Sober, mom, DC area rat. 🐀 Sometimes I muse at you about politics or religion and occasionally tell a good joke.💙

I’m always amazed that people continue to support Trump when he has shown over and over and over again that he will completely betray you and throw you in the trash once you are of no use to him.

The black lung rate in Appalachia is now as high as it was in the 1970s. Remember: Trump indefinitely stalled a rule that would limit miners’ exposure to dangerous silica dust, which causes black lung. Trump doesn’t care about miners’ health. He never has and he never will.

Talarico’s argument is simple: Stop treating marijuana like a crime. Legalize it. Regulate it. Tax it. Stop wasting police resources on low-level marijuana offenses. Clear the records of people whose lives have been derailed by nonviolent marijuana convictions.
