Around the world, backlash against expensive climate-change policies

Around the world, backlash against expensive climate-change policies
"From Alberta to Australia, from Finland to France, and beyond, voters are increasingly showing their displeasure with expensive energy policies imposed by politicians in an inane effort to purportedly fight human-caused climate change.
Skepticism over whether humans are causing dangerous climate change has always been higher in America than in most industrialized countries.
As a result, governments in Europe, Canada, and other developed areas are much farther along the energy rationing path, cutting carbon dioxide emissions as required.
However, residents in these countries have begun to revolt against the higher energy costs they suffer under due to high taxes on fossil fuels and mandates to use expensive renewable energy..."

Instapundit Blog Archive YOU DON’T SAY:
Many Democrats Exaggerated Mental Distress After 2016 Election.

“Our research suggests that for many Democrats, expressing mental distress after the election was a form of partisan cheerleading,” write researchers 

...This so-called “reverse” cheerleading occurs when a person misreports or exaggerates a condition publicly in order to show support for their affiliated group, or in this case, their political party.

...In other words, a person who might describe suffering psychological distress on social media or to their friends, but doesn’t search for any type of help or relief, is more likely showing a form of reverse cheerleading.

It’s minor neuroticism dressed up as severe neuroticism, which is the lamest kind of virtue-signaling.---Posted by Stephen Green"

Judicial Watch Obtains DOJ Documents Showing Andrew Weissmann Leading Hiring Effort for Mueller Special Counsel - Judicial Watch:

Judicial Watch announced today the U.S. Department of Justice released 73 pages of records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) containing text messages and calendar entries of Mueller special counsel prosecutor Andrew Weissmann showing he led the hiring effort for the investigation that targeted President Trump.

After Losing Nearly $4 Billion Last Year, Postal Service on Track to Lose $7 Billion This Year – Reason.com

After Losing Nearly $4 Billion Last Year, Postal Service on Track to Lose $7 Billion This Year – Reason.com:

• Revenue and mail volume is basically flat, but the USPS' operating expenses are out of control.

"The U.S. Postal Service lost more than $2 billion during the second quarter of the fiscal year, putting it on track to finish the current year more than $7 billion in the red—way worse than the nearly $4 billion in losses it posted last year.

In its quarterly fiscal report, published today, the Post Office reported small decreases in mail volume and overall revenue compared to the same quarter of 2018.
Its big losses are driven by a sharp increase in expenses, primarily workers' compensation costs, pension liabilities, and payments for retirees' health benefits..."

Gowdy: FBI Cited Articles And Info From Clinton Ally To Corroborate Steele Dossier | The Daily Caller

Gowdy: FBI Cited Articles And Info From Clinton Ally To Corroborate Steele Dossier | The Daily Caller:

“I’ve seen the spreadsheet, Martha, I have seen each factual assertion listed in that dossier, and then I’ve seen the FBI’s justification. And when you’re citing newspaper articles as corroboration for a factual assertion that you have made, you don’t need an FBI agent to go do a Google search,” said Gowdy, who served on the House Intelligence Committee and is a Fox News contributor.
“When the name Sidney Blumenthal is included as part of your corroboration, and when you’re the world’s leading law enforcement agency, you have a problem.”
Gowdy did not further explain how the FBI used information from Blumenthal, but his claim could be a potential bombshell as investigators probe the FBI’s use of the dossier in its investigation of possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russian government.

Connecticut radio station WDRC rebrands itself as ‘Trump 103.3’ in ‘ultra conservative’ talk format - Hartford Courant
"Few people work harder than Donald Trump when it comes to self promotion, but now Connecticut radio station WDRC is doing it for him, rebranding itself as “Trump Radio."
The station’s brass is touting the new “ultra conservative talk" format — which is expected to be temporary — as the “brave new voice of freedom.” 
The station’s lineup includes Lee Elci, Brad Davis, Mike Gallagher, commentary from Bill O’Reilly and Ben Shapiro.
It’s all part of an effort by the station, which is running promos calling for the firing of Gov. Ned Lamont, to galvanize conservatives in the state..."

The History and Results of America's Disastrous Public School System - Foundation for Economic Education

The History and Results of America's Disastrous Public School System - Foundation for Economic Education:
"...While it’s almost universally understood that the American school system is underperforming, “reform,” too, is almost universally prescribed as the solution.
Yet in other walks of life, bad ideas are not reformed—they are eliminated and replaced with better ones. 
Our school system is rarely identified as a bad idea.
The motivations at the origins were not pure; they were never to educate but to nationalize the youth in a particular mold.
The system is reflexively left alone while the methods are the bad ideas that get cycled in and out: open concept schools, multiple intelligences, project-based learning, universal design for learning, merit-based pay, vouchers, charters, and most recently, educational neuroscience.
Every decade or so we are told by the pedagogic experts that they have found an answer to our school’s problems..."

Who Is John Durham, The Man Assigned To Examine The Origins Of The Russia Investigation? | The Daily Caller

Who Is John Durham, The Man Assigned To Examine The Origins Of The Russia Investigation? | The Daily Caller:

Durham went after Connecticut street gangs in 1992 and prosecuted mobsters in the Gambino, Genovese and Patriarca crime families, TIME Magazine reported. Durham was also responsible for exposing former Connecticut Gov. John Rowland’s corruption in 2004, which led to the governor spending a year in prison.
Former Attorney General Janet Reno commissioned Durham to investigate the FBI’s relationship with informant and Boston mobster Whitey Bulger in 1999. Durham’s team was responsible for indicting Bulger cronies Stephen “The Rifleman” Flemmi and special agent John Connolly Jr. who are portrayed in “Black Mass,” according to The Day.
Durham also investigated a case at the request of former Attorney General Michael B. Mukasey in 2008 involving videotapes the CIA destroyed that depicted the torture of terrorism suspects. He further examined the CIA’s handling of detainees at the request of former Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. under the Obama administration in 2009, according to The NYT.

Seattle Is Overwhelmed by Garbage and Filth, But the City’s Leaders Won’t Admit It.:
"Over the past few years, Seattle has become a dumping ground for millions of pounds of garbage, needles, feces, and biohazardous waste, largely emanating from the hundreds of homeless encampments that have sprouted across the city.
Now, the Emerald City is on the verge of a full-blown public-health crisis.
Last year saw a 400 percent increase in HIV infections among mostly homeless addicts and prostitutes in the city’s northern corridor.
Public-health officials are sounding the alarms about the return of diseases like typhus, tuberculosis, and trench fever.
Even the region’s famed mussels and clams have tested positive for opioids..."

CO2 Data Manipulation – Dr. Tim Ball

CO2 Data Manipulation – Dr. Tim Ball
CO2 Data Manipulation

The consistent pattern of the IPCC reveals demonization and misrepresentations of CO2. Here are some basic facts about CO2 that illustrate the discrepancy between what the IPCC claim and what science knows.

• Natural levels of Carbon dioxide (CO2) are less than 0.04% of the total atmosphere; it is far from being the most important or even only greenhouse gas as most of the public understands.
• Water vapour which is 95 percent of the greenhouse gases by volume is by far the most abundant and important greenhouse gas.
• The other natural greenhouse gas of relevance is methane (CH4), but it is only 0.000175 percent of atmospheric gases and 0,036 percent of all greenhouse gases.
• In order to amplify the importance of CO2 they created a measure called “climate sensitivity”. This determines that CO2 is more “effective” as a greenhouse gas than water vapour
• Here is a table from Wikipedia showing estimates of the effectiveness of the various GHGs. Notice the range of estimates, which effectively makes the measures meaningless, unless you have a political agenda. Wikipedia acknowledges “It is not possible to state that a certain gas    causes an exact percentage of the greenhouse effect.”

• The result of determining “effectiveness” was the creation of a Global  Warming Potential (GWP) chart. It was similar to the chart of Ozone Depleting Substances(ODS) created after the false claim that CFCs were destroying ozone in the upper atmosphere..."
