In response to this post “#Trump’s irresponsibility is no surprise,” said Christiana Figueres, a Costa Rican diplomat and an architect of the #ParisAgreement in 2015. “In time, Trump will not be around but history will point to him and his #FossilFuel friends with no pardon.” #climate #ClimateCrisis #science #ParisAccord #USpol #geopolitics

In response to this post The new #Trump White House on Monday said that President Trump would withdraw the #UnitedStates from the #ParisAgreement, the pact among almost all nations to fight #ClimateChange. By withdrawing, the US would join #Iran, #Libya & #Yemen as the only 4 countries not party to the agreement, under which nations work together to keep #GlobalWarming below levels that could lead to to #environmental catastrophe.
The move, one of several #energy-related announcements in the hours immediately following his inauguration, is yet another about-face in #UnitedStates participation in global #climate negotiations. During his first term #Trump withdrew from the #ParisAccord, but then President #Biden quickly rejoined in 2020 after winning the White House. Scientists, activists & Democratic ofcls assailed the move as one that would deepen the #ClimateCrisis & backfire on American #workers.

The #Pentagon unveiled a portrait of ret. Gen. #MarkMilley, former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, earlier this month.
But now that #Trump is president, & hours after Milley received a pre-emptive pardon from #Biden on his way out the door, Milley's portrait appears to have been taken down.
Milley served in his Joint Chiefs role under both Trump & Biden, & according to a book by journalist Bob Woodward, Milley called Trump “a #fascist to the core.”
