We're taking the Trump admin. to court to stop it from allowing endangered species to be killed. In September, FWS director, Brian Nesvik, issued a directive attempting to strip imperiled wildlife of protections from activities that can harm or kill them. In the #ESA, this is known as "take."

Historians will never believe that the once powerful American military was run by a failed Fox News host and he hired 3 rich, white men who had never served to be in charge of “the future of warfare”. What a fucking joke! #Blues

This is the problem with a political party that relies on lying - and media not calling out that lying. The federal government's proclamations are a hall of mirrors. Watch what they do, not what they say.
