Listen to this incredible crackpot in charge of our public health....
CNBC: The EPA is moving to rescind this endangerment finding on carbon dioxide and greenhouses gases. Is that a danger to public health?

MAKARY: To be honest, I don't know enough about that issue

CNBC: You're in charge of our public health! Can you look into it for us?

The exact moment when we as a country lost our g d minds.
If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people:

1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money
3) We won’t need a lot of troops
4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq
5) We’ll find WMDs
6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators
7) It will be easy
8) It won’t take long

All lies.

Once you get into business with the Mob, you can never get out.
Donald Trump knows that he owns these cowardly law firms. Here are a few recommendations:

Paul Weiss can litigate to bring children back in the mines.
Milbank can challenge clean air rules.
Willkie Farr can lead on spoiling the water.
Skadden is perfect to break the unions.

Shameful all.
Trump announced that as part of tens of millions of dollars of pro bono services law firms will be providing to him as a result of his shakedowns, law firms will work with coal companies on "leasing and other things"

It is a sad day for the legal industry. Paul Weiss, didn't just bend a knee, it set a new standard for shameful capitulation. This is a stain on the firm, every one of its partners, and the entire legal profession.
