  1. What else would you expect a criminally corrupt Trump to do. All it would take to get approval would be to offer Trump some money and he would then be happy to destroy a pristine eco system for personal gain.

    1. @Tom Andries Actually, pedophile democrat do believe that earth is flat, cause it says so in quran.

    1. @Ash Roskell got a better idea why don’t you move instead after all you are anti American just like vomit obama anti American in every way

  2. Trump is a Monster!
    Espteins death was not a coincidence! Very convenient for Trump, Dershwits, and AG Barr!
    Trump taking 155 million tax dollars from FEMA just as Hurricane season gets into full swing, Selling part of the Grand Canyon Parks
    system and other US resources to mining and other destructive companies is unbelievablly Un-American!
    Trump still kissing Putins azz is is Un- American and so is Trumps funding of Concentration camps for the poor and Children yearning to be free!
    Vote for Democratic Candidates in every Election, because the Republicans allow this Criminal to destroy our Country!

    1. @Kevin stevens James Comey is a proven liar and leaker. The Inspector General’s report shows Comey violated the most basic obligations of confidentiality that he owed to the United States Government and to the American people, “in order to achieve a personally desired outcome.” Because Comey shamefully leaked information to the press—in blatant violation of FBI policies—the Nation was forced to endure the baseless politically motivated, two-year witch hunt. Comey disgraced himself and his office to further a personal political agenda, and this report further confirms that fact. (Grisham). Fake news will still look the other way. Or distract to nonsense hatred ‘news’; russiarussia or raisjistraisjist! But TRUTH will come! 🇺🇸📣

    1. Yola Montalvan Trump doesn’t care about anyone or anything but himself. People who think that he cares about them are fools!

  3. There is no planet B!!! @$$hole trump!!! It’s going to be a long 17 months. Register & vote wisely🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊

    1. @Js Somewhere You don’t pay attention do you? That’s all that ever happens in this country: Party A wins; Party B is obstructionist. Loop

    1. @Randy: Destroying America? America is allowing the killing of the entire world….. greed in its highest degree, not caring for the kids of someone else, or even their own by now.

  4. At present Alaska University, you know the place that does all that environmental research, is facing a drop of $800,000,000 drop in financing. I wonder why?

    1. That doesn’t make sense, how exactly does that explain that pedophile woman beater keith ellison praises Hitlerjugends antifa violence on twitter?

    1. But they don’t care, as long as they’re in power they are living a good life at the expense of lower,middle class citizens that are for sure paying taxes. What a shame !!! Disgusting…Americans should take action and protest , have you seen the people in Hong Kong !!??
      I admire them 😍 , it takes courage .

    2. @shad0wCh8ser You’ll die someday. Probably from cancer from all the hate you store in your carbonized heart

    1. @Muhammad was a pedophile caravan robber Hmm – That comment seems a bit silly and unnecessary! But given your choice of screen names, I’m sure that’s your goal anyway – To sew discord and negativity. Interesting! Anyway, no harm done. Have a nice Friday!

  5. WE cannot wait until Jan. 20, *2021* for the new Pres to take over! Everything Traitor Trump touches dies.

    1. @rick nelson Because America is not a democracy – it’s a Representative government and the criminals that put Traitor Trump in had already previously loaded up Congress with the same type of criminal morons and they’ve been Obstructing Justice openly and gleefully.

    2. On that day I will be watching reruns of liberal tears that rained down the previous November.

      Hopefully I’ll have a tumbler full of them (on the rocks of course) to savor as I watch. MAGA2020

    1. But… exactly how does that explain why kiddie fiddler democrats refuse to condemn Hitlerjugends antifa violence?

    2. But… exactly how does that explain why kiddie fiddler democrats refuse to condemn Hitlerjugends antifa violence?

    1. Michael Freeman : Ohhh, never thought of that. Idea seems sound. Trump is an evil savage whiner. Cheney does not whine. I wonder who would walk away from this?
