Scientists at Trump’s EPA say they are being told to make chemical risks “disappear on paper.” Not to study or manage them, but to make them vanish.
When a safety test on a household chemical shows danger, supervisors reportedly ask to keep shrinking the scenario until the poison looks safe.
They have reassigned senior scientists to paperwork and handed life-and-death risk assessments to staff with less experience. They have installed former chemical industry lobbyists to run the very offices that are supposed to regulate the chemical industry.
A gift to industry, paid for with your family’s health.
They are even throwing out research on how certain chemicals hit certain communities harder, calling decades of established science “DEI.”
You can make risk disappear on paper.
The cancer does not disappear.
The birth defects do not disappear.
The infertility does not disappear.
The kids drinking the water and getting sick do not disappear.
The EPA exists to protect people, not to protect the profit margins of the people poisoning them.
Every American deserves to know what is happening. #TrumpMakesUsSick

The saddest thing is that I now look back on my life and none of it seems genuine or meaningful. All the relationships I had have turned to dust, did any of it ever mean anything in the first place?
There are couple of exceptions but overall it has all gone without a trace.
The whole argument that separation would put more money in Albertans pockets is bullshit.
The UCP will relax rules to make the highest ups of the energy sector to make more money without restrictions.
There’s a reason they hate unions, secondary education, and minimum wages.
🚨BREAKING: Epstein file says Trump knew about underage sex parties occurring at his golf course and that revenue from the club was used to fund them.
Trump has known for days this was about to be published in his home state of Florida.

For all of the UCP who are lighting their hair on fire over the hiring of a former journalist to a partisan role in politics…
We’ve got just two words.
Arthur Green.
Thank you for coming to our TED Talk.

This is IMPORTANT. This is how this govt is quietly, deviously, intentionally destroying OUR Public HC. THEY HAVE NO MANDATE FOR THIS.
Our Drs have been frontline, doing what they can to fight this. It’s time ALBERTANS JOIN THE FIGHT.

The UCP’s melt down over the NDP’s new hire shows just how scared they are.
Perhaps it’s their sinking polls, or maybe their internal fights over separatism, which will waste $100M to satiate their base.
Fun times ahead!
A universal basic income would provide all Canadians an additional income above what they currently make. It would eliminate government program bureaucracy by putting current social support programs under one umbrella, it would stimulate our economy, allow citizens to….1/2
With every passing day and every new study I am increasingly grateful that I and my family chose to keep our covid infections to as low a number as possible.
Asking you to just shoulder the entire burden of letting a brain damaging virus run rampant means that the people in charge treat you worse than dirt. Being in denial means you are letting them treat you so.
You’re better than this, pick yourself up, and put a fucking mask on.
If more people wore masks to avoid getting sick, we’d see operation warp speed to develop invisible protections and safer indoor spaces, because the illusion of normal is the ultimate goal.
So, maskless scientists are blocking the very progress they‘re trying to achieve.
The damage men have done to our culture, both in embracing this misogyny or ignoring it, will profoundly alter a generation. If men were Protectors, they would have hunted these men & their supporters for sport. Instead they follow them, defend them, or pretend they're irrelevant
Trump left the White House around noon on Friday; he is just now returning, we have been paying for a geriatric drug addict to abuse reporters, attend basketball games and hang out at his shitty NJ golf club for four days in the middle of a war he has no idea how to finish.
