Congress gets free healthcare for life, a pension when they retire, and $79 A DAY for lunch... that’s all BEFORE their $175,000 a year salary.
The system is a joke and tax payers are the punchline.
Two Black lawmakers were arrested for their opposition against white state legislators eliminating Black representation in the state of Tennessee.
Absolutely insane things are happening in the year 2026.
It makes me sad that he’s been ringing the alarm of climate disaster for decades and everyone is just like ‘aw what a sweet old national treasure’ and ignoring him
In 4 years I have lost:
- my right to an abortion
- my ability to obtain financial aid to pay for a degree
- my right to clean air and water
- my right to safe food free of forever chemicals
- my right to be represented in Congress as a taxpaying citizen through the VRA
I hate this country.
BREAKING: Trump announces plan to allow corporations to dump coal ash – which is TWICE as radioactive as *nuclear fuel* – into our drinking water!
Yes, you read that right. Trump’s EPA is proposing to weaken rules for the safe disposal of super-mega-toxic ash produced by burning coal that contains hazardous heavy metals and contaminates groundwater.
“The Trump administration proposed easing standards for monitoring and protecting groundwater near some coal ash sites, and rolling back rules that require the cleanup of entire coal properties rather than just the sites where ash was dumped. The revisions would also make it easier to reuse coal ash for other purposes,” reports the Associated Press.
EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin said the proposal reflects the agency’s “commitment to restoring American energy dominance, strengthening cooperative federalism, and accommodating unique circumstances at certain (coal) facilities.”
The rules were strengthened by – you guessed it – the Biden administration a few years ago, and now Trump is trying to gut them on behalf of his cronies in Big Coal.
It is shocking to see just how eagerly the Trump administration is gutting all the regulations that keep us safe.
“The Trump administration just took a sledgehammer to the health protections in place for toxic coal pollution,” said Lisa Evans, senior counsel at environmental group Earthjustice. “This is yet another handout to the coal power industry at the expense of our health, water, and wallets.”
He is more than willing to make us drink poison and develop terrible cancers, all so his donors can save a little bit of money on cleaning up the toxic byproducts of their carbon pollution.
There is nothing sacred to these nihilistic scumbags, no respect for anything but their own bottom lines. Trump is willing to burn everything to the ground just so he can be king of the ashes – with not a care in the world for the millions of people who will suffer and die because of his decisions.
when the trees are gone & the water is no longer clean & our natural resources are depleted & they’re trying to sell us bottled air like the fucking lorax, when nature becomes a luxury & the bees disappear and the food supply dwindles, at least you owned the libs, am I right?!
Just a reminder that impeachment means nothing if congress doesn't have the balls to actually remove him. And even then, would he go to jail this time?
France made this wastefulness illegal cause it’s cruel and only causes more waste issues. Any food market or restaurant over 400 square meters has to donate all their good unsold food to charities and are fined if they do anything like this. That law should be applied everywhere
