Climate and Capitalism: a Match Made in Hell
Climate and Capitalism: a Match Made in Hell - ELIZABETH NICKSON"Climate Hysteria is the cover for the biggest land rush in human history
It always means productive activity is shut down, whether via resource set-asides, (necessary resources) or in western democracies, human activity.
- Three energy weapon laser beams were filmed starting the fire in Lahaina. This of course, is unprovable but the town is filled with ex-military and the suspicious. Imagine the money bomb waiting to be scooped up rebuilding one of Hawaii’s main tourist towns.
- Same story in the central valley of California. 2030 wants cattle off the land, so why not burn acres upon acres of feed. Cows don’t need grass feed, they need protein mush made in a lab for the few years left they will be allowed on the planet.
It is becoming, these days, to be more sensible to consider the paranoid, until they are proved wrong.
But the climate hysteria seems to be working.- For the last several weeks I have been swimming off a rocky beach and wondering where all the people were. Admittedly, it’s a hike in, but it’s gorgeous and while sparsely used, I usually meet a dozen or so people even in winter. Then I realized they were watching the news which was full-on weather catastrophe and DON’T GO OUT IN IT. The broadsheet located in the nearby capital city runs four or five "climate catastrophe" pieces every single day...

- There "climate mitigation" literally trades on the misery of the young, who pay increased rents, compliance fees, new requirements, engineers say; and it attaches an entire battalion of green compliance officers who cruise the region for infractions.
- In my area, "green-development" requirements add $1,000 to the monthly rent of a one-bedroom apartment and despite the province only being 6 percent developed, opening up land for new housing is greeted by lawfare and protests...
January 6 Committee Destroyed Records, Videos; Trump's Rights Violated
January 6 Committee Destroyed Records, Videos; Trump's Rights Violated:
The January 6 Committee defied a demand last year by incoming Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) that it preserve all of its records, evidence, and transcripts, and has destroyed much of what it collected over more than a year of investigation.
Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) made that revelation to Fox News Digital on Tuesday, also noting that the committee had not looked into possible security lapses at the Capitol, and that much of the material the committee did preserve was disorganized.

Andy Ngo v. Antifa: The Jury Has Reached a Verdict and It's Causing an Uproar -
Mia Cathell"At the conclusion of journalist Andy Ngo's multi-day civil trial against Rose City Antifa, whose far-left militant members brutally beat the investigative reporter when he went undercover to expose Antifa's extremist activities on the riot-torn streets of Portland, a 12-person jury reached a verdict in the case Tuesday evening, reportedly finding both of the defendants not liable for all claims.

The Post Millennial's senior editor—represented by attorney Harmeet Dhillon's nonprofit Center for American Liberty—sought almost $1 million in damages in a lawsuit accusing the co-defendants of assault, battery, theft, and intentional infliction of emotional distress over a series of violent Antifa attacks beginning in 2019, when Ngo was hospitalized for a brain hemorrhage.In closing statements, defense counsel Michelle Burrows told the jurors that not only does she self-identify as an "anti-fascist," she strongly declared, "I am Antifa," and insisted upon making herself an "I am Antifa" t-shirt, which the activist attorney said she would wear after the trial...
Burrows also told jurors that she "will remember each one of their faces."...

The Left Careens Down the Road Toward Totalitarianism - TheBlaze:
The Democrat Party is intent on destroying our nation from the inside out. And while the leftists might not come bearing physical weapons, they do have a more insidious kind of attack: ideas.
“It’s the battle of ideas. People are persuaded by socialism and Marxism. Why? Because they never produce what they say they’re going to produce. They produce horror, they produce death, they produce impoverishment. But the promises are endless,” Mark Levin explains.

Distrust the science - by Tom Knighton"...But The Science (TM) is something different in this day and age.
- Now, it’s little more than a technocratic authoritarian push; an opportunity for some to use their lofty status to push for their own political desires to be manifested as political action.
We were told to trust The Science, but is The Science trustworthy?

White House disinformation clip
"In 2021, I remember reporting on the words of senior political leaders.
Of course, I knew that people like president Biden and prime minister Johnston were not doctors or scientists.
However, I assumed they would be directly advised by the best their respective countries had to offer. Having assumed these leaders were well informed, I often passed on what they had to say.
Well, this video is just one example of how they got things wrong, meaning in turn I was wrong.
The age of deference has well and truly passed.
Runaway Spending and the Next Recession | City Journal
Runaway Spending and the Next Recession | City Journal - Stephen Miran
- Eating Our Seed Corn - Runaway spending is eroding America’s ability to respond to future economic downturns.
- Another cause of spending increases is the interest burden from servicing the national debt, which has already widened the deficit by almost $150 billion.
- For instance, the Biden administration expanded the definition of sport utility vehicles to include luxury sedans so that more cars would qualify for the expanded electric vehicle tax credits introduced by the highly inflationary Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). By playing language games to ensure that even $80,000 luxury sedans qualify for $7,500 taxpayer-funded credits...

Chip Roy urges showdown over DHS funding, border security - TheBlaze:
Republican Rep. Chip Roy of Texas is urging his colleagues to leverage Congress' power of the purse to obtain much-needed steps toward border security.
"No border security, no funding," Roy wrote in a letter. "Simply put, no member of Congress should agree to fund a federal agency at war with his state and people. We have a moral obligation to protect our states, our nation, and, importantly, the migrant children getting abused from the disaster transpiring at our southern border."

While the actual shooting is not displayed on tape, The Daily Mail notes that photos from the scene show Robertson lying on his back, dead on the sidewalk in front of his house.
Attorney Marina Medvin notes that the FBI is almost certainly not telling the full story. She reveals that Robertson is morbidly obese and would have a hard time effectively carrying out an assassination attempt.
“Something is off about this Utah man story.” Medvin says...
