‘Republicans’ who endorse Biden aren’t Republicans at all

In anticipation of what will likely be another major liberal media narrative during this election cycle, it must be said: Republicans who support President Joe Biden are not Republicans in any meaningful way.

This was an obnoxious media narrative in 2020, which saw Biden trot out several former Republicans at the Democratic National Convention so he could posture as a centrist for voters. Many of those Republicans who backed Biden admitted to being played, given that Biden never contacted them after his election win, an enlightening bout of incompetence that explains exactly why an agitator like former President Donald Trump managed to take over the GOP by railing against a failed old guard establishment.

But it is in liberal media’s interest to pretend that Republicans who back Biden and condemn the entire existing GOP are still Republicans because it feeds into the narrative that Biden is the grand uniter who is willing to cross the aisle. That is why the Hill has compiled a list of “prominent Republicans” who are backing Biden: former RNC Chairman Michael Steele, former Rep. Adam Kinzinger, former Georgia Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan, and former Trump staffer Sarah Matthews.

It is hard to be impressed by the list. Steele hasn’t worked in GOP politics since 2011 and works for MSNBC. Both Kinzinger and Duncan walked out of their jobs right into gigs at another anti-Republican network in CNN. Calling Matthews “prominent” after serving as deputy press secretary for seven months is laughable outside of the circles of Washington, D.C., politicos.

It's TGIF already?  Made it through the week, and I got the paint-huffer dude11!!  Thanks for all the Toons and Extras, Pookie!!!  Have a great weekend, we'll see you and Argus Monday!

Why is China rapidly moving towards renewables in huge numbers?  No blacks in China, No WEF, No Antifa and certainty no left wing groups.

In 2022, China installed roughly as much solar photovoltaic capacity as the rest of the world combined, then went on in 2023 to double new solar installations, increase new wind capacity by 66 percent, and almost quadruple additions of energy storage.Mar 13, 2024

How China Became the World's Leader on Renewable Energy

CHina (Run by their Communist Party) IS a left wing group. 

Controlling most of the rare earths supply, slave labor, and with a totalitarian government, you can accomplish a lot.

Now tell me a bout the Spratly Islands, hegemony over the South China Sea, and offshore oil.

Oh here we go:

1. Conspiracy theory nonsense.

2. That classified info he read was from 20 years ago. It has been published all over the net since then.

3. Like coal?   

China is rapidly moving into renewable energy-more than all countries in the world combined.. Yes they are building coal plants left and right but many are not used rm use very little. Due to past droughts they lost their huge source of  hydro power They know they have a serious pollution problem.
Coal is also very expensive to China because of shipping from US and Australia. They also do not want to be dependent on us when war comes between our countries.

Here is something that isn't 'theory'. Twice in my career I experienced weather where the official NWS temperatures were given at -54 degrees Fahrenheit. For some time you could look up those temperatures in North Dakota and Wyoming, but now, they are gone. warmed up by 7 or eight degrees and the record temps are given as being in the 1930s.

It dawns on me that when screwing with data to make the curve hotter, that messing at the coldest temperatures might be the way to increase the temperatures for that year without raising the highs beyond what people recall. It's a classic 'watch one hand while the other one pulls off the trick' deception.

So, as far as I am concerned, your dataset is seriously and officially corrupted.

None of those 'adjustments' made the data any colder. Warming and cooling are part of the planet's normal cycle, and the critters that cannot adapt or move die off. I find it incredibly stupid that in this situation, humans would divest themselves of energy supplies that have worked and which might enable them to adapt to changing circumstances, just when they might need them most. That's ELS (Extinction Level Stupidity).
 
Climate runs in cycles, and even given that the cycle may be on the thermal uptick, who is to say that is a bad thing besides some real estate developers in coastal areas and insurance companies?
There is no owner's manual to lay out the status quo as the 'right temperature', only the howling of those who want to preserve a planet wide dynamic system in stasis. That is insanity. It is the delusions of power and grandeur of a few translated into Mass Formation Psychosis, and if allowed to proceed unchallenged, could conceivably lead to the extinction of humans, starving and shivering in the dark.

I'm from North Dakota, and I'm all for global warming, especially since the folks in charge declared war on anything but sunshine and wind as the means to derive energy warm a house--which just won't work here in the winter, and because it's just as easy to freeze to death at 25 below as it is at 30 below. If I wanted to live in some sunbelt hive I would be there. I don't.

AOC is more likely to scratch, bite or pull hair.

I see Sandy as a spitter.
