Hey remember when Dems said Republicans are trying to kill everyone by overturning healthcare, or climate policy or net neutrality and a Bernie Sanders campaign worker shot up an entire baseball field full of GOP members of Congress and it was out of the news in 4 days?

Funny...I keep bringing up those same points and have for years.

Climate model reconstructions are not the same as observed data or evidence,” libertarian Cato Institute’s Dr. and Atmospheric Scientist Ryan Maue told The Daily Caller News Foundation.

“We should be very wary of grandiose claims of ‘A Day After Tomorrow’ based upon very limited direct measurements,” Maue said.

The Gulf Stream, or Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC), brings warm water from the Gulf of Mexico to the North Atlantic, and in turn, cold northern water is brought southward.

Polar ice melt and enhanced rainfall put an increasing amount of cold, fresh water into the North Atlantic, reducing salinity, some scientists say. Less saline has a harder time sinking, throwing off the AMOC.

Climate models generally show a weaker AMOC as a result of warming, but observational evidence has been scant. Anomalous cooling south of Greenland is evidence of a weakened AMOC, some scientists say.

The weak AMOC is explicitly tied to “increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations” and “temperature trends observed since the late nineteenth century,” according to the study, Rahmstorf co-authored.

However, the “Labrador Sea deep convection and the AMOC have been anomalously weak over the past 150 years or so … compared with the preceding 1,500 years,” a second study published in the same journal found.

In other words, the AMOC began weakening before human activities could play a role.

“The specific trend pattern we found in measurements looks exactly like what is predicted by computer simulations as a result of a slowdown in the Gulf Stream System, and I see no other plausible explanation for it,” Rahmstorf, whose study relied on proxy-data from ocean sediment and calcareous shells, said.

But again, there’s limited observational evidence. Several scientists besides Maue were skeptical of Rahmstorf’s study.

Rahmstorf’s “assertions of weakening are conceivable but unsupported by any data,” Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s Carl Wunsch told The Associated Press.

The National Center for Atmospheric Research’s Kevin Trenberth “said his recent work faults regular cycles in the atmosphere more than the ocean” and the “study doesn’t explain year to year variability, while atmospheric cycles do,” the AP reported.

“Essentially, what view you take of the results depends on how good you believe the models used are and likewise how well the chosen proxies represent the AMOC over the time scales of interest,” National Oceanography Center oceanographer Meric Srokosz told The Washington Post.

If you pushed the Russiagate conspiracy theory for 2 years you can just shut up right now about Assange working against the interests of the United States. You supported an attempted coup.

Another myth exposed

It's scary...the true coup was exposed, but, it just doesn't matter. The left DOES NOT CARE, and they're just of the mindset of, "we're unafraid, and will not change".

I hope he does it.

Me too. Then I hope the crime rate sky rockets.

Thank god there are a majority of rational thinkers to save us all from the foolish perversions of the idiots on the right:

So glad our fucking moron in chief is out to help all americans.
Sadder still is the clueless among us that support this fool’s irrational rants

Trump still eager to retaliate against sanctuary cities by 'placing' all detained migrants there

Lets see what American Patriot AOC is up to today. Ahhh yes.... inciting the irrational, deranged right:

AOC TV: Watch Fox News obsess over Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for 6 straight weeks

Keep fighting the good fight, American Patriot, AOC!

Me too. Then I hope the crime rate sky rockets.

Because zero tolerance and child separation worked so well last time.

Classic idiotic republican move.
