ALERT: Sheriff Joe Arpaio Announces Shock Reason Trump Pardoned Him | Top Stories Today - Duration: 3:19.
The controversy around Sheriff Joe Arpaio and his treatment of illegal immigrants during
his tenure never sizzled out.
Now, President Trump has pardoned him, and the world is outraged — but do they have
a right to feel that way?
The short answer to this questions seems to be a resounding "No."
The Sheriff has stated that the reason he was arrested was due to a politically motivated
witch hunt that was started by Former President Obama, and Eric Holder.
President Trump made it perfectly clear on Twitter why he was pardoning Arpaio.
Trump's message reads, "I am pleased to inform you that I have just granted a full
Pardon to 85 year old American patriot Sheriff Joe Arpaio.
He kept Arizona safe!"
In fact, Arpaio has promised to go public with the torments that he faced waiting for
the trial with Obama and Holder.
He has serious qualms about the way the investigation played out, and obviously, everything that
happened before his pardon.
According to Washington Examiner, Arpaio stated on Hannity, "This goes back to the former
president, and Eric Holder.
Sixty days after they took office, they launched this investigation and here it is.
When I was running for office, contempt of court, misdemeanor.
They did it politically.
The Sheriff went on to explain that he believes that if they can go after him, they can and
will go after anyone.
"I am going to go public and talk about the abuse of the political and justice system."
Arpaio's trouble started when U.S. District Judge, Susan Bolton, ruled that Arpaio was
found in criminal contempt because he failed to listen to another judge, who ordered the
stop of all traffic patrols that unfairly targeted illegal immigrants.
He was found in civil contempt back in May.
During an interview, Arpaio spoke about the things courts did wrong during his trial.
The list is lengthy, and certainly shows that something was not quite right with his case.
Arpaio is alleging to the fact that he was tried without a jury, and that they charged
him with the charge.
He explained that the list goes "on and on," but promised that, "the truth will
come out."
It would not be a surprise to learn that there is something more sinister going on here with
the former Obama administration.
We have to remember — Obama's administration has been labeled the most "lawless" administration
in our history.
He did it!
Trump pardoned Sheriff Joe!
Do you agree with this decision?
Would it be surprising to learn that the government that brought us Operation Fast and Furious
used political power to put someone in prison?
It isn't looking good, especially when you look at the previous administration's track
record, and hear what Arpaio has The National Center for Police Defense President,
James Fortis, was not pleased with Arpaio's conviction, either.
In fact, he calls it the day that he lost faith in our justice system.
Fortis provided an amazing point — one that needs to be considered before anyone gets
upset over this pardon by President Trump.
The president of the NCPD stated, "I sat through three days of testimony and it was
clear from the beginning that the DOJ had no evidence to make their case."
He concluded, "There is no way a jury would have determined that the Sheriff willfully
and intentionally violated the judge's order."

BREAKING Trump Makes MASSIVE Announcement About ARRESTING Hillary Clinton
During last year's presidential campaign, Donald Trump made a promise that he would
appoint a special prosecutor to put Hillary Clinton on trial for her countless crimes.
On Wednesday, the President recalled that promise and added that Clinton would be facing
a criminal trial at this very moment, were it not for FBI director James Comey.
Trump claimed that Comey saved Clinton from going to jail by choosing not to prosecute
her for mishandling classified documents during her time as Secretary of State.
"DON'T FORGET WHEN JIM COMEY CAME OUT, HE SAVED HILLARY CLINTON," TRUMP SAID.
"PEOPLE DON'T REALIZE THAT.
HE SAVED HER LIFE.
BECAUSE I CALL IT 'COMEY WON.' AND I JOKE ABOUT IT A LITTLE BIT.
WHEN HE WAS READING THOSE CHARGES, SHE WAS GUILTY OF EVERY CHARGE.
AND THEN HE SAID SHE WAS ESSENTIALLY OK."
The President was referring to a press conference Comey gave in July of last year in which he
listed a litany of Clinton's "reckless" improprieties, but then announced that he
wouldn't ask the Obama Justice Department to press charges.
Trump confirmed that Clinton would be "going to trial" if Comey hadn't been "very,
very good" to her, reports Truth Monitor.
However, he added that it's not too late to have the FBI Director step down.
"BUT YOU KNOW, I HAVE CONFIDENCE IN HIM," TRUMP SAID OF COMEY.
"WE'LL SEE WHAT HAPPENS.
IT'S GOING TO BE INTERESTING.
I WANT TO GIVE EVERYBODY A GOOD FAIR CHANCE.
DIRECTOR COMEY WAS VERY, VERY GOOD TO HILLARY CLINTON.
THAT I CAN TELL YOU.
IF HE WEREN'T, SHE WOULD BE GOING TO TRIAL."
When reminded about his promise to appoint a special prosecutor to investigate Clinton,
Trump said,
"I DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT THAT.
I WANT TO TALK ABOUT POSITIVE."

BEN IS BACK!
Ben Carson Just Leaked Everything About Trump and the Mueller Investigation
Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Secretary Ben Carson says a special counsel Robert Mueller
should be given a "chance" to conduct a fair investigation into possible ties between
Trump and Russia.
"I would give him the chance to see if he could do that because if there's nothing
there – he's not gonna find anything anyway," Carson told Fox News Radio.
"That has been the case now for nearly a year – there's nothing to find, that's
why they keep going down these empty rabbit holes.
That will continue to be the case because there's nothing there," Carson added.
Carson said that the investigation is "frustrating" and that it is hurting Trump's productivity.
"It's frustrating because it keeps us from getting to the things that need to be
done, and I'm not sure that that isn't the real reason for it," he said.
You heard it right here.
Ben Carson thinks that the Russia conspiracy that the mainstream media is pushing is total
bullcrap.
Share Ben Carson's words so that the world can see the truth.
This is doing nothing but slowing us down from making America great again.
The media is the enemy
of
the state.

Corporate Polluters, Scammers, and Criminals See Big Trump Benefits - Duration: 3:26.
An environment watchdog group has released a startling statistic.
Since Donald Trump took office, fines for corporate polluters have fallen by more than
60%.
Instead of holding corporations accountable when they poison our air and our water and
even our people, they appear to be getting a free pass from the current administration.
Of course, this isn't much of a surprise considering how connected our government is to industry.
Joining me now to talk about this is Farron Cousins, he's the executive editor for the
Trial Lawyer magazine.
Farron, incredible.
What's happened in the last six months.
You talk about the corporate payoff.
Oh absolutely, and that's exactly what corporations wanted.
What's happened in the last six, seven months is that they're getting everything they've
ever wanted, which was a 60%, they'd prefer 100% reduction in these fines when they do
go out there and they dump things into our water or spew things into the atmosphere,
they are not being held accountable.
Now, don't get me wrong.
Enforcement was very lax under Obama and Bush and Clinton before him, but even with that
lax enforcement, things have essentially at this point just absolutely fallen off a cliff
and we're not getting those fines and punishments, essentially, that we need to have in this
country.
Isn't part of the problem ... I mean, corporate America is making so much money right now.
Making more than they've ever made in the history of this planet.
Literally.
That is not a statistic that's overstated.
So, with all that money, aren't they able to go to the agencies and they're able to
get the folks that are working for the agencies to come to work with them?
They say, "Joe, when you get done with what you're doing, come talk to us.
We have about a $400,000 paycheck for you."
That goes on every day.
It's like the American public actually believes that the EPA or FDA or the SEC is out protecting
them.
What is your take on that?
It's absolutely true.
We've seen this in full swing for the last 17 years, really, where either the people
running these regulatory agencies came from industry or once they leave there, they go
right into industry.
They're not there to hold people accountable.
They're not there to do their jobs.
They're making job connections.
They're trying to meet people that they know they can send a resume to once they leave
office instead of somebody that they can send a fine or a subpoena to while they're serving
this country.
They're not doing what they're supposed to be doing; they're worried about their own
career and longevity at that point.
Yeah, they actually call these positions "career-holding places."
Career holding places.
Really quickly, what are the important fines that we're seeing differences with?
Well, the big thing is that we need these fines.
This isn't just about we want to take your money.
We use those fines to clean up the water, to clean up the air, to clean up the environment,
to provide medical monitoring for people when they get poisoned.
That's what these fines are about and if we do not pull those in, we do not clean up the
mess that corporations have caused.
Taxpayers have to foot the bill.
What the corporation does is they put all their garbage in a river, for example, and
they say, "We made a big profit by not having to do this right.
Now let's let the taxpayers have to pay for this clean up and our stockholders are gonna
make a lot more money."
Yeah, that's exactly the process and that goes on every day in this country, and under
Trump, it's happening more and more.

ALERT: Top Hillary Aide Admits Ties to Putin, Trump Vindicated | Top Stories Today - Duration: 3:59.
The Russian collusion narrative is taking a backseat as the mainstream media continues
to hound President Trump over the deadly protests in Charlottesville.
However, recent disclosures reveal that the Hillary Clinton campaign was closer than the
Trump campaign ever was to the Russian government.
The Podesta Group, a high-profile Washington D.C. lobbying firm, quietly disclosed their
ties to a pro-Russian Ukrainian non-profit that has been linked to the former Ukrainian
Prime Minister.
The lobbying firm belatedly disclosed the work they did for The European Center for
a Modern Ukraine between 2012 and 2014, according to The Washington Examiner.
The Podesta Group was founded in 1988 by brothers Tony and John Podesta.
John Podesta was also the Chief of Staff for former President Bill Clinton, a Counsellor
to former President Obama, and the chairman of the 2016 Hillary Clinton presidential campaign.
The Podesta Group suspiciously disclosed their connections to the pro-Russian non-profit
while the mainstream media had shifted their attention away from the Russian collusion
investigation.
Paul Manafort, who briefly served as the campaign manager for Donald Trump's 2016 election
campaign, has been identified as "the man at the centre of the Russia investigation"
by left-wing news agencies like The Telegraph.
In their article, The Telegraph argued the case against Paul Manafort.
"Manafort was found by a news agency investigation to have helped a pro-Russian Ukrainian political
party secretly move $2.2 million to two major Washington lobbying firms."
They wrote.
However, The Telegraph conveniently failed to mention that The Podesta Group was one
of the two major lobbying firms.
According to their recent disclosures, The Podesta Group received over $1 million between
2012 and 2014 to lobby on behalf of The European Center for a Modern Ukraine.
Another $720,000 was delivered to Mercury, a right-wing lobbying group, over the same
time period.
According to the Foreign Agents Registration Act, any lobbyist or public relations firm
whose work primarily benefits a foreign government is required to register as a foreign agent
to Congress.
In their recent filings, The Podesta Group admitted that their work for The European
Center for a Modern Ukraine benefited a foreign government.
Their work for the Center was managed by Paul Manafort.
Essentially, The Podesta Group failed to disclose their connection to a foreign government for
over 5 years.
The Podesta Group was regularly meeting with high profile American officials during this
period, include the Hillary Clinton State Department, and Joe Biden's office of the
Vice President.
Paul Manafort also failed to disclose his connection to the pro-Russian non-profit.
His failure to disclose his connection to the Russian government has been used as the
number one piece of evidence against the Trump administration.
However, the recent disclosure makes it clear that the Podesta's were also working on
behalf of the Russian government alongside Paul Manafort.
Both Paul Manafort and The Podesta Group violated the trust of the American people by failing
to disclose their relationship to a group with ties to a foreign government.
However, an obvious and stark difference quickly arises.
Paul Manafort was hired late, and only worked for the Trump campaign for five months.
He was forced to resign immediately after his connection to the Ukrainian government
was revealed.
The Podestas, on the other hand, have been close the Clintons for decades.
John Podesta was working for the Obama administration while his brother was lobbying on behalf of
a foreign government.
Unline Manafort, the Podestas have received no scrutiny for their connections to foreign
governments.
Ooops.
Looks like Podesta has a Russian issue, not Trump.
Is it time to investigate Podesta and Clinton, and leave Trump along?

Trump Wants To Make It OK For Nursing Homes To Abuse The Elderly - Duration: 3:59.
If you had any question about whether or not Donald Trump honestly was the most heartless
person to ever hold the office of the presidency, take a look at this.
During the Obama years, Obama, towards the end of his term, created a regulation that
said nursing homes can no longer use forced arbitration clauses when signing a contract
for a new person to come live in a nursing home.
What that means, when you sign that arbitration clause, is that if they do anything bad to
you, if they screw up, if they hurt you intentionally or otherwise, you cannot take them to court.
Obama said, "You know what, that's pretty unfair.
That's pretty screwed up.
We're going to do away with it."
Now, his regulation never actually went into effect, or technically has not gone into effect
yet, but Donald Trump has decided, at the urging of the US Chamber of Commerce, to get
rid of that regulation altogether.
To put it in its simplest terms, Donald Trump doesn't want your grandparents or your parents
or your great grandparents, whoever it is living in a nursing home, to be able to sue
that nursing home when they abuse or neglect or do something that gets them killed.
Now, you may not think that this is a big problem, but it is.
For every one case of a nursing home abuse that is reported, it's estimated that another
five go unreported.
One out of six nursing home residents in the United States, one out of six, has reported
some form of abuse.
Many have been forced to actually call 911 from their own personal cellphones while in
the nursing home, due to the treatment that they have received from the nursing home employee.
75% of cases reported have been of employees physically or emotionally or even financially
abusing nursing home residents.
There has been instances where nursing home caregivers have taken the financial information
from their patients and literally stolen money from them.
They've wired the money out of their retirement accounts into the employee's accounts.
These people, some of them have Alzheimer's they don't quite know until the family finds
out, after the person passes away, that grandma or grandpa's pension fund has been pilfered
for a decade by a greedy nursing home employee.
Nursing home abuse happens all the time.
One out of three nursing homes in the United States during a recent study was cited for
either physical abuse, financial abuse or dangerous conditions that could lead to personal
injury or death for nursing home residents.
That's about as serious as it gets, and Donald Trump doesn't want the elderly, who are the
most vulnerable of our population, to be able to take these people to court when they screw
them over.
Instead, he wants to send them in front of an arbitration panel.
Do you know what that means?
It means they're going to go in front of corporate-friendly arbitrators, have to pay an exorbitant amount
of money, and 80% of the time they lose.
This is great for corporations, and that's why the US Chamber of Commerce is supporting
it, but it is basically a death sentence for the elderly population of the United States.
Again, if you don't think Donald Trump is the most heartless person to ever hold the
office of the presidency, at least during our lifetimes, then I suggest you check out
this story because it is one of the truly most disgusting things that I have seen from
this administration in these short seven months.

Pitiful Paul Ryan Admits Trump Should Tweet Less - Duration: 3:51.
This past Monday evening, Paul Ryan gave a town hall meeting, one of the very few Republicans
to actually go into a town hall.
He had been pressured for many, many weeks to do a town hall while he was on his break,
so he decided, "Look.
I'm going to do a town hall.
I'm going to come be a savior of the Republican party."
Didn't actually turn out that way.
In fact, when asked a question about Donald Trump's tweeting habits, Paul Ryan very meekly,
very humbly said, "Well, yeah.
I mean, do I wish he would tweet less?
Yeah.
But I do understand that is his way of getting his unfiltered message out to the public and
it's very effective.
Do I like everything he tweets?
No."
Paul Ryan gave this wishy washy, flip flop of an answer that Donald Trump couldn't technically
get mad at because he didn't really take a stance one way or another.
The American public is tired of Donald Trump's constant insulting tweets: the tweets that
get picked up by the media, the tweets that get picked up by overseas media.
Hell, even Kim Jong-un is making fun of Donald Trump's Twitter habits, saying that he's tweeting
out nonsense and gibberish, and Paul Ryan won't even take a stand against that?
Interesting.
What's more interesting, when you dig through it and you start putting on those political
scientist hats and look at reasons, here is why I think Paul Ryan is being so wishy washy
on this.
Paul Ryan understands that Republicans in Washington D.C. are not willing to admit or
commit, I should say, to Donald Trump being the party's 2020 nominee.
If Donald Trump gets taken down by this Bob Mueller special prosecutor investigation,
and that would give us President Pence, I doubt Pence would withstand a 2020 election,
and therefore Republicans would be more apt to primary him.
Paul Ryan wants to be that guy.
Paul Ryan as the failed Vice Presidential candidate of Mitt Romney back in 2012, was
seen as more immature, somebody who wasn't a leader.
He was a tea party fringe extremist, which he still is, he's just trying to hide it better,
but he thinks he's polished himself up enough that he can speak to people.
He's been on Twitter the last few days talking about how bad Donald Trump's speech was in
Charlottesville.
Paul Ryan is gearing up for something bigger.
Trust me on this.
He won't take a stand against Trump because he doesn't want Trump to stop tweeting.
He's seen how many times Donald Trump has tweeted out things that could be very intriguing
to the special prosecutor.
He doesn't want that to stop.
He knows that to further his own political career he needs something to happen to Donald
Trump, namely impeachment.
If he, as the leader of the House of Representatives, were to be the one to go ahead and start those
impeachment hearings once the special prosecutor's investigation is done, he could suddenly emerge
as the hero of the United States who got rid of Donald Trump once and for all.
The savior of the Republican party.
He'd be a hero, and he'd be very difficult to beat in a 2020 election.
Paul Ryan understands that, and I guarantee you that is the long game that Paul Ryan is
playing here.
If the Democrats don't get their act together, 2020 could be the year that Paul Ryan becomes
our next president.

Trump Aides Admit They Can't Quit Because They Are Keeping Trump From Being Even Crazier - Duration: 2:45.
For months we've been reports saying that White House staffers are unhappy with their
jobs.
They don't like working for Donald Trump.
He's got a bit of a temper.
He throws things at the TV, and on, and on, and on.
So the big question that everybody's been asking is, "Well, then why the hell are you
still working for Donald Trump?"
Well, this past weekend we got an answer in the form of an article from AXIOS, where they
actually interviewed several White House staffers to find out exactly why these people continue
to stay working for Donald Trump when he's so unhinged.
The overwhelming response from these staffers as to why they're staying in the White House
is because they feel it is their duty, because according to them, they're actually helping
to kill some of the crazier ideas that Donald Trump has had as president.
Here are some of those ideas.
They said that they have helped prevent him from launching a trade war with China.
They've helped prevent, to some degree, mass deportations, and they've helped convince
him not to shut down the federal government in exchange for funding his border wall between
the US and Mexico.
These staffers actually see it as their duty to continuously talk Trump down from some
of his crazier proposals and crazier ideas that he clearly is having behind the scenes.
However, there is another factor that AXIOS found in several responses from members of
the White House staffing pool, and it was that they enjoy the power.
They like being associated with a guy like Donald Trump.
For people like that there is no hope.
There is absolutely no hope for those people who think that working for Donald Trump is
somehow making them powerful.
But for those who are actually trying to say, "You know what, Donald?
Maybe we shouldn't start a trade war with China.
Maybe the government needs to keep running, and maybe we should back off the border wall
a little bit," those people are actually doing the United States a massive service at this
point, because they're in the president's ear in a way that nobody else in this country
has the ability to be.
Kudos to those people.
To hell with the ones who think that they're gaining some kind of power.
Let's just hope that these staffers continue to talk Donald Trump back from some of his
more outlandish proposals.

Bernie Sanders Called Trump An "Embarrassment," Says Organized Labor Key To Saving America - Duration: 4:56.
On Monday of this week, Senator Bernie Sanders was in the state of Indiana with the Communications
Workers of America holding a rally where, one, he talked about how much of an embarrassment
Donald Trump has been for the United States, how much of an embarrassment he has been when
he claims that he went to Carrier and saved those jobs, or he saved those jobs at Ford,
or saved any other American jobs, only for them to later be shipped out of this country.
Donald Trump is an embarrassment.
We hear that from the foreign diplomats who have to spend time with him.
Bernie Sanders is 100% right when he called Donald Trump an absolute embarrassment for
the American public.
That's easy.
That's the easy part, folks.
Calling Donald Trump an embarrassment, pathological liar, and narcissist.
Even establishment Democrats can do that pretty well and get some applause.
It's what Bernie did after calling out Donald Trump that separates him from the rest of
the pack of typical politicians in the United States.
Bernie Sanders not only bashed Trump, he also laid out a path forward for the United States,
something that the Democratic Party refuses to do.
Bernie Sanders talked about the need for a grassroots movement centered around organized
labor.
A movement that supports working Americans, Black, White, Hispanic, male, female, doesn't
matter.
Essentially, a party built around working class Americans fighting for workers' right,
fighting for equal pay, fighting for more diversity, fighting for stronger worker protections,
mandated sick leave, mandated vacation time.
Something the United States doesn't have that our counterparts in Europe do have.
Trying to make things better for the people who actually drive this economy.
That's what Bernie Sanders talked about in that speech in Indiana this week.
That's not something we hear coming out of people who are registered or elected as Democrats.
They're not talking about that.
Yeah, they're having a lot of fun making fun of Trump.
They're doing a great job with that, turning people against him.
It didn't work in the 2016 campaign, and it's not going to be a foolproof method to take
back the House of Representatives in 2018.
You have to outline a path forward, and right now it appears that Bernie Sanders is the
only person who actually understands this.
We still have the establishment type Democrats, the pundits, the think tank folk, the people
who work at some of these more establishment type websites, who are out there every day
still bitching and moaning about the fact that Hillary Clinton didn't win the electoral
vote.
They're out there trashing Bernie Sanders and making fun of the fact that Democrats
are thinking about talking to rust belt White voters.
"Huh, yeah, good luck with that," they say.
I'm not saying that the Democratic Party needs to start pandering to White people, but you
need to stop looking at it as pandering to White people.
Bernie Sanders's crowd was not just a bunch of White rust belt voters.
It was a very diverse crowd, men, women, elderly, young, White, Black, Hispanic, all of them.
He doesn't see them necessarily as laid out by color.
He's looking at it as workers.
Workers who've been screwed over by the companies that they have dedicated their lives to.
It happens to millions of people all around this country, and it happens regardless of
race, age, gender, religion, whatever.
It's the establishment Democrats who keep pushing these horrible policies on the party.
Until they start emulating what Bernie Sanders is doing, the things he's doing that have
made him the most popular politician in the United States, until they do that, they can
look forward to countless election cycles of losing, and losing, and losing, because
they think the winning strategy is to just make fun of Donald Trump and the people will
just come pouring into the party.
That's not how it works.
They've proven that it's a failed policy, yet they still refuse to give it up.

Trump Sides With Anti-Science Goons, Disbands Federal Climate Change Panel - Duration: 4:32.
On Sunday, the charter for the National Climate Assessment's 15 panel advisory board expired.
It has expired in the past, and it basically expires every four years.
And presidents always re-authorize it.
Until now.
Donald Trump decided that he will not be re-authorizing this 15 member advisory panel for the National
Climate Assessment, something that's been going on since the year 1990, when George
H.W. Bush was president.
It survived half of H.W.'s term, Clinton's term, W's eight years, and Obama's eight years,
and barely lasted eight months under Donald Trump.
So Donald Trump has decided that he is going to get rid of this group and instead side
with anti-science, climate change denying Republicans and business leaders, because
he thinks that's the best route for this country.
Well, let me explain something.
This advisory panel, for the National Climate Assessment ... do you know what their job
is?
Their job is to assess the climate data and then meet with politicians and business leaders
to let them know how they're supposed to respond to this or offer suggestions about how they
should respond.
Do you know what happens when Congress doesn't get that information?
They can't make an informed decision.
Do you know what happens when businesses can't make those informed decisions?
They lose a lot of money.
Because you know what?
We've covered climate change from every possible angle.
So now, let's talk about it from the business angle.
For many, many years now, businesses, especially, obviously, the insurance industry, have been
taking climate change into account when insuring new properties and when building new headquarters.
They understand that climate change is very real.
It is a threat, and it matters to them.
The big banks are the same way.
As evil as those institutions have shown to be, they also understand that climate change
is real, and they know it's going to have a significant impact on their bottom line.
They're not financing some projects because they feel they're too close to the sea, and
in a couple years, they're going to be underwater, quite literally, on the loan and on their
property.
Business leaders understand ... well, excuse me, those that aren't in the fossil fuel industry.
Business leaders understand that climate change is real.
They understand that it is a threat to their profits.
If only they understood that it was a threat to the American public and the public all
around the globe, as well.
But at least they understand that it's real, right?
Trump won't even admit that.
Trump won't go as far as to say, "You know what?
I may not agree with them.
We're going to something else instead of this advisory panel, but we're going to take action
on climate change."
But he won't do it.
A man who owns countless properties along the water that will be underwater in probably
about 50 years, maybe, doesn't care.
Obviously, you know, considering his age, considering the timeline, he's probably not
going to be around by then.
But his children will be, and their children will be.
And they're going to have to deal with this.
I would love it if one of Donald Trump's grandchildren, or maybe Barron, walked up to him and said,
"Dad, why don't you believe in climate change?
Why aren't you doing anything to protect my future?
I don't care about money.
I care about being able to live and survive and drink clean water and breathe clean air."
When Donald Trump gets that question from either Barron or any of his grandkids, what
is he going to say?
"Sorry, kids.
Maybe you should try drinking all this money I've made for you.
Maybe you should breathe in money.
Maybe that'll help."
He's not going to have a real answer, folks, because he doesn't care.
And if he doesn't care about his own family, there's no way in hell we can convince him
to care about hundreds of millions of Americans or billions of people around the globe who
are going to be devastated, financially and physically, by his backwards approach to climate
policy.
