Fox cheers Trump’s repeal of the EPA endangerment finding β€” a move that could cost thousands of lives and billions of dollars in health care costs

Another attempt to eliminate clean air and water for the benefit of our wonderful plutocrats. They're paying Don well for this. His descendants will die early just like most of us will.

Nick Fuentes: β€œThe number one political enemy in America is women. … They have to be imprisoned.”

No halfway measures for this BOZO. He feels the women are our major threat. I wonder if he has any use for many of us of either sex. If your a sexy compliant brood mare you'll have to prove it to him.

Culture is not taken away. If it fails to be engaging. If it simply repeats itself, does not inspire new work. It tends to disappear.
