Trump Watch:

Massive marches across the country demanding to see Donald Trumps taxes…what does he say.  That the protesters were being paid.  It’s clear at this point that Trump’s taxes contain evidence of crimes, corruption, and ties to Russia.  Someone at the IRS leak that shit, its your duty as a good patriot.

Trump is already using his 2020 reelection bid to line his own pockets

In the face of cuts for the needy, Trump’s $3M trips are appalling.  We can’t have meals on wheels, but we can inflate the military budget by billions and Trump can spend hundreds of millions on enriching himself while golfing.  Long live the king I guess.

There is no such thing as clean coal, fracking is a disaster, and oil is the same old thing we have been fighting wars over for years.  All three spell doom for the future of humanity on this planet, but there is good news, we don’t need any fossil fuels.   Solar and wind are so cheap that you should really be out there installing it on your home right now.
