Between 2017 and 2021, Environmental Progress and I researched and published dozens of articles, testified before Congress, and authored a book, Apocalypse Never, arguing that weather-dependent renewables were making electricity increasingly unreliable and expensive, and making the United States, Europe, and Asia, dangerously dependent on natural gas.In response, there was an organized and somewhat successful effort by progressive climate-renewables activists to cut off our funding, censor us on Facebook, and prevent me from testifying before Congress.But now, one of the biggest boosters of natural gas and renewables, media giant Bloomberg, whose owner, Michael Bloomberg, is directly invested in natural gas...

Florida’s Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo issued new guidance for COVID-19 tests on Jan. 4 in a bid to reduce the strain on the state’s testing centers.So many people are using the centers the availability of tests is under pressure.“We are going to scale back,” Ladapo told reporters at a press conference.“We’re coming back to something sensible.”People have been flooding Florida testing sites, leading to long lines, he said.Instead of restricting testing, however, Ladapo said he would place a new emphasis on “high-value” testing against those of “low-value” in order to give priority to tests that would “likely change outcomes”...

Lenovo unveiled two new laptops made out of materials including recycled aluminum and “recycled black vegan leather,” delivered in packaging made from compostable bamboo and sugarcane. But beneath the environmentally friendly hardware there’s another innovation: Microsoft’s Pluton security processor. The new Lenovo ThinkPad Z13 and Z16, announced Tuesday at the International CES tech show in Las Vegas, are the first PCs to be unveiled with Pluton since Microsoft announced the security architecture in November 2020. Pluton takes security technologies that otherwise exist in a separate hardware component in Windows PCs and integrates them directly into the central processing unit. In...

“My son, if thou be surety for thy friend, if thou hast stricken thy hand with a stranger, Thou art snared with the words of thy mouth, thou art taken with the words of thy mouth. Do this now, my son, and deliver thyself, when thou art come into the hand of thy friend; go, humble thyself, and make sure thy friend” (Proverbs 6:1-3 KJV).

[1:45 video clip] "They got to Cruz, will he now betray America? Did they get all of his cell calls and texts and made a deal with the devil, to destroy our nation? Evil is rising, stay armed my friends. If Manchin and a few others hold the line we can still avoid a ‘revolution’ … But Cruz is now a worthless low life to me. No other way to see it now."

"There are many genuine threats facing humanity. None of them require authoritarianism or the infringement of civil liberties. A recent study published in American Political Science Review, a quarterly peer-reviewed academic journal published by Cambridge University, begins with a teasing question: “Is authoritarian power ever legitimate?” For many, the answer is clearly no, concedes the study’s author—Ross Mittiga, an assistant professor of political theory at the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile. But Mittiga, in the abstract to the study, suggests otherwise: ..."

For whatever reason, I was thinking back to my childhood, and my thoughts went to climbing trees in the back yard. That exhilaration of being 100 feet give or take above the ground in a wind that bent the top with me clinging to it while looking beyond my immediate neighborhood was, in retrospect, formative. In later years, my parents admitted to being alarmed when they finally saw where my shouts of 'hello' were coming from, and decided "say nothing, just wave back, he'll be down eventually for dinner".I think we've lost something....

"The world in 2021 has surrendered to panic and thrown itself into the arms of authoritarianism in search of an impossible security The 2014 film Robocop, directed by Jose Padilha from a screenplay by Joshua Zetumer, Nick Schenk, Edward Neumeier and Michael Miner imagines a near future in which the global hegemony of the United States as the sole superpower is reinforced by the overseas military presence of advanced artificially intelligent robotic soldiers. It was fascinating that the woke mentality of the screenwriters was bent on attributing to caricatures of conservatives the disinformation, agitation and propaganda typical of the liberal...

"A video put out by La Quinta Columna reveals that Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) “vaccines” contain “nano-octopus” and other microparticles that have the ability to self-assemble once injected into the body. The Wireless Nano-Sensors Network (WNSN) that is generated through this process is laid out in further detail in a paper published in the Journal of Communications. “WNSN is the network interconnecting microdevices and nano-nodes or nano-sensors. Nano-nodes, which are devices with a nanometric size, are composed of nano-processor, nano-memory, nano-batteries, nano-transceiver, nano-antenna and nano-sensors, which operate at nano-scale level,” explains the Daily Exposé. ..."

"A botched abortion that is now part of a medical malpractice lawsuit is under further scrutiny following the release of the 911 call from facility staff. Markeisha Hemsley is suing Capital Women’s Services in Washington, D.C., Moore ObGyn in Maryland, and nurse Khalilah Jefferson for $30 million, claiming that a late-term abortion left her potentially infertile. Hemsley suffered a lacerated cervix, a three-inch tear in her uterus, and massive internal hemorrhaging, as well as an incomplete procedure. Jefferson, who committed the abortion, did not remove the baby’s head. Instead, it was pushed through the hole in Hemsley’s uterus, and ended...

“The January 6 Epiphany Insurrection” (Matthew 2:1-12) It’s January 6. A group of visitors travel to the nation’s capital. They are there to raise questions about who the nation’s real leader is. This does not sit well with some in positions of power. They consider people raising such questions in a bad light. They think of those who challenge their authority as “insurrectionists” who need to be put down. No, I’m not talking about what happened on January 6 one year ago today. That was when a group of protestors went to Washington, D.C., to raise questions about who really...

The North Korean state news agency on Thursday said a missile fired into the sea off the east of the Korean Peninsula was a hypersonic weapon. It’s Pyongyang’s second reported test of a hypersonic gliding missile to date — after one it claimed in September — and is the first missile launch from North Korea since October. North Korea’s claim of a successful hypersonic test Wednesday has yet to be independently confirmed. On Thursday, Japan’s defense minister, Nobuo Kishi, told Japanese media that the missile was not hypersonic, but a “new type of ballistic missile” not launched by the North...

Unvaccinated people in the NT will be subject to tough new lockout rules after the Territory recorded its highest number of COVID-19 cases to date... "The fully vaccinated can continue as they were.
