We should all be terrified of Trump’s Project 2025 (The Guardian)

The presumptive Republican nominee has promised to give rightwing evangelical Christians what they want – and more.

Trump may want to distance himself from Project 2025 in order to come off less bonkers to independents and moderates, but he can’t escape it. The document embodies everything he stands for.

👆 Assuming "something will sort it" is akin to thinking we were all prepped for #Covid19 and will be for the next pandemic/mutation.

“Commissioner Allan has already demonstrated time and again that Albertans should not take his findings seriously,” he added. “If it wasn’t already obvious, the commissioner’s latest update of climate denier reports makes it clear: This inquiry lacks any shred of credibility.”

US Proposing Easing Rules on Climate-Changing Oil Emissions

Deliberately loosening #methane regulations really ought to be made a #warcrime. At least Shell realized the optics looked bad, the other oil companies seem to be rooting for this.
