Trump would be an “Extinction-Level Event” for the Planet, Turbocharging Climate Change. Vote Accordingly.
Ann Arbor (Informed Comment) – UC Berkeley scholars warn that “with plans to expand the production of fossil fuels, curtail environmental regulations, dismantle key climate monitoring agencies and even undermine the Endangered Species Act, there is no question that Project 2025 would be disastrous for the climate.” Project 2025, despite his dishonest denials, is Trump’s […]

Chicago (Special to Informed Comment; Feature) – Hopping around the rally stage like a drunken monkey, Elon Musk — the world’s most awkward man — demonstrated his subservience to the alpha ape Trump by repeatedly baring his bloated, bone-white belly.
