Smirking Jeff Flake Spars with ANGRY crowd in his first Town Hall This Year and seemed to think it was all a big joke.

But will he be smirking and laughing at his constituents at the next election?

That is up to you....

Sen. Jeff Flake, R-Ariz., got more boos than cheers from the estimated 1,800 people who turned out to his town hall in Mesa, Ariz., on Thursday evening, the lawmaker's first such event of the year.

The audience appeared to be comprised of mostly Democratic activists - as evident by the majority of people who protested the senator's statements throughout the event.

Newsmaker Sunday: Newly-Minted Andy Biggs

Talks like a Democrat but struggles with his words on nearly every response.
Freedom Caucus what's the deal? Biggs says it's good to belong to that extreme conservative group, but has no idea of what's going on with healthcare. Getting hassled by 'liberals' at Town Hall meeting here? Or far right Repubs when 600 people showed up. Says he saw only one person from 'his group of supporters'.
Mixed feelings about strike on Syria... he's worried about taking unilateral action when Congress can only declare war?

Getting Warm + Warmer > How Hot Is It?

Earth can't stop, won't stop setting monthly warming records
So much for a global warming slowdown. New data released on Friday shows that March 2017 was the second-warmest on record, behind March of last year. The global average surface temperature was 1.12 degrees Celsius, or 2.016 degrees Fahrenheit, warmer than the 1951-1980 average.Source: Mashable 

The two top March temperature anomalies have occurred during the past two years.

March of last year was the hottest such month on record, with a temperature anomaly of 1.27 degrees Celsius, or 2.28 degrees Fahrenheit, above the 20th century average for the month. 
March of 2017 was only the eighth month in NASA's database to have a global temperature anomaly at or above 1-degree Celsius, or 1.8 degrees Fahrenheit. This is especially relevant since world leaders have committed to limit global warming to "well below" 2 degrees Celsius, or 3.6 degrees Fahrenheit, below preindustrial levels by the year 2100. 

Recent monthly temperatures have come perilously close to one climate guardrail that concerns low-lying developing nations, which favor a temperature target of 1.5 degrees Celsius, or 2.7 degrees Celsius, above preindustrial levels. If global temperatures exceed this level, leaders have warned, small island states such as the Maldives and Kiribati would face an existential threat from sea level rise. 

Interestingly, the global average temperature anomaly was greater in March than it was in February, and with hints of another El Niño event developing during the next six months, such a warming trend may continue.
According to the global map of temperature anomalies, Europe and all of Russia, particularly Siberia, were much warmer than the 20th century average. Much of the United States was also relatively warm, with the exception of Alaska, which was cooler than average. 

The entire year of 2016 was the hottest on record, with last year's temperatures exceeding all previous years since record-keeping began. It is possible, though not likely, that 2017 will beat 2016 to become the third-straight warmest year on record. 
NOAA and NASA scientists have said that human-caused global warming was responsible for a majority of the annual temperature gains, including the annual record set in 2016. 
However, scientists’ warnings are falling on deaf ears in the Trump administration, with officials like Scott Pruitt, who leads the Environmental Protection Agency, rejecting mainstream climate science altogether.
