The AP article implied he was the only temporary and that the head of the EPA was being looked at for permanent replacement.

That implies somebody more independent would be put in place? I have a feeling that it’s just going to be someone worse still.

So would Bernie Sanders and AOC be considered “liberals” or is there a better term?

Now which horrendous replacement and even stronger loyalist will ultimately end up in her place?

It’s insane how easily Donald can just keep forcing his way further forward without any real resistance.

This is the first time I’ve seen the phrase blueMAGA. I can imagine what it means and I’m curious which (democratic) politicians most fit the bill, in yours and others opinions.

Well damn, I just watched Secondhand Lions with my children this weekend.

I hope I can live as long as him. What a great number of years.

Sure you will.

You could now.

But you won’t.

Talk talk talk blab blab blab.

There is absolutely no circumstance in which I would ever wish to meet the current president of the United States… except for this one…

To be directly told “Fuck you” by Donald is an incredible badge of honor.

And it was done twice with a bonus middle finger too?!

🥰

This is sick…

This article doesn’t explain how closing the power plants saves consumers money. It doesn’t explain how existing energy demands can be met in spite of the closures. It doesn’t explain why Trump wants them operational and his perceived benefits (even those unfounded and blatantly wrong). It doesn’t explain anything. This is a frustrating article.

I prefer PipePipePipe.

I tried to look up prices for tickets recently (for other artists) and it’s really hard to figure out which tickets are originals and which are resale tickets. It’s all so convoluted. And frankly, it doesn’t seem that we can ever afford to see anything… ever. Ugh.

I literally just copied the same exact passage intending to ask the same question here. I’m not understanding how this is feasible.

This is absolutely tragic, regardless of the answer. But… how is this even possible?

Despite the repeated setbacks, the seventh attempt succeeded. The evacuation covered a total of 64 km, including 37 km driven with a damaged wheel. The NRK reportedly sustained a hit from an anti-personnel mine on the way to the wounded soldier but kept moving.

On the return route, a Russian drone dropped explosives on the machine. Thanks to the armored capsule it was carrying, the soldier inside was unharmed.

Holy hell…

This is the way.

And this is honestly one of the biggest struggles I’ve always had with him. I genuinely want to like him, but I can’t forget the 26,000+ bombs dropped in seven countries in just 2016 alone. Effing hell.

How would this not hurt republicans in the long run…?
