Butthurt: Wackos Sue Over Trump Pulling Climate Scam Messages From National Parks

By William Teach February 19, 2026 – 7:15 am

There was no law requiring the messages, so, what’s the problem?

Groups sue over Trump effort to ‘erase’ history, science in national parks

A coalition of scientific, preservation and historical groups on Tuesday sued the Trump administration, arguing that the removal of information about civil rights, climate change and other topics at multiple national parks amounts to illegal censorship.

“Censoring science and erasing America’s history at national parks are direct threats to everything these amazing places, and our country, stand for,” Alan Spears, senior director of cultural resources for the National Parks Conservation Association, said in a statement announcing the filing. “As Americans, we deserve national parks that tell stories of our country’s triumphs and heartbreaks alike. We can handle the truth.”

Tuesday’s lawsuit, filed in a federal court in Massachusetts, argues that in its haste to carry out President Donald Trump’s order, the Interior Department has ignored well-established principles and legal requirements when seeking to overhaul information presented at national parks.

“The orders and resulting implementation actions ignore Congress’s mandate for how the parks must be managed; erase the history of countless people and communities from public spaces; limit the availability of scientific information relevant to ensuring the long-term preservation of the parks themselves; and impair the mission of the National Park Service to preserve the parks ‘for the enjoyment, education, and inspiration of this and future generations,’” the legal complaint states.

The suit really mentions zero laws requiring these messages, only the Administrative Procedure Act, saying the silly messages were removed without going through a long, stupid process. How much of a process did the messages go through to be put up? For the most part, none of them are necessary. Just let people go to the parks without cult preaching. Remember this?

Glacier National Park is replacing signs that predicted its glaciers would be gone by 2020

The signs at Glacier National Park warning that its signature glaciers would be gone by 2020 are being changed.

The signs in the Montana park were added more than a decade ago to reflect climate change forecasts at the time by the US Geological Survey, park spokeswoman Gina Kurzmen told CNN. (snip)

But the glacier warning isn’t being removed entirely, she told CNN. Instead, the new signs will say: “When they will completely disappear depends on how and when we act. One thing is consistent: the glaciers in the park are shrinking.

So, a failed prognostication so they just said “it’s going to happen sometime.” We don’t need this crap.

Immigrants Are Helping NC And We Totally Need A Fair Immigration System Or Something

By William Teach February 19, 2026 – 7:00 am

What a wonderful photo. It’s like Democrats think illegals are only around to pick food, do their lawns, and serve them. From the link

North Carolina is one of the nation’s most attractive migration destinations, currently ranking third behind Florida and Texas. Averaging 374 newcomers daily, net migration—more people moving in than leaving — was responsible for 95% (573,272) of the state’s absolute population growth (604,525) between 2020 and 2024.

Thirty percent of North Carolina’s newcomers moved from abroad (182,263). And, notably, these international migrants assumed residence and drove population growth in some of the state’s major hubs of higher education, employment, research and development, sports, entertainment, and recreation.

Given ongoing restrictions on international migration and accelerating deportation of immigrants, the crucial question is this: Can North Carolina — a state in which international migration has played a critical role in growth and development — maintain its reputation as one of the best places to live and to do business in America in the future?

How many of them were legal? How many illegal/fake asylum seekers?

The answer depends on how we respond to other disruptive demographic trends we are experiencing as a nation and as a state: declining fertility, population aging, age-related mortality, and premature deaths of despair among native born Americans. If international migration is curtailed, census statistics confirm that these forces will continue to contribute to a progressive slowing of the annual rate of U.S. population growth and foreshadow absolute population decline — a historic first for our nation.

So, we have to replace Americans with foreigners with no allegiance to America? Sure sounds like Great Replacement Theory, which I was told wasn’t real.

A fair and just immigration policy is a strategic imperative for future growth and economic prosperity — in North Carolina and beyond. In reforming existing law and repealing executive orders governing immigration, the goals should be similar to those that led to the passage of the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965. Also referred to as the Hart-Cellar Act, the law replaced a “half-century old discriminatory national origins system; prioritized family reunification, employment, and refugee status; and opened the doors of the U.S. to non-European immigration.”

We have that: they can apply for citizenship and go through the process. They can apply for a visa, come and work for a period of time. Then go home. That’s not what Democrats want: they want to open the floodgates for people from 3rd world shitholes and others who do not want to become Americans, they want to fundamentally change America to what they came from. And be Democrat voters.

Mamdani Is Going After NYC Cops

By William Teach February 18, 2026 – 4:44 pm

When I wrote this in the morning I was joking: “Hey, maybe the city could simply defund all the cops, fire departments, and sanitation”. But, really, you just had to know that Mamdani would want to get rid of cops

The NYPD is already down at least 16% from their budget for officers, which is also well below what they really need. I’m betting Zohran’s security detail will not see cuts.

TDS: Orange Man Bad Taking Junk Food Away From Snap Recipients

By William Teach February 18, 2026 – 3:00 pm

Seriously, this could just be titled “Democrats Are Against Everything Trump Is For”

From the link, which was originally in the People’s Republik Of Chicago Tribune

Major changes to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, courtesy of President Donald Trump and his GOP-controlled Congress, have arrived across the nation. The reforms to the food assistance program for the needy come via the 2025 “One Big Beautiful Bill Act.”

The law mandates that SNAP recipients aged 18 to 64, and parents who don’t have children under 14 must document that they are working or volunteering for a total of 80 hours a month. If they don’t, they risk losing benefits.

Remember when Dems were behind Bill Clinton’s “workfare”?

In Indiana and other states, other reforms of SNAP should delight the Fat Nag. The Fat Nag, that is, yours truly. I have railed for decades against sugar, fast foods and other edible evils. My alter ago has lectured, pleaded and begged my readers to run for their lives from Doritos, Ding Dongs and Sprite.

America is drowning in fat. In 2023, around 40% of adults were defined as obese, according to data from Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

So, you might conclude that the Nag is delighted that residents of Indiana, Iowa and three other states are now forbidden from using SNAP food assistance for soda, candy and other foods, after waivers approved by the U.S. Department of Agriculture that began Jan. 1.

Not.

If it was a President Harris doing this Laura Washington would be in favor of it.

At least 18 states will enact federal waivers prohibiting the purchase of certain foods this year. The new restrictions vary from state to state but are being promoted by the Trump administration’s Make America Healthy Again campaign (MAHA). It’s “part of a push by Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins to urge states to strip foods regarded as unhealthy from the $100 billion federal program – long known as food stamps – that serves 42 million Americans,” the Associated Press reports. SNAP benefits are provided through an electronic transfer, like a debit card, and accepted at most grocery stores. (snip)

However, the Nag is not cheering these new SNAP restrictions. In fact, the Nag is incensed. I cannot abide this so-called MAHA ploy. It is a sham, a fraud and just another Trump “policy” that is just so much political flim-flam.

Why? Because Laura doesn’t like RFK, Jr. And because Trump is fat. And

This ban on sweet SNAP purchases is being handed down from Trump’s malevolent mountain. It is aimed at punishing low-income, struggling families.

This is just pure batshit crazy Trump Derangement Syndrome. There is no actual, adult, reasonable reason for taking the side of letting SNAP recipients purchase shit “food” with their benefits. Just TDS. MAGA (Make Asylums Great Again).

LOL: Mamdani Pushes For Increased Property Taxes In NYC

By William Teach February 18, 2026 – 10:30 am

This is what you voted for in NYC, Democrats

Mamdani floats increasing New York City property taxes as part of $127B budget plan

Mayor Zohran Mamdani proposed raising New York City’s property taxes Tuesday as part of this year’s budget — the democratic socialist’s latest gambit to pressure Albany to hike taxes on the wealthy.

Mamdani unveiled a $127 billion preliminary budget proposal for the next fiscal year, which begins in July. As part of that plan, Mamdani is relying in large part on a 9.5 percent increase in city property taxes — which he can do without state approval — to help close a projected $5.4 billion revenue shortfall over the coming two fiscal years.

But that’s not enough, so in order to balance the budget — as he must by law — he’s also proposing drawing down some $1.2 billion from the city’s “rainy day” fund and retiree health care reserves.

Mamdani’s proposed increase — which drew swift pushback from various elected officials, including Gov. Kathy Hochul — would put a hefty burden on working- and middle-class homeowners in the city. The democratic socialist mayor acknowledged the increased taxes would impact more than 3 million residential units in the city, with the New Yorkers owning them having a median income of $122,000.

What Mamdani wants to do instead is to increase taxes on millionaires and major corporations this year — new levies that only Albany can enact.

So, he can either raise property taxes on everyone (is there a way to make the tax only apply to those who voted for Mamdani?), provided he can get it past the city council, or the state of NY can raise it on the people who truly generate income and employ people and then see lots of them leave the city and state. And don’t forget that raising the property tax on building owners will mean rent for apartments and businesses.

Hey, maybe the city could simply defund all the cops, fire departments, and sanitation. That would do it, right? Or, the city could do an audit on where it is wasting money. Like, perhaps, looking at how the city spent over $10 billion on illegal aliens/fake asylum seekers the past few years and put the city in a $5 billion hole. And will probably spend billions this year.

Your Fault: There’s A Lot Of Climate Hushing Going On

By William Teach February 18, 2026 – 7:00 am

It’s easy to broadcast a lot on ‘climate change’ when there’s little going on, but, when people have real concerns the cult takes a backseat. Plus, I just think the cult has been overplayed in the media, people are mostly tired of the end of the world doom

Climate Worries Rise but Dialogue Fades

climate doom yearly

Wait, I don’t have global heating on here?

There’s a stark disconnect between Americans’ worry about climate change and the amount of attention the issue is receiving publicly, a recent survey by the Yale Program on Climate Change Communication (YPCCC) and George Mason University found.

A majority of the American public is worried about global warming, believe it is affecting the cost of living, and want to vote for a candidate who will take action on the issue, yet media coverage and political discourse on the issue has been declining.

Only 17% of Americans surveyed said they hear about climate change in the media at least once a week and only 9% of Americans say they hear about it on social media once a week.

“We’re hearing a lot of climate hushing among the political class, many of whom presume that Americans … don’t want to hear about climate change. That’s not what we see in the data. There are 68 million Americans who are ‘Alarmed’ about climate change, and they want to hear about solutions. They want to hear more from their leaders as well as the media,”said Anthony Leiserowitz, YPCC director and the JoshAni-TomKat Professor of Climate Communication at YSE.  The fall 2025 survey, Climate Change in the American Mind, which has been conducted twice each year since 2008, found that:

They have been programed for Doom, but, things change in the Real World. Heck, do you hear much about Ukraine anymore? How about Gaza? COVID? The War on Terror? Can you believe 9/11 was 25 years ago?

Anyhow, those 68 million Americans never seem to be alarmed enough to give up their own use of fossil fuels and make their lives carbon neutral, eh?

Oh Noes, Mayor Of Uber-White Burlington, Vermont Signs Order On Immigration Enforcement

By William Teach February 18, 2026 – 6:45 am

I guess she’s worried about the few immigrants who do the lawns and cooking and stuff for the citizens of Burlington

Burlington mayor signs executive order on immigration enforcement

Burlington Mayor Emma Mulvaney-Stanak is taking a stand on the city’s response to any potential ramping up of federal immigration enforcement.

The mayor signed an executive order on Tuesday morning that she says establishes clear citywide protocols for preparedness, transparency, and constitutional policing if the federal government conducts similar operations as it has in other U.S. cities.

The order updates citywide alert systems, creates rapid communication systems, trains staff, and reaffirms that the Burlington Police will not engage in civil immigration enforcement. (snip)

Burlington was among a handful of Vermont communities that first passed “sanctuary city” resolutions back in 2016 that aimed to limit or deny cooperation with federal authorities in enforcing immigration laws.

The pro-criminal virtue signalling is hilarious. I mean

  • White: 84% – 85%
  • Black/African American: 3.6% – 4%
  • Asian: 3.7% – 4.2%
  • Two or More Races: 3% – 6%
  • Hispanic/Latino: 1.5%

There are no numbers on how many illegals/fake asylum seekers in Burlington, but, the median income and hope prices are pretty high for Vermont. Violent crime is very low, though, property crime is pretty high for the area. It’s also extremely liberal, so, they most likely would welcome the illegals and then ship them elsewhere. It’d be hilarious if Trump said “listen, we’re not going to send immigration enforcement to Burlington, so, any illegal is safe there. Let the city deal with the fallout.

Trump Tells Feds To Get Involved With Massive Sewage Leak On Potomac

By William Teach February 17, 2026 – 3:50 pm

Funny how this is just barely making the news

If it was an oil tanker or something they could Blame Trump for, the Credentialed Media and Democrats would be all over it

Trump Directs Federal Officials to Get Involved in Potomac Sewage Crisis

President Donald Trump weighed in on the ongoing Potomac River sewage crisis, stating on Monday that he was “directing Federal Authorities to immediately provide all necessary Management, Direction, and Coordination to protect” the river.

In a Truth Social post, Trump stated that the ongoing sewage crisis that was “unfolding” was the “result of the Gross Mismanagement of Local Democrat Leaders,” like Maryland Gov. Wes Moore (D). Trump went on to state the Moore “is the same Governor who cannot rebuild a Bridge.”

“There is a massive Ecological Disaster unfolding in the Potomac River as a result of the Gross Mismanagement of Local Democrat Leaders, particularly, Governor Wes Moore, of Maryland,” Trump said. “A sewer line breach in Maryland has caused millions of gallons of raw sewage to be dumped into the Potomac River, a result of incompetent Local and State Management of Essential Waste Management Systems.”

Trump continued to point out that it was “clear Local Authorities cannot adequately handle this calamity.”

“Therefore, I am directing Federal Authorities to immediately provide all necessary Management, Direction, and Coordination to protect the Potomac, the Water Supply in the Capital Region, and our treasured National Resources in our Nation’s Capital City,” Trump added.

This has been going on since January 19th, and has so far not been fixed. Damned near a month later, and they still expect it to take 4 to 6 weeks to be fixed.

The NY Times, and many other outlets, are Upset that Trump dared to make this pronouncement. Getting beyond that

“Whether it’s 200 million or 300 million gallons, this is an extraordinary ecological and public health disaster,” said Tom Kiernan, the president and chief executive of the conservation group American Rivers, who often rows on the Potomac, and grew up kayaking on the river.

Authorities have not said when people can safely resume activities on the river. Crews with D.C. Water are currently diverting sewage from the broken pipe through a section of the C&O Canal, which runs along the Potomac from Washington to Cumberland, Md.

The Potomac at that point hasn’t been truly safe for a long time. Maybe we should stop wasting all that time and money on the climate scam and deal with real environmental issues, eh?
