Pain, agony even. Torture, if you will.

I’m old enough to remember American cities with large smog clouds hanging over them during the summer.

Looks like we’re actually stupid enough as a nation to bring that back.

Loser country.

can’t wait for 2030 when the street wear scene starts incorporating respirators, that’d be kinda fire

Every single person Trump instilled as the head of a department is extremely unqualified and has the single goal of dismantling their department.

Every single one.

Lost me at “climate change religion”.

Look here, GOP. Deregulation does not have a great track record, and is as challenging to implement as the regulations you’re trying to skirt!

Potential risks and challenges

• Increased Risk of Misconduct: Reduced regulatory oversight may create additional opportunities for financial misconduct, requiring enhanced internal controls.
• Compliance Complexity: Deregulation often leads to a more complex regulatory environment as institutions navigate evolving federal frameworks alongside increasingly divergent state obligations.
• Product Innovation Risks: Periods of regulatory transition may encourage the development of products or services with limited regulatory guidance, potentially increasing future compliance exposure.
• Uneven Oversight: Changes to regulatory structures, particularly regarding non-bank financial services providers, may create competitive imbalances and necessitate enhanced oversight of institutional partnerships.
• Reputational Risk: Compliance failures in any regulatory environment can significantly damage an institution’s reputation and erode customer trust.

The companies that turned our planet into a microplastic nightmare will surely regulate themselves bc market.

We need to organize, like yesterday, and fight to bring down these monsters.

Administrator of environmental protection agency announces agency no longer protecting environment, will now be simply referred to as the environmental agency.

Does this mean small trucks will make a comeback?

He says that instead of regulating the environment with bureaucrats he is going to have partnerships with polluting industry business owners who will do what is in the public’s best interest at lower cost. Instead of using science, they are going to rely on talk show hosts, social media, religious leaders and other more reliable pundits. Scientists are geeks and can’t be trusted.

Lovely. I’ve always wished for more lead in my air.

I wish I could do that in my job “I have decided to roll back my responsibilities… But not my pay of course”.

GOP Choke Mind Virus kicks into high gear!!!

EPA, I wonder what that stands for.
