I mean NOAA, a primarily science-oriented agency, is literally under the purview of resident Commerce weasel-- excuse me, "secretary" Ross because of Nixon not liking someone's opinion of the Vietnam War becoming public. Not that being under the Dept. of the Interior or its own Dept. in this administration would make a difference, but in case anyone didn't know and was wondering why Wilbur Fucking Ross has any say in NOAA... It's thanks to the ego of the previous most notorious Crook-In-Chief being called out on his mistakes. The man who did so was Wally Hickel, a man Nixon made the mistake of hiring as Interior Secretary, apparently not realizing he actually had a beating human heart and a conscience when he appointed him.
Phyllisha Hart Of course it should be against the law. Freaking people out, causing unnecessary suffering and perhaps not informing people who are in actual danger...

@@yvonnewatkins492 no he was saying that there weren't any TRUMP scandals in the Obama administrations, at least 98% of the time. The whole Birtherism thing was a Trump scandal
I vaguely remember a time....a very distant memory...of a president who’s worst scandal was the suit he wore and the type of mustard he picked at a deli. Wow, what a time we lived in
Why? Cause nothing ever has consequences with him. Well except standing up to defend the constitution and doing your bloody job, that has the consequence of getting the boot by the polemist in chief. Nothing ever has consequences FOR Trump. Even the disgraceful Senate handling of the Impeachment did INCREASE his poll numbers, FFS.
he stresses caution during a cat 5 hurriflurrie and just an inch of precaution. well im sure if he tried cutting flights from areas contaminated with virulent airborne disease you would imediatly support the TRumps decision, and even if you didnt you wouldnt blame him for not wanting to create a sense of urgency that could lead to panic if he chose to respect DNC request to not stop a chinese new years festival during to most critical time to respond to a virulent airborne disease right?
@@fishyfish9716 That's a pretty generous assessment of him adding an extra danger zone area on a map that has already been assessed by scientists to be safe from the storm. If you're talking about Trump not informing the American public that coronavirus was a problem, I would definitely say he and the Republicans should have done everything possible to stop more cases from happening. The people would panic no matter what he did and allowing it to run rampant through the country killed thousands of people. He would have a second term now if he had tried to stop coronavirus, instead he is sulking over the very obvious loss he has been dealt.

We could get every sources we needed that proves he's a terrible father who brainwashed his kids, shamed his wife, taking money outside if the country, a biggot, a cheater in every way, a liar, and most of all the worst person in American history since... well any terrible people.
Wait until your commies will come on power and than you will live a real nightmare. The only problem is that voting with your commies you will give us the decent people a nightmare
nar ́to Uzumaki that will not matter at all for Trump. The Senate would have to go along with it and evidently they don't care how many crimes he commits or how unethical and abusive he is because they are afraid of losing their own re-elections. Too much self-dealing. We need term limits. We would have much more honest discourse like that we have seen from the people retiring the last few years.
It's illegal to yell "Fire!" in a crowded theater. Similarly, it should be illegal to yell "Water!" in a place that is not going to be hit by a hurricane. Truly, Trump's "Water"-gate.
It usually ends in revolt. The stupidity on display now is not that different than King Louis XVI and Mary Antoinette, except now we have a median for the news to travel at a more rapid rate.
@Alex H I am not going to deny that falsehoods have come from Trump or any other president’s mouth. What I question is the exhaustively tremendous effort of the left wing media to call him out on any and every embellishment and the constant attempt to berate him at every chance they get, completely ignoring his success in the economy, building the military and stopping the flow of illegal immigration. Whether you agree with this perspective viewpoint or not, when it comes to the media and Hollywood engaging in a constant barrage of insults and defamation play right into the fake news narrative whether it’s true or not. You decide for yourself.

Isn't trying to threaten NOAA to falsify documents to cover up his lying a much more serious crime. I mean it's telling someone to commit a document falsification crime, which might have a massive impact on disaster preparation, panics and possibly deaths?
"A leader is best when people barely know he exists, Not so good when people obey and acclaim him. Worse when they despise him. Fail to honor people, They fail to honor you." Lao Tzu, Tao Te Ching.

Us farmers depend on weather forcasts heavily to plant and harvest crops and when to move livestock from fields to shelter. This is no laughing matter to us. Shameful potus!
Understandable, Amy, but you should never get your weather forecast from the Oval Office anyway... the ones actually spread to radio stations etc did not include the Alabama warnings, did they? Nobody tried to make the sharpie-faked map official either, did they?

I’m beyond thinking this is funny. Trump is a dangerous person who needs to be dealt with not laughed at and it seems as though the US are not prepared to actually do anything about a madman running the country.
Agreed. He should have been impeached long ago, or drug out of the whitehouse forcibly by an angry mob. The only issue I see is that everyone in line to take his position is worse than he is.
Diane Farley then your political system is fatally flawed. You can do something but your leadership is gutless to try. I refer to Nancy sitting back and sending out strongly worded statements rather than impeachment and Republicans showing no back bone when they could easy have invoked the 25th and removed him.
@@scooprussell930 and these people could get people killed giving them the wrong info. Today the info include a state where the weather will be fine, next time it will be where the weather is disasterous and Trump orders the agency to not give the order that would allow people to prepare for the upcoming disaster. People will die and those in charge will be brought up on charges.
Remember Malcolm in the middle? When this was written people still thought president of the United States was something noble to be, and something you'd need intelligence for
He uses the "fake news" words more and more these days when he's been caught in the wrong. It's very childlike. It would be laughable if it wasn't so disturbing. What is even more disturbing are the commenters I see who absolutely INSIST that they are going to vote this administration back into office in 2020. And I must ask these people: Are you wanting this administration back in because you want them to finish the destruction of the administrative government (because, yes, Trump is doing EXACTLY what Steve Bannon said was the goal of this administration) or are you feeling that keeping these people in power satisfies your need for revenge against your enemies on the left (I really wonder how "the left" has truly hurt these people)? I would really like a truthful answer.
The whole Alabama hurricane thing was just a test of the degree of mindless belief in Trump still remaining in the state where he historically had the greatest support.
This is quite possibly THE dumbest thing that I have ever been witness to in my two decades on this planet. Like, Jesus H. Christ, man- all you had to do was tweet out 'My Bad' and this all would have been over in like, six hours. Now it's two full weeks later and there are investigations into this. Actually, the smartest thing you could have done was say nothing and just click the retweet on the NWS tweet. It would have been over! That's it! Two clicks! That's all! Now there's a political, media, and meteorological shitstorm!
that's what happens when you "spin" news to make yourself look good...and the idiots double down which shows their disdain for the true reality ...double down on a lie is still a lie but with extra mustard
This kind of behaviour is something that unites dictators all over the world. They can't be wrong in any kind, because that would destroy their need for praise. Stalin used to kill people who argued against him, and in doing so he also caused about 20 million deaths due to starvation. Just like Ttump, the communists also had alternative facts.
Can you imagine someone being so insecure, that when a professional disagrees with you, instead of backing down, you just try to bribe people agreeing with you, and do a sh*tty job at providing proof? I mean, there is mansplaining, and then there is Trump.
Gee thanks. He's needed to go for some time and it seems fitting for this to be the way. All the faults of Trump are in play. All except sex scandals. Really don't like how he treats people over seas. Seems to only like the dictator type of people 🤔

Darth Wheezius We (UK) are putting up a fight. Bojo could be got for lying to the queen, which is tantamount to abuse of the extremely elderly, and also, with luck, treason. In a few weeks he has managed to reduce a very slender majority of one to a minority of 20 or so - it keeps changing - and he’s also in trouble for lying during his Brexshit campaign. His premiership may well end up in the Guinness Book of Records as both the shortest and most illegal. He’s always wanted to be PM, well, now he’s got it he hasn’t the vaguest idea of what to do with it. A bit like trump and the presidency!
@@margueritejohnson6407 I feel for you! When the UK voted for Brexit, most of Europe hoped you'd change your mind. But after three years of crazy, with Bojo's premiership as it's crowning moment, we just hope you don't. Sorry! We'll happily have you back once you sorted your internal mess out.
A Google User Hello, google user. Are you in Europe? If so, please feel free to make fun of (not my) Bojo and the rest of the gang. Except it’s now getting a bit frightening. Shortages of food we can deal with - my parents and grandparents survived the rationing in WW2. In fact, my father didn’t really as he was a pilot in the RCAF and was shot down and killed in Holland soon after D Day. But I digress. If the Labour Party, with Corbyn, use some pretty nifty fast footwork, we might, just might, get a second referendum and I know a lot of people may change their vote. The government document, Yellowhammer, has some fairly frightening scenarios about the results of a ‘no deal’ Brexshit. Shortages of necessary medication, like for diabetes, are already worrying people, but the very chilling picture of the government stockpiling body bags will cause real panic. I would very much like to stay in the EU; we have gained, in legislation for health and working conditions, much more than we have lost. The sight of morons brainwashed by billionaire right wing newspaper owners (daily mail, sun 🤮🤮) shouting that they want their country back is so stupid it’s almost funny. They seem to be quite oblivious of the prospect of a take over by trump, who has his eyes firmly set on the NHS, as well as other areas for trade. If you are European, could you please forgive us for all this buggering about and take us back?
Future generations will look at the dictators of their times and ask.. "Isn't this the way Trump behaved...?" It's about time that he's potty-trained, instead of spreading his brand of crap, to his supporters, , every chance he gets... 🌊🌊 #votebluenomatterwho
Please let this sink in... the guy made an elaborate lie over the weather and use of marker. This isn't about the left, media or illegal. This is plain science and a person not willing to concede to an error. If he went this far about a hurricane, what else did he cover? Why not just say "my bad"? He'll shift this into someone else's fault somehow
y wouldn't he just say they were mistaken? the weather is always unpredictable. if he lies about minuscule things such as this, imagine what he's really hiding?
This is the most frightening thing. If he said 'oh, my mistake. Earlier predictions included Alabama. I stand corrected' EVERYONE would move on. It's not a big deal. Humans make honest mistakes. But Trump is a broken human being and rather than admit a mistake, he chose to lie, to doctor an official weather map, cause confusion for millions, force scientists to lie and has dug himself so deep he must continue the lie. Being such a blatant, desperate liar would disqualify you a job in alsmost any other walk of life. Trump gets to continue because his supporters allow it. If they finally grew some balls and took him to account things might change but they are liars and cowards and unwilling to admit a mistake. No wonder they support him.
Yeah, you're right, Marcus, but it isn't the dumb stuff that concerns me, it's the heinous stuff he'll do before we can manage to get him out. No telling just how low he'll sink us.

I just watched like 6 Closer looks in a row and I'm just wondering, why the hell hasn't Trump stepped down yet? My god this is insane.
Why? Cause nothing ever has consequences with him. Well except standing up to defend the constitution and doing your bloody job, that has the consequence of getting the boot by the polemist in chief. Nothing ever has consequences FOR Trump. Even the disgraceful Senate handling of the Impeachment did INCREASE his poll numbers, FFS.
Tom Ace at least I'm not the only one
When you go to a puppet show, do you ever see the puppeteer?
he stresses caution during a cat 5 hurriflurrie and just an inch of precaution. well im sure if he tried cutting flights from areas contaminated with virulent airborne disease you would imediatly support the TRumps decision, and even if you didnt you wouldnt blame him for not wanting to create a sense of urgency that could lead to panic if he chose to respect DNC request to not stop a chinese new years festival during to most critical time to respond to a virulent airborne disease right?
@@fishyfish9716 That's a pretty generous assessment of him adding an extra danger zone area on a map that has already been assessed by scientists to be safe from the storm. If you're talking about Trump not informing the American public that coronavirus was a problem, I would definitely say he and the Republicans should have done everything possible to stop more cases from happening. The people would panic no matter what he did and allowing it to run rampant through the country killed thousands of people. He would have a second term now if he had tried to stop coronavirus, instead he is sulking over the very obvious loss he has been dealt.

What is even more disturbing are the commenters I see who absolutely INSIST that they are going to vote this administration back into office in 2020. And I must ask these people: Are you wanting this administration back in because you want them to finish the destruction of the administrative government (because, yes, Trump is doing EXACTLY what Steve Bannon said was the goal of this administration) or are you feeling that keeping these people in power satisfies your need for revenge against your enemies on the left (I really wonder how "the left" has truly hurt these people)? I would really like a truthful answer.
The whole Alabama hurricane thing was just a test of the degree of mindless belief in Trump still remaining in the state where he historically had the greatest support.

Actually, the smartest thing you could have done was say nothing and just click the retweet on the NWS tweet. It would have been over! That's it! Two clicks! That's all! Now there's a political, media, and meteorological shitstorm!

This kind of behaviour is something that unites dictators all over the world. They can't be wrong in any kind, because that would destroy their need for praise. Stalin used to kill people who argued against him, and in doing so he also caused about 20 million deaths due to starvation. Just like Ttump, the communists also had alternative facts.

If the Labour Party, with Corbyn, use some pretty nifty fast footwork, we might, just might, get a second referendum and I know a lot of people may change their vote. The government document, Yellowhammer, has some fairly frightening scenarios about the results of a ‘no deal’ Brexshit. Shortages of necessary medication, like for diabetes, are already worrying people, but the very chilling picture of the government stockpiling body bags will cause real panic.

you think that's bad... there are idiots who have said that black sharpie bit was originally part of the map but the "fake news" doctored this... wish i was joking but nope there's video of 5 idiots trying to defend the map and how it wasn't altered 🤦♀️🤦♂️

It's amazing how much damage a single presidency can do to our country...
Aint that the truth!!
Yeah, Reagan has a lot to answer for.

At least he actually *did* make better relations with China.
@@Richard_Nickerson Yeah, he and Nancy liked china. They ordered a whole new set of china (over 4k pieces) for the WH :)
It's scary!
I like how he covers it up by saying fake news, when in fact he is the entire source of the confusion.
Alexander Supertramp that’s what liars do.
Now imagine if a real emergency (terrorist attack, financial meltdown, etc) and imagine how this country would completely unravel looking to these criminals to actually do something...
It's Time For A Closer Look!!!!!!! This is amazing!!!!! Love this segment and the Late Night Writing for it!!!! You guys are too much and we love it!!!!
I see you here every night in the comments! Have a good night! See ya next time lol
Ah, it's you again. 👍
@@jdp6295 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Eunice, you took the words right out of my mouth! Cheers!
Can you believe it’s only been 3 years of this insanity? It seriously feels like this has been going on since the beginning of time.
Trump made the beginning of time. Just like when he made the weather with his sharpie, and Covfefe.
14 long months left to vote. Please, do the right thing...
2:00 This is how you become a failed state. When the king and the preacher get to censor the science.
If they can catch Capone for Tax Evasion they can get Trump for his sharpie
I wish 👏
Whatever it takes
agree! I was thinking the very same thing.
The oval office will become known as the Sharpie circle.
OMG funny on various rounds ...
"A billionaire that steals Sweet 'n Low."
It constantly baffles me that the more money people have the less they're willing to spend
Flannel Shirt Enthusiast they would try to say that pinching pennies like that is how they made their millions 🤪
Saving on anything possible is what keeps them rich.
Frugality is key to Maximising your profits, he exploits a loophole in the system that allows him to get free imitation sugar packets, seems to me your problem is with a system that gives away free imitation sugar, not with a billionaire that receives free sugar.

I'm just sitting here thinking that my future grandchildren will learn about this in school. Like this is legit going to be part of history!
Not for long, it will be mostly forgotten like the other scandals in Americas long and illustrious past. Things only history nerds jump on to like the Whiskey rebellion or the Teapot dome scandal or the XYZ affair ... etc etc etc.
The thing about hurricanes is that they eventually loose steam and die. Trump continues to blow hot air nonstop!

This makes me think of how they got Al Capone for tax evasion lol. Please let them impeach him for this, that would be poetic justice.
With all Seth's experience throughout the years hes never forgotten how appreciated a good fart joke is. What a legend.
Fart jokes for the left, lol.

sira castori, but are you a billionaire? Because that makes it ridiculous, greedy, and pathetic.
In a world where flat-earther numbers are growing, is it really a surprise people support this president? this is what happens when a country falls behind in it's general education.
Exactly.
@Luiza Mendoza I am not going to deny that falsehoods have come from Trump or any other president’s mouth. What I question is the exhaustively tremendous effort of the left wing media to call him out on any and every embellishment and the constant attempt to berate him at every chance they get, completely ignoring his success in the economy, building the military and stopping the flow of illegal immigration. Whether you agree with this perspective viewpoint or not, when it comes to the media and Hollywood engaging in a constant barrage of insults and defamation they play right into the fake news narrative whether it’s true or not. You decide for yourself.
@Luiza - An ignorant population is very easily manipulated and misled. GREED, and the greedy, love an ignorant population. That's why it was a crime to teach a slave to read or write. That is why schools were segregated. That's why the reich-wing has pushed for so long to de-fund public education.
@@philipjones6584 you have the same remark on every thred robot
@RB you do realize that you are describing the historical Democrat party of the south? You might want to spend a little time studying a bit of history before you retort.
Stealing sweetenlow is the ultimate old man move.
my Polish granny used to steal wedding cake slices in her bra, freeze them and offer them to us years later... she used to also steal the sugar and salt shakers from trays outside of hotel rooms... this is very familiar to me...
What the hell even is that?
Ok. This has gone on long enough. Can someone please reset the simulation?
I'd be fine if they just unplugged it.
If I were in a position where my job was being threatened if I didn't do something illegal, I'd quit right then and there, and sue their asses off.
This whole thing would be hilarious,if it weren’t sooo scary ( for the world) at the same time!

@@philipjones6584 Building the military is not a sucess. The military budget was already out of control. Republicans like to complain about taxes so they should be furious about the waste in military spending, at least the voters, the politicians are just being bought with the same money they pay the contractors with via lobbying money.
And this isn't a small issue. It doesn't seem to be a big deal its just a circle drawn with a sharpie right? But when you think about it Trump altered a document just to make him look right... That could be illegal at worst and at best indicates his dishonesty and makes you ask, when else did Trump do this with documents? And it wasn't even for a good reason, it was simply so Trump didn't have to admit one little mistake, it's not like he made money off this it's so petty.
@@philipjones6584 Melania came in on an Einstein visa lol.
@@fieldy409 petty is the right word.
Marlene Sollgruber yes that’s why we need to learn to control fear and loosen up laughter is the best medicine then think of the implications and how to minimize
Sharpiegate is a distraction. From what is the scary thing.
The current lack of any coherent foreign policy? Naw. Making profit off of the presidency. Naw. Maybe the Russian influence on the election? Cant be that. I'm at a loss for what could ever be the problem with our commander in chief.
Wouldn't it be ironic if, after everything else, Trump was finally impeached for this? 😂
@@AlphaMR77 Russians never influenced in our election.They are anti american bastards who would love every chance to vote Killary in. The founding fathers of our great nation fought against what you vote for!

@@riverendnet The founding fathers were anti-strong government control, and hated taxation. They were libertarian in every sense of the word, which is against left wing idiots that control our country!
