One thing about the Flint hearings to note

[The Blue Flower]

As horrible as this all is, I'm taking note of the fact that the R's, who are clearly trying to place the blame on the EPA, are tacitly admitting that the EPA should have the responsibility to make sure our water is clean. None of them is talking about weakening the EPA's authority. They're all admitting the exact opposite.

1. Their contradictions are on full display

as they seek a scapegoat.

[blm]

2. It's what they ALWAYS do. State Dept's fault that GOP cut funds for embassy security, too, right?

Complete ASSHATS.

[malaise]

3. Then blame Hillary

They are scumbags

[edhopper]

4. They will still cut funding

impose limitations or try to eliminate it.

they are only consistent in their hypocrisy.

5. and the state legislature also

is com;icit in tying the hands of the EPA within the state. Idaho is on the same page, they want to ban the agency from functioning in the state because thy busted the mines in the panhandle for poisoning the rivers. It's a long story but worth using as an example.

So this is what the state legislature of Michigan also caused by making it nearly impossible for the EPA to actually do its job... which makes me even more suspicious of the state government's possible conspiracy to destroy the predominantly black communities throughout the state. Look at Benton Harbor, Flint, Detroit and others we don't even hear about.
