@RepMikeCollins You think an American citizen should be deported for disagreeing with the President. That is outright fascism. What happened to the land of the free?

Government cannot set up policies and systems to deal with worsening disasters if it doesn't accept they are worsening, and why. From the inaugural address #Inauguration2025 #climatechange:
