Jerry Brown: If Trump turns off weather satellites, "California will launch its own damn satellite"



California Gov. Jerry Brown says California is “ready to fight” President-elect Donald Trump on climate change.

"We've got the scientists, we've got the lawyers and we're ready to fight," Brown said during a heated speech Wednesday night to the American Geophysical Union in San Francisco, the Los Angeles Times reported.

Brown seized on comments from a top Trump adviser, who said the incoming administration plans to eliminate NASA's earth science programs. That end the use of satellites to gather climate information.

"If Trump turns off the satellites, California will launch its own damn satellite," Brown said.

1. California has very little in common with the rest of the United States. Maybe it's time we become

independent.

[forgotmylogin]

5. I think Canada offered to take you in!

(most likely unofficially, but cool nonetheless!)

[BlueCaliDem]

14. Lol! They *have*! WA * OR, too. Man, that would be nice...eom

[etherealtruth]

11. I beg to differ, California has a lot in common with most large northern cities

The people in NYC, Philadelphia, Chicago, Detroit, Baltimore .... have very similar values and vote in very similar ways.

[BlueCaliDem]

15. Well, to be fair, there are even pockets of Progressives in SC, Indiana, Kentucky, etc. But they

no say in the elections--except local elections. Maybe.

[etherealtruth]

17. Yep ... I am here in Michigan

The racist vote "won" (for tRump) ... maybe. We have two Democratic Senators and democrats usually do pretty well in state-wide elections. My congress critter is Sander Levin and all of my local reps are Democrats .... but .... as soon as leave Metro Detroit (or Flint, or Saginaw or the City of Grand Rapids proper) you truly enter right-wing nut job territory.

I think the Democrats here were complacent in the General election ... we thought Clinton would surely win against the buffoon. I think people stayed home because they thought it was a "done deal" for Clinton ... the crazies (and racist/ bigots) voted in force

16. The whole west coast says fuck you Trump

[yuiyoshida]

2. "eureka!"

[Dream Girl]

3. The Putin/Trump coalition will be coming for us next. Doubtless the are

Already cooking up strategies to hack, disrupt and sow discord among Cal/dems and left learners. Count on it.

[Pachamama]

4. Very proud to be a Californian

Right now as I see the insanity in the USA and what is happening, my only safety is in knowing I am in California.

[0nirevets]

6. Right, the State that gave us Ronald Reagan, Arnold Schwartzenegger, Richard Nixon

Please take off the rose colored glasses. California is just as susceptible to Right Wing lunacy as every other State.

7. Reagan or Nixon could never win a statewide race in 2016 California.

That's like saying Al D'Amato is emblematic of New York politics.

And Arnold's politics are nothing like Trump's.

"California is just as susceptible to Right Wing lunacy as every other State."

Ummm, no. We are a minority majority state. We have a Democratic supermajority in our state legislature, a Democratic governor, a Democratic House delegation, and two Democratic senators. Hillary beat Trump by over thirty points here.

9. California would elect Bruce Willis if he ran

Remember that Arnold ran and won twice and not so long ago.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

10. Arnold looks pretty good compared to Rick Snyder. He didn't ENDORSE Trump.

Arnold Schwarzenegger Says He Will Not Vote For Donald Trump
“It is not only acceptable to choose your country over your party — it is your duty.”

He certainly didn't threaten to build a wall.

[NobodyHere]

12. What does Rick Snyder have to do with California?

[DemocratSinceBirth]

13. What does Bruce Willis have to do with California?

You might as well argue Californians would vote for Ice Cube. After all, he's a movie and music star.


California is the most forward leaning state in the nation and all the obscurantism in the world can not obscure that fact.

8. Not any more n/t
