Re: H.R.861 - To terminate the Environmental Protection Agency.
None of this will matter when the oceans food chain collapses.
​
"With higher metabolic rates in the warmer water, and therefore a greater demand for food, there is a mismatch with less food available for carnivoresthe bigger fish that fisheries industries are based around," says Associate Professor Nagelkerken. "There will be a species collapse from the top of the food chain down."

When this happens the planet will starve to death, triggering the greatest mass extinction not seen in this world for 60 million years.

Re: SCOTUS on gerrymandering?
Just out of curiosity, what is the difference between the US and Canada that allows third parties to be successful in Canada?
​
private funding. Canada's federal election finance laws put limits on contributions to political parties and candidates. Only individuals not corporations or trade unions may donate.
​
The US system is corrupt and controlled by corporate interest, it's no longer "we the people" it's "us the corporations."
