Read the report, ain't pretty!-----IEA’s Net Zero Dream Was Just Debunked As A Nightmare

IEA’s Net Zero Dream Was Just Debunked As A Nightmare - Authored by Daniel Turner via RealClear Wire,

"First they came for the cars. 

Then the gas stoves. 

Next was meat and dairy products. 

The latest on the chopping block? Wood-fired pizza. 

These types of tactics grab the headlines, but make no mistake: climate alarmism courses through the veins of the highest levels of government leaders and regulators.
As President Joe Biden would say, “I’m not joking, folks.”..
Because of its noble-sounding intentions and a sympathetic mainstream media, the preposterous nature of a world without carbon rarely gets the scrutiny that it deserves.
Until now.
For these reasons, the RealClearFoundation asked the Energy Policy Research Foundation (EPRF) to analyze the feasibility and consequences of a carbon-neutral world.
The results of the meticulous 92-page report weren’t pretty...

Florida Hospitals Asking Patients About Immigration Status Spark Outrage - Giulia Carbonaro

4 fired at West Michigan TV station after news leadership ordered scale back of Pride coverage - mlive.com

"GRAND RAPIDS, MI – Two members of news leadership and two staffers at WOOD TV8 have been fired after a leaked newsroom memo directed a scale back of LGBTQ Pride month event coverage to cow to unhappy viewers, according to reports...

•  “We know that West Michigan is a conservative area in many ways,” the memo, obtained by MLive/The Grand Rapids Press, stated. “We need to recognize that some stories related to LGBTQ issues are going to be controversial and polarizing in our community. While you personally may not agree with a certain position, people are entitled to their opinions and they are our viewers.”
• The memo went on to say that if there’s a news reason for a story, reporters should do it. But if it’s just more coverage of another Pride event, “that may not be a good enough reason to do the story.”
• For Pride events that are covered, the memo asked staff to present “both sides” of the issue. The memo didn’t outline what the opposing side of a Pride event is.
• “We should not cover every Pride event that we learn about,” the memo from the assistant news director stated. “We need to do some work to discern the newsworthy-ness of the event.
• “If we are covering pride events we need to consider how to make the story balanced and get both sides of the issues.”

The memo was met with pushback from WOOD TV staff, a number of whom took to social media to publicly criticize it and voice their concerns...

US envoy John Kerry: ‘There are trillions of dollars waiting to be invested’ in climate transition - FRANCE 24

"French President Emmanuel Macron hosted world leaders at a summit in Paris to thrash out funding for the climate transition and post-Covid debt burdens of poor countries, hoping to secure billions of dollars in investment from the private sector.
“There are trillions of dollars waiting to be invested,” Kerry, a former US secretary of state, told FRANCE 24. “That’s what President Macron was addressing in this summit: how do we take those trillions of dollars and excite them to get into the market now in developing economies?”...
“There are currency challenges, political challenges, so everybody has to step up and begin to take the risk factor out of these investments,” he said....

Senate Democrats Take One More Step Toward Socialized Medicine - Sally C. Pipes

It’s been less than a year since Democrats enacted the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), which gives Medicare the power to set the prices of certain medicines...

But Democrats already want more...

• The SMART Prices Act would take things even further. It would empower Medicare to set prices for 20 drugs in 2026, instead of the current 10 under the IRA. In 2027, that number would jump to 40 — many more than the IRA stipulated.
• The new bill would also subject medicines to price controls five years after approval by the Food and Drug Administration. That’s up to eight years quicker than under the IRA and significantly sooner than when generic or biosimilar competitors can enter the market.

This provision would gut the generics industry...
