It's part of the Administration's war on ... Florida?

This is such a bad article. They shut down this specific program in 2015, and switched to JPSS instead.

There is no war on anyone, and this has nothing to do with Trump, DOGS, or Climate change. Rather there were too many satellite failures, leaving just a single operating one in orbit.

This is true, however it does provide unending entertainment as seen by the top voted comments wondering how this is a secret war on the courts and Europe - lol
