The United States of America has fallen to the J6ers.

PRESENTED BY PINYON JAYS

The United States of America has fallen to the J6ers, and fossil fascism is on the march.

Samantha Montano decries Alligator Auschwitz: “This facility is not just a detention center, it is a concentration camp.” In “ICE is eating the soul of America,” Garrett Graff details the Trump occupation of the nation’s capital, which includes abducting fathers as they drop their children off at school and when they head to work:

“The Trump administration is approving a wave of ‘frightening’ pesticides,” Lisa Held writes, including four that qualify as forever chemicals. And the newly released MAHA “strategic” plan attacks vaccines but ignores pesticides and toxic chemicals. Guess why:

Jessica Kutz describes how Drexel epidemiologist Jane Clougherty learned the Trump EPA was killing her public-health research: “There was no discussion, there was no warning, simply an email that said, ‘You’re done. This project is no longer within the administration’s scope. Cease and desist activities as of today.’” Dr. Clougherty’s multi-year project was analyzing emergency room visits across New York State to understand the impacts of heat and air pollution on children’s health.

Similarly, the Trump regime is killing Biden’s rules protecting millions of acres of public lands, instead turning them over to miners, drillers, and loggers.

In response, Congressional Democrats are planning to use their filibuster leverage over the September 30 government funding deadline to do absolutely nothing to end dictator rule. Instead of making any demands about reasserting Congress’s Constitutional authority over appropriations, taxation, and war, the plan, promoted prominently by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), is to call for Obamacare tax credits to be extended through the 2026 midterms.

Connecticut, Rhode Island, and Ørsted are suing the Trump regime for halting the nearly completed Revolution offshore wind project.

The #SaveOurSigns project is asking Americans to document the signage of our national parks system before they are memory-holed on September 17th for thoughtcrimes.

During the Biden presidency, the FBI arrested Skyler Robert Philippi, a neo-Nazi who planned to blow up electrical substations with drones armed with pipe bombs. The extremist has now pled guilty; Trump has not yet pardoned him or made him FERC chair.

The reinsurance giant Swiss Re calculates that natural catastrophe insured losses are growing by 5 to 7 percent annually.
