The False Promise of Green Energy

This gentleman says it well. The video runs about 45 minutes.

My good friend Dave Farnsworth mentions this morning:

Remember the anti-Trump whistleblower regarding the phone call to Ukraine that they insisted their name be kept secret. Thank you Congressman Adam “Shifty” Schiff.

But, Whistleblowers exposing the FBI and the Left’s crimes have their lives in danger and of course the media is right there trying to destroy their lives and the lives of their families.

Are there really Americans out there that don’t see this? Or, maybe they see this but somehow justify it?

Oh they see it and they justify it so many of them. They’ve been justifying attacks on Trump for close on a decade now. Now it’s gotten to the point where they’re doing the same thing with anybody who defends him or for that matter anybody not in lockstep with the far left. Witness what’s been going on with Ron DeSantis lately.

Me at Facebook just now regarding the chant of “trust the experts”

Are these the same experts that bundled so badly in their initial handling of the covid-19 virus while they were illegally doing gain of function research? The law against gain of function research was established because mere mortals recognized that the experts can screw up too. And so they did :

These are the same experts of course that came up with so much inaccurate and contradictory conclusions which of course were forced into policy because they happen to be attached to the government.

Then we have global warming.
Oops.
Global cooling.
Oops.
We’ll call it climate change that way we’re covered both ways and no matter which way it goes we can blame human activity and therefore control it.

Those are merely two examples of the miles long list of inaccuracies, and outright fabrications promulgated by the so-called experts.

All too often on the advice of experts we have caused death and destruction on a scale that would be impossible without the expert label and certainly would be impossible without the force of government behind that advice turned into law.

These days the experts are telling us that there are 247.3 sexes, that men can have babies, that the preborn are not human, (and therefore can be killed indiscriminately). And that eating bugs will improve the climate.

And finally, I note with interest that the experts are now telling us that for the continued survival of the planet we need to remove most humans from it. Of course, this too is nothing new, The Population Bomb was released, when, 1968, wasn’t it?

All of which leaves us with the question:
“Experts at what, precisely?”

The same people demanding Diane Feinstein resign because of her health issues are the same ones who went to the mat in support of Fetterman, and who are already campaigning in support of meat puppet Joe Biden.

Mind you, this is not a defense, I’m not suggesting by any means that Feinstein shouldn’t be replaced, …along with of course Fetterman, Pelosi and of course Biden.

The point here being, Democrats will make arguments that sound good at the time…(well, at least it sounded good to them at the time)… but will come back and bite them in the butt not too far into the future. This is one such case. Of course Democrats will tell you they don’t see it that way, but even when pressed on the matter, they cannot explain why they continue to support people who so clearly lack the ability to function.

The answer to the question of why they do that is rather simple. The unspoken consensus is that should the obvious be acknowledged, it will damage the ability of Democrats as a whole to maintain what they crave most:

Power.

Ironically, this is an admission on the part of the Democrats as a whole that these mental deficients are the best they have to offer the American people. Never mind that’s such people totally lack the ability to analyze the insane policies that they espouse… One needs only to look at the quality of life, the level of crime, the level of taxation, businesses escaping, and the number of people moving out of the districts they represent to understand the effect of such policies.

Their biggest usefulness is that they unquestioningly support such insanity.

This is the party of young ideas… Represented by a band of oxygenarians, who truly have no idea why Feinstein’s district is the hell hole that it has become, for example.

The truly insane part, is that people continue to pull the lever for them, simply because they have a D after their name, without any further analysis whatever.

I’ve been saying this for a couple of years now. It is time to end the FBI. It is time to break it up it eliminated salt the Earth to make sure it does not grow again.

I will close this one by observing that this is precisely the kind of abuse is that the founders vigorously warned us about from a strong central government.

Who are you going to blame for this one, Greta?

Writing in Nature Communications, the scientists say these weak layers—made up of historic biological material—made the area susceptible to failure in the face of earthquakes and other seismic activity.

They also highlight that the layers formed at a time when temperatures in Antarctica were up to 3°C warmer than they are today, when sea levels were higher and ice sheets much smaller than at present.
Wait a minute… I thought it was man and his use of fossil fuels that causes such things.

But these events that they’re talking about in this article predate Man by quite a while.

I know, let’s ask Al Gore. He’ll know all about it.

Oh, wait….

Have you ever noticed that every time the Democrats don’t get their way on spend, spend, spend, (in this case raising the debt ceiling so that they can spend more), they threaten social security?

Mind you, they don’t threaten Congressional paychecks. They don’t threaten the amount of spending that we’ve been doing on housing, feeding and attending to the healthcare needs of the millions of illegals they’ve allowed into the country. No, they threaten social security.

That should tell you quite a bit.

Raw, unanalyzed, and uncorroborated.” Those words from the Durham Report summed up one of the most damning investigations in the Justice Department’s history.

In the 305-page report released Monday, special counsel John Durham concluded that the Trump-Russia investigation was launched without a required minimal level of evidence and shattered a host of departmental standards. Let that sink in: The Justice Department — as well as the media that covered it — effectively shut down a duly elected presidency, based on what turned out to be a politically engineered hoax.

That would make anyone angry. Really angry. Trump-level angry.

The fact is, in this instance, Donald Trump was correct when he said he was the target of a political hitjob funded by the Clinton campaign and maintained by virtually every media outlet. There is a word for that: disinformation…

In the end, it is not a crime to be unethical or incompetent, so no charges will be filed as a result of the report. Durham clearly hopes that the belated transparency provided by his report will produce greater future accountability. That may be the only naive aspect of his findings.

Of course, the FBI promptly issued a statement that it has — once more — reformed itself in light of its failures. But who really believes this is unlikely to occur again?

Thing is, as Turley himself points out, it’s already happened again, in the form of the non-investigation of the Hunter Biden laptop, which we would not even have known about, absent a copy of it in the hands of Rudy Giuliani.

And by the way, speaking of Giuliani:

Rudy Giuliani, the former mayor of New York City and attorney for former President Donald Trump, is being sued in a lawsuit seeking $10 million in damages by a former employee accusing him of “sexual assault and harassment, wage theft, and other misconduct.”

And of course all of this is happening in the southern district of New York. Does anyone really believe this would be going on absent his involvement with the Biden laptop? Work that equation for a while.

And of course the mainstream media still can’t admit any of this. Apparently the feel is, if they admit they screwed up on this nobody will believe them on anything. Which is precisely, of course, what they deserve. To say nothing of the idea that if the mainstream media admits they screwed this one up, it’s damaging to the leftist power structure that they have endeavored so many years to support.

Turley suggests it’s not a crime to be incompetent.

I find that statement questionable at best on two levels. On its face, and on the question of, if this is mere incompetence we’re dealing with, here.

People… The truth is this: You don’t get this level of consistency over a period of years without planning, forethought, and competence. These people knew exactly what they were doing. In the graphic below is a list of people who were peddling the Russia collusion story and who should in reality be behind bars … Every single one of them… but at the least should never be believed again by anyone with an ounce of integrity. Never forget that these people were willing to put people in jail, and ruin lives knowing that they had absolutely nothing in terms of actual evidence.

You’ll never see the mainstream media covering this story with any  vigor, because what’s happened here is Durham given evidence that exonerates Donald Trump. What’s left of Fox network actually reported it, CNN danced around it somewhat.

So, in shorts, Durham has done is confirm what we already knew. The FBI is being used as the political enforcement arm of the Democrat party. The real question to my mind, who’s going to jail over this?

This has become cliche.
Democrats will invariably exceed the budget limits and then claim they didn’t know it was going to happen.

It’s almost equally cliche that it’s happening in California at this moment

OUT: DEFUND THE POLICE. IN: Oakland Baker and Activist Jen Angel Dies After Being Injured During a Violent Robbery.
Perhaps she “believed in a world that was safer and fairer for all,”
but she pursued policies that predictably produced the opposite.

From the article that Glenn links:

Jen Angel, owner and operator of Oakland bakery Angel Cakes, died on February 9 due to injuries sustained in a violent robbery. Angel was known not only as a maker of outstanding pies and treats, but also as a longtime organizer of the Anarchist Book Fair and a member of the Occupy
Wall Street movement. The East Bay activist, writer, anarchist, and
entrepreneur was declared to have lost all brain function by her medical team at Highland Hospital in Oakland on February 9. She was 48 yearsold.

So in other words, the very policies that she’s pursued came back to bite her, fatally.The last few years has been a wake-up call. The policies of the left over that time have proven themselves to be unarguable disaster.

The problem of course is that there are many leftists who deal in emotion more than they deal in fact. They are emotionally connected to those disastrous policies, and inexplicably remain totally convinced in their efficacy toward the stated goals. In this case, when reality caught up to her, it cost her her life.

Of course, there’s nothing new about this. Look closely at the constant bleating for socialism, and when they get it and it invariably fails, we are told “well, that wasn’t real socialism.” No matter how many times the cycle has gone round, no matter how many times leftist policy gets tested and fails disastrously… as in this case… it’s proponents never seem to learn the lesson being taught.And the situation here is no different at all. Observe, from the article:

Restorative justice, a framework Angel supported, is based on the idea that victims and perpetrators of harm should arbitrate and mediate to determine appropriate atonement and amendment, rather than defaulting to traditional forms of punishment including incarceration. In the statement, the family asks supporters to not “advance putting public resources into policing, incarceration, or other state violence that perpetuates the cycles of violence that resulted in this tragedy.”

Restorative justice? What is it precisely, that she felt was being restored?I say it again, no matter how many times this nonsense has failed, they continue to push for it Even when, as in this case, death occurs ….the naivete’ continues.

What we’re talking about is very close to a lesson about negotiating with evil that Neville Chamberlain learned back in the day.

And yes, I said evil.

The reality is that there is evil in the world, and there is no negotiating with it. Tragic situations like this occur when that reality is ignored.In Oakland these days, at least as of 2021 which was the most recent statistics I could find on the subject, your chances of being a victim of a violent crime are approximately one in 80. When you’re dealing with property crimes only, it comes out in the neighborhood of one in 17.Those kind of figures are a disaster for any society. They were brought about by the easy on crime policies being pursued in California and in most major cities these days.

The problem of course is that evil benefits because that kind of naivete’ is a constant.

Vince Foster didn’t shoot himself twice in the back of the head with a gun that wouldn’t fire.

Ancient political history?

Possibly. But we are about to be exposed to a level of criminality and power lust unlike anything that we have allowed ourselves to admit to previously this, thanks to the investigation of the crime family. Our natural instinct is to believe the best in everybody and so the natural tendency is going to be to pass off the reports of criminality that we are about to be exposed to as exaggeration more outright falsehood.

Thing is, that’s very difficult indeed with the history of the clintons as a political backdrop. I will suggest to you that with that as the standard there is nothing we should put past the Democrats of today, especially when we view the history of the thing from then until now.

The evidence is mounting, and the noose is closing. Brace yourself.
