Folks, this is a big deal.
The conservatives on the Court are trying to eviscerate not only clean air laws, but virtually every law Congress has passed to keep the American people safe from corporations... twitter.com
Where was this mighty concern in 2016?
Never crossed your blogpost did it.

(15,325 posts)Seeing a lot of chest beaters lately, stepping on the backs of greats who were flatly ignored before today's 'concerns', to get their media moment.

He was pretty much silent when the SC warnings were being carefully shielded from media back then.

The headline is correct.

I remember the shocked outrage when he suggested near the end that Sanders loyalists should support HRC if she won the nomination; they just didn't expect that "betrayal" from him. Did him little good with me either after his many months of genuinely betraying their trust by colluding in demonization and lies about her and the DemocraticParty.
