Has there ever been a time in American history where the federal government has worked so hard against the best interest of the American people

❌ bar courthouse doors for communities
💰 stick taxpayers with the bill for climate damages
😡 bail out polluters from paying for the mess they made
📣 No immunity for Big Oil! 📣
