 VIDEO: Kennedy Wipes Out Biden Bureaucrat On Climate Change Nuttery (thehayride.com)

"This will infuriate you, as it’s a full exposition of just how dishonest and ridiculous the people running our country are.

"Yesterday in a Senate Appropriations Committee hearing, Deputy Energy Secretary David Turk showed up to sing the praises of the Biden administration’s efforts to fight “global warming,” and specifically to make America “carbon neutral” by 2050.

"The interesting thing behind that narrative is that America is already “carbon neutral.” Our plants and trees soak up more carbon than our animals and machines put out into the world. So we actually don’t need to spend any money at all to achieve this goal.

"But Turk is trying to achieve a different goal, which is to make our industries and our economy as a whole “carbon neutral.” And that unrealistic goal, which involves doing wasteful and probably environmentally harmful things like trading reliable carbon-based energy sources (coal, oil and gas) for “renewables” and specifically solar and wind – the component for production of which are generally made in China using methods far more violative of the environment than oil and gas wells and pipelines are, he says will cost trillions of dollars.

"But it’ll save us money on net, he says, without explaining exactly how. The old line about the glaciers melting and our shorelines plunging under the oceans aside, which frankly is not supported by any real evidence – the “hockey stick” computer model of global warming producing a catastrophic sea level rise has long been debunked, and the small rise in global temperature the climate change advocates currently hang their hats on simply argues for future dollars spent on coastal protection, seawalls and the like which certainly wouldn’t necessitate “tens of trillions of dollars” as he says.

"John Kennedy is generally not one to put up with steaming piles of B.S. laid at his feet, so he starts asking Turk questions for which he is quite bereft of answers. How much will fundamentally transforming our economy to be “carbon neutral” cost? No answer. How do you know this money will pay for itself? How much will the effort spent at “carbon neutrality” lower world temperatures?". . .

Man Charged With Hate Crime After Allegedly Shooting Two Strangers Execution Style Because They Were White

 Because They Were White | The Daily Wire

"A black man in Tulsa, Oklahoma, was charged with murdering two white men in what appeared to be execution-style slayings last month, and authorities are calling it a racially motivated hate crime.

"Carlton Gilford, a homeless man, allegedly shot two men in the back of the head at two separate locations on April 18, according to the Tulsa Police Department, Fox News reported. Lundin Hathcock, 35, was shot around 9:40 a.m. at the Rudisill Library, and James McDaniel, 55, was shot at a QuikTrip convenience store. Tulsa County District Attorney Steve Kunzweiler said that evidence suggests Gilford shot both men because they were white, and he has been charged with a hate crime for his alleged killings.". . .

‘Just Brutal for President Biden!’ George Stephanopoulos Breaks Down Jawdropping New Poll Showing Trump Clobbering Biden

Who are the 36% that like Biden for president?

  Mediaite  "There was not a bit of sugarcoating, Sunday, from ABC News anchor George Stephanopoulos on a brand new poll from ABC and the Washington Post.

“This poll is just brutal for President Biden!” Stephanopoulos said.

Indeed, the silver linings were just about impossible to find for the White House. The poll put Biden’s approval rating at 36 percent — down 6 points from February and an all-time low in that particular survey. The survey also showed Biden getting trounced in a hypothetical 2024 matchup with former President Donald Trump, 45-38.

Stephanopoulos had trouble processing the support for Trump. The poll found roughly 20 percent of those who believe Trump should face criminal charges in New York over the Stormy Daniels hush money payouts would still support him in the 2024 election.

“I’ve got to admit I have a hard time wrapping my head around that,” Stephanopoulos said. “You’ve got one in five people who say they believe President Trump should face criminal charges, but they would still vote for him.”. . .

Biden Administration waging pointless war on our comfort in the name of climate -

Van Gogh Cuts Off Own Ear So He Won’t Be Able To Hear Screaming Climate Change Protesters | Babylon Bee
"London; Sources at the National Gallery revealed today that a self-portrait of Vincent van Gogh cut its own ear off so that it would no longer have to hear the anguished cries of climate change protesters tossing tomato soup on his masterpieces.". . .

 American Thinker  "Looking forward to using your air-conditioning this summer to keep you from misery and lack of sleep? Well, you might have some issues. You see, the Biden administration has declared war on comfort. It’s not just gas stoves, leaf blowers, and lawnmowers the Biden-ites are coming for.  No siree. They are also bound and determined to eventually make air-conditioning prohibitively expensive for all but their coastal elite friends and allies.

"New Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations are limiting supplies of freon and other refrigerants, because they are allegedly contributors to “climate change.” The new production quotas have driven up the price of these refrigerants by about 300%, meaning that a recharge may cost $100 to $500 more than before these regulations took effect, depending on how much replacement refrigerant is needed. 

"But wait, there’s more! The coolant quotas get even more stringent next year. Moreover, other new EPA rules are directed at those who service air conditioners. Some of these pertain to the types of containers in which refrigerants can be housed and transported. And all of which are going to impose additional costs that will need to be passed on to the consumer.

"So, if you balk at the price of refilling or repairing your air-conditioning unit this summer, perhaps you could consider purchasing a new one. Unfortunately, Department of Energy (DOE) efficiency standards will be piled on to the EPA measures, and the combined effect of these excessively stringent requirements will be to raise the price of new A/C equipment, as well.". . .

No seat for a Biden

 Oops! Did Someone Forget to Save a Seat for Jill Biden at King Charles' Coronation? | washingtonengager.com | washingtonengager.com

"Well, well, well, looks like First Lady Jill Biden had a bit of a giggle-inducing seating arrangement at King Charles' coronation on May 6.

"While her hubby, President Joe Biden, couldn't make it for reasons unknown, Jill headed to Westminster Abbey to witness the royal affair.

"However, it seems like the organizers weren't exactly rolling out the red carpet for her as they stuck her all the way in the back.

"Oh boy, you can just feel the love and respect pouring in, can't you?

"Ok! Magazine reported that of course, people couldn't help but comment on the situation. One person wrote, "Jill Biden is in the last row!" while another said, "Jill Biden in the back row. Love it! Stupid move by Joe snubbing the king, supporting the Markles, and encouraging their treacherous actions."

"A third observed, "Jill Biden seated at the back by the toilets. Maybe they'd still planned for Joe to be there?" while a fourth stated, "Bit rude seating Jill Biden so far back isn't it?"

Don’t Believe For A Second Democrats Care About Jordan Neely

Townhall  "The question is, what makes one death “more important” or “newsworthy” than another? The answer is simple: The degree to which Democrats can exploit it to their advantage."

"It really is that simple. In the grand scheme of things, George Floyd was a junkie who resisted arrest. What happened to him shouldn’t have, but the police didn’t rob his kid of their father that day, crack did years earlier.

"If any of the politicians and pundits who’d declared him to be a saint over the manner of his death had given a damn about him while he was alive, he would still be alive today. And if he were, they’d ignore him just like they did when he was.

"Same goes for the latest attempt by Democrats to simultaneously be seen as caring about something they couldn't care less about and stoke racial divisions for their own benefit in the death of Jordan Neely.

"Do you really think Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is upset that a homeless man died while being restrained after threatening a subway car full of passengers? Tweet anything remotely negative to her, no matter how accurate, and she’s nailing herself to a cross about how everyone wants to hurt her or date her. She’s not a serious person. That she called it “murder” without knowing anything other than the skin colors of the victim and the person leftists accuse of killing him tells you everything you need to know about her and the coverage of this case.". . .

Texas mall massacre gunman is named as 33-year-old Mauricio Garcia

This isn't the first time the liberal media has tried to sell the nonwhite, white supremacist angle when they got nothing.

Texas mall massacre gunman is named 33-year-old Mauricio Garcia (msn.com)

                      Children were among the dead outside the H&M store in Allen, Texas 

Fortunately, AOC's Democrats had not defunded 

the officer who put a stop to this mass murderer.

. . ."It's also believed that Garcia was living at a motel at the time of the massacre. Police also searched that residence and found additional ammunition, WSJ reports.

"According to the Washington Post, Garcia may have had white supremacist or neo-Nazi beliefs. A patch the gunman was wearing on his chest alluded to his ideologies - although no formal motive has been released. 

"This comes after new audio revealed how the heroic officer made a frantic phone call begging for his colleagues to join him on the scene, radioing: 'I need everybody I got.' 

"The officer bravely ran towards the active shooter - who was armed with 60 rounds and had shot over a dozen people by this point - and killed him.

"About two minutes after first calling for backup, the cop said: 'I got him down.'  Minutes later, another voice is heard on the radio saying: 'We got victims. I need an ambulance.' 

"The FBI and police raided dead Garcia's Dallas home just one hour after the massacre and requested a translator to speak with his family. 

"Neighbors say they often saw Garcia wearing a security guard-type uniform, but he was 'very quiet' and had 'very unusual behavior.' His gray Dodge Charger, which was seen at the scene, was often parked outside the home.". . .

How long before the Allen, Texas, mall shooting is memory-holed? - American Thinker

"Yesterday, something terrible happened in Allen, Texas: An evil man murdered eight people, and injured several others, at an outlet mall. However, based on the currently available facts, this shooting will soon be memory-holed because it does not fit the left’s preferred narrative.". . .

"If the shooter was white, we’ll hear about it. If the shooter was a white nationalist, we’ll hear about it even more. And if the shooter was a white nationalist who targeted non-whites, expect the FBI at the doorstep of every conservative in America. However, if the facts don’t match those metrics—if the shooter was non-white or a member of the LGBTQ+++ cohort—expect the entire event to vanish quickly from the media’s consciousness.". . .

(Don’t) Take the F Train

 

(Don’t) Take the F Train - Clarice_Feldman   Another act to subdue an aggressive mentally ill man leads to another George Floyd media-leftist whitewash of the perpetrator and this time, I think it will not work.

Don Surber says it well:

“Democrats turned subways into hell and now give good citizens the choice between being the victim of a lunatic who kills them or a lunatic justice system that punishes anyone who stands up to the psychos.

"It’s called anarcho-tyranny.“

Let’s review the comparison. Jordan Neely had a long criminal record -- 42 arrests. He threatened passengers who made several 911 calls without a response. ". . .

. . .If New York cannot manage its homeless and mentally ill, it will have to forego the nonsense about defunding the police and place cops in the subways and on the streets, or it will be up to more people than the three men who subdued Neely to keep ordinary citizens safe from attack. Maybe the people who are failing their duties to the homeless and mentally ill are the ones who deserve to be in the dock, not those acting to defend themselves and others."

Biden Calls a 'Major Press Conference,' But Is Just Confused

This is the man who, in his wisdom, has done all he can to divide our nation, black against white. From his first words in power, he spoke the words "white supremacy", as learned from his former (and current) leader and mentor. He has made our nation a laughing stock before the world, doing for the Presidency what Jim Acosta did for journalism. The Tunnel Dweller

PJ Media   "Old Joe Biden almost held a “major press conference” on Friday. Or rather, he announced one, and it was briefly big news, but as it turned out, it was just the dementia talking. Good thing he didn’t declare war on anyone. How comforting it is that the adults are back in charge, eh?". . .

"Biden has held so few press conferences that whenever he announces one, it’s a significant event. David E. Clementson, an assistant professor in the Grady College of Journalism and Mass Communication at the University of Georgia, noted in a late February article at The Conversation that “it took Biden until late March 2021 to hold his first press conference, more than two months after his inauguration — the longest a new president had gone without holding a press conference in 100 years.”

What’s more, “during Biden’s first year in office, he held a total of 10 press conferences.” In fact, he has had only 21 in all, making his average for his first two years of pretending to be president just over ten per year. No president in the last 34 years has averaged so few press conferences. So on Friday, when he said he was going to have one, the excitement among the assembled Leftist media hacks was understandable.

Biden, appearing even weaker and feebler than he usually does, said softly: “Um, you know, I, I think we, we’ve got a lot of work to do, I’m, uh, and I’m doin’ a major press conference this afternoon, so, uh, I love you all, but I’d like to ask ya to leave so we can get down to business.” Biden then grinned wolfishly as various reporters asked him questions about the drone attack on the Kremlin and the risks he saw in artificial intelligence (AI); he responded that he would address all of their concerns later.". . .

New York Times White House correspondent Katie Rogers cleared it all up early Friday afternoon, tweeting: “At ease. The president was referring to his MSNBC interview tonight when he said he was delivering a ‘major’ press conference this afternoon, per 2 ppl familiar.” So the putative president of the United States was confusing a softball interview with a sycophantic far-Left network with a genuine attempt to address the real concerns of the American people by taking unscripted questions from actual journalists, some of whom don’t share his political views.

John Kennedy Explodes At Schumer, Dems' 'Loon Wing' For 'Threats' Against Supreme Court

"In remarks at the start of today's Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) excoriated Democrats for their attacks on Supreme Court Justices."

Comments to this video: "I am both appalled and disgusted that Schumer was allowed to get away with these threats that he made against the US SC justices. It makes me sick. He should absolutely be ashamed of himself.

"If the Constitution is All Law. Why hasn’t Hillary or Chuck been charged? And so many other. Republicans quit talking and do something. Stand up for the Constitution of the United States and the American People. You have the evidence!! God help us

Another Reason I am No Longer a Leftist

When left-wingers and right-wingers toss out their “expertise” and “solutions” for poverty they so rarely mention one of our worst enemies, a dragon we must confront and spear on a daily basis if we don’t want to sink beneath the surface. This dragon is not laziness nor is it racism. It is learned helplessness.

Frontpage Mag   In 2014, I published an essay listing ten reasons I am no longer a leftist. Something happened last Monday that hurt my feelings a lot and reminded me of another reason: I’m poor. This is counterintuitive. The Left depicts itself as the champion of the poor; the Left depicts right-wingers as hating the poor. Backstage, behind all the speechifying about “compassion,” a very specific left-wing attitude to the poor is abhorrent to me. I encountered that attitude last Monday. I felt disgust, rage, and sorrow.

The average per capita income in my city, Paterson, NJ, is a bit more than half of the US average. One in four persons is living on less than $13,000 annually. Paterson was founded in 1791 by Alexander Hamilton. Thanks to its picturesque facades, Paterson is often used as a film set. In 2019, Steven Spielberg filmed his remake of West Side Story here. Sets are hermetically sealed. Directors, scriptwriters, actors, choreographers, composers, enter this city lugging mobile, self-contained, restaurants, dressing rooms, and even sun and rain. They never breathe the same air as a Patersonian, yet they tell the story of Paterson. When Spielberg was here, using our decaying city as his backdrop, he erected, in downtown Paterson, a set of a decaying city. He came all this way just to use his techno-Crayolas to scribble up a simulacrum of what a decaying city should really look like.

Yes, Spielberg’s set is a metaphor. People who are not poor say who the poor are, why we are poor, and what should be done about us. They script us. They choreograph us. They erect sets blocking your view of real poor people. They announce their own authority and they cry, “Authenticity!”

Everyone negatively stereotypes the poor. I’m poor and I succumb to using slurs like “redneck,” “white trash,” “trailer trash,” and “toothless.” “Redneck” refers to the sunburned necks of those who labor manually in hot sun, like my carpenter brother; like me when I was a landscaper, one of many manual labor jobs I took when I was working my way toward a PhD. “Toothless” is an insult meaning stupid, primitive, and backward. But we all know what “toothless” really means. “Toothless,” when used as an insult, means that those who can afford dental care are comfortable disdaining those who can’t.

Grassley and Comer Say They’ve Found Evidence of Biden Getting PAID OFF for ‘Policy Decisions’

Frontpage Mag

Comer declared, “The American people need to know if President Biden sold out the United States of America to make money for himself. Senator Grassley and I will seek the truth to ensure accountability for the American people.”

"Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) and Rep. James Comer (R-Ky.) wrote to Gestapo chief Merrick Garland and his henchman, FBI top dog Christopher Wray, on Wednesday with some allegations that were positively explosive. Grassley and Comer say that they’ve “received legally protected and highly credible unclassified whistleblower disclosures” regarding a “criminal scheme involving then-Vice President Biden and a foreign national relating to the exchange of money for policy decisions.” Would anyone really be surprised if it were positively determined that Old Joe Biden was paid off by foreigners to set policy in a way they dictated?

"If this is accurate, it would involve not just Biden but Barack Obama as well. This is because the vice president doesn’t have any Constitutional authority to make policy decisions, and quite aside from the Constitution, Obama, who famously said, “Don’t underestimate Joe’s ability to f**k things up”, is unlikely to have given Old Joe any real authority to do anything. So if a foreign national was paying Old Joe to make policy decisions favorable to himself, they would almost certainly have had to have the approval of the Man Whose Tan Suit Was His Only Scandal.

The implications of this cannot be understated. It would be no surprise if Old Joe were confirmed as the corrupt kleptocrat he has long been reputed to be, but if this bribery scheme did end up reaching Obama, it could have a serious impact on the Democrats’ present electoral chances and even upon their continued ability to sew up elections left and right by means of ballot harvesting, mail-in ballots, and other present-day chicanery. The only problem is that the very agencies that ought to be energetically pursuing this issue are part of the same corrupt Leftist establishment that dominates Washington. Consequently, it’s not at all clear that the truth about this will ever come out.
