Donald Trump is handing his Big Oil campaign donors even more opportunities to screw over Americans at the pump and poison our air.

Strong fuel economy standards save Californians money and protect our health, and we'll fight tooth and nail to defend them.
The Trump administration is proposing new fuel economy standards for vehicles that would roll back efficiency rules implemented under former President Biden.

1 TON has ~907K grams. ~1 gram of cocaine can be fatal.

Over 20 yrs, former Honduran Pres Juan Orlando Hernández brought over 500 TONS of cocaine to the U.S. He was sentenced to 45 years in prison.

Trump has pardoned & released him from prison.

Before being put in charge of the most powerful military in human history, Hegseth's big cause was getting war criminals pardoned! Trump pardoning serial killer eddie gallagher was basically Hegseth's doing
Thing is, we DID hear about it at his confirmation hearing.

Every single senator who voted to confirm Hegseth knew he held these views about the laws of war.

They voted to confirm him anyway.
Everyone should read this terrifying thread about Hegseth’s published views wrt war crimes. It’s pretty fucking radical …. We needed to hear about this in his confirmation hearing.

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.

The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.
