In this time of reaching out across the aisle, I would like for each of you to remember that Trump did this:

Lifted the ban on the importing of elephant trophies and endangered species

Knowing that elephants are sentient animals with families who mourn their dead

Took back Bears Ears/other sacred native lands for fracking & oil

Lifted restrictions for clean water & allowed chemicals from mining, fracking, & oil to pollute the earth & waterways

Approved bear baiting/killing of hibernating bears, cubs & wolves so his own kids could hunt

Lifted bans on #chlorpyrifos which eat our human babies' brains. Google it.

Lifted restrictions on safety at chicken and pork plants. Took away protections from the farmers and gave them back to the chicken and pork sellers. Made it ok for us to eat tumors/cancer in our chicken

Took away tax incentives for alternative energy; including wind and solar. Disparaged alternative energy and said windmills cause cancer

Revoked CA's ability to have stricter emissions standards in autos; going against the recommendation of the auto manufacturing industry

Allowed commerical fishing/netting in a Maine ocean sanctuary established by Obama; harming vital ecosystems

Approved clear cutting in the Alaska Tongass

Attacked a teenage girl and international treasure (@GretaThunberg) on Twitter. Discounted global warming and science.

Uses eminent domain to take over private property in Texas, including a butterfly sanctuary to build his border wall

Puts a fucking Coal Lobbyist in charge of the EPA

Has overseen the largest dieout of migratory birds and insects in modern history - without acknowledgement, a study or a plan to address it. Doesn't even blink an eye

Supports using asbestos again.

*Asbestos is a known carcinogen.

**Russia is the largest importer of asbestos

Supported drilling for oil off the Atlantic coast & gas/oil drilling in Alaska

Concluded that a proposed gold/copper mine in Alaska wouldn't have serious environmental risks, but hidden docs showed it would harm endangered whales, salmon fishing & would fuck over the polar bears

Attempted to privatize oil rich land on Native American Reservations

The Governor of Oklahoma is currently working with the EPA to strip Tribes from having environmental authority ON THEIR OWN GODDAMN LAND!!!

These are some of the environmental disasters that I can remember and name off the top of my head

I'm sure there are thousands of other dastardly deeds enacted by Trump and Wheeler's EPA on behalf of Big Oil, Big Chemical, and Big Plastic

All of it is just so disgusting & gross.

That the majority of these billionaire companies support Trump financially/don't pay taxes should also infuriate you

That they've hidden reports and discounted science in pursuit of the almighty dollar is a defining moment of our time

All this while saying they are the party of pro life.

To all of the Evangelicals out there - fuck you.

And I'm going to repeat myself - Trump literally lifted the ban on a chemical that destroys babies' brains. And you fuckers voted for him by the millions.

I told myself I wasn't going to curse, but y'all MAGA/evangelical mother fuckers make it so damn hard.

I just can't with this latest coming together Kumbaya bullshit.

You have to face the fact that you are simply evil

You're killing the planet. The one you think God gave you to take care of. You are killing it.

It's bad enough that you think caging kids is okay, but Trump approved a chemical that literally eats children's brains.

If that isn't some fucking cult shit, I don't know what is

@JoeBiden @KamalaHarris, We're counting on you.

Make them pay and come up with viable solutions.

Repeal all of the damage Trump and the Republicans have done. Give incentives to go green

Here's a list of billionaire companies that don't pay taxes. And when you pay yours - remember them.
