 tax cuts, Bloomberg reports.

Treasury borrowing surpassed $1 trillion during President Obama's first term as government spending soared amid the stimulus to combat the 2008 financial crisis, but it has steadily declined in the years since, settling down to $519 billion in 2017 before nearly doubling last year.

I had to actually explain to a co-worker how the extreme temps in the Midwest was actually due to warming in the Arctic, not "cooling." To his credit, he seemed to listen. But yeah people just seem to only focus on events in our backyard, now how a weird climate trend on this side of Earth fucks poo poo up on the other side or whatever. Such small-mindedness.
