WASHINGTON — The Trump administration is finalizing major changes Monday to the way it enforces the landmark Endangered Species Act, a move it says will reduce regulatory burden but critics charge will drive more creatures to extinction.
The Endangered Species Act is credited with helping save the bald eagle, the California condor and scores of other animals and plants from extinction since President Richard Nixon signed it into law in 1973. At least 10 attorneys general joined conservation groups in protesting an early draft of the changes, saying they put more wildlife at greater risk of extinction.
The final rule broadly sticks to those changes, according to a person briefed on the changes who was not authorized to publicly speak about them."This effort to gut protections for endangered and threatened species has the same two features of most Trump administration actions: it's a gift to industry, and it's illegal. We'll see the Trump administration in court about it," Drew Caputo, a vice president of litigation for the conservation advocacy group Earthjustice, said.
So with these idiots just line up all the animals and shoot them and get it over with. I am sick to death of this bunch of fools in Washington following a Narcissist. I hope they all loose their jobs by not standing up for anything.
He’s NOT smart, he didn’t do it. Some one else came up with this plan. Donald will TRY to explain it. God help us🙏🏻
Y’all didn’t care when you stayed home in 2016!
This ‘on the one hand on the other’ bullshit reporting is killing America. He’s eviscerating a policy that has saved critical species including the f’ing bald eagle. FFS.
well Trump killed the Republican party so what if he kills a few hundred species while he is fiddling about in the white house
How I hope someone who becomes the next leader of government in our country will tackle the long, long list of bugger decisions from this admin. It will present a challenge to form an alliance of those willing and able to use their intellect for good. Go USA with a can-do spirit,
Anti-human ruling psychopaths use Trump to legalize deliberate pollution of our natural resources & killing animals to extinction for Agenda21. ecocide terraformation UW eugenics
NOW YOU SEE THEM NOW YOU DONT
As if I have to ask: Regulatory burden to whom? It would seem a fair trade-off to protect species who are endangered because of human greed and disregard for other living creatures and their habitats. We are stealing from future generations with the consequences of these actions.
I absolutely cannot wait until next Nov. Trump AND THE REST OF THE GOP MUST GO.
all of these old farts making laws that hurt the world and life on this planet will prolly be dead before their handiwork has any significant impact. im sure their kids, grandkids, descendents will applaud them.
Is Trump still holding a grudge, because of the bald eagle that attacked him in the Oval Office? 🤔
it'll be worth it if the trump bloodline becomes extinct
The Trump's a scum.
Reprehensible
It will, but this is from the administration that thinks global warming is a Chinese hoax. They either don't give a fuck or they're literally this stupid. Both are equally depressing to anyone with even a modicum of intelligence.
“Regulatory burden” for WHOM? Why is the Trump Administration so enthusiastic about murdering animals? How does this help American citizens? Citizens, by the way, who WANT ENDANGERED SPECIES PROTECTED! It seems the Trump Administration’s goal is to be more MONSTROUS every day!
No president has ever been so hell bent on destroying ever Environmental and human health legislation, constitutional law, and world peace agreements as this Trump mafia. He wants to destroy America.
Please stop this..
This is Not Right! Why does he have power to do this? Can he do this cuz it's total BullShit! He already fucked over the environment he shouldn't be able to do this!!! 😠😠😠😈 He is truly Evil!!!
46 is going to have a big mess to clean up.
The administration that continues to make America great
Well I believe Trump over liberal deception and lies
.Is there any way to stop them fro. doing this.
🥴😢😭🤬🌊🌊🌊
Wind turbines wreak havoc on endangered species. Every Democrat is promoting wind energy.
If they don’t care for the human species, what do you expect ?
