2. Speaking of the so-called "media meltdown," Trump's fantastical claim about illegal votes has become the Big Story of the Day — even on a day when Trump signed more of those papers, this time to re-start the once-blocked Dakota Access and Keystone XL pipelines. One of these projects is an assault on America's long-abused indigenous people, and — of significant importance — both will fuel the national addiction to oil at a moment when climate change is already threatening the world's fragile ecological balance. The Trump administration has also muzzled the Environmental Protection Agency — as he plunges rapidly into an aggressively pro-business agenda that will lower taxes on the rich and strip millions of working-class people of health insurance. None of the media or liberal clucking about Trump's seeming nervous breakdowns over the inaugural crowd size and now over the election results has impeded this stampede of bad public policy in any way.
