Trump and his cabinet members plan to elevate the interests of billionaires over our planet and our communities while spreading propaganda to hide the truth about their actions. Fossil fuel billionaires have been emboldened to further exploit communities most impacted by the climate crisis and to ignore the reality that climate change is one of the greatest threats humanity is facing.
