The people of OKC will never forget this day. June 24, 2025 has been the single greatest day in our city’s history. The opportunity to celebrate OKC’s rise to sports immortality promised to be a once-in-a-lifetime moment, and it more than exceeded those lofty expectations. 🧵

I retweet this pic every draft. One of my favorite draft memories - the Bulls blacking out all the windows to ensure total secrecy before selecting Denzel Valentine and Paul Zipser.

Almost unfathomable to me how much the Right is intentionally destroying the things that makes the US a wealthy, prestigious and powerful country

China’s research and development spending is on track to outpace the US by 2027. This shift is something we should all be paying attention too, but especially our leaders, as it will undoubtedly have far-reaching implications for technology and economic strength.

This proposal would also remove funding for aircraft recapitalization, so there's a pretty good chance NOAA recon flights would have to wind down if this proposal were to go through, putting lives at risk.

A devastating blow to the weather career field by NOAAs top leadership recommendation in the United States budget proposal for FY26 would no longer have the weather career field be the leader of weather. ELIMINATIONS: - National Severe Storms Laboratory from movie Twister.

Just a friendly reminder: The Oklahoma City Thunder won the Western Conference BY 16 GAMES ... they were the youngest team in 50 years to win the NBA championship ... and they are losing NOBODY.

We are witnessing with despair the iniquitous use of hunger as a weapon of war. Burning crops, stealing livestock, and blocking aid are tactics increasingly used by armed militias. As civilians languish in misery, political elites grow fat with impunity. It is time to sanction

So we just shuttered 14 offices full of the best meteorological minds who predict and analyze our weather patterns, for the cost of what the federal government spends in 8 minutes?

From the Freedom of the Press Foundation: "Paramount’s spineless decision to settle Trump’s patently unconstitutional lawsuit is an insult to the First Amendment and to the journalists and viewers of ‘60 Minutes.’ It's a dark day for Paramount and for press freedom."

These life changing, cutting edge institutions have saved lives. Forecasting advances and lead time warnings would not be where they are today without them. This is a big step backwards.

This landmark study in The Lancet should be etched on Elon Musk's gravestone: Dismantling USAID is projected to cause 14 million deaths between 2025 and 2030 — that’s more than 2.4 million lives lost every year. That’s as many lives lost as in World War I.

Kiss goodbye to American leadership in medical and scientific research. Kiss goodbye to vast majority of promising cancer cures and Alzheimer’s cures. Give your thanks to Trump and the GOP led Congress
