Eco madness may be reason for disastrous Boeing 737 MAX safety issues
"...Air travel, which accounts for 2 percent of global emissions, has become the great bogeyman for climate alarmists, sparking a backlash against airlines.
...No one has said it explicitly yet, but this relentless pressure to reduce emissions appears to have been a significant factor in the disastrous safety failures of the Boeing 737 MAX aircraft, which resulted in two fatal crashes in the past year, claiming 346 lives.
The warning from Boeing’s catastrophes is that climate ideology can have fatal consequences.
The 737 MAX was trumpeted as “Boeing’s game changer.”
It reduced emissions by 14 percent and Boeing raced it into production to compete with a climate-friendly new offering from Airbus.
But in order to achieve its green goal, Boeing had to use much bigger engines that didn’t fit in the usual position under the wing of the repurposed, 53-year-old 737 design..."

Dershowitz: Supreme Court Just Destroyed 2nd Article of Impeachment | Breitbart:

Image result for flickr commons images supreme courtHarvard Law School professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz pointed out on Friday that the Supreme Court had undercut the Democrats’ second article of impeachment by agreeing to hear three White House appeals against subpoenas.
The second article of impeachment passed by the House Judiciary Committee earlier Friday on a party-line vote accuses President Donald Trump of “obstruction of Congress” because he appealed to the courts rather than immediately obeying congressional subpoenas.

750 Billion Reasons Why Goldman Is Rooting For Greta Thunberg's Success | Zero Hedge
See the source image"Having lost much of its central banker incubation skills over the past decade...in recent years Goldman Sachs has been best known for enabling and profiting wildly from Malaysia 1MDB criminal fraud, which culminated with the arrest of former Malaysia PM Razak, but not before Goldman made billions in illicit profits from selling bonds offered by the country's sovereign wealth fund.
And while Goldman is still waiting to learn its criminal and civil fate...the company - which a decade ago was hoping to make billions from aggressively entering the carbon credit/offset market as profiled delightfully in Matt Taibbi's "The Great American Bubble Machine" - is already scheming how to profit from the latest round of anti-climate change euphoria, conveniently spawned by a 16-year-old child with Asperger's Syndrome.
On Monday, Goldman Sachs said it will provide $750 billion in financing, advisory services and investments for initiatives that fight climate change, as well as those that foster economic opportunities for under-served people over the next decade.
What Goldman did not say is that it will pocket a generous commission, somewhere in the 3-5% ballpark, by peddling "green" products to naive investors (including central banks) who have fallen for the whole ESG virtue signalling charade..."

Merkel warning: Boris Johnson’s UK will outstrip Germany after Brexit, says MP | UK | News | Express.co.uk
"BORIS JOHNSON will use his thumping electoral mandate to deliver a Brexit which will turn Britain into an economic power which will outstrip Germany, Tory MP Daniel Kawczynski has said.
See the source imageHe told Express.co.uk there could be no doubt about the verdict nationally, with Mr Johnson’s Conservative Party taking 365 seats compared with just 203 won by Jeremy Corbyn’s Labour Party, giving the Tories a majority of 80.
He added: “I am delighted the people of Great Britain have spoken so emphatically to get Brexit delivered and build a strong economy built on sustainable debt provision rather than Venezuela-esque hyper-borrowing under Corbyn.”
...He said: “The message is loud and clear, deliver Brexit and focus immediately thereafter on turning Britain into an economic power to rival and surpass Germany...

Dow gains 10,000th point since Trump's election | Fox Business
"The stock market has been unstoppable under the influence of President Trump.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average crossed 28,332.74 on Monday, meaning it has rallied 10,000 points, or more than 54 percent, since Trump’s election victory on November 8, 2016. The benchmark S&P 500 has gained more than 46 percent.

Vaping Raises the Risk of Respiratory Disease, Study Says | Time

Vaping Raises the Risk of Respiratory Disease, Study Says | Time
"At the heart of the hysteria over vaping is what seems like a simple question: Is it safer than smoking?
Answering that question, however, is complicated.
See the source image..“If you’re going to do one or the other, in terms of these respiratory effects you’re probably better off with an e-cigarette,” says study co-author...
“This study actually does support the harm reduction potential of e-cigarettes,” says Andy Tan, an assistant professor of population sciences at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute who has studied e-cigarettes.
“Yes, vaping is associated with about 29% to 31% higher odds of subsequent lung disease within two to three years than not vaping—but compare this with the 156% higher odds of using combustible tobacco than not smoking.”...

Tucker Carlson And Neil Patel: The Media Has Some Apologizing To Do After The IG Report | The Daily Caller:

Image result for flickr commons images Michael HorowitzThanks to the Department of Justice Inspector General’s report, we now know for certain what has been, for those paying attention, fairly obvious. The Steele dossier played a central role in the genesis of the Russia hoax and was used to justify extensive spying on former naval officer and Annapolis graduate Carter Page.
The top two leaders of the FBI were closely involved in this fiasco. Other powerful people knew what was happening and lied to cover it up. That all was confirmed by the IG report.

FAA ignored forecast of fifteen Boeing 737 MAX fatal crashes

Image result for Lion Air crashFAA ignored forecast of fifteen Boeing 737 MAX fatal crashes:
  • The normal scoring used is well below 10 "future fatal crashes".
"...An alarming report ignored
Facing the Congress, Dickson had to answer on an internal forecast of the regulator dating from December 2018, two months after the Lion Air crash.
The memo suggested that, without modification, the MCAS design flaw in the 737 MAX "could result in as many as 15 future fatal crashes over the life of the fleet ".
This translates into one crash every three years during the 45 years of the estimated life of the program, potentially leading to the death of 2,900 people.
But the administration did not take any measure following that report..."

“I love the fact that he’s original and that he did all that,” concluded Hannity. “He doesn’t have to. He could have done a concert, made $4 million. No, he went to see the prisoners and the prisoners cried, that is cool. That’s Christianity to me.”
Kanye West has been on a bit of a MAGA roll with the release of his latest album, “Jesus is King.” Speaking with radio personality Big Boy this past October, West decried “cancel culture” as well as Democratic policies that have allegedly brainwashed black Americans into a cycle of self-destruction.
