That was my thought too. If the Defense Production Act is to be invoked, let it be for steel fencing, razor wire, and other materiel to be installed along our southern border. You know, for actual defense of the nation.

Another article in recent days says that electric power will cost 66% +++ more than Nat Gas to heat homes.

This is just setting the stage to declare national climate emergency. This is about to get very serious.

I agree, climate lockdowns are coming, the WEF & UN demand it; scheduled rolling blackouts, gasoline rationing, meat rationing, all in the name of "saving the planet".

Overnight temps here in N Nevada high desert have already been as follows——

about 15 days ago—in sequence -—about 6 AM-—

12-—12-—14-—18-—22-—22-—26-—

Got up over 32 during day, but COLD at night.

Flower garden looks like it was nuked.

Got propane today-—80 gallons @ $2.50 a gallon===$200.

Power bills would be triple that -—or more

Correct, Rewire your house and pay the extra 70% over the price of Natural Gas.
Forget about living out here in the sticks when we lose power once in a while.

We would have to put in a large fireplace and cut down a few trees.

Dammit!! Whenever Trump did ANYTHING, the left had an army of lawyers bringing instant lawsuits to immediately halt whatever it was that Trump attempted to do.

The GOP doesn’t do anything to stop Biden, NOTHING!!

The money spigot continues to flow. Much of that money will be flowing right back into the pockets of our politicians. No wonder Washington thinks the economy is doing well.

The Gopee has passed the CR to fund the budget for a while to get through the holidays, so it won’t be the talk of family get-togethers.

Slash the dang budget and cut funding all over the board. We are in an election year. Someone, please speak for the middle-class voting public.

He’s getting the money from hard working Americans. Where else? Not from the inner city welfare queens or the criminal immigrants/invaders, since any money they have has already been looted from you and me.

I wonder who They will do when:

— Everything is on the grid (vehicles, all heating, etc)
— The grid is fueled by mostly green energy
— The grid collapses under the strain
— People freeze (in the north) or die of heat exposure (in the south)
— Commerce grinds to a halt
— Riots in cities over basic necessities

Of course, the same geniuses that broke the System will declare martial law and take away our freedoms in order to “fix” things. [/s]

One of the advantages of being a Democrat in charge is never having to admit you were wrong (or for that matter never even thinking you’re wrong).
