It's going to be the most expensive ballroom every -- $1.4 billion. From us taxpayers, $1 billion and the #47's billionaire friends, $400 million. Billionaires should just foot the entire bill. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...?

Why is the #MAGA #47 undercutting his Secretary of Health's #MAHA goals of eliminating exposure to toxins?

An emergency executive order requiring coal plants to keep running. Plants that everywhere besides #47s delusional mind are unneeded; plants whose pollution contributes significantly to sickness and death; plants that increase #EnergyCost - Even the #FossilFools of Industry don't think coal makes sense.

White House moves to keep costly, dirty, unneeded Michigan coal plants open

One plant produces more arsenic pollution than any other in US, and the other has been slated for closure since 2021

@skeptator Gemeint ist wohl: Total viele.
Und sogar "Zehntausende" ist wohl deutlich mehr als das Publikum bei #47s Geburtstagsparade.

@Lazarou IIRC, most of #47s base is evangelical, and they tend to see Catholics as un-Christian.
They might have a point, but also need to look in the mirror.

@[email protected] it is still beyond me why everybody is screams about incompetence but misses that: 1) it normalises that 18 high ranking officials in #47s government can authorise an attack on a civilian building in a country that they are not at war with to kill a 'missile expert' when he arrives at his girlfriends apartment and in doing so kill 53 civilians 2) #47s cabinet members know so well that they are wrong, that they use a commercial chat app to leave no official trace nor documents

@paulk @[email protected] in aanbouw? Hij is al jarenlang #47s en Netanjahu's schoothondje, zonder visie, empatie of ruggegraat. En, inclusief zijn Nato-pluche sollicitatie, het toeslagenschandaal-schadeherstel en de herbouw van Groningen na het geweld van Shell en Exxon: op kosten van de Nederlanse belastingbetalers. Met ernstig verlies van vertrouwen in overheid, politiek en media als colateral damage. Onbetrouwbare l*l.

a trumper just got on the line and asked Schrier about how she's supporting #47s efforts to root out waste, fraud, etc. Rep Schrier just said she's willing to work with Trump and reach across the aisle, etc, etc....we are so lost, I have no faith this country is going to survive in any way but in name only 2/2
