Youts Have A Big Vote Decision: A Good Economy Or Climate (scam) Action

By William Teach September 2, 2024 – 7:00 am

For a change, ‘climate change’ isn’t coming in last or almost last on a poll

Economic issues, climate change, gun violence and abortion are top of mind for young voters

Forty-one million members of Gen Z can vote in this year’s election, and money is on their minds.

Economic issues — including inflation, cost of living and jobs that pay a living wage — are top of mind for young people when it comes to the 2024 Presidential Election, according to the Center for Information and Research on Civic Learning and Engagement (CIRCLE) at Tufts University.

“Young people have the potential to have a huge impact,” said CIRCLE Spokesperson Alberto Medina.

Yeah, but, they so often go missing from the voting booth

The percentage of youth, ages 18-34 year olds, who selected each issue as one of their top three priorities, according to CIRCLE’s poll —

  • Cost of living/inflation — 53%
  • Jobs that pay a living wage — 28%
  • Gun violence prevention — 26%
  • Addressing climate change — 26%
  • Expanding access to abortion — 19%
  • Fighting racism — 13%
  • Securing the border — 13%
  • Public education — 13%
  • Student loan debt — 12%
  • Reducing the national debt — 11%

Ella Douglas, an 18-year-old freshman at Ohio State University, said the economy is her top issue. “I care about where our money is going,” she said.

Well, if that’s what she and 53% care about as their top issue, why would they vote for Kamala, who’s presided over much more expensive housing, food, energy, and so much more? Inflation that has outpaced wages? Do they really care enough about ‘climate change’ to destroy their own economic well-being?

Denver Police Searching For Person(s) Who Put Up Sign About Illegal Aliens

By William Teach September 2, 2024 – 6:45 am

They aren’t working hard to deal with all the crime by illegals/migrants, including the gang members, but, boy howdy, put up a sign and you’re in a heap of trouble

The Denver Post calls these signs “racist”, not understanding that the word doesn’t apply Hispanics, and, it’s so racist that they published a photo of the sign about Kamala’s illegals. Go figure. Anyhow

(KDVR) Community leaders gathered in Denver Friday to talk about racist signs popping up around the city. Leaders were frustrated and disappointed this hateful act happened in their neighborhood but were glad police acted swiftly to remove them.

“I was saddened yesterday when I saw these signs coming up,” said Sondra Young, president of the Denver Branch of the NAACP. “I was saddened for the fact that we say we want to make America great again, but we want to also spew hate and fear. We can’t make America great like that. I was saddened by the fact that people thought that this land is segregated and it’s not the land for all of us. It’s for all of our voices, our cultures, our ethnicities, our vernacular. This land was made for you and me.”

Aren’t these also the same people who have been complaining about the huge sums of taxpayer money being spent on the illegals, and how they’re bringing crime and squalor? Also, KDVR published the “racist” sign.

(Denver Police Chief) Thomas said police are not ready to talk about whether they have identified a suspect, but they are investigating the crime as a bias-motivated hate crime.

“At the very least, it is illegal to post signs on public or private property. I think what we are looking at very seriously are some bias-motivated state crimes that have much more serious punishments,” Thomas told a group of reports after the press conference. “Ultimately, it will be the district attorney that will make those charging decisions, but we will investigate this very vigorously as a bias-motivated hate crime.

“We are following a number of significant leads,” Thomas continued. “I think fostered by video evidence that we have and other evidence that we have, have helped us kind of narrow in on some individuals. We hope to make some positive identifications and continue to work with the district attorney. I’m hoping that we can hold someone accountable here fairly soon.”

Under Colorado law, it is a Class one misdemeanor, carrying a penalty of up to a year in jail.

I’m pretty sure that this form of protest is covered by the US 1st Amendment, and Article II, Section 10 of the Colorado Constitution. I know liberals are not particularly happy with allowing people to have free speech and the ability to protest unless said person agrees with the liberal position 100%.

Happy BidenHarrisflation Labor Day Weekend!

By William Teach September 1, 2024 – 7:00 am

Joe Biden’s intern is happy to post this

Wait, how is Brandon supposed to build 3 million homes by the end of January? They can’t even get 9 EV charging stations built. And no high speed internet hookups completed. As for inflation, he and Kamala helped cook it, and

No ‘Joy’ on Labor Day: Inflation Sends Cost of Cookouts Soaring

Americans are feeling less “joy” when firing up their grills and getting their marinades ready this Labor Day weekend, realizing that some of the classic barbecue staples are costing them a lot more.

It all begins with firing up the grill, which will cost more than it did three and a half years ago. According to data from the Bureau of Labor statistics, the price of propane, kerosene, and firewood has risen 16 percent from January 2021 to July 2024.

Staples of the basic all-American cookout are up too, meaning hamburgers and hotdogs are going to cost you. According to Consumer Price Index (CPI) data, the price of ground beef has risen 26 percent since January 2021, when former President Donald Trump left the White House.

Similarly, hotdogs are 25 percent higher than they were in January 2021. The price of chicken has also jumped since Biden and Harris came on the scene. Consumer Price Index (CPI) data, not seasonally adjusted, shows the price of fresh and frozen chicken parts 23 percent higher now than when Trump left office in January 2021. Matters are worse if Americans are looking to roast a whole chicken for their long weekend, as a fresh whole chicken is up 27 percent since January 2021.

And if friends and family are forgoing low carb trends and want to pair their barbecue delicacy with a roll, it is going to cost even more. Fresh biscuits, rolls, and muffins in the U.S. have risen 28 percent since Biden and Harris took office.

Side dishes, spices, lettuce, salad dressing, and beer are all up. So, people can vote for a guy they hate who does well on the economy, understands how it works, and wants you to have better costs without the government controlling everything, or, the lady who supercharged the issues as the economy was re-opening.

Aurora, Colorado Starts Process To Deal With Venezuelan Gang Members

By William Teach August 31, 2024 – 10:30 am

They’re looking to deal with the problem the governor calls imaginary

After video of armed Venezuelan gang shared by local official goes viral, Colorado city takes action

Aurora, Colorado Mayor Mike Coffman announced on Friday that the city is starting the process of clearing the apartment buildings where transnational armed gang Tren de Aragua has taken over.

In a statement posted to Facebook, Coffman shared “the Aurora City Attorney’s Office is preparing court documents to request an emergency court order to clear the apartment buildings where Venezuelan gang activity has been occurring by declaring the properties a ‘Criminal Nuisance.’”

“This will require a municipal judge to issue the order with the goal of getting these properties back under the control of the property owners. In the meantime, the law enforcement task force set up to disrupt and arrest Venezuelan gang members in these buildings will continue its operation. I strongly believe that the best course of action is to shut these building[s] down and make sure that this never happens again,” concluded Coffman.

One has already been picked up. In an email to Fox News Digital, Aurora Police Department confirmed that Tren de Aragua leader “Cookie Monster” is currently in custody in relation to a shooting on July 28.

I wonder if they will be immediately remanded into the custody of the federal government for deporatation, considering they are foreign gang members who would be no way eligible for any sort of asylum. By all the US laws they never should have been let in, however they arrived here.

Fox 31 reports that the men seen in the video that has gone viral are armed members of the Tren de Aragua gang, according to Department of Homeland Security sources.

If DHS knows they are members of a violent gang from a foreign nation why is it not doing anything? They seem to be sitting around twiddling their thumbs while Aurora residents are terrorized. Right now, the legal process could take time, and then they have to marshal resources to actually clear the building of violent gang members armed with rifles.

Woke Pope Yammers On About Earth Being Sick From Hotcoldwetdry

By William Teach August 31, 2024 – 7:00 am

Pope Francis says Earth is ‘sick’ in new climate change warning

Pope Francis on Friday urged people around the world to better protect the environment, ahead of a 12-day trip to Southeast Asia next week in which the pontiff is expected to urge global action on climate change.

“If we took the planet’s temperature, it will tell us that the Earth has a fever. And it is sick,” the pontiff said in a video message. “We must commit ourselves to … the protection of nature, changing our personal and community habits.”

Francis releases a video message each month to announce his prayer intentions for that month. The intention for September is “for the cry of the Earth”.

The 87-year-old leader of the global Catholic Church leaves on Monday to visit Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, East Timor and Singapore.

Well, that’s weird. Is he planning on taking this long trip by sailing ship? I suspect it would take quite a bit of time to get to those nations. But, you know, it seems that those who preach from Book Of Gore tend to be the worst offenders.

Boom Digity: IDF Kills Hamas Head In Jenin

By William Teach August 31, 2024 – 6:45 am

I’m sure this has made the unhinged, Israel and Jew hating kids on college campuses upset, though, none will actually go to the Palestinian areas, especially the women and rainbow letters folks

IDF kills Wassem Hazem, head of Hamas in Jenin

Wassem Hazem, head of the Hamas terror organization in the West Bank area of Jenin, was killed on Friday in a joint IDF, ISA, and Israel Border Police counterterrorism operation in the northern Samaria area, Israel’s military announced shortly afterward.

Hazem was killed in his vehicle after an exchange of fire during the joint operation. His role in the terror group involved carrying out and directing shooting and bombing attacks.

Hazem continuously advanced terrorist activities in the Judea and Samaria area, the IDF added.

Following the elimination of Hazem, two additional terrorists, Maysara Masharqa and Arafat Amer, who were in the vehicle with him, attempted to flee the scene. However, shortly afterward, they were also killed by an IDF aircraft.

Meanwhile, the wackjobs are at it again

Berlin Holocaust memorial defaced: ‘Jews are committing genocide’

A Berlin Holocaust memorial honoring non-Jews who protested against the persecution of their Jewish family members was vandalized with anti-Israel graffiti on Wednesday, according to the Berlin Police and European Jewish Congress.

“Jews are committing genocide,” was scrawled across the Rosenstrasse protest memorial according to EJC.

A Palestinian flag and the slogan “free Palestine” was spraypainted on the ground in front of the sculptures.

These people are assholes.

Bummer: US Leading On Spending For Unproven Pie In The Sky Climate (scam) “Solutions”

By William Teach August 30, 2024 – 3:00 pm

We’re pretty much spending too much on the rest of the BS “solutions”, as well

US leads wealthy countries spending billions of public money on unproven ‘climate solutions’

A handful of wealthy polluting countries led by the US are spending billions of dollars of public money on unproven climate solutions technologies that risk further delaying the transition away from fossil fuels, new analysis suggests.

Sigh. CO2 is not a pollutant

These governments have handed out almost $30bn in subsidies for carbon capture and fossil hydrogen over the past 40 years, with hundreds of billions potentially up for grabs through new incentives, according to a new report by Oil Change International (OCI), a non-profit tracking the cost of fossil fuels.

To date, the European Union (EU) plus just four countries – the US, Norway, Canada and the Netherlands – account for 95% of the public handouts on CCS and hydrogen.

The US has spent the most taxpayer money, some $12bn in direct subsidies, according to OCI, with fossil fuel giants like Exxon hoping to secure billions more in future years.

In fairness, the US has handed out way more than that on “loans” for solar panel companies that went out of business.

But carbon capture and storage (CCS) projects consistently fail, overspend or underperform, according to previous studies. CCS – and blue hydrogen projects – rely on fossil fuels and can lead to a myriad of environmental harms including a rise in greenhouse gases and air pollution.

They’re both BS, but, politicians handing out the taxpayer money receive lots of donations from the business owners.

“The United States and other governments have little to show for these massive investments in carbon capture – none of the demonstration projects have lived up to their initial hype,” said Robert Howarth, professor of ecology and environmental biology at Cornell University. “It is instructive that industry itself invests very little in carbon capture. This whole enterprise is dependent on government handouts.”

Weird, because it’s the same with solar and wind.

“Governments are pouring billions of taxpayer dollars into technologies that have consistently failed to deliver on their promises … allowing fossil fuel companies to continue business,” said Lorne Stockman, research director at OCI.

And that is the climate cultist’s big problem: they want fossil fuels companies gone, not realizing that they will no longer be able to take fossil fueled buses, trains, planes, or boats. No cruises, no popping off to an island for a vacation, no driving down to the store. Oh, and not to mention all the roughly 700 products made with petroleum.
