U.N. Tells Rich Countries to Pay $2 Trillion a Year for Climate 'Justice'

U.N. Tells Rich Countries to Pay $2 Trillion a Year for Climate 'Justice'3:24

• An annual transfer of funds from rich to poor countries, starting at around $2 trillion by 2030 and rising thereafter, is needed for climate “justice” according to a U.N.-backed report released Tuesday.
• China has been specifically excluded from the demand for reparations, which includes taxes for fossil fuel companies on their global “carbon profits,” even as the Communist state’s greenhouse gas emissions now exceed the entire rest of the developed world combined.
• The first one trillion dollars alone should come from rich countries, investors and multilateral development banks, declared the analysis commissioned by Britain and Egypt, hosts respectively of the 2021 U.N. climate summit in Glasgow and this week’s COP27 event in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt.
• A further $1.4 trillion must then originate domestically from private and public sources, said the report seen by AFP...

Disinformation Behind Censorship Demands

Disinformation Behind Censorship Demands - Michael Shellenberger

• Democrats demanding censorship are themselves spreading misinformation about climate change and energy.

"President Joe Biden, spokespersons for his administration, and Congressional Democrats say they are trying to get out the truth about energy and climate change against Republican and fossil fuel efforts to deny it. 

• Over the summer, Biden denied he was “limiting oil production” and accused oil refiners of restricting production. 
• In July, White House National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby said, “natural disasters... are getting worse because of climate change," which, he said, had caused the war in Syria. 
• And Rep. Ro Khanna, on September 15, 2022, said, “If there was a war on energy, how is Exxon, Chevron, BP, and Shell making over 200% profits? You can't have a war on an industry and then they're having record profits.”

But every one of their statements was false...

Conservative Euro MP: No 'Pandemic Amnesty' for 'Freedom Deniers'

Conservative Euro MP: No 'Pandemic Amnesty' for 'Freedom Deniers': 

With sentiment worldwide having turned significantly against lockdown restrictions, however, a number of individuals and groups who have previously pushed for draconian rules, especially against unvaccinated people, are now calling for everyone to forgive and forget.

However, calls to implement such a “pandemic amnesty” have been soundly rejected by many who faced the brunt of restrictions, with Tehres writing online that those responsible for the curbs on individual freedom must face the consequences of their actions.

Simply bad people.

 

America’s Fiscal Problem Is Excessive Government Spending

America’s Fiscal Problem Is Excessive Government Spending - Dan Mitchell
"...But since many people focus first and foremost on fiscal balance, let’s take a look at why budget surpluses at the turn of the century have turned into big budget deficits.
I’m motivated to address this issue because of this chart from Brian Riedl’s impressive collection. 

It shows spending increases are responsible for 97.5 percent of the shift.

• Some of you may be wondering if the chart is accurate. I can easily imagine my friends on the left exclaiming, “What about the Bush tax cuts and the Trump tax cuts?!?”
• Those tax cuts did happen, but they were mostly offset by Obama’s “fiscal cliff” tax increase and real bracket creep (the tax burden tends to increase over time since even small increases in economic growth will push households into higher tax brackets)...

I'm thinking...NOT!

A Voter's Primer: The Seven Health Policy Habits of Insanely Progressive People - American Thinker

A Voter's Primer: The Seven Health Policy Habits of Insanely Progressive People - American Thinker

By C.J. Baker, M.D.

"What is the most painful lesson the COVID-19 saga has taught the American people?  

Perhaps it was how, over the past two and a half years, we have been force-fed an extended taste of the dystopian version of "health care" that the Democrat Party and the Washington nomenklatura (but I repeat myself) seek to permanently impose on us...

Presenting the Seven Health Policy Habits of Insanely Progressive People:

1. Martial law as "public health."  Remember how "two weeks to flatten the curve" became two years to flatten your will to live?  Get ready for draconian, indefinitely extended lockdown measures whenever a "public health emergency" is declared — for example, before major elections.

2. Mandatory jab policies gone wild...

Does this include democrat intimidation?

Florida doctors will no longer be authorized to prescribe puberty blockers or 'gender affirming' surgeries to minors - TheBlaze: 

After a contentious vote on Friday, the Florida Board of Medicine and Florida Board of Osteopathic Medicine adopted rules that will prohibit doctors from prescribing certain medicines or performing certain surgeries on minors who believe that they are transgender.
