A national emergency is declared in Britain because the sun is shining...
"The United Kingdom Health and Security Agency has declared a national emergency because sunny weather is expected next week.
This an effort to make the appallingly high gas and electricity bills, which many people cannot afford, appear sensible and part of the fight against global warming.
It ties in with the government’s so-called net zero agenda.
Never let your government be run by liberals! NEVER!-----Transgender woman who impregnated 2 inmates removed from N.J.’s female prison

Canadian Court Rules it Legal To Deny Unvaccinated Person Transplant
Canadian Court Rules it Legal To Deny Unvaccinated Person Transplant:
Doctors diagnosed Lewish with her disease in 2018 and in 2020 urged her to receive various vaccinations, which she agreed to, however, she did not agree to receive the Wuhan coronavirus vaccine and was told without the vaccine she would not receive her potentially life-saving transplant.
“Taking this vaccine offends my conscience,” Lewis said an a sworn affidavit and added, “I ought to have the choice about what goes into my body and a life-saving treatment cannot be denied to me because I chose not to take an experimental treatment for a condition — COVID-19 — which I do not have and which I may never have.”
Your "Carbon Footprint" is a LIE (and we all fell for it)
From comments: "There is a book "Fake Invisible Catastrophes And Threats Of Doom" by Patrick Moore.
He was a co-founder of Greenpeace and he does an amazing job touching on all these environmental subjects.
His book was a great starter for me into opening my eyes to all the bullshit we see in the media and companies like BP."

NO ONE WANTS TO JOIN THE MILITARY ANYMORE:
"Imagine you are an eighteen-year-old, white, Christian male in Georgia with a family history of military service. As you progressed through your teen years, you watched Confederate statues being torn down and military bases being renamed, endless media and elitist demonization of your culture as racist and deplorable and backwards, and military and civilian leadership that thinks diversity and inclusion (i.e. fewer white men) is best thing since sliced bread. Would you volunteer?...
There’s another reason why military ranks are diminishing in 2022:

- With censorship soaring and real reporting all but taboo, the major dailies have just one important function left: being a political signaling system

- ...Biden’s descent was obvious six years ago...insisted from afar that Biden’s problems were due to continuing difficulties with a childhood stutter, something John had also overcome.
- ...The Times added op-eds from heroes like airline pilot Captain “Sully” Sullenberger with titles like, “Like Joe Biden, I Once Stuttered, Too. I Dare You to Mock Me.”
- ...I called the mental health professionals who were all too happy to diagnose Donald Trump from afar for a story about the effort to remove Trump under the 25th amendment, and all declined to discuss Biden even off the record for “ethical” reasons.
This week, all that changed...
...Along with companion outlets like the Washington Post and The Atlantic (as pure a reflection of establishment thought as exists in America), the paper in this sense fulfills the same function that Izvestia once served in the Soviet Union, telling us little or even less than nothing about breaking news events (“Can NATO Long Exist?” was among Pravda’s final questions in 1991) but giving us comprehensive, if often coded, portraits of the thinking of the leadership class."

After a seaside vacation at the ritzy Alpemare Beach Club in Tuscany, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has returned to the nation’s capital to roll out more episodes of the House’s Jan. 6 Committee televised miniseries this Tuesday and Thursday.
