Middleboro Review and so on

Friday Afternoon News Updates: Trump the Paper Tiger — 5/1/26 It’s Friday, and the receipts are piling up. Ben Meiselas and MeidasTouch Network Hi all, Ben here. It’s Friday, May 1st, International Workers’ Day, also known as May Day. Let me give a quick shoutout to all the hardworking people fighting for a better future and to all those taking to the streets in protest.

  It’s official: Donald Trump has signed the bill overturning a 20-year ban on toxic mining near the Boundary Waters — the most visited wilderness in America. But this fight is not over! This is just the beginning. It will now start a permitting process that could be deeply and permanently detrimental to the future of the Boundary Waters. It’s also a reminder that every election matters. Hope is not entirely lost, though. Our SEEC Members will continue fighting back during the extensive permitting process and holding the Trump Administration accountable — because we know Republicans won’t. That’s why we need Democrats in those seats and especially more climate champions in Congress to take back the House this year. Will you please rush in a donation right now to help us continue fighting to protect the Boundary Waters today?
