Your Fault: Hotcoldwetdry Pushing Dangerous Snakes To Coastlines

By William Teach April 3, 2026 – 7:15 am

It’s wild what a 1.7F increase in global temperatures since 1850 can do, eh?

Climate change will push venomous snakes towards highly populated coastlines, study finds

Climate change will drive venomous snakes away from arid interiors and towards densely populated coastlines, increasing the risk of deadly encounters for millions of people, a new global study says.

It notes that snake populations will broadly move towards higher latitudes and more heavily populated areas as rising temperatures make their current habitats less suitable.

In Australia, the shift is expected to be especially pronounced along the east coast where snakes will move from the arid centre into more heavily populated southern areas.

The research published in the journal PLOS Neglected Tropical Diseases models the habitats of all 508 medically important venomous snake species and projects how their ranges will shift by 2050 and 2090.

“Before this study surprisingly little was known about the exact distribution of many medically important snakes, even some widespread ones that cause many bites,” the study notes.

Yeah, I think we can stop there, once they mention “models”.

It draws on public and private databases, citizen science platforms, museum records, scientific literature and expert observations, with all data vetted by an international panel of around 30 specialists.

And then they claim this will all happen in the future. All over the world. It’s all very culty.

Unhinged Federal Judge Overturns Old Deportation Order For Convicted Murderer

By William Teach April 3, 2026 – 7:00 am

I had actually planned to post on another wacko detained by ICE, but, this is even crazier

Immigration judge overturns decades-old deportation order against Subu Vedam

Taking the stand and fighting for his freedom turned into a victory for Subramanyam Vedam.

An immigration judge on Thursday morning granted Vedam’s appeal, allowing him to remain in the United States and overturning a deportation order that was first issued more than 30 years ago.

In issuing the ruling, the judge said Vedam “does not pose a danger to the community” and pointed to his actions while incarcerated as evidence of “good moral character.”

The judge cited a long list of accomplishments during Vedam’s decades in prison, including educating himself and starting a literacy program.

The Department of Homeland Security now has until May 4 to appeal the judge’s decision to the Board of Immigration Appeal.

Wait, what was that about incarceration?

Much of his testimony focused on his criminal history, primarily between 1980 and 1983, with Vedam describing himself at the time as “young and stupid.”

Vedam was convicted in 1983 of first-degree murder in the shooting death of Thomas Kinser. During the hearing, he denied shooting Kinser or anyone else, saying he had been smoking marijuana and drinking beer with Kinser and was shocked to later learn of his death.

That murder conviction was vacated last year. However, Vedam also acknowledged that in the early 1980s he sold LSD, charges to which he later pleaded no contest.

Murder, huh? But, he’s saying he’s supposed to be allowed to stay in the U.S. because he’s been in prison for 43 years instead of being repatriated to India. Seriously, multiple laws say he is to be deported after his jail stint. A judge can’t randomly change that law. He’s not an America. Judges like Judge Adam Panopoulos are unhinged and need to be yanked from the bench.

President of Wisconsin’s largest mosque detained by US immigration agents

The president of Wisconsin’s largest mosque was detained by federal immigration agents, drawing accusations from local officials and religious leaders that the arrest was motivated by his statements against Israel.

Salah Sarsour, a Palestinian-born legal permanent resident of the United States, was taken into custody by nearly a dozen US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents on Monday in Milwaukee after he left his home, according to the Islamic Society of Milwaukee.

Supporters called for his immediate release on Thursday and his attorneys said he was detained on the grounds that he is a foreign policy threat. His attorneys say the claims have no merit.

Instead, they believe Sarsour, 53, was targeted for speaking out against Israel and for a conviction as a minor by Israeli military courts, which have faced scrutiny over allegations of limited due process and high conviction rates of Palestinians. Israel rejects those claims. The offenses included allegedly throwing rocks at Israeli officers, according to attorney Munjed Ahmad.

Could it be that he’s a Jew hater and a supporter of a US designated terrorist organization, Hamas?

(Amy Meek) This isn’t some innocent “community leader.” Sarsour is a documented Hamas supporter with a rap sheet going back to the 1990s, one that U.S. authorities let slide while he built mosques, businesses, and a jihad fundraising machine right here on American soil.

This is the enemy within that patriots have been warning about for years: a Hamas financier who used green cards and furniture stores as cover to send cash to terrorists, then rebranded as a “Palestine advocate.”

Decades of Direct Hamas Ties:

Jailed 8 months in Israel in 1995 for supporting Hamas — where he buddyed up with Adel Awadallah, West Bank commander of Hamas’s Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades.

Named in 2001 FBI memos as a Hamas fundraiser tied to the Holy Land Foundation (biggest terror-financing conviction in U.S. history).

There’s more at the tweet. Hamas should not be in the U.S.

Fish Wrap Rather Upset GOP Looking To Protect Fossil Fuels Companies From Climalawfare Suits

By William Teach April 2, 2026 – 3:45 pm

The complaint from the NY Times might have some grounds if all the employees and the company itself had stopped using fossil fuels. Same way with all Warmists

Republicans Seek Protections for Oil Giants Against Climate Lawsuits

Republicans at the state and federal levels are working to shield fossil fuel companies from laws and legal claims that aim to make them pay for some of the damage caused by climate change.

Lawmakers and oil-industry advocates are running a two-track campaign, in statehouses and in Congress, to pass laws to protect companies from paying some of the costs of intensified wildfires, storms, floods and other effects of global warming. The goal is broad immunity, similar to what Congress granted to gun manufacturers two decades ago.

The effort comes as major fossil fuel companies including Exxon, Chevron and ConocoPhillips face a wave of lawsuits from cities, states and individuals who say the companies knew their products would dangerously warm the planet.

The companies, which did not respond to a request for comment, are also battling new “climate superfund” laws, so far enacted in Vermont and New York, that hold them liable for emissions. New York is seeking $75 billion over 25 years. Similar laws are under consideration in a dozen other states.

Last week, Utah became the first state to enact a law that shields companies from climate related claims. Republican lawmakers in at least four other states, including Oklahoma, Louisiana, Tennessee, and Iowa, are working on similar bills.

Most of the climate cult lawsuits and laws are winning during the first round, but, losing on appeal, because they are trying to apply state laws to national  issues. As a NJ judge said when killing a lawsuit by the State of NJ

“Because Plaintiffs seek damages for alleged harms caused by interstate and international emissions and global warming, their claims cannot be governed by state law. Under our federal constitutional system, states cannot use their laws to resolve claims seeking redress for injuries allegedly caused by out-of-state and worldwide emissions,” Hurd said in the decision.

I’m still rather shocked that none of the lawyers for the fossil fuels companies ever argue “have the plaintiffs stopped using fossil fuels themselves?” Yeah, I’m not a lawyer, but, that seems rather important.

Washington Post Editorial Board Lauds Artemis II Launch, Notes It’s A Stepping Stone To Mars

By William Teach April 2, 2026 – 10:30 am

This is rather a breath of fresh air, since so many Credentialed Media outlets and liberals are doing some hating, often saying we could have spent the money on something else because it happened while Trump is president

Of course, at least 70% of the money would have been wasted and disappeared into people’s pockets. The NY Times thought it was best to discuss China first

Anyhow

America launches its bid to reach Mars
The Artemis II mission is an extraordinary feat of American ingenuity.

The launch of NASA’s Orion spacecraft off the coast of Florida on Wednesday began the first crewed flight around the moon in a half-century. But it also marked the beginning of something more exciting: The Artemis II mission is America’s opening bid for deep space exploration — an ambition that is well worth its hefty price tag.

Some taxpayers watching Artemis II might think, “Been there, done that.” Americans first went to the moon in 1969. And by the time the Artemis program puts humans back on the moon’s surface in 2028, it’s projected to cost $105 billion.

This mission is best understood not as a return to the moon, but as the stepping stone to landing humans on Mars. NASA’s robots have discovered tantalizing clues to potential ancient microbes on the Red Planet. The space agency is hoping to use Artemis II to help demonstrate life-support and communications systems for a Mars mission, which would take two to three years round trip. Perfecting that technology is the largest remaining technical hurdle to sending humans to Mars.

The agency also hopes this flight can lead to a permanent human presence on the lunar surface, which would involve setting up a colony and regularly launching crewed spaceflights there. Such a colony — as well as a “Gateway” space station above the moon — could support research on Earth’s partner in orbit and serve as a training ground for a Mars mission.

There are three more paragraphs in the editorial, and, the funny thing is, the WP fails to mention Donald J. Trump once, even though this started under his leadership and with requests for funding from his administration. Hell, they don’t even mention Joe Biden, as the development continued during his time in office with more funding allocations. One of the only Trump 1st term things he didn’t kill off.

Regardless, cheers to the mission, and cross your fingers that it is a success.

“Who gives up land for the world’s climate fixes?”

By William Teach April 2, 2026 – 7:15 am

I have some ideas

Who gives up land for the world’s climate fixes?

Planting trees has become one of the most widely promoted responses to climate change. As forests grow, they absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere while offering habitat for animals, plants and other organisms. The idea is straightforward: Expand forests, and the planet gains both climate mitigation and renewed biodiversity.

Yet the land required to remove large quantities of carbon from the atmosphere may place these goals in tension. Efforts to plant forests or cultivate bioenergy crops with carbon capture need vast areas. In some places, those projects could displace ecosystems that already support rich biodiversity. A recent analysis suggests that roughly 13% of globally important biodiversity areas overlap with land that climate models designate for carbon-removal projects, reports John Cannon.

The research, published in Nature Climate Change, examined five widely used models that outline pathways to limit global warming to 1.5° Celsius (2.7° Fahrenheit) above preindustrial levels. Ruben Prütz of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research and his colleagues mapped where these models anticipate land-intensive carbon dioxide removal, such as new forests or bioenergy plantations. They then compared those locations with important wildlife habitats.

How about we build a bunch of nuclear power plants to replace coal and petroleum, even natural gas?

The study also highlights an uneven geography. Many of the lands identified for carbon removal lie in the Global South. That distribution raises questions about fairness, since wealthy countries have produced most of the emissions now warming the planet.

I think we should take the land from so many Warmists and turn them into forests. How about all those rich folks and politicians who attended the Brazil climate (scam) conference? They can move into townhomes or something. We can take large government owned pieces of property and turn them into forests. Demolish the buildings, and the workers that are necessary can work in tiny buildings elsewhere. How about Obama’s seaside properties? Al Gore’s? Sheldon Whitehouse’s? Biden’s Rehoboth Beach home property is not that big. Let’s take the entire town.

Any good ideas for property we can turn into forests? And, did you notice that the doomsday cult is happy to simply take Other People’s property?

9th Circuit Limits California Judge’s Ruling On Mass Detention Of Illegal Aliens

By William Teach April 2, 2026 – 7:00 am

When I ran across this I thought “Didn’t I already read this? Didn’t I already blog this?” Nope. That was the 8th Circuit Court of Appeals shooting down a Minnesota judge on mass detentions, in a slightly different manner. And now

US appeals court halts nationwide rulings rejecting Trump’s immigration detention policy

A federal appeals court has put on hold a California judge’s nationwide rulings barring the Trump administration from ?detaining people arrested in its immigration crackdown without giving them a chance to seek release on bond.

A three-judge panel of the San Francisco-based 9th ?U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals late on Tuesday largely paused, opens new tab those rulings while the administration pursues an appeal, saying the judge likely went too far by granting class action status on a nationwide basis to non-citizens facing mandatory detention.

The appeals court said the ruling declaring the detention policy unlawful would remain in effect only in the Central District of California, where the judge ?is based.

A lawyer for the plaintiffs did not respond to a request for comment on Wednesday.

The ruling was the Trump administration’s latest appellate ?win after the 5th and 8th Circuits endorsed its detention policy. Other appeals courts are reviewing the issue, which the ?U.S. Department of Justice expects to eventually reach the Supreme Court.

So, basically, the Trump admin should build a detention center outside of U.S. District Judge Sunshine ?Sykes’ of Riverside, California outside her dominion. I’m not sure if she is ruling in the Western, Eastern, or Southern, or all 3, so, how about right outside LA County in Rosamond? Anyhow, these wacko judges just keep ignoring the SCOTUS ruling on nationwide injunctions. They do not care. Their support of illegals overrides everything.

In Tuesday’s ruling, the 9th Circuit panel said the administration had made a “strong showing” that Sykes wrongly certified a nationwide class, saying claims concerning the validity of someone’s detention “must be brought in habeas proceedings in the appropriate district ?of confinement.”

The appeals court said Sykes ?also likely lacked jurisdiction to vacate ?the BIA’s decision, as the administration had already lodged an appeal of her December ruling, which stripped her of the ability to expand it.

The same judges keep over-reaching and keep getting smacked down.

Bummer: UN IPCC Running A Bit Short On Money

By William Teach April 1, 2026 – 3:00 pm

Hey, maybe a bunch of the Elites who take long, fossil fueled flights to IPCC conferences could sell their private jets

Funding gap threatens next round of IPCC climate science reports, chair warns

A lack of money is hampering the work of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and a substantial funding boost is needed to ensure its scientists can complete their next set of flagship reports, the chair of the UN body has warned.

Funding from governments fell in 2024 and 2025 and the organisation could run out of money by 2028 unless it receives fresh funds or implements spending cuts, chair Jim Skea told an official meeting of IPCC scientists in Bangkok last week, according to the Earth Negotiations Bulletin (ENB), which provides coverage of UN negotiations.

Skea told the IPCC’s 64th session that without a substantial increase in contributions, the completion of the next set of reports, known as AR7, would be jeopardised.

To deal with this crisis, the IPCC is now considering cutting costs by holding meetings virtually, reducing staff travel, media training, recruitment, pay and website upgrades and cutting down on the editing, translating and printing of its reports, according to scenarios prepared by the IPCC secretariat.

Shouldn’t they be doing this anyway, because all that travel puts out a lot of “carbon pollution”. When you have 40K-50K take long, fossil fueled trips to UN climate events that is super bad for the climate, right?

Nepal’s representative Manjeet Dhakal told Climate Home News he was concerned about the situation, while the ENB report said Japan’s government had called the funding crunch alarming.

While South Korea and Sweden announced increased funding, the European Union – a major funder – cautioned against assuming past contributors will continue to give the same amounts, ENB reported.

Hey, there’s lots and lots of super-rich Warmists, can’t they pony up? I’d personally like to offer to have them send large checks to the UN for the scam.

Moonbat Federal Judge Says Trump Admin Must Restore Legal Status Of All Those Who Came In Using Biden’s CBP One App

By William Teach April 1, 2026 – 10:30 am

Another week, another leftist federal judge putting out a ruling which will be overturned on appeal

Judge rules Trump administration unlawfully terminated legal status of migrants who used Biden-era app

A federal judge in Massachusetts unwound the Trump administration’s termination of parole status for some 900,000 migrants who were given permission to temporarily live in the United States.

The Biden administration launched the CBP One app to address high flows at the border, allowing migrants to make an appointment to seek asylum, while others were “paroled” into the country for up to two years.

U.S. District Court Judge Allison Burroughs, an Obama appointee, found that the Trump administration violated the law last April when it emailed the group en masse telling them, “It is time for you to leave the United States.”

“The regulations do not give the agency unfettered discretion to terminate parole,” Burroughs wrote.

“When Defendants terminated the impacted noncitizens’ parole without observing the process mandated by statute and by their own regulations, they took action that was ‘not in accordance with law.’”

These left wing wacko judges are amazing. There is no law regarding the use of CBP One for immigration related purposes such as the Biden admin did, nor to provide any sort of legal status. Nor was a federal rule passed. The Biden admin simply started using the existing CBP One app for this. You know what it was originally created for during the end of the first Trump admin? To help commercial trucking companies schedule cargo inspections. That was it. And somehow it morphed into the only way illegals could request asylum. Which, on top, seems like a good idea, except, 900K did, and instead of waiting to process the claims, the Biden admin just let them all in.

So, where does Judge Ally get off thinking that cancelling it and legal status is against the law? The Trump admin should round up a whole bunch of the worst of the worst and drop them off outside her court and in her neighborhood.

The Trump administration had argued that former President Biden abused parole authority by broadly awarding the status, rather than awarding it on a case-by-case basis.

And now the ruling will go to an appeals court, and Judge Ally will lose. Further, per the Supreme Court ruling on nationwide injunctions, Judge Ally’s ruling would only apply to her little fiefdom in Massachusetts.

And here’s another wanker

Citing First Amendment, federal judge blocks Trump order to end funding for NPR and PBS

Citing the First Amendment, a federal judge on Tuesday agreed to permanently block the Trump administration from implementing a presidential directive to end federal funding for National Public Radio and the Public Broadcasting Service, two media entities that the White House has said are counterproductive to American priorities.

The operational impact of U.S. District Judge Randolph Moss’ decision was not immediately clear – both because it will likely be appealed and because too much damage to the public-broadcasting system has already been done, both by the president and Congress.

Moss ruled that President Donald Trump’s executive order to cease funding for NPR and PBS is unlawful and unenforceable. The judge said the First Amendment right to free speech “does not tolerate viewpoint discrimination and retaliation of this type.”

These people. The government cannot shut down their speech, but, they do not have to fund it. Nothing in the Constitution says the government must fund any news outlet. This will also be destroyed on appeal, and, again, the SCOTUS decision would mean that only PBS and NPR within Judge Randy’s fiefdom would be funded.
