That is such bull shiite.
I don’t even need to read that article to know that they couldn’t be more wrong.
Sigh.
they plan to market Brawndo worldwide
Tillerson is a friggin saboteur doing his best to undermine Presdent Trump. If Trump holds his course on pulling out of the ridiculous accord, history will show he had great wisdom & foresight. The saboteur globalists don’t want that!
I call bullshit on that.
Great news, we have no reason to be in it then.
Many accords like this wind up forcing expensive compliance by Western countries while making excuses for other countries to do anything they want to environmentally.
You are right, Russian and China are both filthy.
When Obama had the Senate, they didn't ratify it. Its not going to happen under Trump.
For fun, try searching google or bing on "pollution map" and think about what turns up.
Well that’s nice.
The US constitution says otherwise
“...other countries in attendance, agreed the “agreement is irreversible and non-negotiable.”
Well bless their hearts... Their so cute when they think they have any authority. Come TRY to enforce it.
Translation: their taxes will skyrocket, while the China, Russia, and India continue to pollute on a Biblical scale.
No news here. Tillerson is repeating what has been Trump’s position all along: renegotiate and we can talk. Otherwise, no. As for the Accord being “non-negotiable”, well, that sort of answers the question, doesn’t it? This part, at least, is irreversible and non-negotiable: no Senate ratification, no treaty. Period.
Similarly, the government of the United States does not have the authority to enter into an agreement with a foreign nation in any way that cannot be undone by a future government of the United States. To think otherwise is to grant power to the government which is nowhere to be found in the Constitution.
True. But the whole thing is just a handshake agreement in the first place. Obama never submitted to the Senate to be ratified as a treaty, which would be legally binding on us.
Heck, Obama never submitted the deal with Iran to be ratified as a treaty either. I would love to know how Obama was authorized to send a planeload of cash, actual currency from various countries, over to Iran as part of the deal.
The terms of the Paris Agreement are set in stone, the EU, China and Canada agreed at a summit in Montreal this weekend,
So we are obligated to do what these countries have decided?? Really??? They decided it is set in stone??? So we have to comply??? This doesn’t make sense.........
We’ll then, bye. We’re out.
Heck, so what if it were a treaty that actually WAS ratified by the Senate? My Choctaw folks have a lot of experience with signing a treaty with people in Washington, D.C. Not usually worth the paper it was written on.
The U.S. should just ignore the whole thing. Forget what Obama said or did and tell the Paris folks that things had changed.
