Interestingly, the early days of the Reagan presidency in the '80s marked a period for the EPA that was very similar to what the agency faces today. Reagan cut the EPA's budget by 21% and appointed anti-environmental protection attorney Anne Gorsuch (the mother of newly-appointed Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch) to run the agency. Within two years, Gorsuch and several other EPA administrators quit after congressional investigations revealed conflicts of interest, lying under oath, and obstruction of justice.

Unbelievable. These are the people that are in government today.

What saved the EPA and its mission in the 1980s could help save it today, said Lindsey. Groups like EDGI are a big help, but the real life-savers are people within the agency who become whistleblowers. They can alert the public to ways that our protections are being eroded, as well as what kind of data is being sequestered offline.

Another challenge to the EPA that Lindsey discussed is the so-called HONEST Act, a piece of legislation that limits the kinds of scientific data that the EPA can use to enforce protections. The act would disallow any scientific papers whose data cannot be "reproduced," which basically includes all studies of toxic cleanup and contamination. We can't reproduce those events, and, therefore, any data about them would be disallowed by the HONEST Act. Essentially, the EPA would no longer be able to use any scientific studies that explore environmental disasters.

And I hope dude starts getting treated like a troll and people tune out this ******** and focus on what the administration is trying to pass. Instead of heavily covering each stupid tweet for an entire today.
 
Dude should be thanking CNN if anything for covering his nonsense tweets more than healthcare and other issues of substance and importance :lol:

BENJAMIN is looking dare I say HANDSOME.


DAPPER DON IS just fighting FIRE with Fire. The lies, conjecture and innuendo LIBBIES HAVE USED against Don is unacceptable. LIBBIES are by their nature WEAK and don't know what to do when you fight back.
 
I bet CNN will continue to fellate The Bigot[emoji]8482[/emoji] even after he keeps attacking them.

This.

The court jester is behind the Oval office desk. Meanwhile, his "minions" are shaping the future of this nation in the dark.

Those are the people the cameras and microphones should be focused on.

Doesn't help that they consistently give a ton of airtime to his cronies such as the likes of Lewandowski,Krazy Katrina Pierson and Jeffrey Lord. Dudes never say anything that you won't hear from Huckabee Sanders or Spicey
 
Americans who voted for this troll deserve to see this dude troll the country. I hope Trump trolls their lives so much that they gotta go to the unemployment line.
 
Trumps homeland security advisor embarrassing himself on ABC right now defending that tweet. I dont know why these people stand by this man knowing he will throw them under the bus in a heartbeat like we have seen him do before.

It may be deserved, but let's just remember that none of this is normal. The president should not be attacking the press like this.

It's one thing to make a comment about how you feel the press is being unfair or not presenting the whole picture. It's another thing to spend a significant amount of time and energy over the entire 6 months of your presidency to discredit the press.

To go a little deeper -- this isn't someone who is respectful of facts and is going along his business and suddenly getting attacked by the media. Rather, this is a guy who has been known for and continues to be known for making up lies AND using the media to spread those lies. He has had no problem attacking black men in the media, whether it's the Central Park Five or Barack Obama. So, along with this attack on the press being completely out-of-bounds behavior for a sitting president, it is completely disingenuous on his part.

I realize it's entertaining but it's also deeply troubling. Putting everything I just said aside, this is a 71-year-old man. ******* HELL.
