The Center for Biological Diversity is Under Attack
This “investigation” doesn’t name a single unlawful act, because there are none. The real corruption they should be investigating is Twin Metals and its Chilean parent company, Antofagasta plc.

PLEASE, PLEASE, boycott Etsy.
I just went to their website, and they STILL are still carrying Alligator Alcatraz swag. I used to shop there. The emphasis on USED TO.
It would be like selling Dachau swag during WW2.
All about the buck, baby. Ain't it?

Americans’ electricity bills are predicted to rise by as much as 18% over the next decade, thanks to cuts to clean energy production in Trump’s big, ugly bill.
Red states are likely to see the biggest increases.
