NNSA budget under President Warren


Ok, what will the NNSA budget look like under President Warren? Trump is toast now, there is no second term and he might be gone before then, so having 1 year of Pence will not mean much. Doubt Biden can survive the scandal either so it is Warren or Sanders. I would bet Warren. Does anyone know what her stance is? She seems anti-nuke from what comments she has made. In any case with end of Trump coming big changes are in store for America.

Trump might be out because of rapid demographic changes that have occurred in the last 4 years. He only won the rust belt states by 40,000 votes, I believe. I’ve never seen a change of administration radically change the mission and the funding. For instance, we were all looking forward to a resumption of nuclear testing and new weapons development when W Bush entered office. It never happened.

It is all over for Trump, his minions and the deplorable crowd. He resigns and goes to jail, is removed and goes to jail, loses in 2020 and goes to jail, or tries to let Pence pardon him, which could still backfire if Pence really wants to win in 2020. The point is Trump is done in less than year and a few months.

So who is it going to be?

Warren maybe, but Joe Biden is still tops in polling.

If it is Biden or even Hillary expect the same as what we had with Obama. Put in Warren and everything could change. There is also the added problem that the people of the United States will want their pound of flesh from the deplorables which could include the NNSA labs at the DOE in general. Expect something like a metaphorical French Revolution, where all things Trump or tainted by Trump is going to burn.

She is a high risk nut job. Some white people claim Native American heritage in casual conversation but almost none will claim heritage on a government form or on their resume.

Well Warren was a Republican most of her life until 1996... zero background in national security issues... deep into finance and economic law... if that's any indication.

Look it is going to be Warren. Biden is sunk along with Trump in the new scandal, Sanders just had a heart attack, so who is left.
Warren. Ok maybe Hillary will run again but it looked like it will be Pence versus Warren.

I see the TDS. So sad.
So please try hard to remember these silly comments after the 2020 election.
Don't forget the nonsense in above post and comments.

YOU are the same people whom RAILED about RUSSIA and now you are silent on that.
Did you forget your same silly comments on RUSSIA? I missed RUSSIA in the above comments?
I did not see one word about RUSSIA in the post or comments? WHY is that?

SAME outcome Trump will EASILY, E*A*S*I*L*Y spelled out for you he will EASILY win in 2020. 100% EASY.

Even after 29% Trump Hispanic vote in 2016, it is now upwards of 45-49% for 2020.

"Trump might be out because of rapid demographic changes that have occurred in the last 4 years. He only won the rust belt states by 40,000 votes"

Romney lost some of those States by 100,000 or more. What is not understood is that Trump got those Obama 100,000 votes plus 40,000 more. SO a 140,000 swing.
For whatever that is worth.

Some congressional dems in "Trump Country", might be afraid of voting in favor of impeachment for fear of being voted out of office.

We are moving to Trump Country as well with many Californians and Kalifornia now has a negative growth rate I believe?
What might be lost In all the rhetoric, Trump won the popular vote in 49 States minus Kalifornia.

I've sometimes hoped that the Lab would be moved out of kookoo land and relocated but would not be possible after this infrastructure investment.

I think CrookedH will be involved soon either as a Warren VP or as a hero entering the race on her own. (Sadly) Last time I saw her she did not look well and I will leave it at that.

So 18 Republican Senators are going to vote with the Democrats? Hmmm, I don't think so.

You must be quite young. Carter and the transition from AEC to DOE.

Warren is anti-nuke, expect a huge funding cut.

Anything less than an 8 point lead for Warren does not worry me... She is more liberal than Clinton and cannot keep her cool. Trump will reduce her to ashes.

Trump is like a shark in the water, circling waiting for Warren to step in.

Plutonium Shots on NIF.

Tri-Valley Cares needs to be on this if they aren't already. We need to make sure that NNSA and LLNL does not make good on promises to pursue such stupid ideas as doing Plutonium experiments on NIF. The stupidity arises from the fact that a huge population is placed at risk in the short and long term. Why do this kind of experiment in a heavily populated area? Only a moron would push that kind of imbecile area. Do it somewhere else in the god forsaken hills of Los Alamos. Why should the communities in the Bay Area be subjected to such increased risk just because the lab's NIF has failed twice and is trying the Hail Mary pass of doing an SNM experiment just to justify their existence? Those Laser EoS techniques and the people analyzing the raw data are all just BAD anyways. You know what comes next after they do the experiment. They'll figure out that they need larger samples. More risk for the local population. Stop this imbecilic pursuit. They wan...

Trump is to gut the labs.

The budget has a 20% decrease to DOE office of science, 20% cut to NIH. NASA also gets a cut. This will  have a huge negative effect on the lab. Crazy, juts crazy. He also wants to cut NEA and PBS, this may not seem like  a big deal but they get very little money and do great things.

LLNL un-diversity

Actual post from Dec. 15 from one of the streams. This is a real topic. As far as promoting women and minorities even if their qualifications are not as good as the white male scientists, I am all for it. We need diversity at the lab and if that is what it takes, so be it.  Quit your whining. Look around the lab, what do you see? White male geezers. How many African Americans do you see at the lab? Virtually none. LLNL is one of the MOST undiverse places you will see. Face it folks, LLNL is an institution of white male privilege and they don't want to give up their privileged positions. California, a state of majority Hispanics has the "crown jewel" LLNL nestled in the middle of it with very FEW Hispanics at all!
