Distraught woman at AOC town hall urges 'eating babies' to fight climate change

Last month, 12-year-old Amari Allen appeared on television to share how she had been brutalized by racist white boys at Immanuel Christian School in Springfield, Virginia. .... When the story first broke, left-wing politicians and activists raged. Rep. Rashida Tlaib published a personalized message on Twitter to the girl: “You see, Amari, you may not feel it now but you have a power that threatens their core. I can’t wait to watch you use it and thrive.” On Twitter, some even found a way to blame the Trump administration, noting ominously that Vice President Mike Pence’s wife, Karen, teaches art...

We learn from the press today that Chm Schiff had prior knowledge and involvement in the WB complaint. He withheld this info from the American people and even from the Intel Cmte. In light of this news, it’s hard to view impeachment as anything aside from an orchestrated farce.

Full lead in: Top climate scientist breaks ranks with 'consensus' 'Our models are Mickey-Mouse mockeries of the real world' An MIT-trained scientist who has specialized for nearly 25 years in abnormal weather and climate change has published a book explaining why he believes the data underpinning global-warming science are unreliable. Mototaka Nakamura, who earned a doctorate of science from MIT, has conducted his work at prestigious institutions such as MIT, Georgia Institute of Technology, NASA, Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology and Duke University, reports the website Electroverse. In his book "The Global Warming Hypothesis is an Unproven Hypothesis,"...

The black high school student who accused three white male classmates of pinning her down and cutting off her dreadlocks has 'acknowledged' that she made the allegation up, according to her school.

Three white boys held down an African American girl and cut her hair at recess, and somehow, it’s Karen Pence’s fault. Oh, except it didn’t actually happen. And in fact, the story was pretty fishy right from the beginning, and people should have known. First, an accusation was made by a black female student at Immanuel Christian School in Virginia. She alleged that three white boys had held her down at recess, insulted her, and cut her dreadlocks off with scissors. This alleged incident supposedly happened at Immanuel Christian, a private Christian school where Second Lady Karen Pence happens to...

An alleged anti-black hate incident at a Washington, D.C.-area middle school that media outlets tried to link to Vice President Mike Pence’s wife was a hoax, the school said Monday.Amari Allen, 12, accused three white classmates earlier in September of pinning her down and cutting off her dreadlocks during an attack at Immanuel Christian School, a private school in Springfield, Virginia.  “They said my hair was nappy and I was ugly,” Allen, a sixth-grader, told NBC Washington in an emotional interview.The story received national attention not just because of the attack, but also because the school has a high-profile faculty member: Karen Pence.The...

UPDATE, 09/30/19, 11:52 a.m. Eastern: According to The Washington Post's Joe Heim, Amari Allen and her family have admitted that her whole tale about being the victim of an alleged racist bullying case was completely false. Heim said that she and her family would be releasing a statement admitting to concocting this fable and apologizing to the white students they falsely accused of harming her.

The sixth-grade girl at a private Virginia school who accused three classmates last week of forcibly cutting her hair now says the allegations were false, according to statements from the girl’s family and the principal at Immanuel Christian School in Springfield. School officials met with the girl and her family Monday morning before releasing the statement. The 12-year-old, who is African American, said three white boy students held her down in a school playground a week ago during recess, covered her mouth, called her insulting names and used scissors to cut her hair. The grandparents of the girl, who are...

A group of 500 scientists and other experts have penned a letter to the UN declaring that there is no climate crisis and that there needs to be an open discussion on the issue of climate change. “We urge you to follow a climate policy based on sound science, realistic economics and genuine concern for those harmed by costly but unnecessary attempts at mitigation,” they write. Those who contributed to the letter and research were led by CLINTEL (The Climate Intelligence Foundation) co-founder Guus Berkhout. Most of those who signed the letter are scientists, professors, former directors of environmentalist groups,...

When it comes to combating climate change, a lot of people who talk the talk don’t actually walk the walk, particularly if it means traveling on foot instead of by car. While Americans are willing to make convenient changes to reduce the carbon emissions that scientists say are driving climate change and creating unpredictable weather patterns, they resist when faced with inconvenience, according to the results of a new poll by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research. About nine in 10 Americans said they often or always turn off lights when they’re not needed, according to the poll....

In the past 10 days, concerns about climate change have reached hysterical levels, with teenage activist Greta Thunberg testifying before Congress and schoolkids all over the country released from class to protest and block streets (a scientifically proven method of creating sympathy for one's cause). People, especially young people, are demanding "legislative" solutions to climate change – and they want it now. So let's look at this logically. Let's assume for the moment anthropocentric climate change is real and this "climate emergency" will indeed doom the planet in 12 years. Let's assume, as children are being taught in school, that...

The Duke of Sussex says there is "a race against time" to halt global warming, adding that he is "troubled" by climate change deniers. "I don't believe that there's anybody in this world that can deny science," he said. He called it "an emergency", adding "the world's children are striking" after teenage activist Greta Thunberg led a worldwide protest on Friday. Prince Harry is visiting Botswana as part of a tour of southern Africa. He says it was the place he went to "to get away from it all" after his mother's death. "This last week, led by Greta, the...

There have been five Category 5 hurricanes — all of which made landfall — in the Atlantic since 2016. Five. Before that, the Atlantic basin had gone eight years without one of these monster tropical cyclones. Eight. The ugly truth, according to climate scientists, is that we have no reason not to expect another Dorian. Or another Harvey. Or another Michael. We are running out of time to curb man-made impacts on climate. On Monday, the 16-year-old climate activist Greta Thunberg told world leaders at the UN Climate Action Summit in New York, starkly: “You are failing us. But the...

The Trump campaign said the whistleblower complaint is "an even bigger hoax than the Russia delusion," according to a statement released Thursday. The response comes after the release of the whistleblower complaint on Thursday, which alleges that President Trump sought to enlist Ukraine's help in the 2020 election by mounting a corruption investigation against former Vice President Joe Biden. "This whistleblower complaint is an even bigger hoax than the Russia delusion," said the Trump campaign's National Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany. "It’s built on second-hand information echoed by the biased fake news media." The press secretary said in the release that...

Issued on: September 25, 2019 InterContinental New York Barclay New York, New York 4:28 P.M. EDT PRESIDENT TRUMP: Thank you very much. Thank you. Well, thank you all for being here. We’ve had a tremendous three days in New York, at the United Nations. I want to thank the Secretary-General. It’s been really incredible what’s been taking place. And he’s been a fantastic host to a lot of countries. The meetings I had on a bilat, or close, were pretty staggering. I think we set a new record, but you’ll have to check that out. The — we met very,...

A few days ago, the Frank Report reviewed the timeline in the Jessie Smollett case – and the reasons why Cook County Circuit Court Judge Michael P. Toomin appointed Dan Webb to serve as a Special Prosecutor in the matter. Dan Webb As we noted at the time, Webb was appointed to investigate allegations that Jussie Smollett staged a fake racist, anti-gay attack against himself – and to determine why the Cook County State Attorney’s Office dismissed all the charges on which he had been indicted. So, what kinds of charges could Smollett be facing as a result of Dan...

Things take longer to happen than you think they will, but then they happen much faster than you thought they could. The destructive impacts of the climate crisis are now following the trajectory of that economics maxim as horrors long predicted by scientists are becoming realities. More destructive Category 5 hurricanes are developing, monster fires ignite and burn on every continent but Antarctica, ice is melting in large amounts there and in Greenland, and accelerating sea-level rise now threatens low-lying cities and island nations. Tropical diseases are spreading to higher latitudes. Cities face drinking-water shortages. The ocean is becoming warmer...

This is my most concise expose of climate fraud. Please pass it around to everyone you know and your elected officials. The video is short, but cuts right to the heart of the matter.https://youtu.be/8455KEDitpU Tony Heller

Once confined to the small scientific community of climate researchers and ecological economists, the idea of degrowth is now blazing into the mainstream. Not surprisingly, people are trying to figure out what to make of it. Is it an inspiring idea that points the way to a better economy? Or is it a mad notion that’s sure to plunge us all into poverty? Degrowth is a planned reduction of total energy and material use to bring the economy in line with planetary boundaries, while improving people’s lives by distributing income and resources more fairly. The scientific case for degrowth is...
