In just one week Trump moved to gut 3 environmental laws. His EPA said it will end protections for millions of acres. He announced changes to the Endangered Species Act that could make it harder to rescue species. His Interior Department moved to allow new oil and gas drilling across 1.3B acres

Remember the Deep Water Horizon?! That disastrous oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico? One of the worst environmental disasters ever? Guess what? Trump is proposing to open ocean off the CA, FL and AK coast to new oil and gas drilling. First time in 40 yrs for new CA drilling.

Trump is using the gov shutdown to pump up his illegal moves to shutter DOE. He’s shriveling agencies for civil rights, special ed, K-12, tribal colleges and HBCUs. He’s cutting staff, ending grant programs, cancelling contracts and moving the gutted functions to other federal agencies.

Who cares about tracking toxins in our food? Six Americans are dead of listeria poisoning in pasta months after Trump cut the program that tracks listeria and other food poisons. Does Trump have a poison taster in his meals? Looks like we all need one now.

Trump played the part of champion for coal miners but now he’s contributing to their deaths. He’s blocking enforcement of a new rule to protect coal miners from Black Lung disease, an incurable disease from exposure to silica dust. Miners and their families protested outside the Labor Department.

#trumpshutdown Americans working for the federal gov are out 2 paychecks and going to food banks. While 37 crypto bros, Silicon Valley giants and Trump sycophants pay for Trump’s $300M ballroom. The ballroom that will overwhelm the White House he desecrated and desecrates just by living there.

Trump is sending the FBI, DHS and IRS to investigate groups that oppose his agenda. This fascist move aims to intimidate his most effective opponents and bankrupt them when they have to fight in court. BUT IT WON’T WORK. Americans will stand up and stop him. We will fight for our country.

#trumphatesourhealthcare First 12 states out with next year’s premium hikes and they are killing- literally as people will drop their health care and some will die. Hikes of $10k, $20k, and more. For every 1 million Americans whose health care Trump and GOP take away 830 Americans die.

Trump’s cooking up a new reg to take away Social Security disability from hundreds of thousands of Americans over 50 including their widows and children. Obviously it’s harder to find work if you have a disability and you’re over 50 but his SSA may stop considering this a factor.

Trump’s proven he’d rather shut down the gov than stop health insurance premiums from soaring by thousands of dollars a year from millions of hardworking Americans. He’s taking away health care from 14+millions to keep those huge tax breaks for the super rich.

More mining in wilderness areas! Trump’s now targeting Minnesota’s Land of 1,000 Lakes, the glorious Boundary Waters, where activists have held off a giant copper mine for decades. AZ and AK also in his sites for mine pollution near/in wilderness.

Trump’s Supremes took one more step toward making him king. The Court said Trump could fire a commissioner for any reason, stripping away Congressional protections that firings must be because a commissioner screwed up big. But the Supremes ignored their own precedent and let Trump have his way.

Trump is gutting the cancer research that has increased survival rates from half to two-thirds. Slashing research by hundreds of millions. Ten times the number of political appointees at NCI. Every $326 in cancer research saves a life. How many of us, our families, our friends will die?

It’s MAHA moms v. the farm lobby! The moms are up in arms that Republicans in Congress may shut down lawsuits against the pesticides in the weed-killer Roundup. Thousands of lawsuits claim Roundup causes cancer in people who use it frequently but the GOP budget bill would stop those.

Trump could get Kimmel fired because ABC and a company that owns 200 TV stations are waiting approval of mega-mergers. Nexstar said it was pulling Kimmel off its 200 stations wants a $6B merger approved by the FCC. Disney, which owns ABC, wants to buy Fubol. Same way Trump got CBS to fire Colbert.

They call it the Katrina Declaration. Almost 200 FEMA employees of FEMA warned that the people Trump hired to run FEMA are so incompetent and unqualified that they are inviting another disaster like that following Hurricane Katrina.
September 17, 2025 at 3:11 PM
You can’t make this up! Trump slashed tracking of eight food-born illnesses, including two that killed 72 people just three years ago and made thousands sick. Is he washing his tiny hands enough?
September 15, 2025 at 3:34 PM
I’ll just let Justice Sotomayor tell the story: “We should not have to live in a country where the Government can seize anyone who looks Latino, speaks Spanish, and appears to work a low wage job.”That’s Trump country.
September 13, 2025 at 4:49 PM
So what if federal law prohibits civilians from owning machine guns? Trump is allowing automatic rifles to be turned into machine guns, dropping a legal challenge to a device that does just that. Plus his Big Bullshit Bill makes owning silencers and shotguns cheaper. Keep your head way down!

Love your national park? Well if bathrooms are poopy or there are no rangers to give you a tour just thank Trump. One-quarter of permanent staff are gone since he took office. 90 parks say it’s really hurting their services. Is there anything sacred for this man?

DCers are mocking and resisting Trump’s attempt to take over their city. When a man threw a hoagie at a federal agent he became a hero and a grand jury refused to indict. They are playing the Darth Fader march at the White House and blocking arrests of fellow citizens.

Trump slashed a simple program that kept children around the world alive. From Nigeria to Nepal the program distributed packets of nutritious mix. A 6 wk treatment costs under $45. USAID funded half the world’s supply, but Trump forced many sites to close when he withdrew aid and dismantled USAID.

Trump is taking away health coverage from more than 14 million Americans by sending their health insurance premiums through the roof and adding layers and layers of often impossible paperwork. Slashing Medicaid and gutting Obamacare.
August 27, 2025 at 3:43 PM
Trump wants a new reg that will take away minimum wage and overtime protection from people who provide home care, personal and hospice care at home. As it is, these essential working people are underpaid and it’s very hard for families to find people to care for elderly or disabled family members.

A federal judge blocked a Trump rule that would have made it impossible to protect women under the Violence Against Women Act. Trump’s order, through the DOJ, prohibits groups that support women from considering “gender ideology” and race, many of the primary factors driving violence against women.
