Green Policies Return the World to Coal
By Clarice Feldman October 10, 2021

There’s scarcely a place in the modern world that will not be feeling the high cost and discomfort of a shortage of energy supplies and their increasingly soaring prices. Lebanon already is. Due to a shortage of oil, the two power plants that supply 40% of that country’s electricity shut down. There is no electricity in Lebanon and will not be any for some days.
It’s an extreme case, but even the United Kingdom, the EU, the U.S., and China are running up against diminishing ability to obtain the necessary energy supplies to keep things running smoothly. Some of the shortages are due to accidents, like the cutting of an undersea cable to the UK, but most are due to green policies and stupid political choices, ironically shutting down oil and gas-fired power plants and fossil fuel exploitation and transport at the demand of the greens, who grossly overestimate both global warming and the ability of air, sun and water to take their place. Ironically, this means coal — the dirtiest possible fuel — is back in huge demand,
Despite an import ban on Australian coal, China relented and has begun unloading Australian coal because of an extreme power crunch. Coal is now in demand in Europe as gas prices soar and the EU’s energy policies are in large responsible:

“Confirmed via a hundred sources, Mike Pompeo is telling people he wants to primary Trump”
Who ARE these hundred sources? Haven’t we always said we don’t like it when sources are NEVER named?
It appears to me Jack likes to spread rumors. Here is what Pompeo has said about running.
March 2021 on Hannity at 5:20 Hannity asks Pompeo “If President Trump DOESN’T run in 2024 would you consider running? Pompeo says “I am always up for a good fight. I care deeply about America, you and I have been a part of the conservative movement for a long time now and I aim to keep at it.” Hannity then says “I will take that as a yes”

Well in May if what KSNT says is correct what Hannity takes as a yes, is shot down.
May 5, 2021 In an interview on KSNT they asked him if he would be running for president? They stated he said “No not at all.”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v6TVTLVqsm0
August 31, 2021 at about about 9:40 He is asked about 2024 He answers. “It certainly reminds me how important it is that good people step forward and put themselves forward and make the case to the American people about how they’ll behave so that certainly is a reminder how serious our elections really are and how much they matter that, that won’t be lost on me as Susan and I think and pray about what WE are going to do with the rest of OUR time here.” Then he goes into 2022 and that people take into account of who they vote for.

Now NO ONE knows what the future will bring but for NOW Pompeo is focused on getting the right people for 2022 so I don’t know why Jack is wanting to spread rumors at this point in time.
The question is, will the idiots in charge reverse course or double down? The idiots in charge here seem to double down on every failure.
GOOD NEWS! Keep an eye on him. Once he's experienced freedom, he's apt to do it again.
From what I’ve found, current rumors started here:
Rumors Swirl on Mike Pompeo’s Potential 2024 Primary of Donald Trump

Oct 10, 2021
Rumors have circulated on former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo’s interest in running for President in 2024, even in a GOP primary that would entail running against former President Donald Trump.
Conservative journalists Jack Posobiec and Raheem Kassam tweeted about rumors surrounding a potential primary challenge to Trump on the part of Pompeo, with other Republican activists alluding to rumors they had heard about Pompeo building a 2024 network. Pompeo’s lost a considerable amount of weight in recent months, with some pundits speculating he’s done so in preparation for a campaign for national office.
It’s unclear why Pompeo might think he’s capable of defeating Trump in a primary, with the former President able to boast of a full term of policy accomplishments and considerable loyalty from Republicans. While the Secretary of State was one of President Trump’s favorite cabinet members, he differs from the President and America First foreign policy advocates in considerable respects, such as consistent willingness to agitate in the direction of regime change wars in the Middle East.
Pompeo, who served as CIA director before receiving the Secretary of State position, consistently acted as a conduit for Never Trump neocons to enter the President’s administration and sabotage his America First policy vision, bringing in Bush administration alums Elliot Abrams and James Jeffrey.
Pompeo had slammed Trump as an “authoritarian” in 2016, comparing him to Barack Obama. A primary on his part against the former President might represent a return to his neoconservative and uber-hawkish roots, which would in turn entail a return to the Republican Party’s disastrous experiment with globalist regime-change wars and liberal internationalist foreign policy.

The author’s Twitter seems to reflect that he doesn’t believe Trump the election.

Former White House Strategist Steve Bannon, who is defying the January 6 committee subpoena, says “the return of Trump” will NOT be in 2024, but in 2022 “or maybe before, as we start the decertification process out in Arizona.”

Any attempt to decertify Arizona’s election on the part of the legislature would have the same legal standing as me administering the oath of office to my drunk neighbor and inaugurating him as president.
Might not be what you want to hear, but it doesn’t make it any less true.

The way I look at it is, if someone wants to run against Trump they have a right to do so, but I doubt their success.
Rainy today.
Southwest pilots, Seattle ferry drivers, and fellow workers across the country began mass "sick outs" this weekend to protest vaccine mandates. Oh, and contrary to @nytimes claim, Tyson Foods got sued for its vaccine mandate. I sued them.

This is the only thing I recall Pompeo and Mattis being accused of back in 2018

This is what Pompeo has to say about Mattis in 2020

Funny!
Great pics, Gran!
It was good to read all the comments about the rally after work last night!
It is also wonderful to see out TTF all coming together to enjoy it!
Does me heart good!
👍👍
“He must have had help.”
It appears to me a neighbor or someone close by knows who he belongs to and saw him and brought him back home. He did have a collar on to hook the leash to didn’t he. Was the collar still on him?
Jack P. is not spreading rumors.
Jenna Ellis commented last night on Twitter that Pompeo has been saying what Jack said since January.
Pompeo is saying one thing in public and something else in private—nothing unusual in politics.
And you can bet the GOP is desperate to run someone other than Trump, otherwise their own role in the ruination of America will be exposed for all to see.
Thanks for your contributions to the Trump Train.
Your timely and humorous graphics remind me of our dear friend Vlad the Inhaler, absent from the Trump Train due to family tragedy.
We miss Vlad terribly.

“Do we have here name & address where we can mail her pomegranate?”
If you notice that video was from 2017. She probably isn’t even around any longer because I expect she blew a head gasket from all her screaming. :-)

If you’re a Southwest customer who’s angry that your flight was cancelled:
Don’t direct your anger at the employees, who aren’t showing up for work.
Focus your attention on Southwest for mandating vaccines for a job employees were already doing.
