Trump to sign executive order unraveling Obama's climate record
Chicago Tribune ^ | March 27, 2017 | Juliet Eilperin, Brady Dennis

Posted on 03/27/2017 9:51:06 PM PDT by Innovative

President Donald Trump will take the most significant step yet in obliterating his predecessor's environmental record Tuesday, instructing federal regulators to rewrite key rules curbing U.S. carbon emissions.

The sweeping executive order also seeks to lift a moratorium on federal coal leasing and remove the requirement that federal officials consider the impact of climate change when making decisions.

Thanks. I needed some good (short term) news about this Administration. I have faith that Trump will be good for this country, but like anyone else in a new job, some weeks will be better than others.

Why is it that America has to pay for the world’s development?
Why is it that America has to redistribute it’s successes to the UN’s turd world?

His “Record”

I guess that’s what the Democrat Party “news” media calls government overreach.

I’m waiting for the President to reverse Obama’s policy allowing wind farms to kill 10,000’s of eagles every year without paying the fines.

In the cloud of Russia Russia Russia and AHCA failure (good or bad), President Trump continues to MAGA somewhat under the radar.

I seem to remember that BJ Clinton had an Indonesian donor who had Clinton put the largest USA low sulfur coal parcel off market. Its was someware in Utah.

We could and should reverse that. Clintons were working against America’s interests.

“Why is it that America has to redistribute it’s successes to the UN’s turd world?”

I don’t object to helping folks in the Third World; I’ve put bank into doing definite things that are helping people in some pretty harsh circumstances.

What I object to — and I’d hope you’d agree — is being forced by my government into “helping” the Third world by methods I’d never elect to support with my own funds.

It’s not some degree of “redistribution” I object to; it’s INVOLUNTARY redistribution of my tax money in amounts and into modes of “aid” over which I have no say.

This is a picture from the article. Those are cooling towers and that is water vapor, i.e. clouds, not smoke.

Can we say FAKE NEWS?

He should have honored his repeated campaign commitment to rescind Obama’s executive orders and actions giving illegal alien’s amnesty. Nothing is more important, in my opinion, than putting a stop to alien invaders and deporting them. Instead, he lied, and still gives more amnesty every day.

Yes, BJ Clinton created a vast new “national monument” that locked up at least $1 trillion worth of coal (probably a lot more) forever. Chief beneficiary was/is the illegal campaign donors at the Lippo Group in Indonesia who control the other large deposit of similar coal:

There seems to be much dispute about whether a POTUS can revoke a NM declaration, though from what I read it is clear that a POTUS can “modify” existing NMs. So it may be that the best way forward to avert successful legal challenges may be not to undo the existence of a NM but to reduce or constrict its scope. Still sure to provoke undying libtard paroxysms of rage.....

The key coalfields locked up by the Clinton NM are only in around 3500 acres of land, I understand (practically a postage stamp size in the vastness that is Utah). So there may well be a way to single out that plot of land and access to it without revoking the entire NM (which might be harder to succeed legally).

Ofc, there is no doubt that Congress could pass a bill revoking any NM. There would still be the outpourings of legal and political rage from the left, but the surest way to secure such a change long term may be through legislation.

The executive orders that he is doing away with are helping to rebuild businesses and to forward growth. Allowing illegal invaders to keep coming in adds the low skilled work force for these big businesses that President Trump supports.

These illegal invaders will keep coming because the GOP and President Trump's business friend's need them to keep wages suppressed and to allow more businesses that do manufacturing in China to come back to the US. Businesses will not come back from China if the wages are not kept low and the only way to do that is with importing these illegal invaders.

You can bet your bottom dollar that the 40 million illegal invaders that are here will stay here. The "dreamers" will get amnesty and that will mean all of their immediate family (aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, brothers, sisters) will be allowed to enter the US adding another 10-12 million illegal invaders to the count for the GOP and President Trump's business partners.

The only illegal invaders that will be deported are the criminals (ones that have raped, killed, robbed). The FERAL Government does not deem crossing the border a criminal act even though we have laws saying it is.
