    A lot of effort to hide something that is widely accepted by the world shows how much they know it's true and counter productive to their regressive dirty energy plan.

    I'd like to alter Tool's song, Message to Harry Manback, to Message to Donald Trump. Most applicable line, "Fuck you. Die. Bastard."

    It is not about hiding anything but about setting the tone on who is in charge. A major part of fixing government and broken federal agencies is teaching employees to follow the rules. Trump intends to run this government like a business.
    It's pretty easy to see why he's filed bankruptcy so many times then. When you try to rationalize his authoritarian behavior without recognizing the hypocrisy you just sound ridiculous.
    1) Your country is on the road to bankruptcy. Having someone who has been through it is a feature not a bug.

    2) Instructing employees to follow orders is not authoritarian. It's called being a boss.
    Oh we'll definitely be bankrupt. I'm not arguing that, but he's going to ensure that and then be out of office. This isn't a personal debt, you don't get to just start over. He has no experience in national debt that won't have little loopholes to wiggle around like he's done for years.

    He's not just instructing employees to follow orders. He's telling them exactly what they can say whether it's a lie or not, so individuals are acting out because an entire government entity that is committed to environmental protection has been cut off until their new boss steps in. If everyone followed the bosses orders we would have never exposed scandals and corruption in government and big business. I'm more concerned about those willing to just follow suit like Sean Spicer And Conway keep doing. That's despicable.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    Jesus H, he just threatened to bring "the feds"?!

    No shit. I wonder what the chain of command is for something like that. Would Rahm or our piece of shit Governor Rauner have to make a request for the feds to step in?
    Yes. The governor has to make the request. Think back to Katrina. Bush couldn't send troops until Governor Blanco made the official request.

    Latest tweet folks
    Congratulations to @FoxNews for being number one in inauguration ratings. They were many times higher than FAKE NEWS @CNN - public is smart! If Chicago doesn't fix the horrible "carnage" going on, 228 shootings in 2017 with 42 killings (up 24% from 2016), I will send in the Feds! Big day planned on NATIONAL SECURITY tomorrow. Among many other things, we will build the wall!

    I see it now the wall will be paid with $$$$$$$ from the oil he will steal!!!!

    Which bring us to multiple scenarios of agencies and government employees not following our new dictators orders. What follows that, and what are the implications? The system runs on a certain level of faith and trust. Trump is effing with that and he has no clue whatsoever.

    When you google censorship of the media...

    Censorship is the suppression of free speech, public communication or other information which may be considered objectionable, harmful, sensitive, politically incorrect or inconvenient as determined by governments, media outlets, authorities or other groups or institutions.

    C'mon Kat...you've censored far more people then Trump ever has. Sure this is a forum with rules to be enforced but federal agencies (which include national parks) also have rules with respect to communications and federal employees are expected to follow those rules. If employees of these agencies disagree with the politics of their leaders then they can resign. One has a right to free speech but they don't have the right to operate outside the rules of this forum or outside of the rules of their employer.
    this
    Not this. It's BS trying to normalize trump's actions.
    Which translates to excusing him because he's white and republican.

    - Openly lies and the media can't destroy him on it.

    - EPA is not allowed to talk about climate change

    No. It doesn't lead to multiple scenerios. The Posse Comitatus Act and the Insurrection Act detail requirements and limitations for a federal government to intervene.

    Do you have a better idea to stop the violence? We can let these murder numbers climb another 25% this year and watch the city continue on a path to shit..Cops can't get it done, Rahm hasn't been able to, so what do we do? Get the Fed's in and help with the root cause..the poverty, the gangs, the drugs, etc.. I'm with "the donald" on this one. (Disclaimer: I didn't vote for the bafoon)..trademark josevolution.

    I support him because Americans elected him and he is our now our president. I voted for him because I thought he was a better option than Hillary. That doesn't mean I'm aligned with him on every issue though. This means I'm a stupid racist?

    No, but it does mean that stupidity and racism aren't deal breakers for you.

    Stupid and/or a racist. Or an enabler of it and a bunch of other shit.

    The "Hillary is as bad!" or "Hillary was a worse option!" remarks sure are a sign of stupidity.
