Brace Yourself for Coming Electricity Shortages - IER

Brace Yourself for Coming Electricity Shortages - IER
Think the U.S. electric grid is immune to blackouts? Think again.
  • The PJM interconnection just reported insufficient supply of new renewable technology to meet demand as the region which consists of 13 eastern states and the District of Columbia expects to retire 21 percent of its existing generating capacity through 2030. 
  • That is, fossil-fuel power plants are retiring much faster than renewable sources are being developed, which could lead to energy “imbalances” –shortages and blackouts. 
  • Further, renewable sources—largely wind and solar power—are unreliable as the sun must shine and the wind must blow, which means they are operating at only a fraction of their capacity...
  • PJM typically generates a surplus of power because of its current large fossil-fuel generating fleet, which it exports to neighboring grids in the Midwest and Northeast that helped to keep lights on when wind power plunged in the Midwest and central states recently...

Firing offence?!!

New live-action 'Peter Pan' trailer shocks with major character changes: 'Diversity nonsense' | Fox News

Disney’s "Peter Pan and Wendy" was lambasted across social media after its first trailer Tuesday featured female Lost Boy characters.

The preview of the latest live-action remake appeared to follow similar story beats of the original J.M. Barrie story until the characters reached the fabled Neverland. Upon coming face-to-face with the Lost Boys, Wendy (played by Ever Anderson) commented that the kids are not just boys.

"But you're not all boys," Wendy remarked.

The Northman; how a film about white Europeans has upset the left-wing ...

"It seems almost beyond belief that a film which shows medieval Europe populated exclusively by white people with traditional gender roles could upset progressive types, but The Northman is being slated as appealing to the alt-right and being a dog whistle to white supremacists.

Is it possible they are THAT DUMB?-----CNN and Election Disinformation - American Thinker

CNN and Election Disinformation - American Thinker - By Joe Fried

"My friend and I sometimes argue about media outlets like CNN and MSNBC. Why do they spread misinformation?

A. Are they grossly uninformed?

B. Do they know the truth but tell falsehoods anyway?

C. Do they think we are stupid or naïve?

My buddy feels that the media outlets know the truth but lie about it.

To me, it is more complicated. The nice-looking journalists who read the teleprompters are genuinely ignorant. 

On the other hand, the news producers probably know the truth but spread misinformation anyway. Producers are the ones who select the topics, construct the programs, and hire the special analysts. 

Let’s consider this recent example.
