'This is an assault' that means people's lives: Gov. Inslee on Project 2025's plans for the climate - Velshi - MSNBC

Project 2025 proposes drastic changes to the federal government’s climate and environmental regulations framework. The authoritarian blueprint includes relaxing reporting requirements for industry polluters, reclassifying toxic pollutants, weakening environmental justice programs, privatizing weather data, and opening up public lands for oil and gas drilling.

“I take this personally,” says longtime climate advocate Washington Governor Jay Inslee. “This is an assault on my state and assault on our families. My state's on fire today because of climate change.” - Aired on 07/28/2024.

There will be no coming back from the destruction this plan will cause to our planet.

5. And would cause this country to become the isolationist outcast of the world rather than a leader for democratic ideals

President Biden has worked so hard to clean up the mess left by the previous administration and to mend fences with our strongest allies. Project 2025 would end everything that has been accomplished in almost 250 years.

8. As much as I like Jay Inslee, I think he should be in the Cabinet, but not VP

As smart as he is, he is unknown to most in the states that are up in the air.

9. Agreed, his drive and knowledge regarding climate change would be an excellent contribution

10. Secession

The necessary response to a Trump second term. There is zero chance west coast states will capitulate to Heritage Foundation/Trump usurpation of the rule of law and trashing of the constitution.
