Climate “crisis” ? More like a socialist state repeatedly
threatening the use of nuclear weapons against the world because a smaller independent state won’t surrender it’s
territory.

This doomsday clock has been ticking closer to midnight since I was a boy in grade school back in the early 1970s. Back when we were still having nuclear drills where I would have to get under my desk and tug on the pigtail of the girl in front of me.

I'm thinking by now, the clock must have done at least three full revolutions since then.

We’ll, I can see the reason the clock has moved closer to midnight. People like Linda Graham and little Johnny Bolton could get us all blown to nuclear hell with their warmongering over Ukraine.

Can someone let me know when it’s 30 seconds to midnight?

I’d like to watch the ball dropping countdown.

Interestingly, Linda Graham and little Johnny Bolton haven’t threatened nuclear war and nuclear annilation on us. KGB Vlad has, though.
