quote:

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) has called on President Joe Biden to declare a national emergency in order to tackle climate change and criticized former President Donald Trump's previous use of the measure.


quote:

"Now, Trump used this emergency for a stupid wall, which wasn't an emergency," Schumer said. "But if there ever was an emergency, climate is one. So I would suggest that they explore looking at climate as an emergency, which would give them more flexibility."


quote:

Declaring an emergency could allow the president to take more decisive action on his own but the move would likely be challenged in court. However, the Trump administration prevailed at the Supreme Court over its emergency declaration and redirection of funds.



As a Libertarian, I feel like I'm going to spend the next four years saying "I told you so". Trump = GWB II, or possibly worse. It's early.

This is an emergency that will last 500+ years.

It would complete the transformation of Republic to Empire.

There is so much incomprehensible stupidity in this statement. Our climate has been changing for 3.5 billion years, Chuck!

Texas used to be mostly covered by a shallow sea.

I'm 8 hours from the coast and I can find sharks' teeth and shell fossils nearby.

Millions of years before cows started farting.

The only positive I see here, selfishly, is that it could free up $$ to Louisiana for coastal restoration and possible infrastructure

Assuming it would be included...

You're missing the point. Trump and GWB paved the way for this bullshite to happen with the expansion of executive powers and the emergency declaration. All of us small gov't types tried to tell the "conservative Republicans" that this shite was a bad idea, but we were labelled liberals.

No doubt you'll be saying lots of things to show your supposed superiority over the rest of us.

We had caravans of thousands of people flooding in. The wall was good policy. It worked, it was popular with voters, and it was solidly endorsed by CBP. Dems supported border fences until Trump made it his central campaign issue. Now they are going to tear everything down just to undo everything Trump accomplished whether it makes sense or not.

Lol. CNN and Chuck freaking Schumer told him. That’s all the programming mindless idiots need.

That’s why they get completely crushed on here and they run away. They attempt to share their programming and are then blindsided by facts they didn’t even know.
