Peddle this BS somewhere else “In just three years, the Trump administration has diminished the role of science in federal policymaking while halting or disrupting research projects nationwide, marking a transformation of the federal government whose effects, experts say, could reverberate for years,” the New York Times reports.
You mean like we were for the first 200 years or so of our existence? Following the progressive/multicultural/globalist model for the last 30 or so years has resulted in the first ever period where we lost ground relative to other countries. Consider: Shanghai: LA:
so.you are saying we just need more Jesus and everything would be fine? (Shanghai does not believe in Jesus or have religion in theory government and they seem to be ok no?) By the way nice to cherry pick two pictures. Show the beautiful skyline of LA and the shacks of poor people in China.
Yes, science is the cult here Posts atheist secular progress under Chinese rule, tries to make a point for religion.
Shanghai: i didn’t know you were an environmentalist AAAinthebeltway. What’s your opinion on this? Trump loves clean water. We have the cleanest water he says.... March 11, 2019 - 12:26 PM EDT Trump proposes slashing EPA budget by 31 percent President Trump on Monday proposed significant budget cuts to the government agencies responsible for overseeing the nation's energy and environmental policies, including a 31 percent reduction in spending at the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The fiscal 2020 budget proposal to Congress marks the latest effort by the administration to slash funding for science and enforcement programs. The document, titled "A Budget for a Better America," requests $31.7 billion for the Department of Energy, an 11 percent decrease from current funding, while the Interior Department would see a 14 percent cut, to $12.5 billion. The biggest proposed cuts among the three major energy and environment agencies would take place at the EPA, where former energy lobbyist Andrew Wheeler recently took over as the top administrator after being confirmed by the Senate. The budget for the agency tasked with enforcing environmental regulations would plummet to $6.1 billion, a decrease of 31 percent, under the White House spending blueprint. "This commonsense budget proposal would support the agency as it continues to work with states, tribes and local governments to protect human health and the environment," Wheeler said in a statement Monday. "I am proud of the tremendous progress that EPA and its partners have made in cleaning our nation's air, water and land, and I am looking forward to continuing this progress through FY 2020." "Focusing on the core mission makes EPA a better steward of taxpayer dollars and promotes operational efficiencies that enhance the Agency's Performance," the White House added in its request to Congress. Overall, the administration proposes eliminating more than $650 million in programs and activities compared to current funding levels. The proposed reductions at EPA are in line with the steep cuts - about 25 percent - that the White House's Office of Management and Budget proposed for the agency for fiscal 2019, which began Oct. 1. The year before that, the administration proposed cuts that exceeded 30 percent. Lawmakers have declined to enact most of Trump's previous funding requests, and it's unlikely that drastic EPA cuts will be enacted by Congress this year, especially since Democrats are now in the majority in the House. Trump promised on the campaign trail to cut back on enforcement actions at places like the EPA that often hurt the bottom line of the fossil fuel industry and especially coal-fired plants. The administration's budget proposal for EPA highlights increased water infrastructure projects and efforts to remediate Superfund sites. The agency pointed to a "redundancy" in funding as one of its reasons for the proposed budget cuts. "A priority area for EPA is to create consistency and certainty for the regulated community and to remove unnecessary or redundant regulations," the agency wrote in its budget brief. "Removing unnecessary regulatory burdens allows the EPA to be a catalyst for economic growth while strengthening our focus on protecting human health and the environment." The White House budget request also seeks to slash other key science and renewable areas, including a repeal of the tax credit for electric vehicles. Other cuts to the Department of Energy include well-known clean energy research and development grant programs such as ARPA-E. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, which is responsible for monitoring weather systems and oceanic temperatures, would see its funding cut under Trump's proposed budget, with the recommended elimination of the Sea Grant, Coastal Zone Management Grants and Pacific Coastal Salmon Recovery Fund. https://www.google.com.au/amp/s/thehill.com/policy/energy-environment/433496-white-house-proposes-dramatic-cuts-to-energy-and-environment?amp Only 15% of the products in the Trump store are made in the US By Justin RohrlichDecember 4, 2018 There are 268 items for sale on the Trump Organization’s online store. Of those, 41 are made in the USA and listed in a separate section highlighting US goods. That means American products make up exactly 15.298507462686567% of the Trump Store’s available merchandise. During an April 2017 visit to the Snap-on-Tools headquarters in Kenosha, Wisconsin, president Donald Trump signed his so-called “Buy American and Hire American” executive order for US government agencies. “With this action we are sending a powerful signal to the world,” the president announced. “We are going to defend our workers, protect our jobs, and finally put America first.” <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">President Trump mingles with the crowd in Wisconsin before he furthers his "Buy American, Hire American" agenda at the Snap-On Headquarters. <a href="https://t.co/keqmLzsGho">pic.twitter.com/keqmLzsGho</a></p>— USA Association (@USAAssociation) <a href="">April 18, 2017</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> The 41 US-made offerings in Trump’s web shop are denoted by a small American flag icon. They include a Trump-branded football($185), a 21-ounce jar of lavender-and-sandalwood bath salts ($25), and the “Trump Double Trouble pullover” ($150), which will “quickly become your go-to item when an extra layer is required.” The other 227 products without the “Made in America” designation don’t list their countries of origin. Some are easy to trace, like the set of two “exquisite” Riedel red wine glasses ($48). Made in Europe, Riedel describes the machine-blown glassware as part of its “starter” Degustazione collection and can be found elsewhere online for $4.99 each. After Nabisco sent some factory jobs from the US to Mexico in 2016, Trump responded by saying he would no longer eat Oreos, a Nabisco product. His own products, according to a 2016 Washington Post investigation, are made in 12 foreign countries: China, Mexico, India, Turkey, Slovenia, Honduras, Germany, Bangladesh, Indonesia, the Netherlands, Vietnam, and South Korea. https://www.google.com.au/amp/s/qz....onald-trump-products-are-made-in-the-usa/amp/ Trump the hypocrite. Duping the mouth breathing simpletons. He values himself, power and money. Don’t kid yourself. Trump cheer leads the Dow making new highs. The right wingers here on this site love the new highs made under globalization. Heck, we are all traders. The US is a mature service sector economy. It can’t compete against the cheap wages in China, Asia and soon to be Africa. Pissing against the wind trying to reintroduce manufacturing. It just plays to the base. Automation and AI is moving on anyway.
LOL, it's terrible. But better than this: https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/...n-san-francisco-than-ever-all-time-high-vgtrn For the past decade, San Francisco's streets and sidewalks have been increasingly plagued by piles of human shit—and the poop problem is just getting worse. The city officially put together a so-called "poop patrol" task force back in 2018 to deal with the problem, and some Bay Area tech bro even whipped up an app called "SnapCrap" to help city residents file dookie reports to 311, but it looks like the shit crisis continues.
