Trump regulatory czar Jeffrey Clark should be disbarred for role in 2020 election plot, disciplinary board rules The ruling is based on Clark’s effort to pressure DOJ leaders to issue a false statement that there was evidence of significant election fraud.

Good thing the DC Bar is not headed by Pam Bondi’s brother.

If MTG’s looking for those responsible for intentional climate modification, look no farther than the coal, oil, and gas companies.

E&E News: GHG booster to Zeldin: Beware β€˜public health harms’ of regulations Documents show that fossil energy promoter Alex Epstein asked the EPA administrator to stop using a scientific model to project climate impacts.

Looks like EPA chief has his own Epstein. subscriber.politicopro.com/article/eene...

ICE crackdown imperils Afghans who aided U.S. war effort, lawyers say Advocates fear President Donald Trump’s ambitious deportation plan jeopardizes Afghan interpreters and other allies who worked for U.S. troops during the war.

A disgrace.

β€œOne former interpreter for U.S. forces in Afghanistan was detained by immigration agents after he showed up for a routine green card appointment. A second was arrested just minutes after attending his first asylum hearing in San Diego.”

White House economist calls for 'fresh set of eyes at the BLS' after weak jobs report | Fox Business Video National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett discusses the latest jobs report, the firing of the labor statistics chief and the consumer impact of tariffs on 'Fox News Sunday.'

Hassett went on TV and claimed you can’t trust the economic data anymore because all the recent revisions are partisan.
A bald-faced lie.
Every serious economist still in this administration should resign. They are actively underminding the US economy by lending their credibility to this horse****

It’s amazing how every single sentence coming out of Zeldin’s mouth in defending his proposed repeal of EPA’s endangerment finding is a lie. To understand the truth, see:

Listening to James Taylor:

β€œI used to think that I was cool,
Driving around on fossil fuels.
Now I know what I was doing’,
Was driving down the road to ruin”

And the EPA wants to say climate change is not a threat to human health (highly toxic smoke across much of the US is ok?) and welfare (whole towns cities burning is ok?). What are those climate deniers smoking?!

A truly great time for the Trump EPA to propose revoking the scientific finding that climate change from carbon pollution endangers our health.
