Nothing Green Ever Works: the perfect six-step environmental virtue loop | Daily Telegraph
Nothing Green Ever Works: the perfect six-step environmental virtue loop | Daily Telegraph
- One: Britain goes big on wind turbines in order to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from traditional power sources
- Two: The wind don't blow and the power don’t flow.
- Three: A subsequent massive increase in demand for natural gas as a power source drives wholesale gas prices through the roof.
- Four: CF Fertilisers, a US-owned British fertiliser business that also produces carbon dioxide for commercial use, suspends production because high gas prices have made the business unprofitable.
- Five: Carbon dioxide is a required component for meat packaging. Without reliable supplies of commercial carbon dioxide, Britain faces a food shortage.
- Six: The British government, which spent millions of pounds to cut carbon dioxide emissions, will now give millions of pounds to CF Fertilisers so it can produce carbon dioxide.

FBI investigates parents and the "unbiased" media showcases their extreme opposition to freedom of speech!-----‘Extreme opposition’ to school mask mandates target Michigan health officials with threats of violence
‘Extreme opposition’ to school mask mandates target Michigan health officials with threats of violence
"...Public health officials across Michigan are facing threats of violence from their neighbors while anger over school masking requirements boils into calls to strip health departments of their power and funding.
Health officials are targets of harassment, death threats and accusations of treason being voiced in chaotic public meetings as parents and political activists demand an end to measures meant to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
Expressions of intense anger over health rules are pitting school boards and county commissions against health officials who worry the outrage is derailing efforts to protect their communities...Read all.
The Untouchable: The Market Is Beyond the Fed's Reach - American Consequences
The Untouchable: The Market Is Beyond the Fed's Reach - American Consequences
"...In a capitalist system, there are no sacred cows… What no longer meets the needs of shareholders, customers, or both generally ceases to exist.
In centrally planned societies, that which employs us is generally a forever concept – hence the economic desperation.
Described more vividly, if readers are looking for evidence of economic retreat, they need only find the countries in which the lineup of top businesses remains the same year after year, decade after decade. It’s a near-certain sign of decline because growing country economies are magnets for copious investments that relentlessly fund the replacement of existing commercial giants...

- Circuit City was the top-performing U.S. stock in the 1980s, by the 2020s it had vanished.
- Blockbuster’s story is much of the same. In the ’80s and ’90s, “Blockbuster Nights” were so common that the home-video-rental leader continued trying to expand the business model into the 2000s...
- General Electric (GE) was the most valuable company in the world, with a market cap of $585 billion.
- The company viewed as the next GE, and crowned as such on the cover of Barron’s, was Tyco.
- Enron was then seen as one of the best-managed companies in the world.
- The Internet increasingly factored into how we lived and worked, at which point Yahoo and AOL were the dominant players…
What has been written so far is hopefully a reminder that natural recessions and market corrections are signals of progress rather than scenarios we should fear.
They’re very often indicators that good is being replaced with great.
This is why we should shudder every time politicians promise to “bring back” jobs, or to fiddle with market forces that are delivering near-term pain – whereby ailing companies are allowed to fail...Read all.
New York Times issues correction after egregiously exaggerating coronavirus child hospitalizations - TheBlaze
New York Times issues correction after egregiously exaggerating coronavirus child hospitalizations - TheBlaze:
The New York Times issued a lengthy correction after numerous mistakes in an article about coronvirus vaccinations for children, including the egregious exaggeration of coronavirus hospitalizations among U.S. children.
Not simply liars, dumb liars!-----A COVID Correction for the Ages Points to a Bigger Agenda
A COVID Correction for the Ages Points to a Bigger Agenda
"...And when it comes to a topic such as COVID-19, where fear begets power, you can bet “errors” will be made in the name of the narrative.
A perfect example of this came via a Times correction today that can only be described as epic. Here’s how it read.The original article is ostensibly a news write-up on the promotion of vaccines for children under 12 around the world.
As you can see, the piece was full of false information, from far overstating COVID hospitalizations for children in the United States to misstating vaccination policies in Sweden.

She was working that night as a manager at a Casey’s General Store in Columbia helping out Mable Scruggs, another single mother, making ends meet by picking up a night shift.
- What Rep. Cori Bush’s racist defense of a black man’s killer tells us about power.
Neither of the two women would make it home again.
An hour before midnight, Ernest Lee Johnson came in after a binge in which he bought three rocks of crack cocaine, traded one of them for a gun, put on a mask and came to rob Casey’s.
The plan had been to lock the employees in the back and have one of them open the safe.

The plan had been to lock the employees in the back and have one of them open the safe.
But then Johnson beat all three of the Casey's employees to death.
- He stabbed Mary Bratcher repeatedly through her hand with a screwdriver, likely defensive wounds as she fought the monster for her life.
- Then he smashed her over the head with a claw hammer again and again. Johnson appeared to be aiming for her face, striking her mouth and nose, to disfigure her while killing her.
- He beat Mabel to death in the same vicious way.
That was 1994.
Like every monster, Johnson never had any shortage of defenders...Read all!!!!!!!!!!

Mark Levin RIPS AG Garland for 'weaponizing' FBI against parents, reveals multimillion dollar motive for CRT push - TheBlaze:
Joining Fox News' Sean Hannity, "LevinTV" host Mark Levin ripped into the Biden administration and Attorney General Merrick Garland for what he called the weaponization of the DOJ and FBI to target parents who challenge mask mandates and critical-race-theory-influenced curricula.
Is Merrick Garland creating an East German Stasi-like FBI? Why is the DOJ getting involved in school board meetings and going after moms as if they're domestic terrorists? Levin questioned.
NPR fawns over delusional never-Trumper (calls him "conservative") who assures her that standing against vote fraud and demanding answers for Jan 6 are "politically disastrous" for republicans---How The California Recall Election Will Affect The Republican Party : NPR
How The California Recall Election Will Affect The Republican Party : NPR-Transcript
GOLDBERG: It's suicidal. And we even saw going into the final home stretch of the recall, Donald Trump was talking about how the system was already rigged, the election had already been stolen. It's dishonest. It's a lie. But it's also just sand-poundingly stupid politics to tell your most ardent voters there's no point in showing up because the system is already rigged against you. But the fact that this is what so many of the base of the Republican Party want to hear, even though it is not in the political self-interest of the party, is a great example of the larger dysfunction that the Republican Party has got itself caught up in.
MARTIN: The House investigation into the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol is going on right now, despite efforts by GOP leaders to undermine it. When you talk about the built-in political price that the GOP will suffer for pushing this line about voter fraud when there isn't any, what about undermining the House investigation into an attack on the U.S. Capitol? I mean, is that something that the party will pay a price for in the midterms? Or does it not move Republican voters at this point?
GOLDBERG: In the midterms, probably not that much. The rule is is that sitting presidents lose seats in Congress, and the intensity is all on the side of Republicans. I think it's politically disastrous in the long term...Read/listen to all!
