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.
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.
