The Environmental Protection Agency removed federal protections for a majority of the country’s wetlands on Tuesday to comply with a recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling.

    Mark my words, some supposedly far-left groups with ulterior motives are going to use this news to supposedly prove that Biden and the Democrats are anti-environment even though this has nothing to do with him and rather everything to do with our right-wing Supreme Court.

    There have been a lot of Anti-Biden and anti-Democrat posts lately coming from the Left, and nearly all of them are misinformation campaigns from Republican or Russian sponsored groups trying to cause confusion and apathy going into the upcoming 2024 elections.

    Also this is just one of an endless stream of awful Supreme Court rulings that all could have been avoided if only people got off their asses 6 years ago and went out to vote.

      I voted but I’m pretty sure no one thought it was going to be as bad as it was. I agree with you, which is why I posted this as something the SCOTUS did before it got posted from the right wing.

        This is the kind of story that can easy be spun whichever way someone wants.

        In fact I think it will be an even bigger story in a few years when the background of what exactly happened will have been forgotten. You always hear about how Obama was “bad for this” or “bad for that” years after he left office and it is hard to counter those points because the biased news article doesn’t include the rather important backstory.
