I know that every time a bring this up, other posters just laugh or say it is crazy. The point ins
Civil war in the US is a real possibility, numerous professors have brought this up. However now some reports have come out that Canada is thinking about options if the US descends into civil war. I know it seems crazy but if Trump wins I do thinking people are going to accept that. If Trump loses and it is close some people are not going to accept that. The question is what are the labs going to do? We could be in a real bind about who the legitimate authority is.

“If Trump wins…if Trump loses”

Let me guess, you are not a Trump supporter. Your opinions are welcome as should the opinions of all USA citizens.

This article concerns a think tank in Canada thinking that there might be a civil war in the United States.

Do they propose a wall between the US and Canada?
Will they mobilize the Canadian citizens who are probably not as well armed as US citizens?

Is this a scare tactic for the Trudeau government to suspend some more rights of their citizens?

If there is one thing we should not tolerate it is MAGA.

7:58 your hatred of Trump, and your gross misunderstanding of National Laboratories is apparent. Please refrain from posting unless you have something of genuine value to add. Repetitive diatribes contribute nothing to adult discussions.

The Resistance to a New Trump Administration Has Already Started
An emerging coalition that views Donald J. Trump’s agenda as a threat to democracy is laying the groundwork to push back if he wins in November, taking extraordinary pre-emptive actions.

Maybe the labs should also prepare to be part of the resistance?

7:36 your creepy personification of “the labs” needs to stop. They are not, nor have they ever been, a political panic button.

Plutonium Shots on NIF.

By scooby
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.

By scooby
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

By scooby
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!
