The EPA no longer exists. Its actions yesterday were an act of appeasement for the oil and gas industry, the very sector it’s meant to oversee.
POTUS doesn’t care about your health or your child’s health.

👀 Jared Kushner... Redacted?
The president's son-in-law is at the center of a huge new scandal. Plus: the Trump administration's war on the climate and the Pakistani government's war on Imran Khan's health.

But you wouldn't know that from going to the Clerk site because they just amended it to a unanimous, bipartisan bill to disguise it.

The GOP’s “Save America Act” requires states to implement voter purge programs using data from sources that experts call unreliable, such as DHS’s SAVE program (which DOGE “overhauled”) & the SSA’s # Verification System (despite DOGE’s mishandling of SSA data). How did this crap pass the House??

This isn’t about voter fraud or undocumented immigrants.
This is about suppressing the female vote.
