SCOTUS just sided with polluters—again. 115 million people live in areas with dangerously high smog levels, yet this ruling weakens EPA’s ability to stop smog from crossing state lines.This will make Americans sicker. I will keep fighting for public health over corporate wealth.

Assuming this post today is aimed at us. The Trump admin changed the rules to make it easier to replace career federal employees with political loyalists. If you’re not alarmed by Trump’s post, you should be. This isn’t about policy it’s about control. It’s “do as I say, or you’re replaced.”

Also America did not have long or onerous lockdowns, I am going to lose my mind
Posting about the 'laptop class' or 'PMCs' is the class analysis of fools. Scratch the surface and its really about disdain towards women and feminised men. Also, as with any complaints about how COVID was handled, kids being slightly ahead in school isn't worth trading for a single human life.

There are some chances to slow or potentially stop it. Need constant pressure on GOP
Focus on GOP swing seats & key committees. Energy & Commerce is where the Medicaid fight will go down. Ways&Means for tax fight.
