The Department of Justice is establishing a new “Office of Environmental Justice.”
Attorney General Merrick Garland made the announcement at a press conference with EPA Administrator Michael Regan Thursday. Garland said that the new office, which will also be known by the initialism OEJ, would “oversee and help guide the Justice Department’s wide-ranging environmental justice efforts.”
The office was created as part of the Department’s “comprehensive environmental justice enforcement strategy,” in compliance with the Biden administration’s January 2021 executive order directing the Attorney General to develop such a strategy in conjunction with the EPA. Garland said that OEJ would initially be led by Acting Director Cynthia Ferguson, an attorney from the Environmental Enforcement Section of the DOJ’s Environment and Natural Resources Division.

From Answers in Genesis:
The same carbon that appears in coal and diamonds is the building block of your skin. As you eat food from plants, your body converts the plants’ carbon into body parts. The amazing versatility of carbon reminds us about God’s provision for our needs. One atom can be reused over and over again. If a part of your body breaks, then carbon is readily available for repairs. All you have to do is eat!
DemoNcRats obviously don't believe in science either
My head is exploding.
The last 2 years have been an absolute disaster for the republic, and now it’s really coming to fruition.
Between this garbage about The Environment(TM) being part of DOJ, and the INFURIATING creation of a “Disinformation” Board and Czar, we are in VERY dire straits.
BTW I view the SCOTUS abortion thing as a distraction from the Big Brother czar blow-up. We must not lose sight of this abomination.
“Environmental justice is code for:
Kill off refineries and chem plants for the sake of the people who bought into neighborhood either close to or next to those industrial plants.”
You got it. Believe it or not the dems have put some thought into these seemingly nonsensical agencies and will use them to promote their hard left agenda
I have seen this up close. A refinery was built in Norco, Louisiana in the early 1900’s. Great resource for the military in WW1. Neighborhoods sprouted up right up against the plant. Cheap housing. Now, community activists are up in arms about environmental justice because of the location of the housing.
Thanks for the ping.
This should make some “substantial” BIG BUCKS for the greedy shyster lawyers.
Yeah it’s kinda like the way a virus will take over a host cells and use those cells to replicate itself.
Beyond sick. These people are the cancer that will destroy the U.S. and the world. I never felt so oppressed.
Or cancer.
Lulz...
I keep saying. Heck, I’ve been given time outs for saying it...
This will not stop unless it is FORCEFULLY stopped. Voting and lawsuites won’t stop this.
Everyone is going to find out what happened with that whole Warsaw Ghetto thing because we are making the EXACT same mistakes.
We keep trying to appeal to reason and to follow the rules with people who have discovered they can eschew BOTH.
OK, these people are evil.
No way around that label.
This is NOT going to end well.
environmental justice
WTF is that?
5.56mm
Another way to control you [and me]. And lock us up when they desire. And another way for the Democrats to destroy the United States of America from within. But the people knew Lying Joe Biden was a son of a bitch before they replaced President Trump with him. So they are just getting more of what they wanted. Which is good.
Will they post fart sniffer dogs at every bus station in America as enforcement?
The DOJ is not the DOJ. Its a collective of Constitution Destroying Marxists.
Meritless Garland. Are we not so fortunate that he never was appointed to SCOTUS. We need to count our blessings.
The leftists plainly are planning for no elections in the near future.
Bingo! I believe you nailed it. Anything to cripple our domestic hydrocarbon industry, appoint liberal bureaucrats and grab more money for the federal coffers while spinning a word salad to the their voters.
I will go along with this if you add the TSA to the list
Yes, that’s why they are hoping for, but I believe they are
going to be fully outed for what the did in 2020.
This 2000 Mules movie is very damning.
