the Trump regime, Texas seems to be exploding weekly.

Please excuse me if I am in err, but I did read that chemical plants in Texas and perhaps nation wide (?) which could include refineries as well, no longer needed to report to the government the type and quantity of dangerous chemicals that are being used / stored at manufacturing facilities. Apparently, big money felt it too cumbersome to let the governmental agencies know what kinds of dangerous chemicals that they have at the facility - thereby making it much more hazardous for firefighters and those living in proximity to the facility. But, God bless big money. They won again, and now we have this ongoing mess happening in Texas.
