Summary
Donald Trump announced former New York congressman Lee Zeldin, a climate regulation opponent, as his nominee to lead the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
Zeldin, who represented Long Island from 2015 to 2023, has a record of voting against 85% of environmental bills, including frequent votes against the Clean Air Act, despite his Suffolk County’s poor air quality.
Trump praised Zeldin for his deregulatory stance, promising “fair and swift” decisions to support American businesses while maintaining environmental standards.
With a Republican-controlled Senate, confirming Trump’s nominees, including Zeldin, is expected to be straightforward.
I was so disappointed to put my glasses on and learn that Led Zeppelin is not the new head of the EPA.
Damn I saw the same thing.
The only thing that would surprise me is if trump hired someone that was descent and or qualifications for the job.
We’re cooked.
Literally.
Thanks for the EPA, Nixon. It was a good run.
Last Trump, there was a pretty good way to predict who would get what position: Pick an agency, and google ‘tried to sue <insert agency here>’.
We did it, Patrick! We saved the environment!
Why does his wife look more like him than he does?
I suggest America change it’s motto to “Rollin’ Coal.”
Here we go again…
