That’s all I got for today. I’ll leave you with a song and move along with my day.
“Hunter Biden’s direct payments to father coincided with Chinese transfers, bank inquiries”
Just like we did with the 2020 election, if we refuse to look for proof, we can claim there is no evidence!
The talking point is that those were all “loan repayments”.
Nothing to see here, all is well.
Then surely he has the loan terms, what the loan(s) were for and all the other fiduciary documents to back that up. *I crack myself up sometimes*
C’mon Jack… they were just small loans between family members for multi-millions… You’ve all been there! (Or at least you will soon with Bidenomics! A multimillionaire in every house! Digital currency because you can’t haul that much cash to the store for groceries!)
My question: with all the money sloshing around in that family, what do they need loans for?
Do you even launder, bro?
What, like, with Calgon?
It’s in keeping with the Ancient Chinese Secret theme.
Hah! Yeah, I am sure the people that tell you Trump needs to be disqualified and imprisoned for having “classified documents” while ignoring Biden has far more, even though as the president Trump was the only one with the right to them, and Biden as a senator did not, will care about any legalities other than “We will not look for criminality that is clear, and we will gaslight the usual idiots to not care”.
And the asset evaluations…
“We have seen no evidence to convince us otherwise.”
“Jim Jordan Says House Moving Forward With Biden Impeachment Inquiry Vote”
Be careful you idiots. Do not do team blue’s dirty work of getting rid of Joe for them.
Impeach, just don’t convict. Do it four times just to break Donnie’s record.
There’s no chance of conviction anyway, no matter the evidence.
True. That talk about how Republicans shouldn’t have thrown Santos out shows how far we’ve fallen. Trafficant was kicked out with only one vote against – which came from someone else under an ethics cloud.
But if those standards were applied equally just how much of the Democrat House/Senate would need to be expelled for that and worse? Toss in Republicans for judgement by that metric and you’ve got what, 30% left in office?
And?
I’m not seeing the problem here.
You’re not seeing 1/500 plus as a problem when we should be doing closer to 400?
They didn’t kick out Trafficant until convicted.

“John Kerry is accused of farting during climate speech where he asked for coal power plants to be eliminated”
Did Lurch eat meat and that is what caused the flatulence? Did he hire Swalwell’s people to help improve his image and they recommended gas attacks? Was this an AI attack on him to stop him from preventing power generation the AI wants? Inquiring minds want to know…
You know — I’m no more a fan of Kerry than anyone here — but can we as a society stop being such teenage girls about things? He’s human… this kind of thing happens sometimes. Do your best to not visibly notice and don’t embarrass the guy for no reason. (Yes, I get the flatulence / methane at a Climate Change Cult Conference adds an extra layer… but still.) Not like he pooped his pants in front of the Pope or something.
The fact that the toot and not the idiotic contents of his speech is what draws the eyeballs is damning
Intentional misdirection.
don’t embarrass the guy for no reason.
Can John Kerry feel embarrassment?
SDF-7 is a farter!!! Ha-Ha *Nelson’s voice
It’s all them bugs and weird veggies they eat.
Except THEY don’t eat them, they have lavish banquets with all sorts of meat.
Some animals are more equal than other animals.
Was this an AI attack on him to stop him from preventing power generation the AI wants?
I suppose we’ll know the AI has taken over when the Greenies stop objecting to nuclear generation.
We’ll know actual for-real AI exists in those few terrifying seconds when computer controlled machinery kills everyone not needed to serve our new robot overlords.
“Federal Court Stays Prison Sentence of Meme-Maker Douglass Mackey Pending Appeal”
If they put this guy in jail for this, I want to see all the democrats that have done this shit and especially Google’s top men, also be put in jail for their election manipulation efforts.
You forgot, it’s okay when their side does it. Because they control the DOJ and the media.
There was someone on the ‘other team’ that did the same exact thing at the same time.
“John Fetterman Hires George Santos to Troll Bob Menendez”
Don’t fall for this shit. They are distracting you from Jamal Bowman needing to be kicked out of the house.
George Santos takes money from Democrats! Impeach!
When’s the last time the D’s have kicked out one of their own. ‘Member when perjury was NBD?
All the previous members who have been expelled were all Democrats, with three being before the great Party Switch narrative.
105 Republicans kicking out one of their own is one of the stupidest things I’ve seen the Stupid Party do in years.
Sorry, Republicans – the Dems just aren’t that into you.
It gives a better excuse for not delivering on their campaign promises, n’est-ce pas?
Without doing that they would have lost the quiet dignity they have along with the trust and love of their various constituencies (heh, oh god I kill me).
If Santos is one of their own, then fuck ’em, they shouldn’t be in office. I can of course say much the same about most Dems.
I’m not guessing at who deserves to be in office, I’m just saying the party is being played – again.
They have a razor-thin majority and at this rate they’re going throw it away.
Yep.
Alcee Hastings served 20 years.
For a start, they could expel Omar for immigration fraud and not be qualified to hold office.
I am looking forward to when the Democrats accuse the Republicans of anti-LGTBQ, racism, etc. for expelling this wonderful man (?) of diversity.
Gay men are too low on the victim stack for that. He needed to claim he was a woman.
He did dress in drag.
I’m looking forward to Santos’ former constituents delivering a gigantic fuck you message by reflecting him in a special election for his seat.
/hilarity would ensue
Preston Brooks, after beating Sumner, resigned and then won re-election.
The Repubs should have offered a package deal – up or down vote on kicking out Santos and Bowman.
Why didn’t Santos pull the fire alarm before the vote?
Good morning!
The cafeteria is becoming more diverse. There have always been special meals for Thanksgiving, Christmas & St. Paddy’s, and there’s been special food giveaways for Eid, Diwali, Cinco de Drinko and Lunar New Year, but for the first time, they’re giving out (((jelly donuts))).

Apparently, being able to eat chametz during Passover.
Also, my spellchecker recognizes chametz as a perfectly cromulent word.

Where was Al Gore?
John Fetterman, a brain damaged troll who dresses like a cross between Michael Moore and a 1980s rapper, has more media savvy than 95 percent of congress. Just sad really.
I am not sure it is savvy rather more like an artificially elevated platform knowing he is a lightning rod to the ‘right’.
His brain seems to be recovering from the stroke.

Believable but also this is the WSJ who is all in on war and against Putin even when he says the sky is blue. Seems a bit too on the nose.
Also, except for the military term, how exactly is this different from the actions of your average Democrat?
“John Kerry is accused of farting”
Classic misdirection and they want the plebs talking about that rather than the nonsense that he spoke. The only farts emitted by that old fool came out of his mouth, truly an attack on affordable energy for everyone with a bank account south of 100 mil.
Germans would literally freeze to death without the new coal plants they had to build last year because their “leaders” stupidly shut down all their nuclear plants.
Why does John Kerry hate Germans?
Not just Germans, all humanity that isn’t part of the political elite. That walking Easter Island head would be happy bringing feudalism back and he has a contempt for the average person that’s hard to look at.
I didn’t notice it in the article, but assuming the Senate also votes to block funding Iran, does it matter unless Joe signs it?
Or is this just more performative bullshit for the rubes?
Likely requires Joe’s signature because that’s SOP for Congress. Delegate authority requiring Presidential approval to revoke delegation.
On Hunter Biden, it just seems strange to me Joe would do this through his son, I would expect a more distant round about way that would not be so easily linked to him.
Why? Xi could hand him a paper bag full of $100 bills on the tarmac in front of AF1 and . . . Nothing Else Would Happen.
Your mistake is you are assuming Joe Biden is (or ever was) competent.
The man who was Obama’s shield against assassination.
The man who failed every single Presidential run he ever made (am I remembering right that he never won a single state?) until suddenly the Party decided he was The
PuppetGuy.The man who those who worked with him said he was dead wrong on every foreign policy stance he ever took.
The man who the rest of the Senate considered a complete tool.
So yeah — he certainly should have done a better job of covering his tracks (Clinton Foundation, anyone?). And this should have come out years (if not decades) ago if we had journalists worth the name.
But do I believe he’d screw up to this extent? Hell yes.
He’s been a complete bullshitter his entire career, and nobody’s called him out on it (besides a few people on the radio). He’s arrogant enough to think he can get away with anything.
Rather like Ted K. Imagine if he’d won in 1984 or any other year?
Well summarized, SDF.
Remember, Hunter is the smartest person Joe knows. (He doesn’t get out much…)
The man who failed every single Presidential run he ever made (am I remembering right that he never won a single state?) until suddenly the Party decided he was The Puppet Guy.
He never got through the nominating process for his earlier Presidential runs.
He dropped out of the 1988 Presidential race in September 1987 due to being caught lying about his past. In his 2008 run he pulled out after a poor showing in the Iowa Caucus. 2008 is when Obama tapped Biden for Vice President.
What’s weird is he was also getting clobbered in the primaries until south carolina.
Now the democrats are moving south carolina up the schedule.
He bombed in the Iowa caucuses in 2020 as well. But it didn’t matter.
:facepalm:
Incentives, mf’ers… how do they work?!?!
Quite well.
It’s Jew-killing time again, and the BLM/antifa/Commie street goons are just what Our Masters need for that job. So, yeah, they know exactly what they’re doing.
Your default shouldn’t be that the system is broken. It should be that the system is working exactly as intended.
I mean, it’s not like they did something sacrilegious, like putting their dirty, heathen, plebian feet on Pelosi’s desk.
Exactly. The correct question is what are the revealed preferences?
They want to plunder people’s savings & investments now that they are spending nearly double what they can steal from people today in taxes..
This is one of those things that should be such a no-brainer. If you haven’t sold an asset, there is no income on it. Market speculation prices on what you might get (if you’re lucky) if you sold it can’t count… it is just insanity.
But they do keep trying to trot this out to steal steal steal…. 150 years ago the tar would be boiling and Mistress Clucky would be missing a lot of plumage….
Stop trying to use logic and common sense to prevent the criminals in government from getting their “fair share” of YOUR money, brah.
I’d like to remind you that this was part of the Trump Tax Cuts!!! Let’s keep down the applause for the Stupid Party.
Yes, it isn’t like the article left that out or anything.

“A home was destroyed by a large explosion in a Washington, D.C., suburb as police were trying to execute a search warrant in response to reports of a man discharging a flare gun inside.
Police visited a house in Arlington, Va., at around 4:45 p.m. ET Monday following reports of a man firing a flare gun about 30 or 40 times into the surrounding neighborhood, the local police department said in a statement.”
I’m guessing there were all kinds of interesting things in crazy guy’s house.
It was the missing J6 munitions depot. /just getting in front of the Narrative
So far (assuming the Twitter investigation links at the bottom here are accurate) looks like a Grade A loon who thought his neighbors were spies (including a 7 year old) tracking him since the ’90s, that Whites were out to get him in general and I assume was amassing an arsenal / bomb equipment and freaked when the police came to talk to him about t he flare.
But 48 hour rule should probably apply.

Biden is crooked as shit. He took bribes from our enemies. You know it, I know it and everyone else knows it, yet outside of here no one seems to want to say it out loud. He gives our money to our sworn enemies which they then use to shoot at us. He should be more than impeached. He and his handlers should spend the rest of their lives in prison for treason.
I see Doug finally raised enough money.
As for the rest of the banana republic monkey shit – remember when we told ourselves ‘It cant happen here’? I remember. We kept telling ourselves that and ignoring it while it crept up on us. Look where we are now. If we dont put a stop to it, and I mean really let the hammer down, it will destroy us. Like the bison idiot, we will deserve it.
If we have reached this level of duncery what is going to happen with AI in the mix?
Once it’s capable I think it’ll just skip the sexbots and go straight to eliminating us. We’re too stupid to handle ourselves and why would it want to bother?
/recaps 55 gallon barrel of lube
Ahh, shucks, I was looking forward to that part.
The Central Scrutinizer tells me that it isn’t all it is cracked up to be.
“Biden is crooked as shit. ”
I will remind everyone that they are NOT protecting Biden by avoiding this reality in toto, but Obama. People that think Biden was the only corrupt one in the Obama administration are missing the point that the entire administration was a criminal enterprise. The reason most people don’t know that all of them were fucking engaging in criminal shit is because they were good at programming what people go for news.
Also, if you think that the Obama admin using the spy agencies to spy on the Trump campaign was a one of instead of SOP for them and what they had been doing since before the 2012 election on anyone and everyone they saw as a threat, then you are missing the boat. It was not an accident that the IRS was sicked on any and all enemies and problematic entities the Obama admin wanted to kneecap.
Chicago gangsterism at its best. Biden’s problem is that he is about the dumbest fuckwad and used his son, whom also is a dumb fuckwad, to do the criminal shit all out in the open.
You are correct. I was going to put that in the comment but I keep having my focus interrupted. I hate that. Dogs, TV, Wife, dogs dogs dogs. Whine for food. Bang on the door to go out. Bang on the door to come in.
There are always dogs more annoying than your own. See YouTube.

Can’t tell if he thinks the propaganda is pro-Venezuela or pro-Guyana.
well the west propaganda is pro Guyana. The TRUTH in the meme is pro Venezuela
As Americans, it is our duty to UNCONDITIONALLY support Venezuela’s claim to Guayana Esequiba.
Venezuela is fighting the remnants of foreign meddling in the America’s.
Guayana’s border with Venezuela, called the Schomburgk Line, was established by Britain near the middle of the 1800s.
Like Israel, it is entirely artificial, and cut right into established Venezuelan territory. It was an outright violation of Pan-American sovereignty by a completely foreign power that has no business in our continent.
It was an outright challenge to the sovereignty of ALL sovereign American countries, including our own.
When the patriotic Venezuelans appealed to us for help, we defended their right to dispute the claims against Britain.
But the international bankster cartel, nearing a full coup of US sovereignty with the establishment of the federal reserve in 1913, ensured that the US-led commission decide in Britain’s favor.
We betrayed our Venezuelan brothers and the American cause itself.
https://twitter.com/InfraHaz/status/1731815382623613375
I think the bigger problem is Brazil’s reaction to Venezuela’s attempt to take something they figured would be theirs…
This is going to get interesting…
I am amenable to the idea that we should always tell Europeans to fuck off, especially in our own personal hemisphere. 🙂
A proud Tankie. All I need to know.
If he cared about Venezuela, he’d be all in on removing Maduro and the rest of the Chavista thugs.
Yeah, don’t really care who’s right on the dispute but it certainly looks like one of those, “pressure is mounting at home, let’s go to war somewhere” things.
Well, I tend to go with “Venezuela shouldn’t be invading countries to seize their oil reserves”, myself.
We can keep our dick in our pants, of course. Just give Brazil the high sign and let them handle it. Of course, once Brazil’s army is in Guyana, they’ll probably stay. That’s a sweet oil field, after all.
Yeah, that’s fair. I was more on the timing of Venezuela. It seems fairly obvious it’s a distraction.
Smooth sailing — but being an “easy” rating day, no more than I should expect of myself.

Ugh… not a Vivek fan — but this columnist doesn’t appear to even vaguely entertain the notion that the “FBI responsibilities” are things the Feds shouldn’t be doing and there’s no need to plan to “dump it off” on the Marshals or anyone else. Hey Buddy… they should stop doing that. (And then the CIA, NSA and the rest of the techocratic puppeteer assholes in the IC).
The problem with too many people is that as long as the criminality benefits them, they are fine with it.
Federal agencies that have that kind of power WILL be weaponized. The author’s a retard.

We wouldn’t miss the ATF, DEA, or Secret Service either.
FBI is pretty good for kidnappings and maintaining CODIS and other databases, and they’re a good way to deal with crimes that cross state borders. And they track foreign criminals working within the US.
But, yeah, they should mostly do just that kind of work: criminal investigations of the kinds of things normal people consider to be crimes, not vague grand conspiracies or hypothetical future domestic threats.

I find it insulting. Are they saying that women, BIPOC, etc whiners have no coping skills?
Why yes. Yes they are,

That guy’s grift has been so wildly successful I can only stand in awe of it.
Oh, and wish for him to rot in fucking hell with every other hateful, racist, and destructive asshole.
It actually is pretty impressive that a racist hack has been able to attract so much wealth and power. By the 1970s, we had pretty much eliminated this from the white community. I mean, David Duke did pop up, but he gained his limited appeal by hiding his racist roots and packaging it as not-racism.
Kendi just went all in with fully bore racial superiority. Old school. Like Farrakhan with the blue-eyed devil created by an evil genie (therefore not even human)
Liberals are self hating, and many in the black community are not dedicated to anti racism the way whites have been trained to be.
Kendi truly is the Blaq face of whitey supremacy.

What’s Italian for “whoopsie?”
https://behindtheblack.com/behind-the-black/points-of-information/italian-subcontractor-for-arianespace-misplaces-two-rocket-tanks/
I thought ‘whoopsie’ was already Italian for ‘it fell off the truck’.
No, that is Italian-American. Italian-Italian would be “Brakes? Why you want brakes? Car to go fast, no?”
That is impressive.
Actually, it seems a fairly easy mistake…. A couple of metal tanks are moved to the parking lot, probably near the scrap from renovations, and some guy is contracted to “pick up the scrap in the parking lot” and just takes it all.
Also, odd that they don’t mention a desire to use one of the US based launchers. Probably cheaper.
or some gypsies contracted themselves as scrap iron is big business
Or Gypsies have their own space program.
they are a nomadic peoples
Space Gypsies?
also cheaper is not the point. Cheaper does not create jobs in all countries who want a piece of the funding pie
I’m glad we don’t do that here….
thank god for the extreme libertarians in charge of the US Federal Government
Interestingly, I got into a discussion with Destiny from smarter every day and a bunch of other olds space fans about the NASA way and SLS as an unkillable 25,000 jobs program just last night.
I wonder how many other federal programs are designed like this? NASA isn’t alk that big in the grand scheme of things.
I suppose all of defense is like that. We even have bases around the country in areas that don’t really lend themselves to fighting off invaders.
Back in the long ago, BeerAdvocate magazine had an interview with the brewer who had come up with Blue Moon for MillerCoors. One of the key things he brought up was that while it was a huge volume for craft brewers to contemplate, it was a drop in the bucket at the MillerCoors breweries. They mentioned that several times they had “lost” a batch in the brewery, just because someone mislabeled it.
Was disappointed when I saw what they meant by “rocket tanks”.

So it’s a lie?
They said “far right”!
People protesting the murder of kids are always far-right, aren’t they?
But seriously, they are right.
With all news under the control of the government, and Facebook and YouTube and Instagram playing along, I am quite sure that X played a critical role in spreading the news, news that otherwise would have been quietly dissipated and replaced with something more useful to the government.
I’m no expert, but it seems there’s plenty of media that fuels left wing violence.

The Supreme Court hears arguments Tuesday in an obscure tax case with potentially trillions of dollars in tax consequences for the federal budget. It is a case that has tax law specialists both gobsmacked and alarmed.
——-
Some of the facts the Moores have put forth are disputed, but importantly, the case is widely viewed by advocates on both sides, as a preventive strike against any wealth tax of the kind proposed by Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass. Not that anyone thinks such a tax has any chance of passing in Congress.
Still, if the Moores were to win, the federal government could be forced to pay back billions of dollars in corporate tax collections, and the effects for lots of other tax provisions could be profound.
Former House Speaker Paul Ryan, a Republican, shepherded the 2017 tax law through the house, including the provision before the Supreme Court Tuesday.
“As a person who drafted that…the goal was to finance a conversion from one system to another,” Ryan says. “I’m not for a wealth tax but I think if you use this as an argument to spike a wealth tax, you’re going to basically get rid of… a third of the tax code.”
I don’t have a problem with that.
Indeed. Now get rid of a third of the government, just as a good faith gesture.
I identify with this sentiment.
Hell, cutting a third wouldn’t even get us to “reasonable”.
Considering spending already outpaces tax collection – it’s gonna need to be more like half.
Absolutely agreed. As long as we are dreaming, dream big.
Well, Cato keeps telling me that we have never been able to collect more than about 18% of GDP in taxes, regardless of marginal rates (at least not on a sustainable basis).
Since we bounce around more like 23, 24, 25% these days… The solution is obvious.
Ya got a pen that’ll write on this cocktail napkin?
Stop. I can only get so erect!
If unrealized gains were counted as “income” wouldn’t unrealized losses be counted as deductions?

I mean, with that kind of opening, I don’t think I’m going to much care what she has to say the rest of the way. Flying in like that, with someone else doing all the prep – that’s pretty fucking ostentatious. I have one time arrived on playa, via ground transport, with a small backpack because the wife had already driven in. For me, it was insanely weird – and for this woman, she has no idea. I will grant, there are dumb rituals – but maybe I feel that way because I never did the dust angel, ass-smack (as they did in the old days) or bell ringing. She also speaks the truth about it being a crucible for relationships.

Well, she managed to hook up with a real asshole. This is the kind of camp and people I despise. Worse. I haven’t read the rest, but I hope she dumped him.
She triumphed over herself and learned to love the Playa.
Maybe, didn’t sound like it at the end, or that she was smart enough to dump him.
That’s how I interpreted the ending (refugee reference added for clarity)
OK, maybe she is a masochist. She enjoyed the drugs I guess.
I had an invite to go to Burning Man in ’92. These people were the same going then.

It wasn’t the guns and dope, it is the combination of the two that scares the piss out of me. And those are enough of the same people who go know, as shown in ah-ticle.

And tax law experts of from liberal to conservative warn that if the Supreme Court were to strike down the tax provision, the effects would be disastrous.
Chye-Ching Huang, director of the NYU Tax Law Center says, “It would be chaos, and we would be facing a tsunami of tax litigation over years and decades trying to sort through the rubble of this.”
The justices “are not playing with fire,” says Callas. They are playing with “enriched uranium,” and they don’t even know they could “blow up large portions of the tax code.”
They don’t read NPR? Or the Washington Post? Or any of the hysterical amicus filings from “tax experts”?
What a stupid assertion. These people just blurt out anything they think sounds convincing.
Actual tax law experts don’t care about the effects on federal revenue. They might care about simplification – that would be bad for business. Everyone else opining as an expert is a lying jack-off partisan shit-bird.
Battlespace prep in case the Nazgul opines out of their favor and they can go about making the typical “They aren’t CPAs! They shouldn’t be allowed to rule against this!”
Oh, they’re legit terrified at not getting a wealth tax (without it being proportioned amongst the states). This is a big fucking no to that.

I was watching one of those Ancient Alien shows this weekend. Recently I heard the theory that all that UFO stuff just comes from the CIA, to make the other countries think we have secret alien technology and weapons. That makes a lot of sense to me. Think about all the Area 51 things happening in the 50’s and 60’s, right in the middle of the Cold War. Even makes sense now to make China and Russia think we have better tech than they do.
I think the latest round is exactly equivalent to the Feingold election stuff. A false flag from the Intelligence community designed to discredit.
they are targeting people like Rogan and Charleston with believable sounding folks, probably backed by some credible resume and folks who vouched for them behind the scenes (just like Deibold). Those supporting references will all disappear, and we will be left with cranks who never could have been believed.
Not Feingold. Deibold. But thanks, autocorrect.
AI Freudian slip?
Pretty much if you look into anyone, though, the resumes aren’t that credible. imo at least.

An influencer who staged a plane crash in California to make a YouTube video of himself parachuting to safety has been sentenced to six months in federal prison for obstructing the investigation by destroying the wreckage.
Trevor Daniel Jacob, 30, an experienced pilot and skydiver, pleaded guilty in June to one count of destruction and concealment with the intent to obstruct a federal investigation.
The video titled I Crashed My Airplane appeared in December 2021 and purported to show Jacob’s small plane have engine failure over the mountainous Los Padres national forest in Santa Barbara county. Already wearing a parachute, he jumped out with a selfie stick camera in hand.
His jump and the aircraft’s plunge were recorded by cameras mounted on the plane’s wing and tail and by the camera he carried. After landing, he hiked to the crash site and recovered video from the onboard cameras, the government said.
I’m surprised the state didn’t get him for littering and improper disposal of hazardous carcinogens.
Suddenly, I feel like a rousing chorus of Alice’s Restaurant.
And the plane crasherre?

Working backward
As Vox’s Umair Irfan has explained, a vast majority of countries previously agreed to try to limit the average global temperature to 1.5°C more than what the average Earth temperature was prior to the Industrial Revolution. The idea is that limiting the increase to 1.5°C is the most realistic strategy for minimizing extreme weather events and other climate catastrophes. Because of the number’s international importance, Jaber’s critics took his statement as undermining research regarding the causes of climate change, and as a threat to COP’s goals.
Climate scientists have emphasized that Jaber’s statements are inaccurate, with some noting that they’re reminiscent of arguments the fossil fuel industry is known for making. According to the 2023 report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, greenhouse gas emissions — which are heavily caused by the usage of fossil fuels — would need to be slashed to almost half by 2030 to keep the temperature increase below 1.5°C. Scientists have also worried that it’s too late to even limit the temperature increase to that level and that the goal is no longer tenable. As Irfan noted, for example, 2023 might be the first year the world’s average temperatures rise above the 1.5°C mark.
When the a priori goal is the elimination of fossil fuels, any contradictory alternative is unacceptable and counterproductive. You might as well say the “temperature goals” are arbitrary fiction used to justify a predetermined course of action.
“Vast Majority”
You mean Europe?
“what the average Earth temperature was prior to the Industrial Revolution”
How much prior? One year? 10? 10,000? 100,000? Kind of makes a difference. Also assuming there was one “average” temperature that could be calculated. This is about as scientific as sociology.
Sociology is more falsifiable.
Bullshit. They have no evidence for any of this.
Oh, and the sun might have other ideas. Idiots.
“Al Jaber’s comments are absurd and troubling, betraying both an ignorance about the science and a dismissiveness about the need for rapid decarbonization, which is at the very center of the proceedings over which he is in principle presiding as COP28 president,” University of Pennsylvania climate scientist Michael Mann told Vox.
Jaber’s comments also directly conflict with statements made by many world leaders, including UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, who said on Friday: “The science is clear: The 1.5C limit is only possible if we ultimately stop burning all fossil fuels. Not reduce, not abate. Phase out, with a clear timeframe.”
Thou shalt not contradict the bobblehead consensus.
This guy needs to learn how to lay down and obey the Western Elites even if it’s directly against the interests of his own country.
If ever there was a bright line for making the case for ending all U.S. support for the U.N., it is the guy in charge of it heatedly calling for all humanity to revert to the Stone Age, via a totalitarian dictatorship, by eliminating all fossil fuel use, including coal to heat dwellings in the winter.
“The outcome of COP28 must be that all the oil, gas, and coal nations of the world see that now we are truly at the beginning of the end of the fossil fuel era for the world economy. And that we are now starting to bend the curve, properly,” Johan Rockstrom, director of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, told CNBC.
How will these preening imbeciles get their jets to future meetings? Rubber band power?
A single one of these people need to look at graph.
Fossil fuel growth significantly outpaced solar and wind combined this year. And will continue to do so ever year.

The Atlantic announced Monday the magazine’s January/February issue would be dedicated to what a second Trump term would mean for immigration, civil rights, the Justice Department, climate and more. The magazine’s editor-in-chief, Jeffrey Goldberg, wrote an editor’s note titled, “A Warning,” to introduce the series.
The New York Times on Monday published its latest piece in a series focused on what a second Trump term might mean for the country. In it, the reporters noted Trump’s rhetoric on the campaign trail “has attracted growing alarm and comparisons to historical fascist dictators and contemporary populist strongmen.”
And a Washington Post opinion column penned by editor-at-large Robert Kagan headlined, “A Trump dictatorship is increasingly inevitable. We should stop pretending,” made an extensive case that Trump’s reelection could feasibly set the U.S. on a path to becoming a dictatorship.
So horrifying. What is your greatest fear? That is what the cartoon villain will do. Like Alfred Hitchcock, they leave it yo the audience to fill in the blanks.
What they’re scared of is that Trump would do with power what they just did with it.
Hahaha, so The Atlantic is now following the lead of National Review (in ’16)?
“What is your greatest fear?”
Given that Kagan is involved, the greatest fear is probably no new wars.
So, yesterday I prepped the MicroSD card for the Raspberry Pi. Today the Pi arrived, so I figured I’d do the initial config check over lunch.
First problem was that I couldn’t SSH from my regular desktop.
Since autologin on the console was enabled by default, I wasn’t sure if my password was set correctly, so I reset it on the Pi console. No Dice.
So I checked the sshd_config. On the way I noticed that typing | was getting ~, so I checked the keyboard locale. It was set to UK. Fixed that.
In the sshd_config, I enabled password auth since I hadn’t set up a key pair yet. Still not able to login remotely.
Turns out, my initial password was just fine, but since I’d reset it with a Keyboard locale of UK, the special characters didn’t come out the same when typed on my properly configured US locale keyboard on the desktop. So I had to reset the password once again to get it back to where it had started.
Now I’m out of lunch.
pi5? My order from…9/29 has still not shipped.

But news outlets and opinion columnists are not alone in suggesting another Trump presidency could have catastrophic consequences for American democracy.
“I think it’s a very, very real threat and concern,” former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.), an outspoken Trump critic, told NBC’s “Today” on Monday when asked about the risk of the U.S. becoming a dictatorship under Trump.
“And I don’t say any of that lightly and frankly, it’s painful for me as someone who has spent her whole life in Republican politics, who grew up as a Republican to watch what’s happening to my party and to watch the extent to which Donald Trump himself has basically determined that the only thing that matters is him, his power and his success,” she added.
Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.), who, like Cheney, served on the House panel that investigated the Jan. 6 riots, told MSNBC last month a second Trump term “would look a lot like Viktor Orban in Hungary — illiberal democracy, meaning democracy without rights, or liberties, or respect for the due process, the system, the rule of law.”
Some people agree with us. They’re very very smart.
They have decided the narrative. Now they just need keep beating it into people’s heads, and flat out making shit up to support it.
Trump will probably be in jail just before the election.
With 50% of likely Republican voters saying they won’t vote for him in that case, it seems pretty perfectly timed.
It seems unjustifiable though to be worried about him anyway though . Trump didn’t really succeed in dismantling much of the government before. Or doing much of anything really.
He did in their heads and that is all that matters.
I was reading the other day how British industrial productivity has gone up since Brexit. And that, along with Trumps economy, is what truly scares the piss out of them. The simple fact that the world will succeed without their expertise is a nightmare of epic proportions.
