Opposition to Trump's authoritarianism is very much standing up. But we are SOOOOOO FARRRRR from being able to focus on corruption in the way that needs to happen.

A few weeks ago, chemical lobbyists asked the Trump administration to shut down an EPA website showing the locations of thousands of dangerous chemical facilities.

The EPA just took it down.

I really hope all federal websites and software was backed before the ding-a-lings got close to it. This is SOP elsewhere. However, the fact that all these facilities have thrown out the red carpet to Elmo's DOGE suggests this is a pipe dream.

Wonder how much it “cost” the chemical lobby to have their “wish” granted by the Orange Genie who is “disappearing” all the health and safety measures that have protected us as much as possible over the years.

It seems that sucking the oxygen out of a room wasn’t enough.

I live near multiple chemical sites. There have been numerous "accidents" resulting in spills and/or toxic fumes in the atmosphere. Sometimes they burn for days. The firefighters need to know where these sites are located to use the right materials to control the fires.
