Surprise: FEMA Official Told Workers To Blow Off Homes With Trump Signs

By William Teach November 9, 2024 – 10:30 am

Wasn’t this one of the things that the Credentialed Media was calling disinformation?

FEMA official directed hurricane relief workers to avoid homes with Trump signs as agency conducts cleanup

A Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) official has been removed from a role after directing disaster relief workers to skip homes “advertising” support for President-elect Trump after the devastating hurricanes in Florida.

In a statement to Fox News Digital, a FEMA spokesperson said the agency is “deeply disturbed” after the incident,” noting the official who gave the instruction “was given no direction to tell teams to avoid these homes.”

“While we believe this is an isolated incident, we have taken measures to remove the employee from their role and are investigating the matter to prevent this from happening ever again,” the spokesperson said.

“The employee who issued this guidance had no authority and was given no direction to tell teams to avoid these homes, and we are reaching out to the people who may have not been reached as a result of this incident.”

Why was this employee “reassigned” and not terminated? If you pulled something like this in the private sector you’d be promoted to customer. And probably lose their pension and any other perks. Quickly. How high up was this official? They may not have been directed, but, it’s wild that an official of FEMA felt entitled to pull this.

The Daily Wire first obtained internal messages about the incident.

In messages obtained by the outlet, a FEMA official instructs workers to “avoid homes advertising Trump.”

The outlet noted the aid workers would enter into a system tracking applications that they made no contact with the residents, blaming the directive — “Trump sign, no contact per leadership.”

So, there are actual messages, and the person is still employed. And never thought that anyone would find out. Or didn’t care if anyone found out.

In a statement on X, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis announced his administration is launching an investigation into FEMA.

“The blatant weaponization of government by partisan activists in the federal bureaucracy is yet another reason why the Biden-Harris administration is in its final days,” DeSantis said. “At my direction, the Division of Emergency Management is launching an investigation into the federal government’s targeted discrimination of Floridians who support Donald Trump.

If a FEMA official was willing to do this, what were other FEMA employees willing to do?

NY Times Is Very Disappointed That You Americans Elected Trump, Who’s Bad For ‘Climate Change’

By William Teach November 9, 2024 – 7:00 am

We’ve sent an alarming message to people who do not actually live in the U.S.

U.S. Election Sends Alarming Message for Global Climate Efforts

st greta carFor the second time in less than a decade, the United States is expected to retreat from one of the world’s most consequential challenges: limiting the deadly and costly wreckage of climate change.

The election of Donald Trump is not only a setback to the world’s ability to rein in dangerous levels of warming. It also signals to other nations that the new leadership of the richest country in the world, which is also history’s largest emitter of planet-warming greenhouse gases, is dismissive of the economic opportunities of transitioning to cleaner technologies. In addition it’s unlikely to be persuaded to change even as people worldwide are battered by extreme heat, fire and floods.

Last time I checked, Trump wasn’t president since January 2021, yet, according to Warmists, the output of “carbon pollution” continued to rise despite all the restrictive governmental policies and taxes. And almost no Warmists have given up their own use of fossil fuels.

Mr. Trump, who has called global warming a hoax, is all but certain to pull out of the Paris accord, the global agreement among nations to confront global warming, as he did during his first term as president. He is also likely to reverse a raft of regulations to clean up climate pollution.

In addition to largely isolating the United States on the global climate-diplomacy stage, actions like these would also hand a geopolitical win to the country’s main rival, China, which has spent a decade building up a powerful clean-energy industry and is now increasingly exporting it worldwide.

Wait, are they actually saying that China is Doing Something about global boiling? With all the coal power plants they are building in China and in African nations? Really?

The Trump victory is likely to embolden right-wing lawmakers in Europe to slow down European Union-wide climate targets, and some European lawmakers were quick to make the economic case for pivoting to clean energy. “The transition to climate neutrality is a cornerstone of our future competitiveness,” said Jennifer Morgan, the German climate envoy, speaking of the European Union as well as Germany.

Yeah, well, lots of citizens in the EU are done with all the taxes, fees, and government dictates

The Trump win raises a fundamental question for every other country: How important is the United States in preventing climate catastrophe?

“The rest of the world will continue working,” said Tasneem Essop, a South African and the head of Climate Action Network, an activist group.

Well, y’all have fun with that. Despite not really doing anything.

LOL: Sore Losers Threaten To Leave U.S. After Trump Win

By William Teach November 9, 2024 – 6:45 am

Shades of 2004 when Bush43 won re-election and when Trump in 2016

Trump’s historic comeback leads to staggering 1,514% surge in Americans looking to move abroad: study

Sore LosersDemocrats are finally doing something about migration.

Donald Trump’s historic re-election to the White House led to a staggering number of Americans taking the left’s meltdown one step further by looking to relocate abroad this week.

Since the president-elect’s comeback victory became official on Wednesday, the number of related Google searches jumped 1,514% percent, according to VisaGuide.World.

Between Election Day on Tuesday and Wednesday, search traffic for “immigration”-related pages on the site grew by 338% — with would-be expats zeroing in on the easiest countries to relocate to, the site said.

Other pages that saw major traffic growth were more focused on specific locales — including a 375% interest jump for a guide on moving to the UK from the US and a 355% spike for a page about Ireland.

Do the nuts realize that both Ireland and the U.K. have rather restrictive abortion laws, and that the U.K. is descending into Authoritarianism and Islamism? Do they realize that most of what are probably white liberal women aren’t wanted, especially since they bring nothing more than a degree ending in Studies, the ability to make coffee, and knowing how to post videos to social media? Most 1st World nations want actual work skills.

Scandinavia also appealed to distraught voters, with a Norway guide seeing 437% more attention.

Germany-Visa.org saw a 336% increase in traffic on immigration pages — including special interest in the Chancenkarte, or opportunity card, which allows anyone from a non-European Union country to live in Germany for up to one year to find work.

Really, though, the vast majority are just posing: they are going nowhere. That would take effort, and money. They would actually have to work. Heck, even if they wanted to move to Mexico the immigration laws are pretty tough, and the government wouldn’t put up with the crap we see from the liberals.

Teen Vogue Tells The Kiddies That Trump Is Terrible On Hotcoldwarmdry

By William Teach November 8, 2024 – 3:34 pm

Teen Vogue used to be a magazine for teen girls with things that teen girls were concerned with. Now it’s all about adult issues like sex and the climate scam, and works hard to make young girls mental messes

Trump Is Terrible on Climate. Conservationists, Activists, and Scientists Share What’s Next

The fight against climate change is not over because Donald Trump won the presidency. While there is no doubt that work to mitigate the already spiraling climate crisis will get harder, changing tactics and recognizing where the issues stand is critical for moving forward. We only have one planet, after all.

If you’re unfamiliar with where Trump is on climate policy, here is a little refresher: While in office, he pulled the United States out of the Paris Agreement, a legally binding international treaty to mitigate climate change. Joe Biden signed the US back into the agreement when he took office,  but Trump’s move to pull out of it in the first place (which he could do again) immediately signaled how his administration would handle the crisis: through deregulation. In Trump’s four years in office, he rolled back regulations on airborne mercury emissions, coal ash storage, and more, according to the Brookings Institute. (snip)

It is understandable to feel discouraged, but the fight isn’t over — it can’t be. There is no choice, particularly for the mostly Black and Brown women globally who are most impacted by the effects of climate change. There are plans in place and work is already happening to make sure we stay the course, even if things need to shift a bit. As Elly Kosova, government affairs advocate for Conservation-Energy at League of Conservation Voters, tells Teen Vogue, “Your voice matters, even and especially when they would prefer your silence. We can and must stand up for climate and environmental justice, and together, we can emerge stronger to win critical advances in the months and years ahead.”

Below, read more from climate activists, conservationists, organizers, and scientists about the realistic next steps now that Donald Trump has won the presidency.

I always enjoy how the Warmists think that black and brown women cannot survive without the helping hand of government, that they are incapable of doing things themselves.

Zainab Salbi, cofounder, Daughters for Earth, and Women for Women International

“I have lived in and witnessed many dark days as a humanitarian and a women’s rights activist who worked with women in conflicts and those addressing climate change, and I have learned that nothing is ever over. If anything, the idea that things are over when we learn of the victory of a very worrisome leader — or any bad news, for that matter — is a privileged one. Most women, at the frontlines of fighting for their rights and the rights of nature, have no choice but to continue the fight no matter what politician takes office.

“The question, though, is not whether or not one continues to strive and fight for justice; the real question is how can we continue the work in what feels like dark days and years to come while also protecting our mental and physical well-being?

Yeah, complete wackos. Why are the activists always such Debbie Downers? Always a message of doom. And there is a lot more of this doomsaying in the screed. And, you know who is also bad on climate? All the same people complaining about the coming doom, who refuse to give up their own use of fossil fuels.

Canada’s Trudeau Goes Full TDS, Revives Concerns Over Trump Panel

By William Teach November 8, 2024 – 10:30 am

There have been many, many, many, many unhinged freakouts by Democrats and like minded travelers around the world over Trump beating Kamala. For instance, Hot Air’s David Strom writes about this

I mean, OK, so, they won’t be having irresponsible sex and getting pregnant, so, they won’t be getting abortions. Also, they are signaling Crazy, and, is it a good idea to have sex with Crazy? Maren Morris released a snippet of a TDS song, so, like many, she is not taking this well. But, then, it ramps up to Trudeau loony

Canada’s Trudeau revives a Cabinet-level panel to address concerns about a Trump presidency

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Thursday he is re-establishing a special Cabinet committee on Canada-U.S. relations to address his administration’s concerns about another Donald Trump presidency.

Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland, who is also the country’s finance minister, will chair the committee, which also will include other top officials including ministers of foreign affairs, public safety and industry.

“Following the election of President Donald Trump for a second term, the Cabinet Committee will focus on critical Canada-U.S. issues,” Trudeau’s office said in a statement Thursday. (snip)

“I know a lot of Canadians are anxious. I want to say with utter sincerity and conviction to Canadians that Canada will be absolutely fine,” Freeland said.

“We have a strong relationship with the United States. We have a strong relationship with President Trump and his team. Let’s remember that our trading relationship today is governed by the trade deal concluded by President Trump himself and his team,” Freeland said.

They are worried about tariffs, but, really, what is Canada sending the US that would require tariffs? Maple Syrup? There are a ton of autos produced in Canada for sale in the US: Trump won’t put tariffs on them. The tariffs are really meant for countries like China, which have a massive imbalance for imports/exports. Is there really a need for Cabinet level committee? It just shows Trudeau and his leftist pals freaking out.

Sounds like Mass. is ripe for a ton of illegals/migrants. Perhaps Trump could ship her a million while they are waiting for their asylum hearings.

Climate Cult Initiatives Failed At Federal Level, Did OK At State Level

By William Teach November 8, 2024 – 7:00 am

For all the yammering about ‘climate change’ being on the ballot, it really didn’t factor into the federal election. At the state level, though

Climate Initiatives Fare Well Across the Country Despite National Political Climate

….

Washington voters on Tuesday firmly rejected a measure to overturn the state’s signature climate law.

Ballot Initiative 2117, or I-2117, would have repealed the Climate Commitment Act, which authorized a market-based “cap and invest” program to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 95 percent by 2050. I-2117 would also have prohibited all state agencies from implementing any type of carbon trading. The initiative would also have decreased funding for investments in transportation, clean air, renewable energy, conservation and emissions reduction.

Yeah, well, it’s Washington, and the lefties there haven’t really considered what it will do to their energy costs.

California voters also voiced their support for strong action on climate, approving a $10 billion bond measure to boost climate resilience across a state battered by alternating climate disasters, from unprecedented drought and heat waves to catastrophic wildfires and floods.

Proposition 4 authorizes borrowing to build resilience to a warming planet, respond to climate-related disasters and help ensure residents, particularly in disadvantaged communities, have access to safe and reliable sources of drinking water.

It’s California, which does everything possible to make it expensive and difficult to live there.

A ballot initiative in Honolulu, Hawaii, creating a climate resiliency fund passed, according to initial results as reported by the Honolulu Civil Beat.

Nearly 52 percent of voters cast their ballots in favor of establishing the resiliency fund, with money for the project coming from existing property tax revenue.

It’s Hawaii, though, I’m surprised it only made it to 52%. When does this island which would be a 3rd world shithole without fossil fuels ban them?

On Tuesday, Louisiana voters overwhelmingly passed a constitutional amendment that requires any revenue received by the state from renewable energy production to be deposited into Louisiana’s Coastal Protection and Restoration Fund.

That’s not Hotcoldwetdry, it’s the citizens, 73% of them, making sure the government doesn’t piss away the money.

A ballot measure in South Dakota aimed at easing the construction of carbon dioxide pipelines was squarely rejected by the state’s voters on Tuesday.

The citizens realized government was being a bit too easy and interfering with land rights.

Somehow they include Josh Stein, Democrat, being elected governor, which means lots of current gov Rory Cooper’s (D) climate scam order will not be rescinded. Believe me, ‘climate change’ was not even mentioned really during the governor election. Texas kept their Republican Railroad Commissioner, which regulates the oil and gas industry, so, they’ll keep pumping and refining.

With the election of so many Republicans in Minnesota and Michigan the climate wackos in the Dem party will have a tough time passing more and more scam laws. And there are a few more things like this, but, really, there were no ballot initiatives of consequence, because they are low hanging fruit, not that important to voters.

Wackos In Pentagon Fear Trump’s Return

By William Teach November 8, 2024 – 6:45 am

Yeah, well, when our military is more worried with DEI, Woke stuff, and anything other than winning a war and protecting the United States there’s a problem

Pentagon anticipates major upheaval with Trump’s return to White House
Critics fear the president-elect intends to make good on a host of campaign pledges with enormous implications for the nonpartisan military.

That’s from the Washington Post, which is a pretty hard paywall, and not reprinted anywhere. Our non-partisan military does this

You can bet that most of our military members are great people, but, they have the Crazy forced on them from above, hence why recruitment and retention metrics are so low

Trump’s Pentagon overhaul: 8 policy changes he’s expected to make

…

Trump critics, and even some former officials who worked in his administration, are warning that the former president would wield the military for his own political gain after he called for the military to be used against “the enemy from within” the United States.

Blah blah blah. Fearmongering, unless he figures a way to use them to secure the border.

A Trump Pentagon is likely to roll back a Biden-era policy that allows troops to obtain leave and be reimbursed for the cost of traveling to seek abortions and other reproductive care. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin rolled out the policy in 2022 after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade’s national abortion protections. Biden administration officials reasoned that, with many women serving in states where abortions are now significantly limited or banned, facilitating access to abortion and other reproductive care helps maintain readiness.

The taxpayer should not be paying for this, and those serving as active duty should not be having irresponsible sex which interferes with the ability to serve and do the job.

Transgender personnel began serving openly in the military in 2016 under an order from the Obama administration. But Trump announced in 2017 that he would reimpose the ban, angering LGBTQ advocates and Democrats.

And Trump will most likely rescind Biden’s order allowing people with mental health issues, including a much higher rate of suicidal thought, to serve, and damned sure they will not be provided with drugs and sex change operations.

On a campaign stop in North Carolina in October, Trump said he would restore Fort Liberty’s original name, Fort Bragg, sparking a backlash from lawmakers in both parties who say they would fight back if he followed through as president. Trump said that renaming the base, which previously honored Confederate Gen. Braxton Bragg was “rewriting history” and he pledged to reverse it.

Will he? Probably not. That’s low hanging fruit. I can tell you that most people in NC still call it Bragg.

There’s a few more, but, what Politico misses is what Washington Post is concerned about: Trump going after the very high ranking members who set the policies of Crazy. Getting rid of those who are gender confused. Who let all that Other Stuff get in the way of the mission of the US military. Those people need to be gone, either forced to retire or fired.

Ahead Of COP29 WHO Wants Health To Be Part Of Climate 9scam) Agenda

By William Teach November 7, 2024 – 3:27 pm

I’ve been telling people since the mid-200’s that Hotcoldwetdry is the platform for governmental control over everything, all in the name of Saving The Planet. This is not an environmental movement, it is a political movment

WHO demands urgent integration of health in climate negotiations ahead of COP29

Ahead of the 2024 UN Climate Change Conference in Baku (COP29), the World Health Organization (WHO) calls for an end to reliance on fossil fuels and advocates for people-centred adaptation and resilience.

Launching the COP29 special report on climate and health and a technical guidance on Healthy Nationally Determined Contributions, WHO urges world leaders at COP29 to abandon the siloed approach to addressing climate change and health. It stresses the importance of positioning health at the core of all climate negotiations, strategies, policies and action plans, to save lives and secure healthier futures for present and future generations.

“The climate crisis is a health crisis, which makes prioritizing health and well-being in climate action not only a moral and legal imperative, but a strategic opportunity to unlock transformative health benefits for a more just and equitable future,” said Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, WHO Director-General. “COP29 is a crucial opportunity for global leaders to integrate health considerations into strategies for adapting to and mitigating climate change. WHO is supporting this work with practical guidelines and support for countries.”

Everything is crisis that dovetails into the climate crisis, and we all need to give our money and freedom to government to fix it all.

Developed by WHO in collaboration with over 100 organizations and 300 experts, the COP29 special report on climate change and health identifies critical policies across three integrated dimensions – people, place and planet. The report outlines key actions aiming to protect all people, particularly the estimated 3.6 billion people who live in areas which are most susceptible to climate change.

The report underlines the importance of the governance that integrates health in climate policy-making – and climate in health policy-making – being essential for progress. The report’s top recommendations include:

end fossil fuel subsidies and reliance by realigning economic and financial systems to protect both people’s health and the environment, through investment in clean, sustainable alternatives that reduce pollution-related diseases and cut carbon emissions;

Perhaps the WHO should mention the 30,000+ who will take fossil fueled trips to COP29? Notice this is also about government essentially taking over the economic and financial sectors. This worked well in the Soviet Union and Venezuela, eh?

build greater focus on the role of cities in health outcomes, through more sustainable urban design, clean energy, resilient housing, and improved sanitation; and

Controlling where you live and where you go. Again, speaking hypothetically, if anthropogenic climate change is real why is virtually every solution about government power, about controlling citizen’s lives and taking their money? And, controlling the health sector does control your life. You want healthcare? Shut up and follow, or else.
