Trump exempts 70 coal plants from Biden-era rule on toxic air pollution

The Trump administration has granted nearly 70 coal-fired power plants a two-year exemption from federal requirements to reduce emissions of toxic chemicals such as mercury, arsenic and benzene. A list quietly posted as of Tuesday on the Environmental Protection Agency's website lists 47 power providers which operate at least 66 coal-fired plants that are receiving exemptions from the Biden-era rules under the Clean Air Act, including a regulation limiting air pollution from mercury and other toxins. The actions follow an executive order last week by President Donald Trump aimed at boosting the struggling coal industry, a reliable but polluting energy source that's long been in decline. Among plants receiving exemptions is the Colstrip Generating Station, a massive power plant in Colstrip, Montana, that emits more toxic air pollutants such as lead and arsenic than any other U.S. facility of its kind, according to the EPA. Other plants with exemptions include Coal Creek Station, a .

Biden warns that Trump administration 'taking hatchet' to social security

Former President Joe Biden warned on Tuesday that President Donald Trump has taken a hatchet to Social Security, weighing in on a critical issue for millions of Americans as the 82-year-old Democrat briefly returned to the national stage. Biden, who has largely avoided speaking publicly since leaving the White House in January, delivered his pointed message during an evening speech at the national conference of Advocates, Counselors and Representatives for the Disabled in Chicago. The former president, who was largely focused on his prepared remarks but rambled at moments, was speaking as Democrats across the nation offered similar warnings for what they described as a Social Security Day of Action. In fewer than 100 days, this new administration has done so much damage and so much destruction. It's kind of breathtaking," Biden charged during a speech that spanned just under a half hour. They've taken a hatchet to the Social Security Administration. It was no coincidence that ...

Judge orders release of billions from two key Biden-era initiatives

A federal judge on Tuesday ordered the Trump administration to release billions of dollars meant to finance climate and infrastructure projects across the country. US District Judge Mary McElroy, who was appointed by President Donald Trump during his first term, sided with conservation and nonprofit groups and issued a preliminary injunction until she rules on the merits of the lawsuit. The injunction is nationwide. McElroy concluded that the seven nonprofits demonstrated that the freeze was arbitrary and capricious and that the powers asserted by the federal agencies, including the White House's Office of Management and Budget, in halting the payouts were not found in federal law. Agencies do not have unlimited authority to further a President's agenda, nor do they have unfettered power to hamstring in perpetuity two statutes passed by Congress during the previous administration, she wrote. The nonprofits said that an executive order issued by Trump resulted in projects funded by

Trump reverses Biden-era rule, allows more water flow from showerheads

US President Donald Trump has long complained about modern rules that limit water flow for showerheads, making it harder for him to wash his "beautiful hair". In his first term, Trump directed that restrictions on showerheads be loosened, an action that former President Joe Biden reversed. Now Trump is going to let the water flow again. An executive order he signed Wednesday calls for an immediate end to water conservation standards that restrict the number of gallons per minute that flow through showerheads and other appliances such as dishwashers, washing machines and toilets. I like to take a nice shower, take care of my beautiful hair," Trump said Wednesday as he signed an executive order at the White House. I have to stand in the shower for 15 minutes until it gets wet. Comes out drip, drip, drip. It's ridiculous." What you do is you end up washing your hands five times longer, so it's the same water,' he added. "And we're going to open it up so that people can live. The or
