The recent actions of the Senate allowing rules promulgated around previously passed laws to be overturned with 51 votes and prevents the agencies from taking any action to assure that the spirit of the law is upheld is very very discouraging. This week they overturned a law that makes it illegal for Oil Company executives to bribe foreign officials and to keep Coal companies from dumping their slag into clean rivers.
There is a growing number of people who are suggesting that many of the controversial actions of Trump and Bannon are intended to create a diversion while they make sub-rosa changes like this that most Americans would find highly objectionable.
