Glacier National Park Is Changing Signs Warning That Glaciers Would Be Gone By 2020. Here’s What They Say | The Daily Caller:
Officials who manage Glacier National Park are swapping out signs warning visitors that climate change would cause the park’s glaciers to disappear by 2020.
The U.S. Geological Survey told the park in 2017 that the complete melting off of the glaciers was no longer expected, park spokeswoman Gina Kurzmen told CNN. Forecast models over the years show the glaciers were no longer at risk of disappearing by that date, she noted.

MSNBC's Chris Matthews compares Soleimani to Princess Diana, Elvis. Iranians say he's dead wrong and pushing 'propaganda.' - TheBlaze:

Video Exposes Brazen Junk Science By Federal Govt. | Climate Dispatch
"So is the federal government a disinterested player in the debate on climate science?
Not based on an impressive video that outlines some of the shenanigans of government agencies that supposedly watch the matter.
...The National Climate Assessment released in November 2018 is typically dire: “The impacts of climate change, including powerful storms, droughts, and wildfires, are worsening in the United States.”
Most Americans would be shocked to know that USGCRP’s climate assessments are little more than brazen environmental propaganda, and what follows is convincing proof of that contention.

Unlike Yemen War Powers Vote, House’s Iran War Powers Vote Not Binding
Unlike Yemen War Powers Vote, House’s Iran War Powers Vote Not Binding:
The House’s vote on a War Powers Resolution on Thursday to restrict the president’s ability to take military actions with regard to Iran does nothing of the sort.
Instead, it is a purely political vote that has no actual legal or legislative teeth behind it, and will never make it to the president’s desk even if the U.S. Senate also passes it because of the way House Democrat leadership under Speaker Nancy Pelosi structured the resolution.

Albany’s Self-Inflicted Medicaid Crisis
Albany’s Self-Inflicted Medicaid Crisis:
"In 2020, the biggest headache facing Albany will be Medicaid, the state-run health plan that covers more than 6 million lower-income and disabled New Yorkers.
As revealed last month, Medicaid is running 16 percent over budget—opening a $4 billion deficit in the state’s current financial plan and contributing disproportionately to a $6.1 billion gap for the fiscal year that begins April 1.
...This latest crisis is entirely self-inflicted by Governor Andrew Cuomo and the state legislature.
This pattern culminated with his administration’s unannounced decision to delay $1.7 billion in payments from late March to early April 2019—shifting expenses to the next fiscal year and throwing the state’s budget out of balance before it even passed.
These moves destabilized the state’s second-largest program (after school aid) and subverted important checks and balances in state government..."
