Your Fault: Hotcoldwetdry Increase Gun Violence Or Something

No matter the issue the cult of climastrology will link itself

Climate Change Increases Gun Violence Incidents in the United States

Hotter temperatures increase the risks of violence and aggression, including incidents of gun violence.

Climate Central analysis shows how temperatures boosted by human-caused climate change contributed to the number of gun violence incidents from 2021–2025 in 100 U.S. cities.

More than 1,900 incidents of gun violence were attributed to heat driven by climate change, out of the nearly 116,300 shootings that occurred during this time period.

Researchers have consistently found that the risks of aggression and violence — including firearms incidents — increase with temperature. The exact causal links between high temperatures and aggressive or violent behavior aren’t fully understood; however, both theory and observations have found that heat can trigger aggression by activating the regions of the brain responsible for emotional regulation and by increasing adrenaline. Researchers also hypothesize that warmer weather could increase the number of interactions between people and, as a result, increase the number of opportunities for conflict and violence.

Rising temperatures driven by human-caused climate change have the potential to amplify the risk of aggressive and violent behavior and, in turn, increase the number of shootings.

There is no such thing as gun violence: it’s people violence, they just happen to use guns. And there is no doubt that violence outside of the home peaks when it gets hotter. But, a 1.7F increase since 1850 is a nothingburger. Of course, the big cities where most shootings occur are warming due to UHI. It really just goes to show that the climate cult wants to involve themselves in everything.

If Ilhan Omar Is Not Her Real Name, Could There Be Legal Consequences?

By William Teach October 23, 2026 – 10:30 am

Maybe it also shows that the federal government needs to be a bit more careful in vetting the people they let in/bring in, though this is an extreme case

Ilhan Omar is not the Minnesota congresswoman’s ‘real name’: sources

Ilhan Omar is not the “real name” of the Minnesota congresswoman, Fox News Digital has learned.

Her real name is Ilhan Nur Said Elmi, according to two people familiar with the ongoing investigation into the Somali-born congresswoman, including a law enforcement source.

And if proven in court that Omar has lived her “entire life under an alias,” a former Minnesota federal immigration judge tells Fox News Digital that every single form she ever filled out could be “called into question.”

On Wednesday, U.S. District Attorney for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro filed a motion seeking to prevent the federal search warrant for the congresswoman’s home from being unsealed, which was requested by several media outlets. The motion says the federal government is not yet finished executing the search warrant, and that it shouldn’t be unsealed yet.

“Before the Court are three Applications to unseal ex parte materials and proceedings related to a federal search warrant for the personal residence in the District of Columbia of Congresswoman Ilhan Nur Said Elmi, a/k/a Ilhan Abdullahi Omar…” the motion begins.

OK, so, maybe Ilhan Omar is not here real name. Did she legally change it? People do that. So far we have heard nothing as to that. Her spokesperson has claimed that Ilhan Omar is her real name, and nothing about “she changed it legally”, so, this could be problematic for Ilhan

Conservative personality Will Chamberlain first posted the motion on X speculating that the “DOJ believes [Omar] is present in the United States under a false identity.” (snip)

Nathan Hansen, a former federal immigration judge from Minnesota, listed the extent to which the supposed name change could impact the case against the congresswoman.

“You think of all the types of documents somebody like her might have filled out,” he said. “There’d be federal student loan and student aid applications, maybe federal housing related applications, maybe public assistance applications, passport applications, passport information and driver’s license information, Real I.D. information [and] voting information.”

Now, people changed their name, sometimes US immigration authorities did it, all the time during waves of immigration, right? But, she’s still heavily denying the original name

He said if someone has lived their entire lives under an alias, there are many criminal charges that could be levied.

“Sometimes they might say that that would be a wire fraud charge, they always add that one,” said Hansen. “And that’s pretty broad. But, you know, a lot of these documents are sworn under penalty of perjury.”

“If this is not, like, a real legal name, it’s got some legal backing to it that every type of government form she’s filled out in her entire existence might be called into question,” Hansen said.

Including, say, applications to run for office? This is one of those true crime shows that keep getting more and more salacious

WVA AG Investigating Shady Climate Cult Groups

By William Teach October 23, 2026 – 7:15 am

They really do not like it when the scales of justice are aimed their way

West Virginia Investigates Climate, Environmental Groups Over Alleged ‘Deceptive’ Acts

West Virginia’s Republican attorney general has launched a broad investigation into many of the state’s leading environmental groups, demanding a decade of internal records involving their fundraising and climate change advocacy as part of a probe into “alleged unfair or deceptive acts,” court records show.

The environmental groups decried the inquiry as a sham, and at least two asked a judge Thursday to dismiss subpoenas from the attorney general’s office they described as harassing and overly broad.

Attorney General JB McCuskey has urged federal authorities to investigate and defund certain climate advocacy organizations and said protecting the state’s fossil fuel energy industry from what he’s characterized as overreaching liberal climate and energy policies is a priority of his office.

The subpoenas seek records related to the groups’ public statements on climate and energy, internal deliberations and requests for donations. The documents offer few details of any alleged deception but say they concern “an investigation into alleged unfair or deceptive acts” and invoke “other possible violations” of the West Virginia Consumer Credit and Protection Act.

“This investigatory subpoena from our state’s attorney general is nothing more than a fishing expedition intended to stifle our collective voice in our advocacy for clean water, protected public lands and healthy communities,” Jennie Smith, executive director of the West Virginia Rivers Coalition — one of the groups that went to court to fight the subpoena — said in a statement.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. The sad part about so many “environmental” groups, besides being part of the scam climate cult, is that they tend to not spend much of that money they raise on the stated mission. Most goes to things like salaries, perks, raising more money, and paying off politicians.

David Cole, a Georgetown Law professor and First Amendment scholar, called the West Virginia investigation “frivolous” and said the subpoenas should be quashed.

“If government officials can start prosecuting nonprofit groups because they disagree with the political view they take on a matter of public concern, that would chill a tremendous amount of protected political expression,” Cole told The Associated Press. “The proper place to fight this out is in the court of public opinion and in the labs of scientists — not in criminal investigations that essentially seek to weaponize the criminal arm of the state to take sides in a political debate.”

Interesting, because they had no problem with the Biden and Obama admins going after Conservative and Christian groups. Maybe because those groups did not engage in fraud that put money in Democrat pockets. Also, he can talk about the court of public opinion, but, the cult groups engage in a lot of climatelawfare, filing suits left and right to try and force Everyone Else to follow the cult’s beliefs.

Wacko Federal Judge Tells NICE To Stay Away From Looking For Illegals Ahead Of Elections

By William Teach October 23, 2026 – 7:00 am

It’s wild how many of these wacko judges ruling against enforcing federal immigration law were born outside the U.S.. And of course she was put on the bench by Sloppy Joe Biden

Judge limits election-related immigration stops amid broader legal war ahead of midterms

A sweeping campaign by federal immigration agents to identify voter fraud by noncitizens through door knocks, street stops and other field interviews in California and eight other states must be reined in ahead of the Nov. 3 election, after a federal judge in Northern California ruled it has intimidated U.S. citizens and interfered with the work of voting rights groups.

Judge Araceli Martínez-Olguin said in a ruling Wednesday that limiting the Department of Homeland Security’s surging operations in those states — which she wrote “sweep in U.S. citizens for investigation” — does not prevent the Trump administration from “exercising their authority to investigate voter fraud by lawful means.”

A Homeland Security spokesperson said the agency is “laser focused on identifying, prosecuting, and removing aliens who vote,” and has “no plans to question or investigate people we believe to be U.S. citizens.”

The ruling was the latest to come out of an unprecedented legal war playing out between the Trump administration and California in recent days, in which an array of election cases are working their way through the federal courts at breakneck speed.

First off, federal agents only need to show up with some door knocks and such and make sure people notice, and make sure that it is broadcast by the news and disseminated to the illegal and legal aliens, discouraging them from voting. And even getting anywhere near a voting site.

Second, she really has no power to enforce this rule beyond her fiefdom of the Northern District Of California. It wouldn’t even apply to all of the People’s Republic Of California.

Third, she really doesn’t have authorization to stop a federal agency from lawfully engaging in the duties that laws passed by duly elected Congresses have authorized. I can see this getting overturned quickly. And maybe smacked around in a written ruling for violating CASA.

Surprise: UN Blames US For Losing Ground On ‘Climate Change’

By William Teach October 22, 2026 – 3:00 pm

Right, right, because India and China mean nothing if we’re supposed to believe that this is all caused by “carbon pollution”

U.S. is a big reason the world is losing ground in the fight against climate change, U.N. report says

Losing more ground in the fight against climate change, humanity is heading for a hotter world than experts projected last year — and the United States is a big reason for that, a new United Nations report says.

If all the countries do what they promise to reduce heat-trapping emissions, Earth will most likely still warm another 2.2 degrees Fahrenheit (1.2 degrees Celsius) above current temperatures, according to Wednesday’s update of climate calculations by the United Nations Environment Programme. That’s about two-tenths of a degree Fahrenheit (0.1 degrees Celsius) more than last year’s projections by the same science team.

“This is a worse outcome than expected last year, as a result of the formal withdrawal of the United States of America from the Paris Agreement and revised estimates of historical emissions,” the report said.

The report also blames the United States for increased emissions last year, saying all the other top 20 major economies reduced their carbon pollution or at least slowed the growth in how much carbon dioxide was spewed from the burning of coal, oil and gas.

“In terms of magnitude, the increase in the United States of America (133 megatons of CO2 equivalent) far exceeded that of all other countries and was driven by increased electricity demand and a rebound of coal power generation,” the report said.

They actually believe that China and India, among others, were playing nice with this. But, then, the UN, and the leftist news outlets, are always happy to Blame The US.

The new calculations say that if countries do all they promise in the climate-fighting plans they submitted to the United Nations, by 2100 the globe will be 2.6 degrees Celsius (4.7 degrees Fahrenheit) hotter than pre-industrial times. If the world continues on its current path — without national promises — it will be 2.8 degrees Celsius (5 degrees Fahrenheit) warmer than the last half of the 19th century, the same as last year’s projection.

Both of those temperatures blow far past the goal of less than 2 degrees Celsius (3.6 degrees Fahrenheit) and preferably 1.5 degrees Celsius (2.7 degrees Fahrenheit) adopted by the 2015 Paris climate pact. The world is now at about 1.4 degrees Celsius (2.5 degrees Fahrenheit) above pre-industrial times and earlier this year — and again in this report — United Nations officials conceded that there is no way of limiting warming to the 1.5-degree goal that they had embraced. Instead, officials are pinning their hopes of limiting warming to about 1.8 degrees Celsius (3.2 degrees Fahrenheit) and then somehow pulling enough carbon dioxide out of the air to lower temperatures back down to 1.5 degrees.

BS. Just BS. Go peddle your climahysteria elsewhere.

50 Million AI “Songs” Removed From Spotify Out Of Recommendations This Year

By William Teach October 22, 2026 – 10:30 am

It’s wild how all the “we’re all going to die!” articles about AI have mostly dried up within a month, and now we get

Spotify Has Removed 50 Million AI Slop Tracks From Recommendations This Year

Spotify‘s quest to curb the chaos AI-generated music has brought onto the platform has prompted it to remove 50 million AI slop tracks from users’ recommendations this year, a new figure shared Tuesday as part of the company’s public insights into how it’s navigating the AI era.

The disclosure came in a post on its “For the Record” blog, where Spotify laid out the efforts it’s taken since it promised to push back against various forms of AI slop and spam that have proliferated across the streaming service.

The 50 million tracks the streamer removed from recommendations were in addition to more than 75 million tracks Spotify pulled completely after being flagged as spam, though tracks that comprise the 50 million figure have not been removed from the platform. According to Spotify, the 50 million AI-generated tracks are still available but a user would have to actively seek them out to find them (since they aren’t recommended algorithmically or editorially).

“Earlier this year, we looked closely at the tracks listeners were skipping, ignoring, or telling us they didn’t want to hear,” the platform shared in the post. “A clear pattern emerged: these tracks were consistently ones identified as slop or spam. Over the past six months, we’ve made numerous updates to our recommendation system to remove slop and spam, and surface more music made by authentic, human artists. Our editors hold the same standard and don’t program content identified as slop or spam. Since we made these changes, we’ve seen a marked decrease in listener concerns about this content showing up in recommendations.”

So, were the songs any good? I have no idea, because I’m sure they are in the “Today’s Hit Music” category. All that pop, hip-hop, rap, etc category, not metal. All the various types of rock other than metal I listen to (Rush, Jimmy Buffett, yacht rock, Eagles, etc) aren’t making much these days, so, not affected. But, are any of these AI songs better than the current today’s hit music! “songs”?

Really, when does Spotify remove all the over-produced garbage that uses a ton of autotune and computers to generate the limited amount of music? Heck, I bet a ton of the newer songs were generated using AI. Which can generate interesting lyrics, but, there’s no soul to them, because they are not based on experiences. There are no real stories attached.

Can AI produce Life In The Fast Lane? A song that started because of a warm-up lick by Joe Walsh? Do 3 guitars, drums, bass? Have them play something besides the equivalent of a metronome? Lyrics that tell a story? Or Aja by Steely Dan, a masterpiece which people would use to adjust the equalizer on their stereos for perfect sound? Voodoo Chile by Jimi Hendrix? Until it can do stuff like that, it is basically the same as all the slop you hear on today’s hit music stations. Maybe the people listening to it should try something different.

Everyone is squeeing about this at the moment

This might as well be AI slop. What’s the difference? AI could make this easily. Also, it’s hilarious that Tate, like so many of the women in this THM! slop, is saying she doesn’t need men but wears clothes and dances like she’s at a strip club (she has nor real rhythm, though, it’s not fluid) to attract men. Do males listen to this crap? They don’t go to “concerts” like this.

Anyway, I’m not worried about AI making music because there’s not much difference between it and Today’s Hit Music. I’ll worry when it can do actual songs. When it can make metal songs and do guitars, when it can do more than a basic metronome with the drums and bass guitar.

California Climate Assessment By Warmists Warns Of Doom For California

By William Teach October 22, 2026 – 7:15 am

We can solve this with more taxes, fees, and control of citizen’s lives

Latest Climate Report Warns of Major Upheaval to California Way of Life

In just a few decades, summers in California will not only be much hotter, but will also stretch for months longer. Floods will become more widespread and extreme. Exposure to wildfire smoke will kill thousands more people every year.

Those are the dire projections of California’s Fifth Climate Change Assessment, a report produced by California every few years that analyzes the impacts of changing weather patterns on the nation’s most-populous state.

The future laid out in the report, which was published on Monday, touches on familiar warnings: more wildfires, bigger storms, longer droughts. But it illustrates in unsettling detail just how quickly the climate is being reshaped, and reveals what is likely to be major upheaval to long-established ways of life in California.

According to the report, average temperatures are likely to increase in California by about 4 degrees Fahrenheit by the middle of the century. Current warming in California is unprecedented compared with the past century and estimates for the past millennium, the report shows.

Dire! 4F in 24 years even though it’s only gone up 1.7F since 1850.

A longer summer means a shorter winter for California, and warmer temperatures are expected to blanket lower-elevation ski resorts with rain instead of snow. The snowpack is expected to fall by 60 percent by 2100.

The report also found that without major intervention, as much as three-quarters of California’s beaches could disappear — either seasonally or permanently — by 2100 because of coastal erosion. In that same time frame, sea level rise is expected to threaten $78 billion worth of property because of coastal flooding.

The state’s agricultural industry is expected to take a major hit as well.

Dire! It’s so tedious.

Cool: Trump Admin Has Revoked Over 300K Visas

By William Teach October 22, 2026 – 7:00 am

It’s like the old joke: What do you call 1,000 lawyers at the bottom of the sea?

A good start. Of course, this whole thing gives the totally unbiased folks at Reuters a sad

Trump administration says it has revoked over 300,000 visas

President Donald Trump’s administration has revoked over 300,000 US visas during his second term, the ?State Department said on Tuesday as the federal government continues its ?sweeping immigration crackdown.

The number showed an acceleration in the pace of visa revocations in recent ?weeks.

In an update issued on August 10, the State Department had put the number of visa revocations since Trump’s current term began in January 2025 at over 175,000.

Trump says his immigration crackdown and deportation drive aim to improve ?domestic security. Rights advocates ?say the crackdown has violated due process and free speech rights and has created an unsafe environment, particularly for ?ethnic minorities, who have raised concerns about racial profiling. (snip)

Among visa revocations particularly condemned by rights advocates are those of pro-Palestinian foreign protesters demonstrating against US ally Israel’s attacks on Gaza and of foreigners over their social media comments about conservative ?commentator Charlie Kirk’s assassination.

Yeah, we really do not need Jew haters, America haters, and pro-Islamic terrorist groups folks in the U.S. There’s no right for them to be here: their visas are conditional, and can be revoked at any time. It’s right there in the terms and conditions. If they didn’t read it, that’s on them.

In announcing the latest number on X, State Department spokesman Tommy Pigott said the Trump administration “has revoked more ?visas at ?a faster pace than any administration ?in history.”

Pigott said the administration ?had “zero tolerance for foreigners here on visas who break the law, commit fraud, or undermine our national security.”

Most Americans agree with this, except the America, Israel, and Jew haters who vote Democrat.
