Ring of Fire: Obama’s Secret Anti-Environmental Agenda

Few issues are as pressing in regards to the human race as a whole than the threat of catastrophic climate change. Leaders from around the world meet almost yearly to discuss ways to mitigate the effects of climate change, but back home, policies are being instituted that will only worsen the situation. So we’re going to take a look at some of those decisions today as part of an environmental roundtable discussion.

They bought off OBAMA and got the Coast Guard to spray Corexit to sink the oil to the bottom out of sight. They bribed the Plaintiff's Steering Committee appointed by the Judge (Judge's buddies) with a $660,000,000 "Common Benefit Fund" that the PSC only gets if this terrible, one-sided class settlement agreement goes through to the end without being overturned. The PSC will not lift a finger to stop this even though 75% of the victims are being denied and BP drags the litigation out forever causing people to just give up. The Judge has done everything he can do to protect the agreement and his buddies getting $660,000,000!!!
We have to take back control over our Representative! We must demand Publicly Funded Elections and an end to campaign contributions and the Revolving Door! When we make a serious move towards this you will see some real resistance because we are fighting to take the 1%'s control away. Bernie Sanders is on record as wanting to do this. This is the battle of our time, if we do nothing our kids and grand kids future is bleak!
