Totally A Hoax: Springfield Man Reported Haitian Migrant Snatching Geese

By William Teach September 12, 2024 – 10:30 am

Remember, this is totally not real

Springfield, Ohio, man reported Haitian migrants snatching geese out of park just 2 weeks ago

A Springfield, Ohio, resident on his way to work called 911 to report spotting four Haitian migrants snatching geese near a city park just two weeks ago, according to a newly revealed recording.

The call to a Clark County Sheriff’s Office dispatcher, obtained by the Federalist, appears to support a viral claim about some members of the migrant community eating animals in city parks.

Former President Donald Trump blasted the story into the mainstream Tuesday night when he claimed migrants in Springfield were “eating the dogs.”

Local cops and officials denied that anyone has reported pets being taken for food — but residents have previously claimed that ducks and other fowl were being eaten.

“I’m sitting here, I’m riding on the trail, I’m going to my orientation for my job today, and I see a group of Haitian people, there was about four of them, they all had geese in their hand,” the caller told a dispatcher.

All those reporters and Kamala supporters and supporters of unfettered immigration, bringing the 3rd World (is Haiti the 4th World at this point?) have said it’s a hoax, but, have any of them left their cushy offices and traveled to Springfield and interviewed residents? Done some investigation and set up cameras to watch? Of course not. Reporter these days is reading Twitter and Facebook, sending a few emails for comment right before publication, and just making it up based on their political beliefs.

On Tuesday, Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine announced he was sending Ohio State Highway Patrol troopers to help local cops, and was also earmarking $2.5 million to fund the city’s overburdened health system. (snip)

Residents attending a Springfield City Commission meeting last month shared a variety of horror stories involving migrants doing everything from harassing locals to throwing mattresses on front lawns to consuming anything on four legs.

You can thank the Biden-Harris administration. The next city experiencing this could be yours if Kamala is elected.

Climate Cult Surprised That Global Boiling Not At Center Of 2024 Elections

By William Teach September 12, 2024 – 7:00 am

Seriously, there has been almost no election in the U.S. or other countries for which ‘climate change’ is the centerpiece. One of the few for it was was in Queensland, Australian in 2012, where people obliterated the majority party over their climate policies, wanting them rolled back. So, the complete reverse

The presidential debate proved that climate change is not at center of 2024 election, experts say

Climate change remains on the backburner of the 2024 election following little mention of environmental policy during the first — and possibly only — debate between the two presidential candidates.

Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump faced off for the first time on Tuesday night from the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia, where neither candidate dedicated ample time to addressing what they would do to reduce the nation’s greenhouse gas emissions and bolster the clean energy industry.

“I think what we learned last night is that climate really is not on the ballot this fall,” Leah Aronowsky, a science historian at the Columbia Climate School, whose research has focused on the history of climate science and climate denialism, told ABC News.

It’s easy for the cultists to whip up support when things are going well: when you have much higher costs for food, energy, housing, and just about everything else, people don’t have time for the scam.

Climate change has not taken center stage this election cycle due to other topics — such as the economy, immigration and abortion — but that doesn’t mean that reducing greenhouse gas emissions is any less important, John Abraham, a professor of mechanical engineering at the University of St. Thomas in Minnesota, told ABC News.

Important to the cultists. Even most casual Warmists find it important in theory, not practice.

But environmental advocates and policymakers will have to find a way going forward to help the public understand how climate change will affect Americans in their everyday lives, Aronowsky said.

“It’s becoming clear that talking about climate as a … standalone issue is a political dead end,” she said.

It mostly always has been, no matter how much the cultists push it. Especially since once you get down into the policy voters realize that making action happen requires government dictates in their lives, with higher taxes and fees, and a loss of life choices.

Surprise: Election Officials Say There Could Be Problems With Mail In Ballots

By William Teach September 12, 2024 – 6:45 am

Obviously, there is nothing nefarious going on

Election Officials’ Warning: Widespread US Mail Woes May Disrupt Voting

State and local election officials from across the country on Wednesday warned that problems with the nation’s mail delivery system threaten to disenfranchise voters in the upcoming presidential election, telling the head of the U.S. Postal Service that it hasn’t fixed persistent deficiencies.

In an alarming letter, the officials said that over the past year, including the just-concluded primary season, mailed ballots that were postmarked on time were received by local election offices days after the deadline to be counted. They also noted that properly addressed election mail was being returned to them as undeliverable, a problem that could automatically send voters to inactive status through no fault of their own, potentially creating chaos when those voters show up to cast a ballot.

The officials also said that repeated outreach to the Postal Service to resolve the issues had failed and that the widespread nature of the problems made it clear these were “not one-off mistakes or a problem with specific facilities. Instead, it demonstrates a pervasive lack of understanding and enforcement of USPS policies among its employees.”

Wait, they’re surprised by this? If I do not have 5 days to mail a birthday card to clients who live in a 40 mile radius I wait and send them a bday email, as I have zero confidence it will get there on time. Anyhow, the obvious solution to this is that people go vote in person, like should be happening except in certain situations, like a handicap, being overseas, being military outside the home state, being in the hospital. Not just because you do not feel like going over to the voting building during the usually 2 weeks of open voting.

Of course, what this sets the stage for when it comes to Democrats is for them to caterwaul about late ballots and that they should be counted even if very late. Certainly there will be no shenanigans, right?

Voters Will Love Kamala’s Economic Plan They Aren’t Allowed To See

By William Teach September 11, 2024 – 10:30 am

We know she plans to hit companies that “price gouge”, but, how? What’s the plan? What’s the definition? Why do most economists and even Democrats say this is a bad idea? She says she will rescue the middle class (from 3 1/2 years of the Biden-Harris administration): how?

Harris has economic plan Goldman Sachs loves — but voters not allowed to see it

Vice President Kamala Harris did not trip on the debate stage, smack her head on the lectern, pass out or vomit on herself Tuesday night. She cackled only once.

So for her, it was a ringing success.

But her big, insurmountable political problem remains. Will voters cast their ballots based on a fairly unmemorable debate in which she said nothing? Or will they cast their ballots based on whether they are better off today than they were nearly four years ago when Ms. Harris and President Biden took office?

She then claimed to have a plan for an “opportunity economy” — a plan she said is approved by Goldman Sachs and Wharton School of Business. But, apparently, the plan is so super secret that she will not let voters see it until after the election.

But we know Goldman Sachs loves it!

“It’s like four sentences,” Mr. Trump joked. “Like ’run, Spot, run.’”

Well, in fairness, it is more than 4 sentences, but, it really doesn’t say much. It’s not even as detailed as the underwear gnomes plan.

As always, it was Mr. Trump against everybody else. The only one on his side Tuesday night was Lady Luck, who won him the coin flip so he got the last word.

He wondered why if Ms. Harris has all these great secret plans to fix everything she doesn’t get immediately to Washington right now and fix them since she is the sitting vice president.

Then he answered his own question. It’s because Mr. Biden and Ms. Harris are “the worst president and worst vice president in history.”

No worries, Kamala Harris will totally rescue us from the Biden-Harris administration.

September 11th 2024: Never Forget (sticky for the day)

By William Teach September 11, 2024 – 8:02 am

As I have done every year since the 5th anniversary of September 11th, I remember two wonderful individuals, Brook Jackman and Andrew Golkin, who I’ll never have a possible chance to meet and converse with, due to 19 murderous Islamist terrorists and their superiors, who attacked our country on that fateful day.

We Need New Bread For An Overheated World Or Something

By William Teach September 11, 2024 – 7:15 am

It’s always something with this doomsday cult. Did they have to do this during the previous Holocene warm periods? We know they had a lot of problems growing wheat during the Little Ice Age, which made making bread difficult

Can better bread be a climate change solution? These bakers think so

It’s a drizzly, cold spring day outside, but inside the Washington State University Breadlab in the Skagit Valley, richly scented steam billows out of a toasty commercial oven as baker Mel Darbyshire pulls out a tray of puffy mahogany loaves of bread.

“They look excellent,” she says, inhaling and examining their shiny, domed crusts. She pops one out of its tin and cuts into it. The slice looks exactly like the bread emoji — fluffy-topped and perfectly shaped — only this bread is a rich, warm brown on the inside.

That’s because it’s made from 100% whole wheat flour. And not just any whole wheat: a mix of different types of wheat called a “Climate Blend,” developed specifically to withstand the increasingly intense weather brought on by human-caused climate change. Both of those factors make this loaf a paragon for the future and a symbol of what bread can be in a climate-changed future.

On top of that, “it tastes amazing,” says Darbyshire.

That whole 1.6F increase in 174 years has been dangerous, eh?

That consistency has a price, says Jones. To produce flour that looks and behaves so consistently, the wheat it comes from has to be relatively uniform. That pushes farmers and wheat breeders to create and plant wheat varieties that are also relatively uniform, genetically selecting over time for plants of a certain height, or kernels a certain color and hardness.

Consistency is good for a product like flour; it helps keep a product like bread predictable. But it can be risky for plants themselves. In a field of plants that are genetically similar to each other — like siblings instead of two strangers from opposite sides of the world — a risk to one is a risk to all. A sensitivity to heat could wipe out a whole field, or region, if a heat wave comes along. A susceptibility to disease or pests could ruin a crop.

Jones, and many other crop scientists, have long been concerned that such selection also narrows the biodiversity of crops within a field, a farm, or even a whole region. That could, they think, increase the vulnerability of a crop. There are real-life examples of such disasters: Ireland’s Great Famine of the 1840s, for example, was driven by a potato blight disease that wiped out fields across the country and led to more than a million deaths.

But, that makes sense, because the climate, and the weather that makes up climate, is always changing. However, other reports say that wheat production is even more diversified than 100 years ago.

“If we have a chaotic climate, our strategy is to have genetic chaos in the field,” says Jones. “To strike back, to fight chaos with chaos.”

Reports Says Israel Is Offering Hamas Head Safe Passage For Release Of Hostages

By William Teach September 11, 2024 – 7:00 am

This should make the Hamas supporters happy, knowing that their leader won’t be blown up

Israel offers Sinwar safe passage out of Gaza in exchange for hostages – report

Israel’s chief negotiator for hostages and missing persons, Gal Hirsch, proposed offering Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar safe passage out of Gaza in exchange for the 101 hostages in the terror group’s captivity, a Tuesday Bloomberg interview revealed.

According to the report, the proposal to allow Sinwar’s escape from Gaza has been on the table for two days, yet it is unclear what Hamas’s response has been and whether they would accept it.

The offer was made with the intent of developing new solutions for a deal as ongoing negotiations “look more and more dim,” Hirsch explained.

“I’m ready to provide safe passage to Sinwar, his family, whoever wants to join him. We want the hostages back. We want demilitarization, de-radicalization of course — a new system that will manage Gaza,” Hirsch stated.

Will Sinwar go for this? He doesn’t care a whit about the civilians in Gaza, and, the base Hamas fighters are disposable cannon fodder. He would get safe, taking people with him. But, does he want that more than he wants to continue forcing Israel to battle in Gaza, knowing how many Israel and Jew haters there are out there in the 1st World? In the United Nations?

Meanwhile

Hmm, operating in a designated civilian protection area. Hamas wouldn’t do that, right?

Unsurprisingly, Kamala’s Climate (scam) Director Is A Wacko

By William Teach September 10, 2024 – 3:15 pm

I know you’re going to be totally shocked by this

Kamala Harris’ new climate director said she is hesitant to have children because of climate change threats

Vice President Kamala Harris’ 2024 campaign hired a new climate director who has frequently said the effects of climate change are part of what’s stopping her from having children.

Camila Thorndike, who previously worked in the Senate managing the climate portfolio of Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., was given the title of climate engagement director for the Harris for President campaign in September 2024, according to her LinkedIn page.

Prior to joining the Harris campaign, Thorndike said on several occasions that she considers climate change a factor when deciding whether to have kids.

“I was 15 when I first saw the climate ‘hockey stick’ graph. I realized that this skyrocketing arrow of temperature would take place in my lifetime. All of the big milestones of life that I was looking forward to would be in the context of this big global crisis. It led to the question of whether or not to have kids – which is still a big question for me – where I would put down roots, what my family would do,” Thorndike said in 2018 when she was the D.C. campaign director for the Chesapeake Climate Action Network.

The wacko has stated this many, many times since 2018, because cultists gotta cult. But, really, it would be a great thing of no Warmist had children, so, there would be less chance of more kids being indoctrinated into a doomsday cult.

Anyhow, in case you missed it, here’s Cackles’ “plan” for Hotcoldwetdry

As Attorney General, Kamala Harris won tens of millions in settlements against Big Oil and held polluters accountable. As Vice President, she cast the tie-breaking vote to pass the Inflation Reduction Act, the largest investment in climate action in history. This historic work is lowering household energy costs, creating hundreds of thousands of high-quality clean energy jobs, and building a thriving clean energy economy, all while ensuring America’s energy security and independence with record energy production. As President, she will unite Americans to tackle the climate crisis as she builds on this historic work, advances environmental justice, protects public lands and public health, increases resilience to climate disasters, lowers household energy costs, creates millions of new jobs, and continues to hold polluters accountable to secure clean air and water for all. As the Vice President said at the international climate conference, COP28, she knows that meeting this global challenge will require global cooperation and she is committed to continuing and building upon the United States’ international climate leadership. She and Governor Walz will always fight for the freedom to breathe clean air, drink clean water, and live free from the pollution that fuels the climate crisis.

Like the rest of her “plans”, they aren’t really plans, just random thoughts not ever worthy of a sticky pad. It’s nonsense, like most of what she spews. She just regurgitating things she was involved in. A plan requires a goal, list tasks, assign tasks, have a deadline. And does she really think she can unite Americans?
