I would say three. Male. Female. And then those poor, unfortunate hermies.

TIME TO BRING BACK THE OBAMA CAGES!

There are the third genders or non-binary gender in Denmark, Canada, Germany, Australia, New Zealand, India and Parkistan..., and some states of USA. 

Wait a second, didn't Donald J Trump tried to buy Greenland, which is the Danish autonomous territory?

Trump falsely claims deregulations are now saving over $3000 annually for average American household according to fact checking by Washingtonpost.  However deregulations aren't supposed to start working until 5-10 years later.  Estimates by his Council of economic advisors are based on assumptions open to question or challenge by other economists. 

Benefit-cost analysis is the proper way to evaluate regulations.  But costs of regulation are overestimated while benefits are ignored.  For example, weaker regulation to replace Clean power plan would increase air pollution.  This could lead to thousands of  premature deaths and asthma problems annually according to Environmental protection agency, 

Foolish to cut $6 billion in regulation costs and suffer up to $75 billion in healthcare costs.  29 states have filed lawsuits accusing EPA of violating Clean air act.  According to Institute for policy integrity, Trump administration has lost over 90% of court battles over deregulation.

In Fiscal Year 2018, the Trump Administration has saved, on net, more than $23 billion in regulatory costs.By contrast, the Obama Administration imposed, on net, more than $245 billion in regulatory costs during the same time period.

The Trump administration represents a fundamental change in the direction of the administrative state, which has remained unchecked for decades..

The Trump administration’s work with Congress has resulted in 16 pieces of deregulatory legislation in education, mining, retirement accounts, and other fields. The combined effect of the congressional actions is expected to result in $40 billion in additional income for U.S. households.....

Trump's deregulation push is driven by corporate greed, dangerous for families and potentially diastrous for US economy according to Public citizen organization.  Obviously, deregulation is an attempt at self enrichment and payback for corporate donors.  Trump defies public opinion since polls show most Americans prefer more protective regulation and enforcement. 

Politifact debunks the false claim that regulation costs too much.  Major regulations produce up to $800 billion in net benefits over past decade according to US office of management budget.  Bottom line is that benefits vastly outweigh costs.

Another false claim is that cutting regulations create jobs and grow the economy.  Coal industry executives admit repeal of Clean power plan would do nothing to bring back jobs.  But cutting regulations can lead to economic diaster.  For example, deregulation of wallstreet lead to 2008 financial crisis and the great recession which cost Americans up to $14 trillion and 8 million jobs.  Bottom line is that  regulation is essential to a properous economy and can even create jobs.

If Barack Obama had “hereby ordered” private companies to do anything, every Republican & Conservative in America would have completely lost their shit.

So says Republican Presidential candidate Joe Walsh.

Looks like another coal company is filing for bankruptcy which will it the 4th since October.

Revelation Energy will layoff about 1,800 workers in Virginia, Wyoming, West Virginia & Kentucky.

That make it 51 coal plants closed & 8 coal companies filing for bankruptcy since Trump's election.

These Trumpsters can't be too happy about Trump's broken promises to revitalize the industry.

Did you know the toothbrush was invented by an old Canadian hockey player?

If invented elsewhere, it would have been called a teethbrush.

I almost gagged when I heard Trump say today that he's an "environmentalist"

When questioned as to why he didn't attend Climate Sessions @ the G7 meeting, the press reported Trump was meeting with Germany & India.

What the press failed to mention is that both Merkel & Modhi attended the Climate Sessions. So who the fark was Trump meeting with from Germany/India? 

As much as he complains about the Enemy of the People, he gets a pass from them far too often.

Trump stated that China had called twice yesterday to discuss the trade impasse. China's representative stated no calls took place.

I never thought I would ever believe a foreign country before our president.  

Trump & his entire administration lack credibility.

Boris Johnson was born in New York but in 2016 renounced his US citizenship after being hit with a 5 figure tax bill by US authorities.

As a side note, his girlfriend Carrie Symonds was denied a US work visa last week because of a trip she made to East Africa (Somaliland).

AG Roy Cohn booked his annual holiday party for 200 people at Trump's DC hotel. Can't wait to see the pond scum list of attendees at this soiree.

Meanwhile Trump is fighting a lawsuit levied against his Doral hotel. A customer states bedbugs attacked him while sleeping. The only thing worse than bedbugs @ Trump's National Doral is a bugged room in a Moscow hotel.

This is the same place where Trump boasted about his club being near the Miami airport. What salesman would mention this supposedly serene atmosphere with great views being near the airport? Seriously... a 1000 flights leave there daily. And he wants the next G7 meeting in the summer...in Miami. WTF is he thinking? Nobody comes to Florida in the summer. Floridians are all trying to get out!
