...of their policies.

They don't care what happens to their Branch Trumpidian cultists or the rest of us, for that matter.

Or the sheriff robbing banks on the weekend. When the regulated ignore
the laws and enforce the regulations you have, in effect, no laws at all

Does anybody remember life before the EPA. I remember when a 11 year old kid waded into a creek to retrieve a baseball and the creek was covered in toxic sludge. This was considered normal. When the Cleveland River was on fire. When the Mississippi corridor from New Orleans to Baton Rouge was considered Cancer Alley and a Chemical company's dream. All the power plants were coal fired with no restrictions, and a daily haze hung over my small town. The EPA has done a tremendous amount of good and this shit is scary.
Every day I pick up the newspaper the story gets worse with each new appointment.

Trump’s cabinet is starting to look like a bunch of drunken teenagers banging on drums of rocket fuel with Zippo lighters. They don’t know exactly what’s going to happen, but they’ll keep banging away until they get a reaction.
