Excerpt from article by Chris Hedges via ZeroHedge:

Empires in terminal decline leap from one military fiasco to the next. The war in Ukraine, another bungled attempt to reassert U.S. global hegemony, fits this pattern. The danger is that the more dire things look, the more the U.S. will escalate the conflict, potentially provoking open confrontation with Russia.

Excerpt from article in ZeroHedge:

The Biden Administration's proposed transition to "net zero" via wind and solar power is not only not easy, but is a total fantasy. It likely cannot occur at all without dramatically undermining our economy, lifestyle and security, and it certainly cannot occur at anything remotely approaching reasonable cost. At some point, the ongoing forced transition will crash and burn.

The USDA has circumvented Congressional oversight and substantially increased the SNAP food assistance program by $171 billion from 2019 to 2022. The number of participants increased by 6 million in that time.

Could any of these new participants be illegals? How could this be happening when we have 3.5% unemployment?

JHK is spot on with his new commentary on the military disaster in Ukraine.

Well done report on the status of US renewable projects and the issues challenging further development. The Northern Maine Trans Corridor and Horse Mountain wind development must be challenged due their excessive cost ($4-5 billion for 300-350MW) and environmental impact. Here's the Epoch Times article:…

Anyone following the Covid scam being run by Pfizer, Moderna, FDA and CDC will not be surprised by the many revelations exposed in an undercover report by Project Veritas with a senior Pfizer executive. 

Here's the report from the Gateway Pundit:…

A good summation from the National Review of the unnecessary drive to decarbonize and the race to adopt electric vehicles.

Here's a sampling of some of the narcissistic lunatics at Davos describing and promoting their New World Order. In one sense, it's almost comical, but in another it's extremely threatening to your freedom and sanctity of life. FYI.......Al Gore is deranged.…

From ZeroHedge:

His attempt this week to pull off a "Greta moment" and shed his notorious stiffness resulted in an unhinged rant wherein he claimed that carbon emissions and greenhouses gases are trapping "as much extra heat as would be released by 600,000 Hiroshima class atomic bombs exploding every single day on the earth."

Watch this narcissistic loser spew his alarmist…

An article from The American Thinker reporting on new climate studies exposing the flawed (corrupt) science behind the IPCC's climate alarmist models.

Another climate hoax in a long line of perpetual hoaxes to feed the sheeple the climate alarmist/WEF narrative.

The Biden administration is putting the subversion of our immigration system on steroids:

It's good to laugh now and then. 

We've seen the Feds go after the Maine lobster industry for supposedly endangering NA Right Whales, but wind developers off the Jersey coast are not a problem as whale after whale wash ashore. Here's the latest on this blatant hypocrisy:

I have no respect for this consummate opportunist disguised as a U.S Senator. He reeks of smarminess and grift. Now, he's all in on the war in Ukraine until "Putin is gone." And we paid to fly this gladhander to Kiev for his 5 minute photo op with the leader of democracy (sarc.) in Ukraine. Here's a report on his junket:…

From ZeroHedge:

In a recently published science paper, Dr. Wallace Manheimer said it would be the end of modern civilization. Writing about wind and solar power he argued it would be especially tragic “when not only will this new infrastructure fail, but will cost trillions, trash large portions of the environment, and be entirely…

So, if you're making $300k a year, you still qualify for a $7500 tax break on your luxury EV. Notice the MSRP for qualified models - $55,000 -$80,000. A gift to the auto industry.
