Aspiring Governatorial Candidate Bans Trump From Maine Ballot

This is embarrasing and a joke at the same time. MESOS Bellows (don't forget Tom Saviello's hand in this is lawfare scam) trying to play in the big time, look tough and righteoius by banning the 45th president from the Maine 2024 ballot. But she shows her true colors by stipulating that her decision is pending the SCOTUS decision on the CO garbage case that will most likely be overturned. Her get out of jail free stipulation shows her innate weakness by weaponizing our legal system for…

A great piece from Rupert Darwell at RealClear Wire lays out the tragic scam being perpetrated on the British by the climate change, net zero zealots. British politicians, offshore wind investors and their lobbyists have destroyed the British energy market and overall economy. The lies about economic benefits of renerwable energy have come home to roost. The UK is suffering from massive increases in…

PUC Denies L&S Power's Contract

The PUC couldn't make L&S Power's lowball bid revisons work, so they killed the bid. I'm sure the folks at Longroad and Clearway are scrambling to fill the gap from this decision. My recollection is the bidding process outlines a procedure that allows for the "next bidder up" process to kick in if the selected bidder fails to close. The cost of this project has been seriously impacted by inflation, supply chain issues, and borrowing costs. similar to the issues facing offshore wind. …

The Ukraine, Neocon Insanity Continues With WW3 On The Horizon

It's hard to descirbe the level of insanity being manufactured around the debacle known as the war in Ukraine. But leave it to members of the brain trust at the Hudson Institute to take the trajectory of this avoidable conflict to a more apocalyptic outcome. The two clowns that wrote the attached article are proposing that Ukraine launch (with heavy NATO/US backing) a full-on attack on Crimea as a means of bringing Russia to its knees. Their reckless plan is a recipe for WW3. You can't come…

Green Energy Subsidies Will Cripple The US Economy

As anyone who has been paying attention to the scam known as green energy can tell you, the only justification for buidling out wind and solar farms is to harvest the lucrative Federal subsidies - billions of dollars in handouts to wealthy investors, many foreign in origin, while fueling the rise in electricity rates. With the passage of Biden's Inflation Reduction Act, a cruel joke pertpetrated by the Uniparty crowd in DC, the economics of more wind and solar farms will be…

Hunter "Crackhead" Biden Indicted On 9 Counts of Tax Cheating

It's a bad joke, but  I have no doubt this is all part of a grand scheme to get Dementia Joe and the Biden Crime Gang to the off ramp. AndHunter has a new excuse to avoid a Congressional deposition - see how that works.

Joe will not be the '24 nominee - they always have a plan - Republicans - not so much.

From Zerohedge:…

Lindsay Graham And Orphans To The Frontlines.

The young man pictured in the insert is a seventeen-year-old orphan who was conscripted into the Ukrainian army under their revised mobilization scheme. He was supposed to be deployed to the rear to assist with noncombat operations. Due in part to Ukraine's dire situation with shortages of manpower, he was deployed to an active frontline position where he was killed shortly after arriving. Please remember, this war did not have to happen. Without the US and…

Inflation Is Rampant In Elite Education - It's Not What You Think.

I guess all those brilliant minds coming out of Harvard, Yale and the rest of our heralded ivory towers have been living in la la land when it comes to their actual performance. Say hello to grade inflation. Grade inflation has been going on for a while, so the current generation of graduates (and maybe beyond) should come with an asterisk - kinda like baseball players during the steriod era when home runs were flying out of ballparks at alarming rates due to the "juice". Now we learn that…

The Raping Of Ukraine Is Underway

He writes, citing a source in the Ukrainian Ministry of Agriculture, that in November Soros Jr. and the head of Zelensky's office, Yermak, reached an agreement under which Ukraine would indefinitely and gratuitously transfer land to…

Maine Center For Public Interest Reporting – Three Part Series: A CRITICAL LOOK AT MAINE’S WIND ACT

******** IF LINKS BELOW DON'T WORK, GOOGLE THEM*********

(excerpts) From Part 1 – On Maine’s Wind Law “Once the committee passed the wind energy bill on to the full House and Senate, lawmakers there didn’t even debate it. They passed it unanimously and with no discussion. House Majority Leader Hannah Pingree, a Democrat from North Haven, says legislators probably didn’t know how many turbines would be constructed in Maine if the law’s goals were met." . – Maine Center for Public Interest Reporting, August 2010 https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-power-bandwagon-hits-bumps-in-the-road-3/From Part 2 – On Wind and Oil Yet using wind energy doesn’t lower dependence on imported foreign oil. That’s because the majority of imported oil in Maine is used for heating and transportation. And switching our dependence from foreign oil to Maine-produced electricity isn’t likely to happen very soon, says Bartlett. “Right now, people can’t switch to electric cars and heating – if they did, we’d be in trouble.” So was one of the fundamental premises of the task force false, or at least misleading?" https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-swept-task-force-set-the-rules/From Part 3 – On Wind-Required New Transmission Lines Finally, the building of enormous, high-voltage transmission lines that the regional electricity system operator says are required to move substantial amounts of wind power to markets south of Maine was never even discussed by the task force – an omission that Mills said will come to haunt the state.“If you try to put 2,500 or 3,000 megawatts in northern or eastern Maine – oh, my god, try to build the transmission!” said Mills. “It’s not just the towers, it’s the lines – that’s when I begin to think that the goal is a little farfetched.” https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/flaws-in-bill-like-skating-with-dull-skates/

Hannah Pingree on the Maine expedited wind law

Hannah Pingree - Director of Maine's Office of Innovation and the Future

"Once the committee passed the wind energy bill on to the full House and Senate, lawmakers there didn’t even debate it. They passed it unanimously and with no discussion.
