Why German Leaders Are Getting Kicked Out Of Office - They Didn't Understand This: American EPA Ends The 'Green New Deal'

"Yesterday was the most consequential day of deregulation in American history. Alongside President Trump, we announced that the Environmental Protection Agency will take 31 actions to advance his day-one executive orders and power the Great American Comeback.

By overhauling massive rules on the endangerment finding, the social cost of carbon and similar issues, we are driving a dagger through the heart of climate-change religion and ushering in America's Golden Age. These actions will roll back trillions of dollars in regulatory costs and hidden taxes. As a result, the cost of living for American families will decrease, and essentials such as buying a car, heating your home and operating a business will become more affordable. Our actions will also reignite American manufacturing, spreading economic benefits to communities.

The EPA will continue to protect human health and the environment while unleashing America's full potential. That means reconsidering the regulations that have restricted every sector of the economy, such as the illegal Clean Power Plan 2.0, Mercury and Air Toxics Standards, and Particulate Matter 2.5 levels. Under President Trump's guidance, the EPA also has ended the electric-vehicle mandate that threatened to destroy America's auto industry and made cars cost more. Instead of forcing Americans to buy expensive vehicles they neither want nor can keep powered up, we are restoring choice to consumers and bringing automaking jobs back home in line with our Great American Comeback initiative. This commitment to our manufacturing base contrasts with Biden administration policies that shipped jobs overseas.

Energy dominance stands at the center of America's resurgence. By reconsidering rules that throttled oil and gas production and unfairly targeted coal-fired power plants, we are ensuring that American energy remains clean, affordable, and reliable. This isn't about abandoning environmental protection -- it's about achieving it through innovation and not strangulation.

The EPA's commitment to permit reform cannot be overstated. By cutting through red tape and resolving the backlog of state and tribal implementation plans, we are creating an environment where businesses can thrive and infrastructure can be built. This is how America will become the artificial-intelligence capital of the world -- by removing barriers to ingenuity and investment and advancing cooperative federalism.

Our work to end Good Neighbor Plan emission requirements and work in partnership with the 19 states whose air-quality plans were rejected by the previous administration recognizes that states and communities know best how to address their environmental challenges.

Today marks the death of the Green New Scam. The EPA recognizes that environmental protection and economic prosperity aren't mutually exclusive goals. Under President Trump's leadership, we are recommitting to the core American values of innovation, growth, exceptionalism and opportunity.

Critics may claim that these changes signal a retreat from environmental protection. Nothing could be further from the truth. Under the Trump administration, the EPA's core mission remains safeguarding human health and the environment. The difference lies in how we achieve these goals -- through partnership rather than prescriptive bureaucracy, through collaboration rather than regulation.

The EPA's approach is balanced and sustainable as we enter America's Golden Age. We are protecting the environment not by shutting down energy production but by making it cleaner and more efficient. We are creating jobs not by government mandate but through policies that advance opportunity and the entrepreneurial spirit that has always driven American prosperity.

These common-sense policies preserve our environment and work for all Americans. As we unleash American energy, revitalize domestic manufacturing, cut costs for families, and restore the rule of law, we do so with the firm belief that America's greatest days lie ahead.

Į Lietuvą vėl ateina pavojingi laikai. Britai, lenkai ir vokiečiai trokšta branduolinio karo. Lietuvos elitas vėl prašo Amerikos lietuvių paramos

 Lietuvos elitas lietuvius, išvykusius į Ameriką po neseniai paskelbtos nepriklausomybės, laiko pabėgusiais vergais ir prievarta atima Lietuvos pilietybę iš gaunančių JAV pilietybę. Vienintelis būdas išlaikyti ir Lietuvos pilietybę, ir gyventi Amerikoje ilgą laiką – gauti Amerikos žaliąją kortelę. Tačiau tai yra viza. Ji gali būti atimta dėl daugelio priežasčių, kaip parodyta žemiau pateiktame pavyzdyje. Amerikos lietuviams sunku palaikyti Lietuvą po tokio nesąžiningo ir griežto elgesio, kurį Lietuva jiems suteikia. Jų, kaip pabėgusių vergų, padėtis yra bloga jiems ir bloga Lietuvai.

 

 „Trumpo administracijos sprendimas atšaukti žaliosios kortelės imigracijos statusą propalestinietiškam aktyvistui Mahmoudo Khaliliui tampa įžymybe, geruoju, o gal ir blogiau. Ponas Khalilas gali nusipelnyti deportacijos, tačiau jis taip pat nusipelno tinkamo proceso, o žaliųjų kortelių atšaukimas, kaip politika, kainuotų ne tik kiekvieno asmens likimą.

 

 Pastarąjį, regis, turi omenyje D. Trumpas. „Tai pirmasis areštas iš daugelio, kurie ateina“, – „Truth Social“ paskelbė D. Trumpas. „Mes surasime, sulaikysime ir deportuosime šiuos teroristų simpatijas iš mūsų šalies – kad daugiau niekada negrįšime“, – X.com pasakojo jis.

 

 Valstybės sekretorius Marco Rubio paskelbė, kad administracija „atšauks „Hamas“ šalininkų Amerikoje vizas ir (arba) žaliąsias korteles, kad jie galėtų būti deportuoti“.

 

 Žaliosios kortelės turėtojų deportacija neturėtų būti vertinama lengvai. Jie yra nuolatiniai gyventojai, kurie siekė teisinio patvirtinimo ir buvo patikrinti oficialiais kanalais. Milijonai žmonių žaliąją kortelę laiko saugaus gyvenimo JAV garantija ir kuria savo gyvenimą aplink ją.

 

 Khalilo byloje daugelis žaliosios kortelės turėtojų svarsto, ar jie taip pat galėtų būti sučiupti ir deportuoti dėl prieštaringų politinių pažiūrų. Štai kodėl svarbūs jo bylos faktai ir diena teisme.“ [1]

Dangerous times are coming to Lithuania again. The British, Polish and Germans are itching for a nuclear war. Lithuanian elites are asking from American Lithuanians for support again

Lithuanian elites keep considering Lithuanians who left for America after declaration of recent independence as run away slaves and enforce taking away their Lithuanian citizenship though. The only way to keep both Lithuanian citizenship and to live in America long term is to get an American green card. This is a visa though. It could be taken away for many reasons, as the example below demonstrates. It is difficult for American Lithuanians to support Lithuania after such unfair and harsh treatment that Lithuania gives to them. Their position as runaway slaves is bad for them and bad for Lithuania.

"The Trump Administration's decision to revoke the green-card immigration status of pro-Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil is becoming a cause celebre, for better and maybe worse. Mr. Khalil may deserve deportation, but he also deserves due process, and revoking green cards as a policy would have costs beyond any individual's fate.

The latter is what Mr. Trump seems to have in mind. "This is the first arrest of many to come," Mr. Trump posted on Truth Social. "We will find, apprehend, and deport these terrorist sympathizers from our country -- never to return again," he elaborated on X.com. 

Secretary of State Marco Rubio posted that the Administration "will be revoking the visas and/or green cards of Hamas supporters in America so they can be deported."

The deportation of green-card holders shouldn't be taken lightly. They are permanent residents who sought legal approval and were vetted through official channels. Millions of people consider the green card a guarantee of secure U.S. residency and build their lives around it. 

The Khalil case has many green-card holders wondering if they could also be grabbed and deported for espousing controversial political views. That's why the facts of his case and a day in court matter." [1]
