EPA to be cut in half....according to Trump. It’s a start.

A good start to phase them out.

It occurs to me that places like the EPA have become havens for holders of the most extreme views. It’s little wonder that they’re going into meltdown mode over the idea that their positions aren’t there for their own personal aggrandizement.

Still not tired of winning.

Maybe Right Side Broadcasting can set up a camera or two at EPA locations to catch the RIfees walking out of the buildings in tears. Ask for special donations to pay for it.

EPA is one of the most rancid corners of the Washington swamp.
It's good that Trump is tackling that early.

Squashing family farms over puddles and ponds on private land. That is an agency out of control.

Well, it’s a half measure.

Much to my surprise the EPA did a good job cleaning up the air and water. Their job finished, they went about creating fictitious problems to keep themselves viable. The agency should have been given a medal at a grand closing ceremony and sent packing in 1990. No need for an entire agency to just monitor the air and water.

Conducting a scientific experiment to prove a pre-desired outcome is alchemy: political science.

...the EPA should not be funding scientific research...
Good, because the "research" somehow always supported the foregone conclusion the EPA paid to hear.
An American government that ignores science to pursue ideological agendas endangers the world.
That is actually true, 0bama did that a lot. Of course the sentence has different connotations depending which side you're on.
Another thing Trump needs to put a stop to, is the EPA encouraging activist groups to "sue" the EPA to enact regulations, suits that EPA was all too happy to "lose" and it cost taxpayers millions.

The Bulletin of Atomic Scientists have jumped the shark. Nukes are not as bad as CO2? GMAFB.

EPA the worst polluter on the planet in more ways than one.

It’s great the EPA will be gutted and its budget drastically reduced and not allowed to hire outside colleges or companies to do research. Such research should be done by the private sector and proven to be unbiased. The damage done by the EPA is crazy and must not continue.

I hope the anti-scientist scientists and other liars in the agency are fired. They has degraded peoples' trust in the scientific method because they have infused it with their loony LIB ideas and agendas. Pox on them and their futures. Lunatics. Reality-deniers. Losers.

I have always said that climate scientists all agree on GW because they are all paid to agree through the generous grant process. If you paid them all to provide studies ,saying it was all a hoax, then 90% would all agree within a fiscal year.

Information is better left to scientists, because outcomes can't be predicted. Bureaucrats just want ammo to ram their positions through.
