The Spin

Pro-Trump narrative

America's economic backbone has been strangled by ideological climate regulations masquerading as environmental protection. The EPA's trillion-dollar regulatory overreach has devastated industries, killed jobs, and inflated energy costs while ignoring its own scientific skepticism. It's time to liberate U.S. enterprise from this bureaucratic tyranny and restore common-sense environmental stewardship that empowers rather than destroys.

Anti-Trump narrative

Trump's EPA is orchestrating environmental destruction under the guise of deregulation. Nearly 200,000 lives hang in the balance Trump administration rolls back Obama-era EPA rule that curbed toxic pollutants. Career scientists face retaliation for defending public health while corporate polluters receive trillion-dollar favors. This isn't policy — it's sanctioned ecological vandalism threatening America's most vulnerable communities.
