You do realize what the word 'solar' indicates, right?

Well, the Stanford professors are using the word solar for panels that generate electricity at night so I guess I can also. Hey how about rebutting me on the ivermectin/Japan thing.

Nighttime panels only create a small amount  but they are in  the early development phase.

Scientist are also developing panels that create energy from the friction of rain hitting them.

Israeli Officials Say U.S. Blindsided Them with Surprise Hamas ‘Agreement’

Israeli officials said Monday that Biden administration officials had secretly worked with mediators, without Israel’s knowledge, to craft a Hamas “agreement” to ceasefire terms in an attempt to deter an attack on Hamas in Rafah.

Trump cites reports from liberal media outlets as even those say DA has no case
By Kaydi Pelletier

Wearing a navy suit and gold tie this morning, Trump spoke to reporters in the court hallway first commenting on canceled college graduations at Columbia and elsewhere, saying he's "never seen anything like this."

He went on to defend the payments to his former "fixer" lawyer, Michael Cohen, that are at the crux of the case.

"The legal expense that we paid was put down as legal expense," he said. "Everyone's saying 'Oh geez, that's the fraud.'

"The other thing: this was approved by all agencies, there's been nothing hidden at all."

Trump also claimed that "some of the statements made about this witch hunt" — even by left-leaning media outlets like "fake news CNN," "Good Morning America" and NBC's "Today" are saying the prosecution "has no case."

"With all that's going on, they have no case," Trump said. "Virtually everyone that I've seen has said there's no case.

"This all comes out of the White House and crooked Joe Biden.

"It happens in third world countries. It's never happened in this country."

New Study: Climate Change Could Reduce The World Economy 19% By 2049

I am an attorney who writes about ESG policy, laws, and regulations.

A new study claims that loss of productivity because of climate change could result in a 19% reduction in the world economy by 2049. Despite the number being significantly higher than previous studies, the authors claim their numbers are conservative and could be as high 29% of the global GDP. Climate activists were quick to latch onto the study, calling for more aggressive measures to prevent climate change and fund mitigation efforts.

The study, The economic commitment of climate change, was published in Nature on April 17 by researchers at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, also known as PIK, a non-profit organization funded by the German government.



While I am not an economist, in my opinion the data seems flawed. According to a study published by NOAA in January 2024, the average temperature has risen 2° F since 1850. In that same period, the global GDP increased from $1.73 trillion to $134.08 trillion. If we accept the climate projection models used in the study, it dismisses the resiliency of human nature and our ability to overcome economic challenges.

Immigration Officials: Nearly 80,000 People Approved For DACA Had Arrest Records, Many For Violent Crimes

CBS News 12/1/2019

As the Supreme Court continues to weigh the fate of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, U.S. immigration officials have released a new report revealing the arrest records of many immigrants who were approved for DACA -- including thousands in New York and New Jersey.

According to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, just under 80,000 of the country's DACA recipients were approved despite having at least one arrest prior to applying for the program. Of those arrests, thousands were for violent crimes including murder, assault, and various sex crimes.

USCIS reports that -- of the 79,398 people approved for DACA after being arrested -- over 3,300 had been charged with assault, over 300 faced sexual abuse or rape charges, and 15 DACA requestors were approved despite being arrested for murder.

See The Full Report Here

The Nov. 16 report does not detail who was arrested for which crime in each state however, USCIS says between 2,500 and 10,000 New York residents had an arrest record when they filed for immigration protection. Those arrest numbers were the same for DACA requestors from New Jersey.

Trump posted on Truth Social about next witness this morning — then deleted it
By Kaydi Pelletier

Donald Trump posted on Truth social about an hour and a half ago that he heard who the next witness would be, and that his lawyers had no time to prepare.

The former president is under a court gag order that prohibits him from commenting about the jury or witnesses in the trial. The judge has found him in violation of the order 10 times, and has fined Trump $10,000 as well as threatened the defendant with jail time "as a last resort."

These slip ups are becoming very common.  You know, and I know they are really one of the definitions of a
"Gaff."  Accidentally saying the truth. He didn't mean what he said, but it's the truth by accident.  It's like the "greatest voter fraud in history!"  He meant to lie, but the truth slipped through.

Joe got mad at the Guy who didn't agree with him when he asked if they were doing better with the Trump Tax cut.  The old mad man brain got his mouth moving and talking shit.  He probably wanted to ask the guy to step out side and fight him.  He was going to Corn Pop the guy.

21 Unfortunate Electric Vehicle Flaws That No One Is Discussing

The transition to electric vehicles (EVs) is a critical step towards reducing dependence on fossil fuels and addressing climate change, but it raises important concerns about the sustainability of the EV battery supply chain. The extraction of key battery materials such as lithium, cobalt, and nickel is often linked to environmental degradation and human rights abuses, including child labor and unsafe working conditions. Legislative initiatives in the United States, including the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act and the Inflation Reduction Act, are geared towards strengthening EV battery supply chains by funding programs for clean energy manufacturing, recycling, and critical materials processing.

Simultaneously, ongoing research aims to replace harmful materials like cobalt with more sustainable alternatives, although the challenges of battery recycling and ethical sourcing remain significant. This complex scenario underscores the need for a comprehensive approach to making EV batteries more sustainable and ethically produced.
