A HISTORY OF CLIMATE SCARES AT THE NEW YORK TIMES: 

• 1978, “NO END IN SIGHT TO 30-YEAR COOLING TREND; ” 
• 1988, “GLOBAL WARMING HAS BEGUN”

JULY 23, 2022 CAP ALLON

• NASA’s James Hansen started the global warming scare during the very hot summer of 1988. The New York Times reported the following on June 24, 1988: Until now, scientists have been cautious about attributing rising global temperatures of recent years to the predicted global warming caused by pollutants in the atmosphere, known as the ”greenhouse effect.”
• But today Dr. James E. Hansen of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration told a Congressional committee that it was 99 percent certain that the warming trend was not a natural variation but was caused by a buildup of carbon dioxide and other artificial gases in the atmosphere.

But what credibility can the New York Times have left?
For decades prior, the publication was scaremongering about the opposite climatic catastrophe: Global Cooling.
Below is an article from 1961, where the NYT is bracing citizens of the U.S. for a colder world:

The global scientific consensus back in 1961 was that the world “is getting colder”.

Physics is hard.

Dem Border Mayor Pro-Tem: Maybe Border Is 'Out of Sight, Out of Mind' for Mayorkas: 

On Thursday’s broadcast of the Fox Business Network’s “Evening Edit,” Eagle Pass, TX Mayor Pro-Tem Yolanda Ramon (D) reacted to DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas claiming that the southern border is secure by stating that she thinks Mayorkas might be taking an “out of sight, out of mind” approach to border security and that “maybe it’s about time that they come over here and they see what’s going on” and change their minds.

Fatal shootout in Chicago yields no charges; mayor questions decision
"Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot criticized Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx on Monday after her office declined to bring charges against suspects in a fatal West Side shootout where gunmen fired into a home late last week.
Her comments prompted a pointed response from Foxx’s office saying the mayor is “fully aware that ... we are obligated not to try cases in the media.”

• In the latest dispute between City Hall and the county’s top prosecutor amid high violent crime, Lightfoot said she was concerned by a decision by Foxx’s office not to bring charges related to the Friday morning exchange of gunfire, 
• where four people exited two vehicles and shot into a home on North Mason Avenue, and 
• people inside fired at them, according to authorities. 
• One person was killed and the shooters outside the home fled during the incident, which was also witnessed by police officers and caught on a city street camera..."

Republican attorneys general put Google on notice as YouTube cracks down on abortion 'misinformation' - TheBlaze

Republican attorneys general put Google on notice as YouTube cracks down on abortion 'misinformation' - TheBlaze: 

"That Members of the United States Congress would openly call for the full weight and power of the federal government to shut down private charitable organizations that have shown compassion and love to so many vulnerable women over the years is unconscionable. It is the opposite of how a pluralistic society that values diversity of viewpoints must operate if it is to survive," the letter states. "Complying with these demands would constitute a grave assault on the principle of free speech," the attorneys general said.

Jan. 6 Committee Just Keeps Digging That Hole Deeper With Latest Testimony

Jan. 6 Committee Just Keeps Digging That Hole Deeper With Latest Testimony
"...Let’s be frank — the whole point of the Jan. 6 effort is to try to do all they can to take down Donald Trump, because they’re afraid he’ll run again and win in 2024. 

So, if they wanted to be honest about it, what they’re doing is an effort to “interfere” in the 2024 election ahead of time.
...In other words, the Committee was pushing more hearsay, yet all they now have from the hearsay was that Trump was upset or had a “heated discussion.” 

• What happened to that supposed grabbing of the wheel or lunging at the Secret Service agent? There was no corroboration of those super human feats from 74-year-old Trump. 
• ...But you notice what else is missing here? Any testimony from the folks who were in the car — the agent and the driver who were there. Why? Because they reportedly disputed Hutchinson’s claims. 

...They wanted to take out Trump and hurt the Republicans’ chances in the midterms. 

But instead, they’re proving yet another reason why the Democrats should all be voted out for pushing such nonsense.

Russia Plays the Iran Card in Response to U.S. Blunders

"To say that the Biden administration failed to think through the consequences of confrontation with Russia over Ukraine might be the understatement of the 21st century. 

Western observers are shocked—shocked —to learn that Putin will ally himself with our enemies. 
Wrote the Daily Telegraph on July 19, “Desperate for new friends, Vladimir Putin plots unholy alliance with Iran and Turkey.” 

This isn’t desperation, though, but a trade-off that Russia has pondered for nearly twenty years. 

...Russia’s S-400 and S-500 air defense systems are still the best in the world. 

...If it gives Iran its most advanced air defense technology, Israel’s ability to destroy Iran’s nuclear weapons capability will be reduced—by a margin that no one knows for sure..."

Kagan warns Supreme Court will lose legitimacy if it strays from ‘public sentiment’
"The Supreme Court may lose its legitimacy if it strays too far from public sentiment, according to Justice Elena Kagan.

Kagan, a liberal judge appointed to the court in 2010 by former President Barack Obama, tied the standing of the court to its “connection to the public,” noting it could be dangerous if people continue to view Supreme Court justices as increasingly partisan, likely an allusion to the recent contentious court term that saw the overturning of Roe v. Wade and an expansion of gun rights..."
