An interesting post in LBN reveals how Trumpworld is planning to bring more 'truthiness' to that boring sciencey stuff. [View all]

Of course Trmp is going to try to destroy EPA and is actively doing so, because GOPers don't believe anyone has a right to stop corps from making huge profits just because they're destroying the planet in the process. Whenever GOPers use the word "reform", they use it as a conveniently short synonym for "destroy or at least disable". They're trying to tighten the leash on those uppity research scientists by moving scientific research into the administrative offices -- research will not be controlled by scientists, but by policy toadies. The ORD will be broken up and dispersed, even geographically, with people being force to relocate or else. Many are likely to choose "else".

I wonder how many species will go extinct, and how many preventable cancers will claim lives, before the toxic legacy of Trmp is finally undone.
