The Trump administration is moving forward on gutting a longstanding federal protection for roughly 1,000 species of birds in the United States.

FILE - This June 5, 2009, file photo shows a Redtail hawk feeding a snake to one of her young ones nested at the Rocky Mountain Wildlife Refuge in Commerce City, Colo. The Trump administration moved forward Friday, Nov. 27, 2020, on gutting a longstanding federal protection for the nation's birds, over objections from former federal officials and many scientists that billions more birds will likely perish as a result.

The wildlife service acknowledged in its findings that the rollback would have a “negative” effect on the many bird species covered by the 1918 Migratory Bird Treaty Act, which range from hawks and eagles to seabirds, storks, songbirds and sparrows.

The administration has continued to push the migratory bird regulation even after a federal judge in New York in August rejected the administration’s legal rationale.

Please stop this. He actually WANTS innocent wildlife to die.

What is he doing?

He is literally the worst human ever conceived. Not up for debate.

The birds didn't vote for him so he's taking revenge.

Stir the shit pot AP

They migrate?

he is an evil MF

trump isn't satisfied with just killing PEOPLE, he's going after EVERY fucking thing!

Surprising news. I always thought Trump was FOR the birds.

I never used to believe in Satan. 😡😡😡

I’ve used so many adjectives to describe Trump: stupid, racist, greedy, immoral, liar, coward, vindictive, jealous, narcissistic, etc. But, maybe this one crowns them all: vicious. viciousTrump

How a protection order for baby’s in the womb of humans ,,,,,

S_ODaniel BOO!

LisaKeel9 Let’s kill all the birds too!!

What does trump admin have against birds? We already know they are against blacks, Muslims, Mexicans, middle age Americans, low income Americans. But birds?

Trump will somehow profit from this.

No worries, space force will find a planet B 😞

sar_oso May they all go to hell and face the devil.

May every member of that administration burn in their hell forever.

What kind of man does this? Is the Antichrist here?

Wind generators are running out of birds to kill

These people are just evil

SSchmid51603795 The GOP is far from pro-life for adults, post-birth children, and wildlife. They just want to kill them all for a bit o’ gold to spend on booze and women.

Horrible

What a reckless soulless man. America and the world will forever regret letting this guy become president.

hoovesandpawse I’m old enough to remember when trump was so concerned about wind turbines killing lots of birds GOPHypocrisy

lisasorg

I hate republicans.

so I guess we never really were worried about windmills “killing ALL THOSE BIRDS” were we.

He's gutted just about everything else.

GET FUCKED 🤬🤬🤬

It won't matter come January

I guess he care more about birds than Human in the country. By trying to shut down Healthcare (Obamacare), let people suffer with pain and die. what is he try prove here?

robertsg62 He’s a pompous horses ass. realDonaldTrump

God he is disgusting!!

Proving he really is stupid!

Look, I’m confident I’ll have plenty to criticize about the Biden administration, but it will be an unspeakable relief when every day doesn’t bring with it some new pointless destructive evil.

the_real_tsnutz He's such a pr*ck.

robertsg62 He claims windmills kill birds, and I guess that’s something he wants to save for himself?

It got to be for trolling purposes. I mean...they (at least one of the children) are into hunting and taking and stuff.

I fucking hate him😤

Fake idiot doesn’t even know how the ecosystem works ,leave the animals alone they protection from people

one of those birds obviously shit on his head while on the golf course.

Yeah he would he was so concerned about the wind turbines killing birds well i guess we know he was just spinning his lies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The anti-Christ, Trump, will take pleasure in destroying anything he can

ishte_wa_toto Hopefully, President Biden can change it.

bill_slawski I always wanted to shoot a bald eagle. I heard it tastes like chicken. 😜

This is appalling! Why is this necessary?

In addition to all those dying from the “windmills”, we won’t have any birds left... (Sarcasm)

Scorch the earth on his way out the door. But you all want to bring him back in 2024.

The destruction of our climate and environment by this administration is disgraceful. It will forever be the legacy of Trump.😢

Biden well just put them back in all of Trump executive order can be undone easy.

Bullshit

The fuck you mean realDonaldTrump

If he keeps that up Corn may want to return his pardon.

OMG horrific 💔

This guy really hates science 😂

Bald Eagles are going to go through some things.

He doesn't care what his actions murder. Bear and wolf dens are viable targets now this. He's a mass murdering nazi on a murder spree using herd immunity and conservation laws. This is a serial sexual predator murderer

I wonder how many of the anti-Trump commenters in this thread use insecticides or Round Up. They don’t care about birds. They just have TDS.

Why are Trump and GOP hellbent on killing everything? What is wrong with them? DiaperDon GOPComplicitTraitors GOPCorruptionOverCountry

Another item on JoeBiden list to repeal when he is POTUS

LisaKeel9 Hope a judge blocks this.

Pure spite and vindictiveness!

Birds are a hoax!

Why in the world would he do this? Is someone paying him? Someone who wants to hunt or capture birds? Endangered birds? Wtf?

Little by little, the Republican party is destroying the earth and poisoning the very habitat that we all live in.

Just WHY

Well, of course he is! Birds don’t vote, have nothing to offer him, they are a resource only to be used😷

Scorched earth I have been around many decades and I know the scales will balance out. Biden/Harris have a hell of a hill to climb to get over the trash that this current admin. Is leaving. I can only hold on to HOPE & contribute to aid

Wait I thought that thing didn’t like wind power because it killed birds accidentally. Huh?!

Sick MF

Can this be reversed?

Why should the birds get any more protection than people, including 270,000 dead people.

Are these the birds who were not killed by the windmills?

Trump and his minions are bound and determined to destroy EVERYTHING!

Need the Biden team to tell them to not waste their time because they'll put it all back.

27/11/2020 | VIGÍLIA DE AVIVAMENTO | SÉRIE O ARREBATAMENTO DA IGREJA MegaWordVigil

As a life-long birder, this news is devastating. Is this something that the Biden admin can undo once they are in office?

Just one more thing JoeBiden’s team will have to keep track of and prepare an ExecutiveOrder to be implemented on day one. LameDuckTrump BurningDownTheHouse

How about saving the unborn humans?!?!

May President Biden therefore implement extensive protections. realDonaldTrump

Of course they are. Totally on brand.

WHY? Anybody? They are too noisy?

'When ruining everything for people alone just isn't enough...' 🤡 show.

Di they know that Audubon, born in Les Cayes, Haiti lived in Louisiana and his foundation will dissent. We already lost so many species.

This because people laughed at his desk

And it will be overturned January 20,2021

Trump killing a ton of birds shouldn't be news because birds aren't real.

If Trump wants to kill birds, why not just support the wind power industry?

Killing season expands beyond birds ahead of Trump's January exit: Is a rush by the US government to execute prisoners (8 since July, 5 more are on tap) before Biden assumes presidency; US death toll from Covid since February meanwhile has surpassed 263,000

According to the article you still WILL get find if you DID intentionally kill a bird. It removes the fine for accidents. We can’t speak bird 🤷🏻‍♀️

President elect Biden will fix this

Man is a freaking curse. He destroys everything he touches/knows/ comes in contact with.

So on-brand for DiaperDonald

This guy is worse than a windmill. 🤬

Only a true sociopath would do this.

Not cool

TRUMP FOLLOW THE LAW!! YOU ARE NOT GOD OR ABOVE THE LAW! THIS IS WHY WE THE PEOPLE NEED TO BAN THE REPUBLICANS FROM RUNNING THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION! THEY ARE TO INCOMPETENT. PUT TRUMP IN PRISON AND SEEK HIM SOME PSYCHOLOGICAL HELP!!!

Okay so what's the harm? Quantify it as being significant. When did the AP turn into a progressive rag?

😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡

😡😡😡😡😡

For what possible fucking reason?

And one hour into Biden Presidency they will be reestablished.

Trump wants to kill everything he can not control !!!

KAMALA HUNT THE SNECKE BUT EATING BY BIDEN

That many birds died due to industry with the regulations, so...

realDonaldTrump What do you bet President Biden will reverse you taking away protection of birds.

Cool. Checked my calendar. That'll last about seven weeks.

So the article says that this move could hamstring the incoming administration from being able to regulate industry. But why would that be? Couldn’t they just go back to enforcing the a Treaty and/or creat new regulations if needed?

We can reverse this before irreparable damage

Why though?

He's paying his black funds donors with every single decision he makes. Simple pay for play. Its going to all be brought into the light. I can not wait for the Senators snagged in his web to stand in courts. Pompeo and Barr are going to be the whip cream and cherry on top.

ETTD....

But why? What could the benefit possibly be?

GraceSimms

What are his advisers in environment and ecosystem doing.

Trump is full of Revenge. This needs to be reversed immediately.

What a fuck stick

Isn’t he the guy who complained that wind turbines killed too many birds? Hypocrisy is Trump’s game plan.

Kind of like the Obama era EPA giving California's solar/wind industries exemptions that kill thousands of birds per year?

He is set to destroy as much as possible before being evicted

Just one more thing for Biden to undue

That’s sad

I wonder what the actual story is behind this fake news headline

1/20/2021 just can’t get here soon enough.

PETA...sick him

Trump kills more birds than windmills do!!

Sure hope you tweet and question every Biden thing!!!!!!

FakeNews

Laughable his claims of being pro environment... But I guess that just sums up the Trump presidency... Laughable.

DJT =idiot

When you care about the life of a bird over the life of an unborn human...you suck!

At the rate Trump is attacking the environmental & wildlife protections, the only person who can stop him with 54 days to go might be this guy

Next on his agenda: kicking puppies and kittens 🤬

Of course they are.

Most likely an attempt to stop wind power.

💔😥💔 just why?

If we can back the assassination of an Iranian scientist, what's a bird?

Salt the earth, burn the fields. Trump policy

It is doesn't directly affect the life of Trump, he doesn't care

Now he hates birds too?

Burn it all. Consume. Profit. Destroy. Leave nothing for the future. Fucking barbarians and nihilists.

why

wtf

REPORT: Biden’s Thanksgiving Day Address gets just 1000 views online, a record low. Observers say a candidate with “80,000,000” votes would get many more online viewers. Numbers don’t lie, or add up!

Finally! Turns out birds fly

Best president. He wants to kill all the birds.... wtf who voted him in again....?
