Earth Day reminder that Trump’s EPA rolled back regulations governing clean air, water, wildlife, and toxic chemicals.
He’s pushed to open public lands to drilling and mining.
And he’s gutted clean energy programs while promoting dirty fossil fuels.
He’s a danger to our planet and our health.
Isn’t that the truth.
I'm having deja vu all over again! I recall seeing the same headlines in the late 1960s vis a vis LSD & other psychedelic drugs being tested to treat mental health conditions. I think that those studies were stopped! Not surprising it's coming up again as it's RFK Jr that's "pushing" it!!
The difference between Republican and Democrat lawmakers is when Democrats lie, cheat, steal, rape, drug, and commit other untoward behaviors we oust them. Republicans protect them, promote them, revere them.
We are not like them.

The DOJ is going after yet another political opponent of President Trump as Pam Bondi continues to dodge her subpoena. Plus, voters in Virginia have approved redrawn Congressional maps, giving Democrats a boost in the midterms. Scott MacFarlane reports from Capitol Hill…👇
His incompetence and yes, unwarranted arrogance on display for the whole world to see. He's his own worst enemy. Diplomacy is dead if you keep posting threats before and during negotiations. And not one of his minion is willing to stop him. 🙄
Are the women back there somewhere? Yes, I think I see them.
Donald Trump appears to have missed—or is delaying—his 2026 physical, with no schedule or results released.
At the same time, his behavior is raising concerns—even among some right-wing outlets.
The silence is deafening.

Congratulations, Virginia! Republicans are trying to tilt the midterm elections in their favor, but they haven’t done it yet. Thanks for showing us what it looks like to stand up for our democracy and fight back.
U.S.–Iran peace talks collapse as ceasefire nears expiration, JD Vance’s trip is suspended, and Trump signals imminent bombing, raising fears of that full blown war will break out yet again. Meanwhile, VA voters head to the polls on redistricting. Catch up on the top stories for April 21, 2026.

"Pro Life" Republicans
If you live in Virginia, tomorrow you have a huge opportunity to make it clear to the GOP that if they want to win, it won’t be by changing the rules and redrawing maps. At least, not without a fight. Vote YES on the redistricting vote, and push back!
