He will take full advantage of it to turn fascist and forbid driving in gas-powered cars, heating our homes with oil, using gas-powered lawnmowers, using air conditioners, and taking hot showers.

None of that will affect the ruling elite.

“Emergency based on what exactly.”

Unicorn farts?

“…much as former President Donald Trump diverted more than $18 billion in Pentagon funding to build a wall on the U.S. border with Mexico”

Uh, nice backhanded whataboutism, Ben. Trouble is the border wall is for an ACTUAL emergency, not this made up “climate” one.

Well, if an 'emergency' of Covid-19 could shutter people, mask them, isolate them and impel them to succumb to
government injections, could not a 'climate emergency' be perpetrated to compel people to submit to any atrocity?

So now president will “rule” by declaring national emergencies on any subject he needs to in order to progress his agenda.

I don’t think that’s what was intended by the founders.

"We should live in caves and eat nuts and berries and get the national population down below 50 million"

Don't forget walking down to the government food distribution queue.

Brandon agrees, but thinks those who vote Republican should be 'allowed' to lead the way in population reduction.

What screwed up the grid earlier this year was mismanagement by plant operators. The failure to winterize, to perform first echelon maintenance, contributed directly to plants going down.

I think it should mean NO air conditioning in government buildings during the summer.

Starting with the WH and the Capitol.

Had the Founding Fathers foreseen the invention of central air conditioning, they would have definitely included term limits in the Constitution.

Maybe eating food and drinking water and living in a house, and owning a car, will be prohibited


Only by certain ethic and income levels will be included. White, income below $1.5 million yearly will be hardest hit, except if they are certifiably gay and sterile. Somebody has to take out the garbage.

It means power outages in states with 100+ degrees heat. It means finding the elderly an disabled dead in their homes from lack of adequate heat or air conditioning. It means more fuel shortages and reduced food supplies. It means more suffering and pain for the poor and needy. All so democrat millionaires can masterbate over “the good” they’ve done to protect their precious “climate change” fairy tale.

It also failed due to the failure to identify natural gas lines as ESSENTIAL to the system. Many of our natural gas line pumps went offline because they were not marked or identified as “essential” so when the system started failing, the powers that be started turning off and shutting down “non-essential” systems...unfortunately, that included many of the natural gas supply line pumps, which of course were needed to keep the natural gas generators online!!

We had a system failure from many angles, including the process to ask for an “exception” to the “required” winterization. After 2011, we “required” everyone to properly winterize, which was nothing more than a paper tiger, because anyone could get an exception to this requirement by simply filling out a piece of paper. This was IGNORANT!

We need a complete, top-down, review of our system grid and suppliers to ensure that all pumps, supply lines, plants (even those currently mothballed) can be used in an emergency WITH guaranteed fuel supplies. Personally, I think Texas should tell the Feds to suck our gas and we should stockpile coal as needed to restart mothballed coal plants (if/when needed). Are the Feds really going to take us to court for saving people’s lives, because we restarted a coal plant in the middle of a natural disaster?!?

I want to see how that goes over in the public view!

Which is really becoming more interesting. If Tuckers information from a WH source that Joe Biden has to be given medication to keep him from “acting like a child” are any of his executive orders legal? Is he legally “of sound mind” which means mentally competent, including under the influence of alcohol or DRUGS to sign legal documents?

I had a realtor friend who took clients out to dinner BEFORE they signed a purchase contract. They all drank quite a bit. Several weeks later they had buyers remorse, not only did they get out of the contract, he realtor was sued and lost her license.

This Climate Emergency B.S. is coming from a guy who can’t do things he’s required and capable of doing but he thinks he’s actually control the weather. Joe Biden is Insane.

During one of the early grid failures - in New York - )60's or early 70's) power was needed to 'start' the power plants - they needed 'a match' and that match was an old coal fired plant that got the New York grid up and runnng.

That is the purpose of abortion. Population reduction. It started with Margaret Sanger. Yeah, she wanted to decrease the black population, but then it was picked up by the Democrats and carried by them to where we are today.
