She tried to set herself apart as nothing like Trump, but failed miserably.

Steve Williams
What are you really saying, Steve?


Saturday, March 30th 2019 at 11:06PM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
If you watched the full hour Ron, you would have seen how she had someone planted in the audience to be rude to one of the other guests. After reprimanding that person she went on to pat herself on the back and congratulate herself for not being like Trump. On cue, all the MSNBC folk the next day just lapped it all up.

Sunday, March 31st 2019 at 1:06AM
Steve Williams
The guest that got insulted was a plant too. It was a pretting disgusting display all around.

Sunday, March 31st 2019 at 1:10AM
Steve Williams
Steve, let us talk for a moment about the video report that you have right in front of you right NOW!

Did you notice in this Video report, about the levels of CO2 levels, starting in 1979 to 1989?




Monday, April 1st 2019 at 10:05AM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
I watced the full hour Ron. CO2 levels from 1979-1989 were not a memorable part of it.

Monday, April 1st 2019 at 10:26AM
Steve Williams
I do remember Ocasio thought there was something special about her birth year. But she seems to have learned nothing about her infancy.

Don't you give a damn that we are breathing and eating more pollutants now then when, we did back in the 80's, Steve?


Monday, April 1st 2019 at 2:05PM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
So do something about the world's population Ron, since you give a damn.

Steve, I asked you this question: Don't you give a damn that we are breathing and eating more pollutants now then when, we did back in the 80's, Steve?

I don't see the connection but first answer my first question to you.


Tuesday, April 2nd 2019 at 10:31AM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
Define "give a damn" Ron. The FACT is that I can't change the world's population, and that's why I can't change the carbon parts per million in the earth's atmosphere. You can "give a damn" all you want Ron and you can't change it either.

Tuesday, April 2nd 2019 at 10:54AM
Steve Williams
I am talking abut stopping the rate of pollutants that MAN is doing to his planet by relaxing regulations that allows man to put more pollutants in the Air we breathe and the fresh water that we all drink by the TRUMP Administration and passed last year by this Republican controlled house and the senate.

All of this is cause by MAN and YES, we can do something about that on a governmental level, by the power of the VOTE.

When I said, Don't you give a damn, I 'am talking about your level of concern about what man made pollutants that you are breathing every time you take a breath of AIR or drinking each time you drink water. YES WE CAN do a lot when the masses of the American stay together on this topic of Clean AIR and CLEAN WATER. "YES WE CAN" because our lives depends on it , Steve don't you give a DAMN about that?




Thursday, April 4th 2019 at 10:56AM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
No Ron, I don't give a damn about something that's nothing but political hype.

Thursday, April 4th 2019 at 6:19PM
Steve Williams
So, you think by keeping our air and water safe for our children and grand-children is political hype to you, then you are problem.



Thursday, April 4th 2019 at 9:17PM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
Ocasio is political hype. That's what I said Ron. Climate change is just one more FAKE election issue that the country will prove it knows is a hoax, along with Russia, the President's tax returns, guns, in 2020.

Friday, April 5th 2019 at 9:12AM
Steve Williams
What do you Steve care about Steve, do you care about breathing Clean AIR?

Do you care about drinking Clean Water Steve?


Friday, April 5th 2019 at 9:41AM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
Clean air and clean water is desirable Ron, and I guarantee we will have both 12 years from now.

Friday, April 5th 2019 at 10:33AM
Steve Williams
Refresh my memory Ron. When was the Waters of the United States bill passed?

Friday, April 5th 2019 at 6:20PM
Steve Williams
I will Refresh your memory to this question that you did not answer: How? Not by taken the lead from this administration as they took the actions to relax the EPA standards for clean water and clean AIR YOU breathe.

How in the hell can you guarantee that we will have both clean air and 12 years from now when TRUMP is letting big corporations put more pollutants in our water and Air then ever before, now how can you guarantee that Steve?

Answer that question Steve.


Saturday, April 6th 2019 at 11:35AM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
I can guarantee that because clean air and water doesn't depend on the Waters of the United States Obama order Ron.

Saturday, April 6th 2019 at 3:06PM
Steve Williams
The oligarch's don't give a damn about the common people of this country, you have been GASLIGHTED

Now "HOW" can you guarantee that Steve, when Trump relaxed the EPA standards for clean water and clean AIR YOU breathe?


Saturday, April 6th 2019 at 6:49PM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
If it was that important Ron, Congress would pass a new law to supercede the Clean Air Act. Presidents giveth executive orders and Presidents taketh away executive orders. You just mad Obama's legacy is turned to dust.

Saturday, April 6th 2019 at 7:19PM
Steve Williams
So, you are OKAY about knowing you are Drinking more pollutants and breathing And breathing more pollutants, you are OK with that Steve?



Saturday, April 6th 2019 at 9:45PM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
I am asking you Steve and not a report, I am asking "YOU" this question. So, are "YOU" OKAY about knowing you are Drinking more pollutants and breathing more pollutants since Trump relaxed the EPA standards for clean water and clean AIR YOU breathe? Are you OK with That, Steve?


Sunday, April 7th 2019 at 2:40PM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
I have no idea what you're talking about Ron.

Sunday, April 7th 2019 at 9:31PM
Steve Williams
So, are "YOU" OKAY about knowing you are Drinking more pollutants and breathing more pollutants since Trump relaxed the EPA standards for clean water and clean AIR YOU breathe? Are you OK with That, Steve?

You understand that don't you?


Monday, April 8th 2019 at 8:56AM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
I am not drinking more pollutants Ron.

Monday, April 8th 2019 at 11:30AM
Steve Williams
If, you are drinking TAP water, thanks to Trump, yes you are... Now Thank Trump for that, OK Steve.

Now are you OK with that Steve?


Monday, April 8th 2019 at 12:46PM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
I drink water from Bethany Spring, Diamond Spring, and Roaring Spring, bottled in Ephrata, PA. We have very good water here Ron with an ideal Ph.

Monday, April 8th 2019 at 2:58PM
Steve Williams
Keep in mind Steve, I did mention TAP Water, not bottle waters. Now let us take a look at The Cuyahoga River in Cleveland Ohio.

The Cuyahoga River is famous – or infamous – for having caught fire numerous times since 1868, most recently in June 1969. Flowing through the Cleveland, Ohio area, the Cuyahoga River, because it runs through a congested urban environment, has been subjected to numerous forms of pollution, particularly industrial waste, which has made it flammable at times. Interestingly, the plight of the Cuyahoga River helped promote in the late 1960s the ecological movement across the U.S., whose motto was “Ecology Now.” This joint fervor led to passage of the Clean Water Act of 1972.

Steve, I am glad you don't near The Great Mississippi water. Steve, Pollution of rivers is also widespread in the United States. The mighty Mississippi River, also called the Big Muddy, because its waters are generally brown, mostly from sediments. But the Big Muddy holds much more than mud, for its level of pollutants is great. In fact, it is sometimes called the Colon of America. In addition to sewage, perhaps the worst pollutants in the river are agricultural in nature. At the mouth of the Mississippi in the Gulf of Mexico lies a so-called Dead Zone of 6,000 to 8,000 square miles. This has been created by the Mississippi’s high amount of nitrogen-based fertilizer run-off, which upsets the food chain, creating very low oxygen levels in coastal waters.

The solution to pollution is dilution. This has been the mantra of people who would like to think water pollution can be avoided simply by adding enough water to the muck. The trouble is, there are too many people and too many factories in the world and not enough fresh water. In fact, one of the world’s biggest problems is a lack of clean drinking water.

Thanks Trump for relaxing the EPA Rules on corporations polluting freshwater, Thanks Trump.


Monday, April 8th 2019 at 9:15PM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
Thanks for agreeing with me Ron.

So do something about the world's population Ron, since you give a damn.

"The trouble is, there are too many people and too many factories in the world..."

Monday, April 8th 2019 at 10:09PM
Steve Williams
Steve you are an ERROR. I don't agree with you at all. Now, since you do agree with this statement I found through doing a little research: "The trouble is, there are too many people and too many factories in the world..."

Then why is the hell would YOU back up Trump that wants to relax the standards for clean water, for?


Tuesday, April 9th 2019 at 8:17AM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
We have clean water Ron, took care of that many year ago. When I was a kid we used to go down to the Schuylkill river to fish and canoe. The water and the banks of the river were FILTHY with coal residue. The only fish we caught were trash fish. Now that same river is sparkling clean, with parks and trails. It's beautiful and that's how it will stay as long as our population doesn't increase. But you want to let in the entire third world. YOU are the threat Ron, not Trump.

Tuesday, April 9th 2019 at 9:22AM
Steve Williams
I will take your word on that but I was giving you examples of two major rivers running from the North end of the country to the most southern tip, running throughout this country where Millions of our fellow Americans don't have excess to the Schuylkill river but they do have excess to both of these rivers that I mentioned.

You claim that the Schuylkill river was cleaned up from FILTHY with coal residue, can't you see that the relaxing of such clean up laws mean that that coal plant can put higher levels of FILTH in that very same waters that you drink from, Thanks to Trump relaxing EPA laws on clean water and clean AIR, which will save them millions and will poison you and your family, in the near future, Don't you give a damn about that?



Tuesday, April 9th 2019 at 10:39AM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
You come across as not knowing a thing about these regulations Ron. Explain them to me.

Tuesday, April 9th 2019 at 12:19PM
Steve Williams
Everyone knows that the Mississippi is our largest river. It drains most of the country. Are you advocating to stop using fertilizers? Stop growing food?

Tuesday, April 9th 2019 at 12:22PM
Steve Williams
I advocate for the cleaning up of our fresh waters, water ways Steve.

Now, since you do agree with this statement I found through doing a little research: "The trouble is, there are too many people and too many factories in the world..."

Then why is the hell would YOU back up Trump that wants to relax the standards for clean water, for?



Tuesday, April 9th 2019 at 8:23PM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
I was the one who pointed out the root problem, population. You have no answer to that Ron.

Tuesday, April 9th 2019 at 11:03PM
Steve Williams
Don't try that weak attempt to sidestep this issue, with unrelated topics like population because Trump did not relax The EPA on population, now did he?

What Trump did was to relax the levels that Big Corporation's can put more pollutants in the remaining fresh waters for the people of The United States of America. Don't you give a damn about that?


Wednesday, April 10th 2019 at 9:12PM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
You don't know what Trump did. You've been neuromarketed Ron.

Wednesday, April 10th 2019 at 9:48PM
Steve Williams
Steve, What Trump did was to relax the levels that Big Corporation's can put more pollutants in the remaining fresh waters for the people of The United States of America. Don't you give a damn about that?


Wednesday, April 10th 2019 at 10:08PM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
WELL DO YOU?


Wednesday, April 10th 2019 at 10:09PM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
Why did he do that Ron?

Thursday, April 11th 2019 at 10:39AM
Steve Williams
What is the matter Steve, why can't you acknowledge my question that I put before you.

"Steve, What Trump did was to relax the levels that Big Corporation's can put more pollutants in the remaining fresh waters for the people of The United States of America. Don't you give a damn about that?"


Thursday, April 11th 2019 at 12:06PM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
Let's hear the truth first. Why did Trump do that?

Thursday, April 11th 2019 at 12:47PM
Steve Williams
STILL WON'T Acknowledge my question that I put before you. First Acknowledge my question: "Steve, What Trump did was to relax the levels that Big Corporation's can put more pollutants in the remaining fresh waters for the people of The United States of America.

Don't you give a damn about that?" Is this question above your basic programming?






Thursday, April 11th 2019 at 1:03PM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
I don't believe your statement Ron. I'm waiting for you to tell me the truth about the Waters of the United States.

Thursday, April 11th 2019 at 1:08PM
Steve Williams
These are the FACTS, since you asked

Since his first days in office, President Trump has made eliminating federal regulations a priority. His administration, with help from Republicans in Congress, has targeted environmental rules it sees as overly burdensome to the fossil fuel industry, including major Obama-era policies aimed at fighting climate change.

A New York Times analysis, based on research from Harvard Law School, Columbia Law School and other sources, counts nearly 80 environmental rules on Mr. Trump illuminated. WOW!!! Do you give a damn about that?


Thursday, April 11th 2019 at 1:34PM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
I give a damn that the only thing you've done Ron is parrot. Give the folks here on BIA at least a rudimentary explanation of the EPA rule you're talking about.

Thursday, April 11th 2019 at 6:48PM
Steve Williams
Steve, Trump's rules targeted for reversal so far include key Obama-era efforts to curb planet-warming greenhouse gas emissions, as well as broader air and water pollution controls and protections for threatened animals and habitats. The Trump administration has, in many instances, pared back these regulations in favor of more expansive energy extraction policies — often as a direct response to petitions from oil, gas and coal companies. Mr. Trump has argued that supporting the fossil fuel industry strengthens the economy.

So, their goes fresh clean waters for the oil, gas and coal companies. Steve, you can thank Trump, for that!!!


Thursday, April 11th 2019 at 9:11PM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
So they say. Did you read what the EPA says? Do you know what a prairie pothole is? If you did, you would know it has nothing to do with clean water. Do you know what percent of California's original wetlands remain? You do not. When was the last time you got out of the city Ron?

Thursday, April 11th 2019 at 10:49PM
Steve Williams
Did Trump relax and target key Obama-era efforts to curb planet-warming greenhouse gas emissions, as well as broader air and water pollution controls and protections for threatened animals and habitats? Did that happen?


Friday, April 12th 2019 at 8:07AM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
I don't know Ron. Did Obama stop prairie potholes from being filled?

Friday, April 12th 2019 at 8:47AM
Steve Williams
You're a hypocrite Ron. YOU. are responsible for climate change and no one else.

Saturday, April 13th 2019 at 1:01AM
Steve Williams
You are the worst polluter on the planet Ron. Stop blaming everyone else and correct your evil ways. Stop using electricity and putting out all that garbage every week. Stop driving and stop eating then get back to me when you've cleaned up your act.

Saturday, April 13th 2019 at 9:58AM
Steve Williams
Please, I pay my tax's for garbage pick up every week, just like you do Steve. Did you see the link Steve and if you did see the link, did you see the actions Trump took?





Saturday, April 13th 2019 at 10:09AM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
I saw the link Ron and it's not about clean water is it? But where does your garbage go? Every week my neighbor puts out 4 or 5 large garbage bags. They've got 3 people there. I put out 1 tall kitchen bag. Where does garbage for 320 million Americans go every week. What's the law about that Ron?



Saturday, April 13th 2019 at 1:42PM
Steve Williams
Ron, why would you claim to know where I get my water from and how I use it?

Saturday, April 13th 2019 at 6:41PM
Steve Williams
For washing things I use well water, which has low Ph from the mineral content, not acid rain. For drinking, cooking, and watering house plants I use bottled spring water. I don't wash my car but I'm not surprised you do Ron, environmental activist that you are.

Saturday, April 13th 2019 at 6:46PM
Steve Williams
I 'am glad to see that you can afford $4.09 for the 1- gallon for water, consider yourself Blessed. I know that you would not be HAPPY to lose that blessing because I don't pay that much for GAS.




Saturday, April 13th 2019 at 8:55PM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
You'd be nuts to pay that. I get mine for $0.85.

Sunday, April 14th 2019 at 2:39AM
Steve Williams
I am talking about a gallon of water, you pay $0.85 for it, where, show me a link to where you paid that price for a gallon of water, can you do that on your next reply?


Sunday, April 14th 2019 at 11:10AM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
I buy it by the case and the young ones take it out to the car for me too.

Sunday, April 14th 2019 at 2:58PM
Steve Williams
They're open now Ron, what did you find out?

Monday, April 15th 2019 at 9:38AM
Steve Williams

This link is showing me nothing about the cost of a gallon of bottle waters.

Steve, did you know that, According to the American Water Works Association tap water (and all the chemicals in it) on the average costs only $0.004 a gallon. To show you the price difference between the cost of water that comes out of your tap and what you pay for bottled water look at it like this: With the amount of money you paid for one gallon of that bottled water from Walmart, you could have bought 195 gallons of tap water.

The poorest among us can't afford to buy Bottle Water so. Why would you want to support this President roll back of Obama's clean Air and Clean water restrictions allowing big corporations, like the fossil fuel industry to pollute our fresh water just because you can afford to buy bottled water, WOW!!!

This is why Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is fighting for, the poor and the middle classes of American's. She is talking how the rich is robbing the poor and you are apart of that theft, you are the problem, do you gave a damn about that?

Steve, you really, really don't give a damn about the poor, do you?

Monday, April 15th 2019 at 10:35AM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
Steve, Climate Change effect all of us on this planet even you can afford it or not. Do you give a damn about your own existence and the existence of your family members?


Monday, April 15th 2019 at 10:38AM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
The rich are not robbing the poor. Your water is fine and if it's not the price is insignificant. Don't skimp on your health Ron.

Monday, April 15th 2019 at 3:54PM
Steve Williams
I see that you still can't answer a simple question: Steve, Climate Change effects all of us on this planet even if you can afford it or not. Do you give a damn about your own existence and the existence of your family members?

Steve, how can the water be fine when Trump is letting big corporations, such as the fossil fuel industry to put more pollutants in our fresh water just by the stroke of his pen? WHY do you support such a effort?

YOUR STATEMENT: The rich are not robbing the poor.

MY REPLY: THAT IS A LIE AND YOU KNOW THAT TO BE TRUE STEVE. Is it true that the rich corporations, pay less percentage wise less tax's, then the workers they employee?




Monday, April 15th 2019 at 7:06PM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
Do you want to talk about clean water Ron? You haven't shown any knowledge of that subject, no comprehension about the rule change. Or do you want to talk about eating the rich, killing the goose that laid the golden egg?

Monday, April 15th 2019 at 7:23PM
Steve Williams
1. Climate change is a fraud Ron.
2. Trump's not allowing more pollution.
3. No.

Monday, April 15th 2019 at 9:53PM
Steve Williams
What's the Waters of the United States rule Ron? I've been waiting all this time and nothing but crickets.

Monday, April 15th 2019 at 9:56PM
Steve Williams
Just look at the devastations by shifting Weather patterns at is happening right here to this country right before your damn eye's Steve, can't you see that?




Tuesday, April 16th 2019 at 11:25AM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
I've told you many times Ron, our government and others have been engineering the weather, probably for about 15 years now. You and they both are GUILTY of weaponizing the weather.

Tuesday, April 16th 2019 at 11:36AM
Steve Williams

So, why do you think our government is weaponizing the weather against it's own people for, Steve?


Tuesday, April 16th 2019 at 12:55PM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
Why did our government experiment on its own troops when developing nuclear weapons Ron?

Wednesday, April 17th 2019 at 12:54AM
Steve Williams
I am talking about the issue of why do you think our government is weaponizing the weather against it's own people for, Steve?

Tell me what you think Steve?




Wednesday, April 17th 2019 at 3:50AM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
What do you think about why our government is weaponizing the weather against it's own people for, Steve?

Tell me what you think Steve?

Sending me to a 52 page report is not telling me what you think, SORRY Steve but that 💩 won't work here.


Wednesday, April 17th 2019 at 10:23AM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
Think about how science works Ron. Think back to Jr. High.

Wednesday, April 17th 2019 at 11:03AM
Steve Williams
Steve, what do you think is the reason why our government is weaponizing the weather against it's own people for, Since you brought it up?





Wednesday, April 17th 2019 at 12:44PM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
It's part of their R&D Ron. I guess you forgot how science works.

Wednesday, April 17th 2019 at 2:24PM
Steve Williams
I see that you can't answer anything that I have asked you today. Again always there you go like a thief in the night running away from the simplest of questions about something YOU SAID.

NOW telling me and the people hear on Black In America why do you think is the reason why our government is weaponizing the weather against it's own people for, Since you brought it up?

Steve, again these are your word:

I've told you many times Ron, our government and others have been engineering the weather, probably for about 15 years now. You and they both are GUILTY of weaponizing the weather.
