Trump's D.C. Chainsaw Massacre: Over 500 Historic Trees Gutted to Build a Millionaire's Golf Course

Donald Trump has begun actively destroying hundreds of trees in Washington, D.C., and the lack of mainstream coverage is absolutely criminal.

Please scream this from the rooftops and spread the word immediately! These aren't dead, dying, or invasive trees — these are perfectly healthy, decades-old oak and maple trees that are being brutally clear-cut. This disturbing footage from Rick Maese at The Washington Post exposes the truth: the Trump administration is massacring upwards of 500 healthy, historic trees at the East Potomac Golf Course.

But honestly, why are we surprised? This is just the latest chapter in Trump's complete and utter disregard for our nation's historic capital. It follows the exact same playbook as his shocking demolition of the White House East Wing, and the disastrous, botched "renovations" of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool that left an iconic American landmark falling apart and peeling. To make matters even more sickening, they've even been dumping toxic debris from the demolished East Wing right onto this very public parkland!

The National Park Service is trying to gaslight the public by claiming this ecological disaster is just routine maintenance, but we know the truth: they are gutting public land to build a glitzy, exclusive championship golf course. Residents across the city are rightfully furious and disgusted. Witnessing 500+ majestic trees being ripped out of the ground is an absolute horror show for the people living in this city.

Do not let them slide on this. Share this everywhere, expose this environmental atrocity, and follow for updates.

🔴'Many WATER companies are near #insolvency, so they want to hike our water bills again.

The government must say NO. If they can't survive, let them go bust and take them into public ownership FOR NOTHING.

When Colorado Parks and Wildlife announced plans to consider killing more wolves under its chronic depredation directive, we asked you to speak up.
And you did. Nearly 5,200 messages went to CPW and the Colorado Parks and Wildlife Commission urging them to stop killing wolves and reconsider their approach, which is not only threatening individual wolves but also the fledgling population.
This message is from Wildlife for All.

I'm American and I hope Ukraine blows every fucking refinery in rUssia to dust.

@potus you will be remembered as a traitor.

It is time for governments around the world to ostracise the USA. Isolate them. Let them survive in their own shit.
Withdraw from NATO. Defund it.
Call in our US debts. Make them pay them back.
Withdraw from treaties with this pirate nation.
Block them.
They want isolationism? They've got it.

Kalimantan is still burning and Orangutans and tropical rainforest is still dying. Don’t stop resharing this! 😭🦧

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

Televising a public execution is beyond disgusting and barbaric. The death penalty should not exist, let alone be a live-streamed spectacle.

This is a grotesque violation of human dignity. We must oppose this - and the death penalty - everywhere.

"Ireland is one of only three European countries that still allow this annual torture of the hare to continue. In the last 15 years, more than 65,000 Irish hares have been captured from the wild and forced to participate in barbarism" - Paul Murphy TD (People Before Profit)

Trophy hunting really is pretty gross. Lots of Americans love it. Why kill a bobcat, especially in a horrid trap like this? Awful.

I'd quadruple that sentence.....

Monkey torturer who ran online 'cult' that dressed animals as babies and fed them into blenders is jailed for less than four years - and will be out after serving just one-third of that

Sickening

[Prem Sikka @premnsikka]

Shell’s refineries expected to make record profits.

Profit margins of $42 a barrel, up from $24 a barrel. Cashing in on global conflicts.

Bumper payouts for exec and shareholders. Misery for households and businesses.

Must levy 100% windfal tax.

Montana nor Wyoming reported death of wolf today. I hope it will continue this way. No wolf deserve persecution like they were suffering every year.

Firing squad execution to be livestreamed, Pentagon says.

Lost for words at the insanity in Trumpistan, a truly sick dictatorship.

Like medieval times, executions offered as a public spectacle in a country that claims to be Christian.

What next?

I’m old enough to remember when we thought Isis was barbaric for filming execution videos.

Now the extremist terrorists are running the United States.

Tory £6bn inheritance tax cut plan

Increase threshold from £1m per couple to £2m+family home

In 2024-25, 30,400 estates paid IHT, may rise to 52,100 in 2029-30.

IHT cut for the richest, paid by cutting benefits for old, sick, disabled unemployed.

Greenland fishermen want to cull 1,000 sharks that can live over 400 years and only start to reproduce at the age of 150 with $45 per heart bounty
The plan has been dropped but there is momentum growing to kill the sharks

For 60 years the blue tits of Britain broke into the milk on your doorstep, and all they ever took was the cream.

It was first seen in Swaythling, near Southampton, in 1921. A blue tit landed on a bottle, pecked through the cap and drank. By the 1950s every tit in the country seemed to know the trick. Housewives put out saucers, stones and upturned cups. The birds learned to follow the milk float down the street and be waiting at the next step.

You will remember the bottle. Silver foil on top, and beneath it 2 inches of thick yellow cream that had risen overnight, with the white milk underneath. The first one down in the morning got it on the porridge.

That cream was the whole point of the burglary. A bird cannot digest milk. It has no means of handling the sugar in it. Cream is nearly all fat, with very little sugar, so the tits drank down to the line and stopped.

A wild animal weighing 11 grams, with every bird table and berry bush in the street to choose from, worked out how to open a sealed container to get at butterfat.

Then the habit died, in about 10 years. Nobody trapped them or changed the caps. The milk changed. It was homogenised so the cream no longer rose, then skimmed so it was hardly there, then moved to a plastic jug in a supermarket.

The blue tits inspected the red top, found nothing in it worth stealing, and went back to the hedge.

They were the last creatures in Britain to judge a pint of milk on what was actually in it.
