Yes, it is possible that Trump v Obama could occur in 2044: Barron Trump and Sasha Obama. My friend Andy Revkin has taken this premise and put together an enjoyable piece. Take a look and listen here . 

An Important Rerun...

 ... if you didn't see it at the time, please take a look at my  interview with Andy Revkin  pertaining to the creation of, and reasons for, a National Disaster Review Board.  Momentum for a NDRB seems to be building and I'll be talking about later this week. 

Appearance With Andrew Revkin Is Now Online

Journalist Andrew Revkin conducted an outstanding panel on the issues surrounding the National Weather Service, NOAA and the Trump Administration today.  The discussion is now posted online. Andy's panel was excellent I believe you will find the viewpoints diverse and 100% constructive. You can view the webcast here . I will be appearing at Noon Eastern (11am Central) Monday with Andy Revkin, Alan Gerard, and Andrew Freedman on the crisis in the National Weather Service and NOAA.  You can listen, live, here . If you can't listen live, you can use the same link the listen to the recording. It is a great panel with a variety of perspectives. 

My Interview With Andy Revkin

If you missed yesterday evening's webcast, here is a link to the interview I did with Andy Revkin pertaining to the catastrophe in the southern Appalachians caused by Hurricane Helene and why this event -- yet again -- demonstrates why the United States desperately needs a National Disaster Review Board (NDRB) that would be modeled after the hugely successful National Transportation Safety Board.  There is bipartisan legislation in both houses of Congress to create a NDRB. While some modifications to the bills are needed, they are a very good start.  This is election season: now is the time to put this issue in front of our candidates and see what they have to say. Otherwise, we are doomed to keep repeating the loss of life and the incredible loss of property and damage to our nation's economy.
