3. Tuesday as they are gearing up stories and questions for Charlie Brown about Monday's Presidential activities Charlie Brown throws out the POTUS believes there was Voter Fraud. This is a hot button topic for the Libtards in the press. Realistically there is always some voter fraud so it's easily proven. But it totally knocks the press off their game as the react to the fraud question. Meanwhile, it's Drill baby Drill.

I see environmental protection of the commons to be one of government's main functions. Protect the borders, protect our little piece of the planet; enforce contracts....
You think I'm pro big government, but I am not. I just think when it comes to protecting the environment, we should be extra careful. We can already see the effects of having so much prescription meds in the fresh water. We know that the harm can happen. We know how/why/where it happens.
But, it inconveniences peeps to have to do things correctly, so unless you force them to, they won't. Business is about quicker, cheaper, faster..... being cautious of the planet enhances none of those goals.

I don't really know. I mean we could ban all of the unhealthy things from China- like those tainted toothpaste, toys, and pet food scandals that happen almost ten years ago?Zlaxer wrote:Kath wrote: You think I'm pro big government, but I am not.

The part I struggle with, is, what happens if China never changes it ways? Justifiable war? As in, what happens if it becomes the case that another country''s actions start having serious health effects on our population.

Indeed, the EPA’s main handle on Twitter hasn’t posted anything since Jan. 20, the day Trump took office. The source added that Trump’s freeze on contracts and grants is far more excessive than his administration is letting on.
“This is really in flux, and we’ve been getting new clarifications on it constantly as everyone in admin scrambles to figure out what’s going on,” they said.
And while Trump’s staff has proffered that it’s not irregular for a new administration to take such steps, it’s having the effect of clamping down on completely mundane tasks, our source said. Like buying new pens or pencils:
https://www.theguardian.com/books/2017/ ... CMP=twt_guComments made by Donald Trump’s adviser have been compared to the classic dystopian novel, pushing it to become the sixth best-selling book on Amazon
Sales of George Orwell’s dystopian drama 1984 have soared after Kellyanne Conway, adviser to the reality-TV-star-turned-president, Donald Trump, used the phrase “alternative facts” in an interview. As of Tuesday, the book was the sixth best-selling book on Amazon.
Comparisons were made with the term “newspeak” used in the 1949 novel, which was used to signal a fictional language that aims at eliminating personal thought and also “doublethink”. In the book Orwell writes that it “means the power of holding two contradictory beliefs in one’s mind simultaneously, and accepting both of them”.
