Wyoming governor reveals troubling lack of knowledge - CO2 Coalition

Wyoming governor reveals troubling lack of knowledge - CO2 Coalition
Press Release 2023 12 11 60 Minutes
"ARLINGTON, Va. — Wyoming Governor Mark Gordon has proposed taking the Cowboy State to negative net zero by building vast, industrial-scale wind projects and facilities to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and store it.
  • To date, the Governor has not provided cost estimates of such massive projects. 
  • Nor has he projected how much these proposals would add to the price of electricity for the state’s residents.
Appearing on CBS’s 60 Minutes recently, Gov. Gordon exposed a lack of knowledge about climate change and Wyoming. 
The governor is apparently unaware of some very important scientific facts that should drive the policy decisions:
  • Heat waves peaked in Wyoming in the 1920s and 30s.
  • Average maximum annual temperatures have been in decline for more than 80 years...

How novel! Tennessee locks up criminals, and crime drops | Blaze Media

Something novel happens when you lock up more repeat violent offenders for longer. Believe it or not, crime begins to drop.

Many Republicans who bought into the lie of “criminal justice reform” seemed to have forgotten this lesson from the 1990s, as we enjoyed a decades-long decrease in crime. But as crime surged again in recent years following the proliferation of weak sentencing laws, the trend is swinging back in states that learned the lesson from the Koch-funded jailbreak agenda.

President Biden just pledged to shut down 60% of America's electric power

President Biden just pledged to shut down 60% of America's electric power - Stephen Moore
"The Biden administration made two virtue-signaling proclamations at last week’s COP28 conference in Dubai that it says will help save the planet from climate change.
The policies aren’t likely to change the planet’s temperature by even one-tenth of a degree, but they might just destroy the 21st-century American industrial economy as we know it.
  • First, Team Biden announced it will stop production of all new coal plants in the United States.
  • Vice President Kamala Harris trumpeted the next day new rules to “sharply reduce methane from the oil and natural gas industry.”...Eliminating methane is a de facto ban on natural gas power plants.
Here is the most sinister part of this story that no one in the Biden administration is telling you: Eradicating coal and natural gas plants will ravage America’s electric power capacity.
These regulations will cause rolling blackouts and brownouts across the country, much like we’ve already seen in California — America’s forerunner of radical anti-fossil fuel policies...
Upward of 60% of America’s electric power generation will go away — and soon...

F-35 Fighter Plane Shoots Down a Cruise Missile: A Sharp Lesson from Israel is a Setback for China

F-35 Fighter Plane Shoots Down a Cruise Missile: A Sharp Lesson from Israel is a Setback for China

American technology is scoring big against Iran-backed threats in the Red Sea region, and it’s bad news for China.  

You know the U.S. Navy destroyer USS Carney was in the news again Sunday, shooting down drones launched from Yemen’s Houthi rebels against merchant shipping in the Red Sea. This crew has been taking out drones and missiles supplied by Iran for weeks now, and their tally is over two dozen destroyed so far.

Javier Milei Takes Office in Argentina, and His First Move Immediately Triggers All the Right People

Javier Milei Takes Office in Argentina, and His First Move Immediately Triggers All the Right People - By Bonchie 
"For the first time in decades, Argentina is no longer ruled by socialists. 
Libertarian-leaning President Javier Milei was officially sworn in on Sunday, marking a major turning point in the country's battle against hyperinflation and economic decline.
  • In November, Argentina reached 183 percent inflation for 2023, impoverishing around 40 percent of the country, a reality that helped sweep Milei into power. 
  • Now, he's taking action, with his first move in office being an executive order that slashes the number of government ministries from 21 to nine. 
Among those put on the chopping block was the ministry of "women, genders, and diversity," a move he recently telegraphed in his criticisms of "social justice."
  • It didn't take long for the hand-wringing to begin in the press. 
PBS News published an article dripping with sanctimony, claiming that Milei's ideas are "outlandish" and "radical." 
What makes that so ironic is that the very same article admits that Argentina is in dire straits...

Pro-Palestinian Radicals Target Symbols of Christianity

Pro-Palestinian Radicals Target Symbols of Christianity

Radical pro-Palestinian demonstrations appear to have developed a new tactic: they are targeting Christmas tree lightings across the country, and other Christian symbols, in addition to symbols of Israel and Jewish institutions.

The latest example was Friday’s protest in Los Angeles, where pro-Palestinian radicals marched from a fundraiser for President Joe Biden to an area where there are several synagogues. They sprayed anti-Israel graffiti on the walls opposite the synagogues, and also vandalized a local church.

Two heroes of the eco-loon-left, concoct conflicting, death-to-civilization schemes!----- The disagreement between two climate scientists that will decide our future

The disagreement between two climate scientists that will decide our future - Robert ChrisHugh Hunt
"Getting to net zero emissions by mid-century is conventionally understood as humanity’s best hope for keeping Earth’s surface temperature (already 1.2°C above its pre-industrial level) from increasing well beyond 1.5°C – potentially reaching a point at which it could cause widespread societal breakdown.
At least one prominent climate scientist, however, disagrees.
  • James Hansen of Columbia University in the US published a paper with colleagues in November which claims temperatures are set to rise further and faster than the predictions of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). In his view, the 1.5°C target is dead. He also claims net zero is no longer sufficient to prevent warming of more than 2°C. To regain some control over Earth’s rising temperature, Hansen supports accelerating the retirement of fossil fuels, greater cooperation between major polluters that accommodates the needs of the developing world and, controversially, intervening in Earth’s “radiation balance” (the difference between incoming and outgoing light and heat) to cool the planet’s surface...
  • Michael Mann from the University of Pennsylvania in the US and another titan of climate science, spoke for many when he dismissed solar radiation management as “potentially very dangerous” and a “desperate action” motivated by the “fallacy … that large-scale warming will be substantially greater than (Mann's) current-generation models project”.
Their positions are irreconcilable. So who is right – Hansen or Mann? (Answer? Neither!)

'Unspeakable barbarity': Steven Spielberg finally speaks out about Hamas' attacks against Israel on Oct. 7 | Blaze Media

Legendary filmmaker Steven Spielberg finally decided to speak out about Hamas' terrorist attack against Israel on October 7. The comments surfaced in a feature published by the Shoah Foundation earlier this month.

The Shoah Foundation was founded by Spielberg in 1994, and its mission is to "give opportunity to survivors and witnesses to the Shoah — the genocide of the Jews — to tell their own stories in their own words in audio-visual interviews, preserve their testimonies, and make them accessible for research, education, and outreach for the betterment of humankind in perpetuity."

Who Is Sara Biden? Joe’s In-Law Emerges as Central Figure in Foreign Cash Deals - RealClearInvestigations

Who Is Sara Biden? Joe’s In-Law Emerges as Central Figure in Foreign Cash Deals - By Paul Sperry 
  • Trouble has followed Sara Catherine Jones since she married into the Biden family almost three decades ago.
"Not long after her 1995 wedding to Jim Biden, she took a job with one of his brother Joe’s Senate donors, who later accused her of “fraud” and “unjust enrichment,” according to court records reviewed by RealClearInvestigations. 
In the years since, she and her husband have been accused of reneging on debts and failing to pay their taxes, court and property records show. 
Like their nephew, first son Hunter Biden, they have reportedly sold the promise of access to their powerful relative to companies, several of which have gone bankrupt, some of which are tied to foreign countries hostile to the United States.
  • Now, Sara Jones Biden has emerged as a key figure in the mushrooming Biden foreign influence-peddling scandal...
