Trump is trying to hand billionaires another tax cut — while climate disasters get deadlier and the rest of us foot the bill. The ones who should be paying? Big Oil companies like @exxonmobiloil.bsky.social that caused the climate crisis.

Adam Schiff is on Kash Patel’s “enemies list”
He also declined to accept a pardon from President Biden
