"During his presidency, he rolled back more than a hundred environmental rules and regulations. He also exited the Paris climate accords. When Trump took office, hundreds of scientists working for the federal government were forced out or silenced. The climate scientists who remained at the Environmental Protection Agency were told to dismantle their own work." He is monstrous. Malignant, indeed.
Beyond malignant. His whole shtick is to allow those gazillionaire corporations to pollute all they want for profit and the long term repercussions of his ignorance can't be understated. Environmental concerns are not part of his very limited vocabulary or knowledge.
When I say malignant, I mean it in the medical sense of the word: a cancer which metastasizes, it spreads and kills the entire organism. (The "organisms" being our nation, and the entire world.)
He's a cancer to the entire world that is very difficult to treat especially when there are those who still refuse to acknowledge the level of the disease.
The administration scrubbed climate change from federal web pages. States began to mimic that. DeSantis signed a bill to do so on FL sites. KY state legislature budgeted $$ for the AG to use to “fight the green agenda.”
It (malignant) applies to all whatever this massive orange blob with a comb over and a too long red tie, is: an ingnorant, incompetent, heartless and soulless dangerous idiot!
He’s not there to work for the American people who voted him in, not for one second he’s there to help his buddies in the Oil industry. His deeply ingrained fans do not believe he knows or has anything to do with project “2025” ! You can argue until you are blue in the face, they are adamant that Donald has nothing to do with it, knows nothing about what’s in it. It’s shocking the damage Fox and other right wing media has done ala “Joseph Geobbles” to this country!
Coal billionaires also. He wanted the navy to return to coal and nix nuclear. His ambassador to Canada was the wife of a coal billionaire. Manchin made his million$ by exerting his influence. First as a state official. He obtained a corrupt a provision benefiting “alternative energy sources” to include the dirtiest form of coal. His family biz was built on it. The residents who are captive to the contract he has with their electric company are poor & pay extra because dirty coal is also the least efficient. Jim Justice who will likely take his place has been called by Forbes a “deadbeat billionaire”. His/his companies’ debts outweigh his wealth. And so on.
Manchin is a very nasty character. So is his daughter who bought the rights to Epi Pens and IMMEDIATELY jacked up the price for a box of two pens from $200 to $600!!! Many people could not afford the critical life-saving medication. Truly evil, greedy people!
— After Gayle Manchin took over the National Association of State Boards of Education in 2012, she spearheaded an unprecedented effort that encouraged states to require schools to purchase medical devices that fight life-threatening allergic reactions.
The association’s move helped pave the way for Mylan Specialty, maker of EpiPens, to develop a near monopoly in school nurses’ offices. Eleven states drafted laws requiring epinephrine auto-injectors. Nearly every other state recommended schools stock them after what the White House called the "EpiPen Law" in 2013 gave funding preference to those that did.
The CEO of Mylan then, and now, was Heather Bresch. Gayle Manchin is Heather Bresch’s mother. —
Influence peddling, price gouging, profiteers. But ol’ country boy Joe talks about how he just wants everybody to get along; come to the center. He’s a man of his word. Blah blah blah.
He’s a traitor let’s not forget that. He will let Ukraine fall into the hands of his boyfriend Putin without a thought given to the people of Ukraine and what may be next on Putin’s menu. What’s next? Lithuania, Latvia, Poland ? Trump doesn’t care. We cannot allow this shallow narcissist another chance to play “President “. I have never been so disgusted with the Republican Party as I am now putting a man like this with obvious DEMENTIA and a traitor as a representative of their party. Something extremely evil has invaded their philosophy and they now resemble more closely than ever the party of Adolph Hitler Trumps favorite Dictator. He will destroy our democracy! Please don’t vote for him, he is so Stupid and so mentally incapacitated! The Republicans are TRAITORS!
He wants to execute great public servants, like Gen. Mark Milley who secretly took command of the armed forces, telling them that if the orange sadist told them to release nuclear weapons, they HAD to contact him first. I think the orange sadist-traitor (thanks for that phrase) was going to start a nuclear war to upend the Inauguration and the transfer of power. Many, many of the repugnicants in power are traitors. Will the Democrats call for their executions?HELL, no! (Doggone it.)
As with anything that matters, Americans have but one choice. A reasoned, informed leader that will continue to invest in America’s future or a leader that will work to personally profit while seeking revenge against all he would claim as enemies.
(A) we need this planet….there ain’t nowhere else to go!
(B) we need democracy. As Winston Churchill said “democracy is the worst form of government until you’ve tried everything else”. Both these things need total and assertive support. Ms. Harris will support both our freedoms and liberties as well as the condition of our planet. Mr Trump will deny and threaten and protect himself. And come up with “concepts”.
I have a science degree, and I will always be on the side of saving the planet. I can't fathom why anyone would not want to do whatever they can to save the only home we have, whether they believe in climate change or not. I love diet soda, and I use a SodaStream device to make my own soda using a CO2 cylinder and reusable bottles. In addition, I always use reusable bags when I shop. These are small things, but we can all do our part. There is evidence that regulating certain industries works. I was born in Pennsylvania and spent part of my childhood there. I never remember the skies being very clear because coal mining was the major industry. In fact, my grandfather and uncles all worked in the mines. When I visited as an adult, there was a notable difference because of regulations. The sky was blue!
I always use reusable bags and it became the law in Vermont quite a few years ago that plastic shopping bags were banned. In No Carolina I was shocked to she the wide use of plastic shopping bags! A much larger state with a far larger population. In Vermont many Supermarkets had their own bags manufactured and sold them for $1. I use mine all the time, even for packing. Much less litter and waste. All states should do it and stores can advertise themselves on the bags. Think of how many plastic bags you won’t see in tree branches or smothering fish.
I agree, Suzy! I shop at Aldi's and have the bags they sell. I use them for just about everything. I read yesterday that California is banning the plastic shopping bags. I would love to see state after state do this very thing.
Isn't it interesting that the Trumpers would continue to placate big business and corporations that continue to trash the environment, ignoring the fact that many women are afraid to bring children into this trashed emvironment and climate crisis. When a woman or a couple says they are afraid to bring children into the world, it apparently falls on deaf Republican ears. "Family values?" What a load of baloney! For elephants, they sure have small listening capapbility and short memories! (And even real elephants have higher social and compassionate order within their ranks!)
I think they are more like ostriches - their heads are in the sand! (...though, as a birder, I dislike comparing a Republican to a bird species. Maybe a dinosaur is more apt?)
Trump 2.0 would not only be “game over for climate progress,” as a scientist you quoted said. But it would undo the progress the Biden-Harris administration has made, do away with the EPA and the NOAA weather service. As a resident of south Louisiana, where we are experiencing climate change up close and personal with each Gulf storm, I am terrified by the lack of attention in the press/media about this existential crisis. I worry what the climate will be like when my teenage grandson reaches his father’s age. I’m not sure why this issue is not foremost in voters’ minds, but we do have the option of voting for someone who at least includes clean air and water among the freedoms central to her platform.
Re: Climate Change. Explain how it costs Americans money. How it contributes to inflation. How prices in the grocery stores and, very soon, in the wine and spirits stores will be going up because Climate Change is causing droughts in California and the Mediterranean countries. Keep it simple. Don't load every climate change into memos, speeches, or legislation. Ask the GOP - - what are you doing about the cost of irrigating crops in California? Or Texas?
Trump says Canada has a YUGE faucet where they take all the water from melting snow and send it to the ocean so the farmers in California don’t get any water. He’s going to personally go to Canada and turn that faucet so the water goes to California. Yeah. He’s that stupid. One more reason to vote for Kamala.
Oh my God you are right, that is incredibly stupid! Do you think he really believes that? I am sure some of his supporters do! I once worked with some ladies that thought you could take a train to Europe from Boston or NY. I believe many Trump voters are that dumb too.
Hey! Doesn’t everyone believe it? That faucet is “as big as the building behind you.”
Think of the benefits, like —
“You have all that water that could be used to … what they call water flow — where the land would be damp,” Trump said. “And you’d stop many of these horrible fires that are costing billions and billions of dollars.”
You forgot the most important part, when you turn the faucet the other way it sucks all of the fresh water out of the Pacific ocean. You know all that beautiful, cold, clean, fresh water, and that gets directed to California.
Oh and we have that faucet not Canada, it takes a full day to turn that faucet one turn, if affects all the snow melt and streams on the west coast 🙄
“During his presidency, he rolled back more than a hundred environmental rules and regulations. He also exited the Paris climate accords. When Trump took office, hundreds of scientists working for the federal government were forced out or silenced. The climate scientists who remained at the Environmental Protection Agency were told to dismantle their own work.”
Where were the checks and balances? Where was the representation for the common good? We need to get Big money out of politics and lobbying, get rid of the electoral college so the voice of the majority really matters, and make laws for equality and equity that are truly enforceable.
Presidential pay is $400,000. +$50,O00 expense account while Hospital CEO pay is 2-23 million. Are their jobs really that much more difficult that that of the president. We are living under an oligarchy and we need to return to a democracy.
Perhaps we as a nation could adopt some EU campaign/voting standards.
First, political campaigns are limited to six months…includes Federal, state and local.
Second, there is a financial pool, and each acknowledged party with at least a confirmed voting percentage of 10%+ may may draw as much as a higher percentage party. (Say GOP @ DEM take 30% each, then ‘Green Party’ may also take the same, balance remains distributed among independents) This fund might come from slashing the Pentagon budget by 10%.
Third, contributions to any political party and/or person seeking public office are limited to say $5000.0, and this includes corporate and billionaire donations. You get one shot to throw five grand into the pot.
All political party funds are distributed between higher political office seekers and the local county aspirants… no under-the-table donations , all funding open to lightning inspections and audits.
Fourth, media advertising limited to ninety (90) days before an election; all elections on one day.
I agree with your post. To listen to political ads for over a year is daunting, to say the least. I think six months is fine and also to limit the financial pool. As it is now, you have to be really rich to even run for most offices in the U.S. Money and politics seem to go hand in hand!
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but this does not appear achievable, except perhaps in the very distant future. We can’t pick choose from other countries or the EU. EU countries allow more limits on speech & are more approving of publicly funded entities.
Public financing etc. of campaigns will only be voluntary (which killed it in its crib) as long as $$ is considered speech. Political speech is the most protected form of speech. SCOTUS proclaimed (as early as 1815) that corporations are people and more recently $$ is speech. I can’t foresee SCOTUS reversing Citizens United (2010) or otherwise unraveling this to say political speech can be limited to X amount of days or dollars.
DJT must be stopped. He has no plans only concepts if plans -most other areas are actually more like bribes -it is maddening to think such a jerk (total fruit) with no plan for America’s future could have a chance of being elected. I do agree the future lies with the younger voters and the educated population that can see through this MAGA nightmare.
If for no other reason then solving our climate change problem voting for Harris/Walz versus Trump/Vance is the smartest choice we as a nation should make.
This is yet another reason to keep Trumpy out of the White House!!! What planet is he living on??? Does he actually that the words coming out of his mouth are TRUTHS?
He isn’t just bad for our country, he’s bad for our Earth!
He doesn’t care about the planet. His ONLY interest is himself. Short term he stays out of prison and pockets a ton of money. Long term isn’t his concern. He knows he will be dead by the time Earth is uninhabitable.
He could run from prison. Eugene Debs did in 1920 and received 1,000,000 votes.
I guess the provisions of the Constitution for impeachment and the 25th Amendment were supposed to protect us. Also, they thought the House & Senate would not act in lock step on national politics because of state & regional needs and issues. All that to say they did not put a requirement for federal candidates to not have criminal convictions or indictment. Maybe we’re fortunate it took this long to fool them. 🙃
Until, we the people, apply the requisite pressure to everyone in government, there will be an ongoing tepid approach. Lots of talk about what is needed, but the instant the needed capital is brought into the discussion, that talk dies down to a whisper. This will take everyone, and it will take money, a lot of it.
As for Trump vs Harris on the environment? There really is no choice. We will either vote for the continued existence of humans, or not.
Here's a suggestion: Ask Schumer to re-introduce the Landmark Immigration Reform package again before the end of October. If it passes, good. If the GOP drills a hole in it and sinks it, then one of the key campaign issues is fresh in the mind of the voters.
If Trump is re-elected, have him start drinking oil instead of water. See how long he lasts.
It is obvious he is the worst thing that has happened to our environment except for the Supreme Court that rules in favor of big money , billionaires and corporations .
"During his presidency, he rolled back more than a hundred environmental rules and regulations. He also exited the Paris climate accords. When Trump took office, hundreds of scientists working for the federal government were forced out or silenced.

He's a cancer to the entire world that is very difficult to treat especially when there are those who still refuse to acknowledge the level of the disease.
Yes. If he is allowed to enter our "organism" (government) again, he will kill it.
A not so slow but painful death.

Absolutely a NIGHTMARE. I don't wish bad on people, but in these cases: may they choke on their own pollution!
Thanks a lot. These guys don’t live where they will choke on it.
Then someone needs to fan it their way. Using a very, VERY big fan.
He only cares about himself &$$$$. He is a malignant cancer trying to destroy Our Democracy!
It (malignant) applies to all whatever this massive orange blob with a comb over and a too long red tie, is: an ingnorant, incompetent, heartless and soulless dangerous idiot!
Yes.

Frankly his ‘word’ up for auction.
And don't forget: he's also there to do whatever pukin wants, in exchange for ($$$$$? not revealing some horrible secret about the orange sadist??)
He’s a traitor let’s not forget that. He will let Ukraine fall into the hands of his boyfriend Putin without a thought given to the people of Ukraine and what may be next on Putin’s menu.

Insulting to turkey vultures, LVD, because they're useful in the ecosystem. Unlike Rs.
There are other birds that are just as useful. Turkey vultures are ugly and nasty. Just like you know who and those that worship him and his ilk

No other way out of the mess.
Vote blue down-ballot as well, because there lies the foundation of future progress.
