Ongoing War On Conservative Speech

-
Musk: Twitter censors only targeted conservatives
https://hotair.com/headlines/2022/11/24/musk-twitter-censors-only-targeted-conservatives-n513299
Twitter owner Elon Musk confirmed this week that the social media platform’s prior operators had used its censorship policies as a vehicle to de-platform only conservative viewpoints.
-
-
Little wonder Musk has become THE target of Democrats, Liberals, Big Tech including Apple and the PravdaMedia!
-

We need Free Speech laws at the federal and state levels.
Currently the Constitution only speaks to government limitations on free speech and that is being ignored on a broad scale.
Based on current assaults on free speech we need protection from companies, organizations, PACs, media, internet and individuals who bring pressure upon those they disagree with and seek to silence.
-
A current example is the organized suppression of parents who confront rogue school boards over misdirected ‘lessons’ and ‘grooming’. Parents are then harassed by entities all the way up to and including the FBI.
Gee Toto – I don’t think we’re in America anymore!
http://roanokeslant.blogspot.com/2022/02/what-are-parents-school-grievance.html
-
Other examples are:
The suppression of Hunter's LapTop just before the election.
The suppression of ‘internet free speech’ by burying articles and blogs contrary to PravdaMedia and Google-type entities views while highlighting material they support.

Biden Empowers Communist Red-Oil

-
US Treasury (Biden) authorizes Chevron to expand oil pumping in Venezuela
https://www.foxbusiness.com/energy/us-treasury-authorizes-chevron-expand-oil-pumping-venezuela?dicbo=v2-e0d76423fab1b63749d7ede7b2604a6a
The Treasury Department said Chevron has been issued an expanded license to import petroleum or petroleum products produced by its joint venture with PDVSA, the Venezuelan state oil-firm.
-
-
Biden’s first day highlighted shutting down American fossil fuels triggering the limiting of gasoline, fuel oil and natural gas and the doubling of their prices thereby kicking off the 40-year record inflation that will result in 2023-recession.
He then begged the Saudi’s to pump more oil with no result.
-
Now Biden has opened the oil wells in Communist run Venezuela thereby funding and empowering the Maduro communist cabal and their vicious treatment of the Venezuelan people with American dollars.

Greenland Melting Yet Again: Déjà Vu

-
Polar Bears in Greenland Adapting to Life Without Sea Ice
https://www.wsj.com/articles/polar-bears-surprise-researchers-by-adapting-to-life-without-sea-ice-11655402400?cx_testId=3&cx_testVariant=cx_170&cx_artPos=0&mod=WTRN#cxrecs_s
The small group shows resilience as the climate warms, but some scientists warn that polar bears elsewhere might still struggle to survive
“We are continuing to see a decline in sea ice extent and sea ice thickness,” said Thorsten Markus, program manager for cryospheric science at NASA headquarters in Washington, D.C. “There are projections that by midcentury, you will have no sea ice left during the summer.”
Greenland’s glaciers are retreating along with sea ice, according to NASA, though over the course of centuries rather than decades.
-
-
-
Yet another demise of the polar bears at the man-made global warming stake.
-
Greenland is the land the Vikings discovered during a nice warm period also being fueled by geothermal fumaroles and deep volcanoes. The Vikings were then froze-out and iced-over by the Little Ice Age. Greenland was then warmed again by the current InterGlacial period.

Greenland Perpetually Melting And ReFreezing And It’s Not Your Fault
http://roanokeslant.blogspot.com/2018/03/greenland-perpetually-melting-and-its.html
Greenland has wonderful cheap renewable geothermal heat sources that heat and power the entire country.
They tap into thousands of ‘fumaroles’ of hot water rising from volcanic sources deep under the bottom of the Arctic.
These fumaroles also heat and melt surrounding ice as hot water is prone to do.

CCP locks down largest iPhone factory for 'Covid restrictions' after mass protests
On Friday, six million people in Zhengzhou, China were forced under lockdown by the government, including the tens of thousands of workers at the country's largest iPhone plant.

On Friday, six million people in Zhengzhou, China were forced under lockdown by the government, including the tens of thousands of workers at the country's largest iPhone plant.
The move comes just days after violent clashes erupted at the Foxconn factory between workers and law enforcement over deceptive contracts.
For the thousands of new recruits, who had been wooed with high salaries to replace the thousands who had fled the factory in October, things got to be too much, and they were left with no other option than to take to the streets.

Abraham Lincoln's Thanksgiving Day Proclamation

-
Abraham Lincoln's Thanksgiving Day Proclamation
-
Proclamation from Abraham Lincoln on Thanksgiving Day, October 20, 1864.
This during some of the darkest days of the Great War Between The States that took 620,000 young soldiers lives.
-
"It has pleased Almighty God to prolong our national life another year, defending us with His guardian care against unfriendly designs from abroad and vouchsafing to us in His mercy many and signal victories over the enemy, who is of our own household. It has also pleased our Heavenly Father to favor as well our citizens in their homes as our soldiers in their camps and our sailors on the rivers and seas with unusual health.
He has largely augmented our free population by emancipation and by immigration, while He has opened to us new sources of wealth and has crowned the labor of our workingmen in every department of industry with abundant rewards. Moreover, He has been pleased to animate and inspire our minds and hearts with fortitude, courage, and resolution sufficient for the great trial of civil war into which we have been brought by our adherence as a nation to the cause of freedom and humanity, and to afford to us reasonable hopes of an ultimate and happy deliverance from all our dangers and afflictions:
Now, therefore, I, Abraham Lincoln, President of the United States, do hereby appoint and set apart the last Thursday in November next as a day which I desire to be observed by all my fellow-citizens, wherever they may then be, as a day of thanksgiving and praise to Almighty God, the beneficent Creator and Ruler of the Universe. And I do further recommend to my fellow-citizens aforesaid that on that occasion they do reverently humble themselves in the dust and from thence offer up penitent and fervent prayers and supplications to the Great Disposer of Events for a return of the inestimable blessings of peace, union, and harmony throughout the land which it has pleased Him to assign as a dwelling place for ourselves and for our posterity throughout all generations."
-
**************
-
A somber thought at this special time is that the Progressive and Liberal elements in our country are working diligently to brain-wash our young people that this country never was a Christian Nation founded on Christian values.
How Sad Is That!

The Disney Woke-Train Wreck

-
Kareem Daniel to leave Disney as Bob Iger steps back into CEO role
Bob Chapek was replaced as CEO on Sunday
https://www.foxbusiness.com/entertainment/kareem-daniel-leave-disney-bob-iger-back-ceo-role
-
-
The replaced batch of Disney executives, among other mismanagement, immersed the Disney brand into the Woke LGBTQ Jihad. Apparently they thought that the majority of American families have embraced the misguided detour from the traditional American Way and Family. This misdirection is an affront to what Walt Disney built his brand and characters around.
And while we’re running the train off the tracks let’s pick a fight with Florida’s Governor.
https://www.politico.com/news/2022/04/22/desantis-disney-special-status-dont-say-gay-00027302
-
Now the board of so called directors have woke-up and smelled the financial-coffee and it’s not nice. Let’s get Inger back to ‘build Disney back better’.
Disney has been a special place, brand and image, hopefully they will get back to a place ‘traditional-grandparents’ want to take their grandchildren and hopefully the massive price will be moderated going forward.
-
Just an observation: not many LGBTQ folks have kids to bring to Disney therefore a rather diminishing niche future market.

CBS verifies Hunter Biden laptop, becoming latest news outlet to pivot after dismissing scandal in 2020
https://www.foxnews.com/media/cbs-verifies-hunter-biden-laptop-becoming-latest-news-outlet-pivot-after-dismissing-scandal-2020
           (may have to copy-paste link into browser to view fox article)
CBS joins New York Times, Washington Post, NBC, CNN in verifying laptop after media dismissed New York Post's reporting
CBS News is the latest news organization go completely 180 on its coverage of the Hunter Biden laptop as part of a remarkable evolution from the legacy media.
A report that aired on Monday's installment of "CBS Mornings" offered a deep dive into the network's efforts to authenticate the device purportedly belonging to President Biden's son.
"As Republicans take control of the House, Hunter Biden, the president’s son will be a target for investigations and that means data from a laptop purported to belong to Biden could be crucial to the investigatory process. CBS News has obtained its data, not through a third party or political operative, but directly from the source who told us they provided it to the FBI under subpoena. We commissioned an independent forensic review to determine its authenticity," CBS host Tony Dokoupil told viewers leading into the report.

AG Garland’s Dependent Special Counsel

-
AG Garland appoints special counsel to weigh criminal charges against Trump
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2022/nov/18/garland-appoints-special-counsel-weigh-criminal-ch/
Attorney General Merrick Garland has appointed Jack Smith, a longtime Justice Department prosecutor, as a special counsel to explore criminal charges against former President Donald Trump.
Mr. Smith’s work will begin immediately, Mr. Garland said at a rare press conference from the Justice Department headquarters. He will oversee the department’s probe into Mr. Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 election and the investigation into whether Mr. Trump illegally took classified documents from the White House.
-
-
An INDEPENDENT prosecutor --- Really?
More like a DC-entrenched political hack!

Smith was the Jack that persecuted R.Va.Gov McDonnell and destroyed his life and career over a set of lies and trivial pursuit and wife intrigue.
This totally corrupt miscarriage of justice was ultimately overturned by The Unanimous SCOTUS!

Blessed Are The Believers For They Shall Inherit Something

-
From Bible School to pop music we have been directed to be Believers.
How can anyone not believe the Biden, Gore, Mann, Kerry and Greta storyline that man-kind is causing catastrophic global warming and that draconian action must be taken Now and that 99% of climate scientists agree with them as does the PravdaMedia and the DNC. Wow! Overwhelming!
But yet again another 3rd party poll indicates that the consensus is more like 60% than 100% --- Really? And how many of them are paid to believe either directly or indirectly?

41% of Climate Scientists Don’t Believe ‘Climate Change’ Narrative
https://slaynews.com/news/climate-scientists-dont-believe-climate-change-narrative/?utm_source=mailpoet&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=daily-newsletter
A whopping 41 percent of climate scientists say they don’t believe the official “climate change” narrative that’s promoted by politicians and the corporate media, a new report has revealed.
The media and political elite are constantly demanding that the public complies with their green agenda by arguing that the “science is settled” on global warming.
The official narrative insists that there is a nearly 99% “consensus” among scientists that the human race is causing a catastrophic “climate emergency” through carbon emissions.
However, a bombshell new survey reveals that 41% of climate scientists dispute these claims.
-
-
An Ode To AGW Consensus
-
Science is a complex subject
Many fear its state
So let’s not strive and worry
Consensus is our fate
-
Consensus is agreement
Agreement is accord
Accord is solidarity
So let’s just join the hoard
-
Instead of facts and data
Let’s put our faith in Gore
And read his fiery gospel
Of burning fuels no more
-
The Skeptics are deplorable
They question Gore’s decrees
They even publish nasty facts
That highlights real degrees
-
The Alarmists tout their models
The inputs just a guess
The output just a reflection
Of their sense of hopelessness
-
The Alarmists claim to be
The arbiters of truth
Who else can be believed?
They have captured all the youth
-
Nature has her own consensus
Millions of years of yore
When things were very hot and cold
There wasn’t any Gore
-
Our carbon and our temperatures
Were once hard to beat
The oil wells in Alaska
Are pumping trees and peat
-
We’re told the climates changing
As it has always done
What final state do we desire?
When all is said and done
-
So let’s all join together
And sing the consensus song
It still guides the lemmings
As they hear the Sirens Song

1. Reduce the number of crime acts committed.
2. Reduce those acts that are defined as a crime.

D.C. Council votes to lower criminal penalties on carjacking, gun possession, burglary
https://hotair.com/tree-hugging-sister/2022/11/17/d-c-council-votes-to-lower-criminal-penalties-on-carjacking-gun-possession-burglary-n511813
Washington DC council voted unanimously to 'lower sentences for burglaries, carjackings, and robberies....reduce penalties for illegal gun possession, including for carrying a pistol without license and for being a felon in possession of a firearm.'
-

-
These are the leaders that are demanding that law-abiding citizens be denied 2nd Amendment rights and have negated bail laws for felons.
-
-
On a lighter note:  adultery and sodomy were once crimes,  now they're listed as entertainment.
On the other hand, they're still in the Uniform Code of Military Justice.

Trump And The Titanic

-
Trump keeps it elegant in 2024 presidential campaign announcement
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2022/nov/17/trump-keeps-it-elegant-in-2024-presidential-campai/
-
-
Sometimes it’s hard to face a reality! Sometimes it’s impossible!
Especially when you’re very rich and accustom to having your way!
-
Trump and the Titanic were unsinkable – or so it was thought.
Turns out that Trump and the Titanic were both undermined by their own internal short-falls and faulty-compass.
-
Trump’s 2024 announcement was not a positive message of a village on the hill to which he was going to instill light and hope and progress.
It was not a positive message of national renewal.
It was instead a revisit of past transgressions most of which are true and valid and they are an ugly blemish upon our systems and country.
But one doesn’t win elections on past pain and retribution.
The 2024 winner must have a positive message for 2024 and beyond.
The 2024 winner must not denigrate other honorable Republicans who have much to offer our country.
The Republican 2024 Standard Bearer must represent the vast majority of a unified  party and most Independents and many disgruntled Democrats in order to win!
Virginia showed the way with Glen Youngkin, as did Florida with Rod DeSantis.
-
We all thank Donald Trump for his many achievements during his 2017 – 2021 service and wish him well going forward as Citizen-Trump hoping that he can and will support a winning ticket that he is not heading.  Such is the measure of a true leader and patriot.

The Ongoing Sea Level Rise Armageddon - Really?

Sea levels have risen 340-feet (34-story high building) over past 16,000-years.
Cause-Effect??  Not a lot of people burning fossil fuels back then.
http://roanokeslant.blogspot.com/2018/02/the-sea-level-has-been-and-is-still.html
-
-


Recent sea level rise has been 8-inches per hundred years
With massive high-low variability that begs cause-effect issues.

-
-
Major shore-line changes involving earth sinking, called subsidence.
Results in 'apparent rising water' greater than natural inter-glacial melting.

Reality Overtaking Energy Policy

-
A responsible view of our power systems are starting to be heard and published.
It’s not the introduction of renewables that is the issue, it’s the decommissioning of current systems that are being truncated before they will be required to backup the unreliable and intermittent renewables.
Responsible energy policy embraces defense policy, national domestic and economic policy.

Oil Producers Deliver Reality Check At COP27 Climate Summit
https://www.forbes.com/sites/daneberhart/2022/11/16/oil-producers-deliver-reality-check-at-cop27-climate-summit/?sh=38f0f0315d37
The COP27 climate conference in Egypt has been tough sledding for climate activists. Energy security concerns and shortages in traditional fossil fuels – which still power the vast majority of the global economy – are rightfully stealing the show.
You know it’s bad when the EU’s climate chief becomes the voice of reason on energy security.
“If we can’t get our citizens and industries through the winter, there will not be a climate policy left,” Franz Timmerman said before his journey to the resort town of Sharm el-Sheikh for the annual U.N. climate confab.

The University of Virginia student who authorities say opened fire on a bus, killing three, on Sunday was caught carrying a concealed 9mm semiautomatic pistol during a traffic stop in Chesterfield County, records show.
Police said officers on Feb. 22, 2021, stopped a vehicle driven by Christopher Darnell Jones Jr. in the area of Boisseau Street and Third Avenue because its registration did not come back on file.
During the stop, Jones was found in possession of the gun on his person, police said. He didn’t have a permit. Police also determined that he was wanted in Petersburg on two outstanding charges of failing to stop for an accident resulting in more than $1,000 in damages and reckless driving for an incident that occurred on Aug. 9, 2020.

What a farce the anti-gun-gang have proved to be.
Yet another Bad News Black Jock getting special dispensation from the judicial system and university leaders.

Republicans: Turn! Turn! Turn!

-
A Time To Every Purpose: Turn! Turn! Turn!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4983sAoLdM
-
After 20-years of disappointments, 2009 to 2021, Virginia Republicans gathered around Glen Youngkin’s campaign for Governor and succeeded in electing a Conservative-Centrist-Republican leader and outstanding person into office.
Thank You to all those who set-aside strict political boundaries to reach a higher level of achievement that is resulting in major positive changes for the people of Virginia.
-
It’s time now to ‘Turn! Turn! Turn!’ at the national level to new and highly accomplished and competitive candidates with positive centrist positions that are compatible with conservative values and beliefs and who can get elected and make a difference.
-
The election cycle for 2024 has already begun.
It’s time to set aside ‘litmus tests’ and select candidates that can win at the state and national levels and then implement positive and productive conservative-centrist changes for all the people of The United States.

Democrat strategy to set up GOP election deniers to lose was maligned, but it worked.

Sustainability Is Not Reliability

-
At long last a responsible engineering view of our national power grid and systems are starting to be heard and published.
It’s not the introduction of renewables that is the issue, it’s the decommissioning of current systems that are being truncated before they will be required to backup the unreliable and intermittent renewables.

US West faces power reliability issues from growing use of renewables
https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/us-west-faces-power-reliability-issues-growing-use-renewables-2022-11-11/
"If nothing is done to mitigate the long-term risks within the Western Interconnection, by 2025 we anticipate severe risks to the reliability and security of the interconnection," WECC said in the assessment.
-
Translation: Rolling BlackOuts and Significant Grid Outages will happen IF required current-energy mix are Not available.
-
The time tested idiom: “Don’t quit your day job”!
-
Energy reality:
The sun doesn’t always shine with the required intensity and the wind doesn’t always blow at the required speed if at all.

Who is funding all the back-up energy that is required going forward?

Sperm-Donor Paying

Single Nick Cannon, soon to be father of 12, talks yearly multi-million child support bill
Nick Cannon is expecting his 12th child next year
https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/nick-cannon-soon-father-12-talks-yearly-multi-million-child-support-bill
           (may have to copy-paste link into browser to view fox article)
Amidst news that Nick Cannon's brood is continuing to expand, with the TV host announcing Alyssa Scott is pregnant with his soon-to-be 12th child, the 42-year-old father is talking about the hefty child-support bill he pays on an annual basis.
A report from The Sun claimed that Cannon "nearly paid $3 million a year in child support," however the musician and actor told The Neighborhood Talk that the actual number is much larger.
-
-
Is this a father-mother-children relationship or are these just surrogate-women-carriers and their baby-yield?
-
The Bad News: so much for the concept of the traditional family unit!
-
The Good News: At least Nick is not placing a burden on the taxpayers as is the case with millions of other sperm-donors.

Connecting With Voters Or Not

-
Some Reflections on 11-8-2022:
-
Given the final outcomes are not yet clear (11-9 am):
The national midterm elections were a big disappointment for Republicans (excepting Florida).
-
Clearly the Democrats surged the last two weeks to defuse the ‘perceived’ Republican wave that turned out to be a splash.
-
Republicans discounted at their peril the impacts of:
Democrats buying votes with massive government hand-outs
The SCOTUS Abortion ruling backlash
The election-denial backlash
The Jan 6th backlash
Too Far-Right inexperienced candidates
-
And Republicans over-valued the negative impacts of:
Biden's low approval rating
The economic inflation and costs
The massive national debt
The border mess
The crime pandemic
-
The epitome of the election was the election of Fetterman in Pennsylvania.
It wasn’t the crippling stroke issue, it’s his positions to the left of Bernie Sanders that just can’t be consistent with 'The Constitution Colony'! --- or can it?
How close to a Socialist country have we become?
-
The #1 Loser is the American economy and Free Enterprise.
The #2 Loser is the American TaxPayer
-
The #1 Winner is Obama
The #2 Winner is Biden
-
On to 2024 and improved election outcomes!

Fishermen Shutdown By Global Warming -- Really?

-
This is very disturbing.
This is the canary in the coal mine.
This goes to the heart of the AGW Global Warming messages and warnings.
Or Not!

Fishermen Shutdown By Global Warming...........by Patrick Whittle, AP

RT 11-6-2022, Pg A-18:
PORTLAND, Maine (AP) — Fishing regulators and the seafood industry are grappling with the possibility that some once-profitable species that have declined with climate change might not come back.
Officials in Alaska have canceled the fall Bristol Bay red king crab harvest and winter snow crab harvest,

Read ON about the devastating news release by Washington Post Broadcasts Norwegian North Sea AGW Warming Disaster
-
The Consulafft, at Bergen , Norway has reported disastrous warming of the Arctic waters at Lofoten and areas above the Arctic Circle.
It's reported that Obama, Gore, Mann, Greta et al are heading to Lofoten and Svalbard to view this dire situation
-
Reported by the AP and published in The Washington Post:
The Arctic Ocean is warming up, icebergs are growing scarcer and in some places the seals are finding the water too hot, according to a report to the Commerce Department yesterday from Consulafft, at Bergen , Norway
-
Reports from fishermen, seal hunters, and explorers all point to a radical change in climate conditions and hitherto unheard-of temperatures in the Arctic zone. Exploration expeditions report that scarcely any ice has been met as far north as 81 degrees 29 minutes.
-
Soundings to a depth of 3,100 meters (2-miles deep) showed the gulf stream still very warm. Great masses of ice have been replaced by moraines of earth and stones, the report continued, while at many points well known glaciers have entirely disappeared.
-
Very few seals and no white fish are found in the eastern Arctic, while vast shoals of herring and smelts which have never before ventured so far north, are being encountered in the old seal fishing grounds. Within a few years it is predicted that due to the ice melt the sea will rise and make most coastal cities uninhabitable.

I apologize! I neglected to mention that this report was from November 2, 1922, as reported by the AP and published in The Washington Post - 100 years ago and I have No idea where Obama, Biden, Gore, Mann, Greta are or are heading.

This 1922 warming was 53-years 'before the start' of significant CO2 build-up that started in 1975.
