A major solar power plant project that was granted over a billion dollars in federal loans is on the road to closure, with energy experts blasting the project as a "boondoggle" that harmed the environment. In 2011, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) under former President Barack Obama issued $1.6 billion in loan guarantees to finance the Ivanpah Solar Power Facility, a green energy project that consists of three solar concentrating thermal power plants in California. The facility was touted by then-Secretary of Energy Ernest Moniz as an "example of how America is becoming a world leader in solar energy."...

EXCLUSIVE: Republican lawmakers are calling on the Trump administration to investigate President Biden's dismissal of a lawsuit claiming millions in fraud from a green energy project the day after the 2024 election. In 2011, President Barack Obama's Treasury Department granted Tonopah Solar Energy, LLC hundreds of millions of dollars for the construction of a green energy solar plant, the Crescent Dunes Solar Energy Project, in Nevada. However, the energy group was eventually sued by CMB Export, LLC for alleged fraud involving approximately $275 million of taxpayer dollars in a qui tam lawsuit, which is a case on behalf of the...

With everything happening at USAID and the unending flow of jaw-dropping, infuriating revelations, I hadn't really thought about anything else the DOGE team had on their plate as far as crawling up the internal pipes at other departments. But of course, they have other places to visit and get to work, and golly Nell, if it isn't sending the shivers up the spine of some folks. Over at the Labor Department, nervous Nellies have already filed lawsuits to keep Elon's Wonder Boys out before they ever step foot in the building. ... A coalition of labor groups filed suit Wednesday...

A light just went off for the left: Americans don’t like paying higher bills for a climate war. Duh. Democrats (well, some of them) are suddenly recognizing the message of November’s victories by Donald Trump and other Republicans. First, that voters are deeply skeptical of a pricey (and likely futile) war on climate at their expense. Second, that those victories will make it harder still to achieve the greenies’ fanciful agenda. Hmm: With luck, the entire climate agenda might just collapse, saving Americans billions and bolstering energy security across the nation. “The public is exhausted,” admits Assemblyman John McDonald (D-Albany)....

Canadians are in for another year of record-breaking heat, according to Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC)'s latest report. The Canadian Centre for Climate Change Modelling Analysis forecasts a global mean surface temperature of 1.45 C above pre-industrial levels in 2025. It's slightly cooler than the record-high temperature of 1.55 C above the level in 2024, but the forecast is certain that it will be hotter than any year on record before 2023. "High temperatures are forecasted to persist despite the end of the El Niño event that warmed the tropical Pacific and boosted global temperatures in 2023 and 2024,"...

A VW van sits among burned out homes, Jan. 9, 2025, in Malibu, Calif. Mark J. Terrill/AP Photo Preston Martin figured the retro blue Volkswagen van he slept in for a year during college was a goner, given that he parked it in a Malibu neighborhood just before the Palisades fire ripped through, reducing homes and cars to rubble and charred metal. So the surfboard maker was stunned to find that the vehicle survived. Not only that, a photo of the vibrant bus taken by an Associated Press photographer was circulating widely on television and online, giving viewers a measure...

The New Yorker’s Jane Mayer, whose history of lying puts serial liars to shame, has now been called out by Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) for lying in the latest feckless attack against Pete Hegseth, incoming President Trump’s nominee for Secretary of Defense. The same Jane Mayer who vigorously defended serial-butt-grabber and disgraced former Sen. Al Franken (D-MN) by smearing one of his alleged victims, has launched her own personal jihad against Hegseth by way of the *stretch* usual-usual unnamed sources *yawn* the fake media have been using against Republicans for decades. From where I sit, the hysterical Mayer is on...

As fires wreak havoc in California, Sen. Ed Markey, D-Mass., claimed in a post on X the catastrophe is “what a climate emergency looks like.” In another tweet, he took aim at President-elect Trump, asserting the incoming president has been bought off by the oil industry. “Trump has been bought for $1 billion by Big Oil. Just a payoff to kill the IRA and the Green New Deal. We know what will happen. More fires, more climate disasters, more death. The LA fires are preview of coming atrocities,” Markey declared in a post on X. Markey, who claims there is...

The Biden administration is banning certain natural gas water heaters from the market as part of its climate change agenda, a move critics say will jack up energy costs for low-income and senior households. The move in the final days of the administration will take non-condensing, natural gas-fired water heaters off the shelves by 2029 in a bid to reduce carbon dioxide emissions, which climate change advocates and President Biden say cause global warming. The new rules will require new tankless gas water heaters to use about 13% less energy than today’s least efficient tankless models. The rules apply to...

A stone box believed to have once held the bones of Jesus’ brother James is now on display in Atlanta, Georgia. If authentic, “The James Ossuary” is the only archaeological find directly attributed to Jesus’ family, according to Pullman Yards, the event venue displaying the object. The box is “considered the most significant item ever discovered from the time of Christ,” ... Etched into the 2,000-year-old limestone relic are the words, “James, son of Joseph, brother of Jesus” in ancient Aramaic, according to the U.K.’s Daily Mail.... “We’ve analyzed the likelihood of someone with this combination of names living in...

The Republican-led House Judiciary Committee took aim at a group of US asset managers over their involvement with a “woke ESG cartel” — adding pressure against environmental efforts by large investors. The committee, chaired by Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan, sent letters to 60 firms — including BlackRock, State Street and JPMorgan Asset Management — that are members of the Net Zero Asset Managers initiative, or NZAM, an international group of investors that signed on to a pledge to achieve net zero emissions by 2050. The letters, sent Friday, made claims in line with a committee report released on Dec. 13...

At least 17 military bases adjacent to Chinese-owned farmland across the US have experienced a rash of drone sightings in recent weeks... Mysterious drones have been reported near military bases in Hawaii and by installations in Utah, California, Maine and Florida — among other facilities scattered throughout the country. The Post previously identified 19 military bases that lie in close proximity to farmland bought up by Chinese-owned companies — a situation that has worried China analysts, who feared the Communist country would use the land to spy on US military operations. All of those facilities apart from Grand Forks Air...

“Call Her Daddy” host Alex Cooper was baffled over reports Vice President Kamala Harris’ failed campaign blew six figures to build a version of her California-based studio in Washington, DC for their controversial pre-election interview – claiming the makeshift “cardboard” set “wasn’t that nice.” The failed Democratic presidential nominee reportedly used $100,000 from her $1 billion war chest to build the fake set of the wildly popular podcast in a “random house” for the surprise Oct. 6 interview, which the Los Angeles-based podcaster laughed off as “hilarious.” “My studio that is gorgeous in Los Angeles doesn’t even cost six figures,...

the practice at the U.K. Met Office of inventing temperature averages from over 100 non-existent measuring stations. Helpfully, the Met Office went so far as to supply coordinates, elevations and purposes of the imaginary sites. Following massive interest across social media and frequent reposting of the Daily Sceptic article, the Met Office has amended its ludicrous claims. The move has not been announced in public, needless to say, since drawing attention to this would open a pandora’s box and run the risk of subjecting all the Met Office temperature claims to wider scrutiny. Instead, the Met Office has discreetly renamed...

The Biden administration boasted in an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) report released Thursday about the unprecedented prosecution of a California man for “smuggling greenhouse gases” across the border from Mexico and selling them online. Michael Hart, 58, was arrested in March and pleaded guilty in September to charges related to transporting refrigerants into the US to peddle on Facebook Marketplace, OfferUp and other online vendors between June and December 2022. Biden’s EPA touted the crackdown on Hart, the first-ever person charged for climate change-related bootlegging of refrigerants — namely, hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HFCs) — without the agency’s approval, in its report. When...

A customer, who rented a car on Hertz’s supposed ‘unlimited miles’ deal, found himself slapped with an eye-watering $10,000 bill after he clocked a staggering 25,000 miles in just one month. When he challenged the charge, Hertz did the unthinkable – they threatened to get him arrested. The saga began when the customer, who posted his encounter on TikTok, claimed his rental agreement clearly stated ‘unlimited miles.’ Yet, after his epic journey, he returned the car only to face a hefty charge and a raging Hertz employee. ‘Show me where it says I can’t charge you!’ barked the employee, adding...
