MAGA really wants to wipe out the majority of humans.
Today EPA chief Lee Zeldin announced that the agency is rolling back 31 regulations.
He's taking aim at mercury, soot, and toxic pollution restrictions, and federal protection of wetlands.
The EPA will also rewrite rules limiting pollution from fossil-fuel plants and cars, and more.

The next time anyone tries to argue that this administration is cutting wasteful spending…
The U.S. has emptied Guantánamo again of its last 40 migrants, sent them back to stateside facilities without explanation. It has deployed 1,000 extra soldiers, ICE agents and contractors to this Pentagon and Homeland Security mission that has so far cost $16m.

A court filing described strip searches and the use of restraint chairs on some of the 290 migrants the Trump administration has cycled through the base.

It appears our government has mostly always been a gentleman's agreement, backed by an oath of office. Guess what, trump is not a gentleman and the right wing seems to have shed all pretense and put on its Nazi jack boots and Klan robes.

Democracy doesn’t mean whoever wins a slight plurality in the national vote gets to rewrite every American institution to satisfy their own whims. The president is not an elected king. If we let him become one, the project of American democracy is over.
