I firmly believe if Trump fails it will be because he followed conservative policy orthodoxy.
I could be dead wrong about this. It could be that the accumulation of of stories like Sessions will destroy his Trump’s credibility, and his favorable ratings will collapse.
Maybe. I doubt it.
So, while everyone chases the Russian rabbit:
The EPA looks to about to be slashed
A wide slew of Environmental Protection Agency programs could be under the knife to meet President Donald Trump’s budget proposal requirements, a source told CNN Wednesday night.
The source spelled out details of an Office of Management and Budget proposal that would cut the EPA’s budget by 24% and reduce its staffing by 20%.
The Clean Energy Plan: dead.
But who really cares, that was about the only real effort to combat global warming and it’s just the fate of the planet.
Nah, lets write 10 articles about weather Sessions perjured himself.
Oh, methane limits: repealed. Mileage requirements about to be undone.
But Sessions!!
Let’s see: oh this woman is going to be deported. She came to the United States, and ICE picked her up.
She wrote this rather heartbreaking passage from her cell, where this dangerous woman is being held.
I don’t understand why they don’t want me. I’m doing the best I can. I mean I can’t help that I was brought here but I don’t know anything else besides being here and I didn’t realize that until I was in a holding cell last night for 5 hours. I was brought here. I didn’t choose to be here. And when I was brought here, I had to learn a whole new country and leave behind the one that I did know. And I barely knew that one. I feel, I strongly feel that I belong here and I strongly feel that I should be given a chance to be here and do something good and work in this economy. There’s so much that I can bring to the table, so much, like I can even teach music, I’m an excellent trumpet player you can ask my mom about any of that. I’m great with math, I speak Spanish. You know, there’s a lot of stuff that I can do for this country that they’re not allowing me to do. I’ve even tried to join the military, and I can’t do that. But, I mean that’s not the point, the whole point is that I would do anything for this country.
The good news is the people don’t want to deport her. The latest CBS Poll shows just how much opposition there is to deporting immigrants. Most Republicans don’t want to deport her. Less than 25% of all Americans want people like her deported.
So a pretty easy political case. A sympathetic girl, strong public opposition. And the polling on the dreamers has always been stronger than the numbers I just cited.
Wait, Trump said wiretaps?
Wiretaps??
What were we talking about again?
Meanwhile all manner of regulations in other industries are being rolled back. Pharma and the big banks are just getting everything their heart desires.
The NIH – every heard of them? The do shit like basic cancer research. They are looking at a 10% cut. I think that is pretty unpopular.
Wait, Comey said what?
Hey, this is unfair I hear people saying. We can keep two thoughts in our heads at once you know!
On what evidence do you believe that, I wonder?
