I only wish more people understood how appallingly true this statement is.

Reminds me of something I saw on "Facebook Fails" or the like. First Poster: Relationship status changed from 'Engaged' to 'It's Complicated'. Reply: It's not complicated, you were caught fucking a bunch of guys. (Whether serially or in parallel was not included.)

/2 “When critics call the camps, with their unfortunate death rate and less-than-ideal conditions “racist,” aren’t they shutting down reasoned debate about immigration policy? We did a Zoom discussion with Chris Rufo and Peter Brimelow.”

The more the real Trump proves himself incapable of articulating an appealing vision, the more the Trump-friendly media will feel empowered to create a fictional Trump to stand in instead

idk this feels like a worthy time to remind some folks that Project 2025 calls for the demolition of NOAA and the National Hurricane Center

At one point in a recent conference with environmental agency heads across the US, I was at a table with leaders all from red states. We got to talking about how every film from the 1970s has a certain smoggy look that you never see any more, thanks to the Clean Air Act & individual state efforts

It doesn’t make daily news, the long plodding work of actually implementing environmental policy, since all the positive effects occur over stretches. But over time, and across the country in relatively non-partisan fashion, America’s air really improved tremendously – see this EPA chart

Screenshot of EPA website stating “Air Quality Trends Show Clean Air Progress”
Nationally, concentrations of air pollutants have dropped significantly since 1990:
• Carbon Monoxide (CO) 8-Hour, * 79%
• Lead (Pb) 3-Month Average, * 85% (from 2010)
• Nitrogen Dioxide (NOz) Annual, * 61%
• Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) 1-Hour, * 54%
• Ozone (03) 8-Hour, * 21%
• Particulate Matter 10 microns (PM10) 24-Hour, * 32%
• Particulate Matter 2.5 microns (PM2.5) Annual, * 37% (from 2000)
• Particulate Matter 2.5 microns (PM2.5) 24-Hour, * 33% (from 2000)
• Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) 1-Hour, * 91%
• Numerous air toxics have declined with percentages varying by pollutant
Despite increases in air concentrations of pollutants associated with fires, carbon monoxide and particle pollution, national average air quality concentrations remain below the current, national standards.
