TRUMP ADMIN WILL ‘SHED LIGHT’ ON A SECRETIVE PRACTICE THAT COSTS TAXPAYERS MILLIONS OF DOLLARS
The Interior Department will create a website that makes public attorneys’ fees paid out in legal settlements, often with environmentalists.
Environmental activists have raked in tens of millions of dollars suing under laws, like the Endangered Species Act, which require taxpayers to foot the bill for litigation costs.
A 2016 DCNF investigation found taxpayers paid out nearly $50 million in attorneys’ fees to groups suing under three major environmental laws during the Obama administration.
The Interior Department will publicly list attorneys’ fees paid out, often to environmental activist groups, for legal settlements, according to a recent memo from Principal Deputy Solicitor Daniel Jorjani.

Jorjani’s memo states the Interior Department will develop a webpage within 30 days to publicly list details of legal settlements and cases, which the agency says is a big step in bringing sunshine to a non-transparent practice that the public is largely unaware is happening.

They don't really care whether the truth gets out, because the public no longer knows what's meant by "the truth."

Well, I mean, no one can tell the difference anymore between what's real and what's fake.

Anyway, the point is, I can tell you all of this, right out in the open, because it doesn't matter who knows about it. They won't know whether to believe it or not.-

Environmental groups like Sierra Club should be held accountable for every single penny. How many of these organizations just virtue signal and never do anything real for nature?

And whatever did happen to solar power and other environmental push under Obama? whatever

Also, which organizations are actually doing something?

Who are the real environmentalists walking the talk?

Is there a possibility that you might be mistaken here? It's MY understanding that President Trump went through all the legalities to separate himself from all of his business interests beforehand so that they would go into effect the moment he was actually elected (don't forget, there's a two-month period between the Election and the Inauguration). Additionally, he takes a salary of only ONE dollar a year, and donates his entire salary to hospitals and Veterans' groups.

I sincerely doubt that he's "grifting" the Public by charging extra golf-cart fees.

The Deep State and those in DC have been using the tax payers as a slush fund for decades. This is why Obama's Admin instituted all of the environmental regulations, so that when a corporation was fined (which was often), the fine payment went into a fund that was never audited. So the regulations were used like an extortion racket, and the fines were used like a slush fund.

They also do this with 'foreign aid.' Who accounts for all of that money sent overseas? And then those same countries turn around and make 'donations' to 'foundations' (ie Clinton) and 'institutes' (ie McCain). The cartel in DC acts as a transnational organized criminal enterprise with them robbing blind the US taxpayer and laundering the proceeds through various govt programs and non-profits/NGOs.
