but, but, … "I want clean air. I want clean water. I want the cleanest air, want the cleanest water. The environment is very important to me.” - trump, jan 2020
he said it right there. He wants “the cleanest" air, “the cleanest” water.

Waiting for all those "small government" and "states rights" Republicans and their supporters to call this out.

Anything he can do to kill more people.

Everything he has done has made us a weaker more vulnerable country. Militarily financially and physically we are all in danger.

Great piece. Fucking up the economy is one thing. More damage to the planet is unconscionable.

The "king" demands everyone, everywhere bow to his insanity. He is bankrupting the country like he did with each of his companies and he is demanding we approve.

You know Florida got hammered by 3 hurricanes last year alone, including Helene and Milton. Wait till another powerful one blows through and leaves Mar-a-lago in a state of rubble, flattened to the ground. Wonder then if he might consider climate change is real. Seeing is believing. I was in those.

I am waiting to be fined for having solar panels.

Here in Utah they’ve increased costs of buying an electric car and have cut net metering rates (rates that the power company pays to solar power being put back into the stream). So I also would not be surprised!

Trump is a fucking idiot. This is another insane, stupid act of national vandalism.

Climate change is a watered down partisan word. We need to call it climate destruction to maybe start getting people to pay attention.

Which ever way you look at it, It’s all about dismantling democracy. In the case of Roe vs Wade, lets the states decide. Now. it’s let control the states on climate change. Whatever suits his agenda to be King.

“States Rights” means, for the GOP, the right to be extremist right / fascist.

Trump Tries to Destroy the Planet As Quickly as Possible

sandrallester.bsky.social•12 days ago

And everyone told me not to worry, that the State level would pick up the slack. The same thing is happening here in Ontario between the Provincial and local governments under Doug Ford. Businesses that fund politicians are calling the shots!
