âAre you now, or have you ever been, a thinking human being who cares about the consequences of your actions?â
Get the answers ready, because once he is POTUS, heâs the boss.
Donald Trump, the 45th US President doesnât believe in climate change.
He currently has plenty of positions on the subject, but at last check, Donald Trump, the 45th US President doesnât believe in climate change.
Also Ivanka Trump didnât hire a climate change denier to run the EPA, her father did.
The Boss lives in Moscow.
Sort of makes you wonder what those Green Party people who voted for Trump or did not vote at all because Clinton was so bad are thinking right about now.
Elections have consequences. In 1968, many of us hated Hubert Humphrey the ârunning dog Capitalist lackeyâ that we sat out the election and had Nixon tor 8 years.
History repeating itself? Sort of. Trump is worse than Nixon by orders of magnitude. And remember, the EPA was Nixonâs babyâŚ
Welp, in addition to being the most corrupt by a wide margin, this will also be an administration despised for and crippled by its denial of reality. As James Fallows noted with astonishment months ago, Trump went to California and told them there was no drought there.
'Bernie was cheated by the man. â
The GOP will deal with any and all water shortages by putting a price on it. Turn water into a marketable commodity in that hands of corporations.
If you canât afford to pay for it? Well that is just too bad. Sucking on rocks always quenched the thirst in the movies. Not sure it will help your vegetable garden. But no one said that life was fair. /s/
Hey, guess who bought up LOTS of South American water rights? The Carlyle Group (Bush the 1st)
Perhaps the State Department might also want to consider migrating data NOTB soon to keep it safeâŚ
Iâm seeing data housing in other countries becoming a growth industry in the next four years.
Employees in the Bureau of Oceans and International Environmental and Scientific Affairs were given a questionnaire last week which asked in part: âHow much does the Department of State contribute annually to international environmental organizations in which the department participates?â
I hope they all answered with some version of âHow the fuck should I know? Do your homework and ask the right person. Meanwhile, ask me a question related to my actual job and I will be happy to answer.â
I think he just wants to find out how much money he can shift to th Bureau for Finding Obamas Longform Birth Certificate with the Raised Seal.
Yet, we already do pay for it. My guess is that it is AIR that will be the new marketable commodity. Want a whiff of non-polluted air? Just buy our tanksful for a steep price and all will be wellâŚ
Trump Air (as opposed to the defunct Trump AirLINE) will be the next marketable product he and his minions will produce and attempt to profit off of.
"An unnamed transition official told CNN the following day that the questionnaire was ânot authorizedâ and that the person who sent it had been âproperly counseled.ââ
Yes, âproperly counseledâ to conduct their McCarthy-ite witch hunting less conspicuously.
So much destruction to departments of the Executive Branch are in the making - Amway $ to privatize schools as an example - can go through the list and its clear. Blow things up.
But - the thread that come back again and again (in following stories - look for consistencies because behind those are patterns and indications of guiding intent) Oil, oil, oil coupled with Russia (oil), Russia (oil) and Russia, and Variations of extreme focus and hostility around Climate Change (Epa, Dept Energy, now Dept State.)
I think there is a general principal of muck things up and sell off as much as possible to big $ via privatization (right down to proposed changes in SS and Mediare) - and these things arenât necessarily coordinated - just working from the create so much moving chaos that it is hard to focus on and try to prevent any one.
But on the oil/climate-environment (big impediments) and even the preponderance of interest work with and on behalf of Russia - seem to be linked to oil. Here I think there is real coordination and strategy being worked very, very hard behind the scenes. Watch these three issues as interlocked and much more intentional than the other mass chaos and/or sell off.
Hey, at least we get our own very underboss â Subcommander Trump, Viceroy Plenipotentiary of the North American Division of the Russian Federation, aka East South East Siberia.
Yet, we already do pay for it. My guess is that it is AIR that will be the new marketable commodity. Want a whiff of non-polluted air? Just buy our tanksful for a steep price and all will be wellâŚ
And now that I think about it, donnie is actually less competent that President Skroob (pictured above, sniffing âperri-airâ, in case you guys canât read the label) from Spaceballs.
What?!? No hello? No howâs the family?
