The Vindicator of Youngstown reported that Trump will visit Youngstown-Warren Regional Airport in Trumbull County's Vienna to sign a bill that reversed an Obama Administration "Stream Protection Rule" intended to keep coal mines from dumping waste into streams.

Better get new shoes to replace the ones riddled with bullet holes.

Sad, because all of my family lives here and all of my family were affected by the same conservative economic policies and business practices Trump's kind think is going to save America.

It's just so sad! It's going to be a long 4 years. I barely made it through the Bush years.
