ProPublica obtained 3,000 pages of emails sent last year by executives asking that their facilities be exempted from Clean Air Act requirements.
The White House approved more than 180 requests and is considering more.

Remember, there was a UFC fight on the White House lawn - because honestly, everyone forgot about that shit and it only happened a short while ago but it was so fucking lame and stupid no one wanted to remember it.
Charlamagne tha God: “I like whenever they speak out against the Obamas because it reminds us of what the White House is currently lacking. It’s a reminder there’s no dignity in the White House anymore, there’s no class in the White House anymore”
NEW EPISODE: The DOJ has sued 31 states to seize your most sensitive voter data. They've lost every single case so far: nine courts, zero wins. I break down why Trump is building a national voter list the White House controls. https://t.co/CwxxTpCrpc
🚨BREAKING: Maryland Federal Court DISMISSES Department of Justice lawsuit to gain access to state voter data. A big victory for our clients Maryland/DC Alliance for Retired Americans and democracy.
DOJ is now 0-9 in these cases. We are undefeated.🗳️💪⚖️ https://t.co/ksCZx1rudO
🚨 Big news, Michigan!
We’re erasing over $74 million in medical debt for over 72,000 Michiganders in the second round of medical debt forgiveness. Our partnership with @unduemeddebt means fewer Michigan families have to choose between buying groceries or paying medical bills.
Jack Smith’s report on Donald Trump’s mishandling of classified documents and obstruction of justice is still hidden, thanks to Trump’s personal lawyers taking over the DOJ.
I’m filing a brief — joined by every member of @JudiciaryDems — to make it clear to the court that the corrupt process that hid the report must not prevail. Congress and the public are entitled to the truth.
In yet ANOTHER unsigned court order, Trump’s Supreme Court majority just made it harder for disabled Americans to vote.
They're literally weakening protections for some of the most vulnerable people in our country.
This is voter suppression!
Scientists in Atlanta were stopped from criticizing the Trump admin at a scientific conference, so let me do it here:
Trump is destroying biomedical research in America, and it will take decades to get back on track.
Spread the word. Stand up for science.
"The people of Minnesota managed to draw worldwide credit to themselves last winter by staring down ICE agents — in sub-zero temperatures, at the risk of being shot.
If they can do it, we Utahns can, too," writes The Salt Lake Tribune editorial board. https://t.co/4s61Yi45oH
So he can in fact call in the National Guard whenever he wants. He just refused to do it to protect the Capitol on January 6th for 187 minutes. Glad we cleared that up.
I’ve resigned from The Baltimore Sun after 25 years of politics and sports reporting. I was proud to have been there during a long period when our reporting followed the facts wherever they happened to lead. I’m not saying anything readers can’t see for themselves, but The Sun has changed since its purchase by David Smith, executive chairman of the Sinclair Broadcast Group. I no longer fit there. I’m grateful to the sources whose trust enabled me to report responsibly, and to the readers who supported our work. I’m exploring new opportunities inside and outside journalism. My DMs are open.
The maximum amount a person can donate to a candidate is $3500.
Miriam Adelson just donated another $25 million.
Citizens United didn’t give corporations “free speech.”
It let billionaires buy elections and legally bribe politicians.
End Citizens United.
This is election rigging, plain and simple. Trump is using access to federal grants to coerce states into letting Trump decide who can vote. Hell no! https://t.co/9xJvuFYjt6
A federal court just confirmed what everyone already knew:
Trump’s DOJ is illegally using the machinery of government to target his political enemies with bogus investigations.
That’s not justice. It’s corruption. IT MUST END!
The Trump Administration is doubling down on its unlawful campaign to block California’s longstanding authority to address air pollution and adopt stringent clean vehicle and equipment standards.
We’re suing.
This latest action would mean more pollution, worse air quality and greater health risks for our communities. We won’t tolerate it.
