Newsom: Power Grid’s ‘Ready to Make the Change’ to Green and Needs to Do So Quicker
Breitbart ^ | 09/16/2022 | Ian hatchett

Posted on 09/16/2022 6:09:13 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

During a portion of an interview aired on Friday’s “NBC Nightly News,” California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) argued that even though a sizable percentage of the electric grid is powered by natural gas, the grid is “ready to make the change” to a 100% green energy grid and “needs to advance that change with much more urgency,” which California is doing.

NBC News Correspondent Cal Perry asked, “A large percentage of the grid is still coming from natural gas. It’s over 35%. Is the grid ready to make that change to green?”

How do the illegals even know when they have crossed the border?

When they get their welcome to California gift baskets and checks.

He doesn’t know anything about the grid or about energy.

“Newsom is either criminally insane or despicably cynical.”

Being a life~long elite democrat covers both.

Insane and cynical!

If, if only you didn’t try to build a freaking choo choo to nowhere and used that money to shore up the power grid.

Naps is beautiful. I lived there 4 months but above and in the “mountains”. I actually filled up some one gal jugs from the free Calistoga springs faucet. Best regards. The best thing we can do at this point is to live nicely and send the rest to our offspring.

Ok, had to look up ‘Ungaro’ ... no idea what that was. Found out it’s a designer so I learned something new today - checked out Summer 2022 line ... the ‘hair gel fag’ is definitely an Ungaro type even without a spring frock. LOL

For SURE he’s bucking for the POTUS gig. I find him absolutely nauseating & that’s before he starts showing his idiocy by opening his trap & yapping.

I always call him Governor hair gel. He is slick and dangerous. Could he beat Ron Desantis in a 2024 presidential election? Yes.

Gay as an Ungaro spring frock was a verbal meme 20 years ago. On the very fun Usenet newsgroups (raw texting) which are long gone.

Did anyone notice the VERY STRANGE footage of him on TV today, wearing a sports jacket or suit coat, but had the collar and lapels all turned up, not normal? Talking about 125 degrees in September in CA, and thousands of heat records. But dressed like he is too cold or something?

Just thought it was very weird.

Meanwhile... Or, actually last winter BEFORE there were any European gas shortages, Germany would have to on cold calm nights import substantial electricity.

Some liberal creepozoids KNOW they are lying, and do not care. Others believe what they say, but really know nothing other than the lies. Some, when confronted with reality, with the truth, simply shut down.

The ones that only remain in their little enclaves (physically, and / or on the internet) never consider that there is something else, something outside of their ‘reality.’

I discovered many moons ago that consistent repetition of facts, without politics or opinion, can sometimes break through the insanity. Since the leftist creeps use climate as the tool to power, I remind them, individually and in small groups, that Chicago and New York were under a mile of ice not too long ago, and that the ice will return (and there is NOTHING we can do to stop the coming cold). I had a sign in my office: Large Carbon Footprints Make For Happy Trees. I explain that C02 is Plant Food, and the real ‘greening’ of the Earth comes from more and more C02. If they continue to listen, I explain about the Carbon Cycle, hydrocarbons, that they are not ‘fossil’ fuels, just a natural part of the universe. I talk about the oceans of hydrocarbons on the moons of Jupiter and Saturn. Those oceans could not possibly be from ancient dinosaurs and savannah.

Newsom has no more charisma than Walter Mondale or Michael Dukakis who BOTH flopped as presidential candidates.

Newsom's supposed strength is a smoke & mirrors product of the rigged California voting system.

Compared to DeSantis he has "failure" stamped all over him. He's neither intelligent nor strategic.

The questions I want answered are, when this flops will anyone responsible suffer any consequences?
And, since the “Green Energy” projects are too ugly or cannot meet CA environmental standards where do they intend to build them?
So far as I am concerned NV is off limits.
Of course our current NV Gov. is a Newsom, um, what very accurate word may I use without being banned, “Disciple”?

Usenet and the NNTP protocol is still out there, but very few still use it. They instead use forums, Facebook, Twitter, etc.

Can someone explain to me what is the urgency? Is there some Chinese Communist loan shark that’s waiting behind the scenes to cut off his testicles with a blowtorch if he doesn’t make this happen by a certain date?

"Newsom: Power Grid’s ‘Ready to Make the Change [??? emphasis added]’ to Green and Needs to Do So Quicker"

Newsom didn't say that the grid was ready for 100% green energy. He included "to make the change" vague wording to sidestep the reality that the grid is not ready imo.

Speaking of "ready," I understand that Newsom's train is running late.

Insights welcome.

The expression on Newsome’s face, and his face in genersl, is exactly as vacant and twisted as the character Christian Bale portrayed in the movie America Psycho. Exactly.
