"There are no proven risks to public health were the temperature of the planet to warm a couple of degrees.

Democrats stranded on melting narrative.
"The Democrats' narrative used to be of colossal proportions when it calved off from reality a few short years ago.

Won't you help the stranded Democrats?
Please help to fight the political climate change.

Gavin Newsom’s blessing may assure the bills will become law, thus offering the latest affirmation of H.L. Mencken’s infamous quotation: “Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard.”

“We know that millions of tenants are one rent increase away from not being able to afford food, healthcare or even becoming homeless,” said Assemblyman David Chiu (D–San Francisco)

State Department Under Pressure Over Christopher Steele Contacts | The Daily Caller:

Image result for Christopher Steele DossierThe State Department has largely avoided scrutiny from GOP-led investigations of the Steele dossier, but that changed this week with the release of notes that a State Department official took during an October 2016 meeting with dossier author Christopher Steele.
In letters this week to Sec. of State Mike Pompeo, GOP Sens. Chuck Grassley of Iowa, Ron Johnson of Wisconsin and Lindsey Graham of South Carolina pressed Pompeo for details about the Oct. 11, 2016 meeting, which was held at Foggy Bottom between Steele and Kathleen Kavalec, the deputy assistant secretary of state for European and Eurasian affairs.
Steele, a former British spy, was investigating President Donald Trump and his campaign on behalf of the Clinton campaign and DNC.
