Another day another reason to label Donald Trump a villain. This time the president is going after an endangered species of whale because their mere existence interferes with his plans to plunder oil from the Gulf of Mexico, sorry, Gulf of America.
This week saw high-ranking officials in Trump’s cabinet known as the “God Squad” vote to end regulations that would protect the species known as Rice’s whale, of which there are only 50 left in existence. According to CNN, the Endangered Species Act (ESA) stood in the way of oil and gas operations in the area with the intention of protecting species in the area.
