'Death sentence': butterfly sanctuary to be bulldozed for Trump's border wall

More than 200 species make their homes at America’s most diverse sanctuary, but construction through the reserve could begin in February

Construction illegally started here last year without the proper paper work. And implied threats.

This wasn’t even eminent domain, because they never seized the land they just started showing up with it still privately owned.

So, I live nowhere near here, but if anyone wants to try to do something I felt I should spread the word.

This should be something supporters of private land ownership and enviornmentalists both agree on.

Destroying a butterfly sanctuary to build a militarized border fence is one of those things that would be heavy handed metaphors in fiction.

Unfortunately this is real life.

Trump is so cartoonishly evil he tells a kid there’s no Santa on Christmas Eve and now is becoming a Captain Planet villain yet there are some people out there who somehow still see no problem. 

The sanctuary is taking donations to help pay their legal fees (referenced in article) if anyone can afford to donate a dollar or two.

Wait I know I just reblogged this but did trump actually tell a kid that Santa isn’t real on xmas eve? Because that…… is something else.

I think he asked a little girl if she “still believed” because at 7 the chances of her believing were “marginal”.

It’s a bit of a dodgy wording and typical Trump but not exactly telling her Santa isn’t real, if I recall.
