Trump Admin Madness

Nickyjo · Jul 31, 2025

Two items in today’s paper: the EPA has decided that greenhouse gases are not harmful to humans, and a story about Medicaid cuts on the 60th anniversary of the program. Can someone explain to me 1- how inhaling smog might be healthy, — Holy Emphysema Batman! — and what scientific evidence Trump and company have found that caused the EPA to “undo the scientific finding,” to quote the paper? (For some reason my weird mind went to the ending of the old film “On the Beach,” when the Fred Astaire character, faced with the world ending, drove into a garage, closed the door and inhaled exhaust fumes from his auto, obviously unaware that exhaust fumes are harmless.)
2- how uninsured poor people crowding into emergency rooms with the sniffles is better for our country than having them visit a doctor?; 3- why Medicare and the VA aren’t cut as well? Of course the answer is obvious to some conservatives: people are evil, that’s why they’re poor.

Finally, an item about Trump imposing 50% tariffs on Brazil because its government prosecuted a former prez leader for not accepting the results of an election and causing an attempted coup. What’s next, imposing sanctions on Iraq for prosecuting Saddam? Punishing Israel for putting Eichmann on trial?

We love the uneducated.

Books are bad.
Science is bad.
The EPA is bad.
Vaccines are bad.
Higher education is liberal indoctrination; i.e., bad.
DEI is bad
Masks are bad. (Except when worn by federal agents.)
Big government is bad unless it's Space Force or tripling the size of ICE.
Obamacare is bad.
Medicaid is bad.
Food stamps are bad.
Social Security is bad.
Clean air is bad.
Fluoride is bad.
Canada is bad.
Brazil is bad.
Afghanistan, Burma (Myanmar), Chad, Republic of the Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Haiti, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, and Yemen, all bad.

Finally, finally, Stephen Colbert shows the clip of EPA officials talking about the “Orwellian” anti-science beliefs in things like climate change as they share a screen with various flashing temperature listings of places experiencing 100 degrees or so, including 126 degrees in Missouri.

Irony is ironic. You never disappoint.

I stopped reading here because your paper is peddling propaganda. While the EPA has proposed reversing the endangerment finding, no final decision has been made.

You actually take time to read shit from the Trump administration?

It's not even good fiction!

I have some very old Mad Magazines that will be a much better source of reliable information. In fact early Daffy Duck is a real good place to start.

That makes no sense.

It isn't. El Jefe doesn't care about pesky things like "facts" or "scientific evidence."

It isn't. They just hate poor people.

Give 'em time.

Yep, that is 100% nuts.

The problem is that Congressional Republicans are siding with, or are scared of, the wanna-be dictator.

When you have a madman at the top, madness follows.
