Oil Outrage

Good day Deano,

I hope today finds you well at your desk, as the Executive Editor of the iconic New York Times.  It seems as though the entire world is spinning out of control with bad news these days.  That is why I turn to your ever honest and trustworthy tabloid to get all your unbiased news reporting.  I must say I am disappointed that your news coverage of the INSURRECTION  is down to only 2/3 articles a day versus the usual 9/10.  I know we may be on the brink of WWIII (with nuclear weapons), but come on Deano, let’s not lose focus on the INSURRECTION.  Again, not the real one on November 3, 2020; the fabricated one on January 6, 2021.   But I digress, shall we take a look at what’s in the news lately, Deano old sport?

Joey: Our Fearless Leader

Well, day after day the news seems to get worse by the hour, over in the war ravaged Ukraine.  The only bright spot is the man fighting these atrocities, our esteemed leader Joey Robinette.  Conservatives, evidently don’t feel the same way Deano.   They insist that Joey Robinette Talibiden, has consistently led from behind.  He and his cast of inept, corrupt clowns are constantly slow walking policies, while this madman runs amok in the Ukraine.

After threats of sanctions and even sending the expert negotiator Heels Up Harris to set policy, it seems that tragically, those tactics failed miserably.  Which I have to say Deano was shocking, after Kalamity’s rousing success at the southern border.  Next, we set these sanctions in place, AFTER the invasion or minor incursion (as little Joey likes to call it).  Well, so far that is a big swing and a miss.  Next, Beijing Biden set his sights on seizing oligarchs yachts.  This seemed like a fantastic plan: As refugees are being slaughtered, mostly women and children, and city after city are destroyed……I say go after people’s pleasure ships…….seems reasonable.  Sadly, another swing and a miss by the head of the Biden crime family.  It seems Joey and his highly incompetent cabinet are running out of ideas of what to do?   Hmmmmm, any ideas Deano?

This Might Help

As usual, the unhinged right wingers are throwing some preposterous ideas out there champ.  This one is truly absurd but, let’s take a look.  Conservatives are screaming from the rooftops- shut down the import of Russian oil!  I know, this is news to you too Deano, as there is barely a mention of this in Pravda, I mean your NY Times.  It seems we are STILL importing over 600,000 barrels a day from ole madman Vlad.  Something to the tune of $22,000,000 a day.  On second thought, this may have a bigger impact on Putin’s genocide, than, you know, grabbing some boats.  President Trump is a racist!

Pelosi the Patriot

Well, it seems this idea is gaining a bit of steam Deano.  Even that truly bipartisan patriot, Chardonnay Pelosi is saying it is now on the table, and this option is being “considered.”  Ole Nanc, always putting party affiliation behind the good of the country and more importantly, the world.  It sort of brings a tear to your eye, her sincerity that is.  No doubt this policy will be attached to a scaled down Build Back Better fiasco. What’s a few more refugees being annihilated, so that we can get some windmills and amnesty for illegal aliens…..what’s not to like?

Joey’s Digging in

Well, so far Joey Bidenflation is standing firm.  Believe me, the man is not the mentally addled, corrupt monster the evil right portrays him as.  He is so upset with what is going on, he said he may not head to Delaware for one of his upcoming 3 day getaways.  We couldn’t get him to commit to which weekend though.   What’s the rush radical right?  When reporters  pressed him for comment about oil, down in Delaware during his latest junket: Sitting on his porch in a rocking chair, sparkler in one hand, s’more in the other, while wearing his trademark aviators and propeller hat he said, “stupid question….you stupid son of a b****h!”   “Dr.” Jill reportedly rushed Joey indoors, while Joey protested saying, “no fair, the other kids don’t have to go in yet!” Reportedly, “Dr.” Jill had tears in her eyes.

Liberals Point out Joey has Done a Ton in Regards to Oil Policy

  1. On his very first day, he shut down the Keystone XL Pipeline Project, with one of his ubiquitous executive orders (a few short years ago, Joey Robinette said, “this is how dictators rule.”)  Ah, what a difference a couple of years makes.
  2. He then refused to let oil companies drill on federal land and water.  While making ridiculous lease demands for drilling on private land.  This was also done on Brandon’s first day. Bravo!
  3. He now has put sanctions on the Nord Steam II pipeline from Russia.  As a side note, this pipeline is not completed and not transporting oil yet. As a bigger side note, elected President Trump had these sanctions in place before the insurrection on November 3, 2020.  Again, when Joey was installed, he removed these sanctions.  Now, Liberals are claiming these decisive sanctions show such strength and resolve………really Deano?

Conservatives Viewpoint

Conservatives say this installed puppet has declared war on fossil fuel companies. Well, actually his handlers have declared war.  As a result, we have to rely on OPEC and war criminals to supply our oil.  So, we contribute to genocide and have the highest average gallon of gas price since July 2008, at $4.17 for Americans….another win-win for the corrupt, feeble minded, treasonous fraud.  We have to get people  in those electric cars, one way or the other!    Word is, his inept cast of characters are now begging Venezuela, Iran and OPEC for oil.   Fantastic strategy, begging foreign countries for oil, when we were energy independent just 14 months ago.  Conservatives do say, Lying Biden gets great marks, if he is in fact,  purposely trying to destroy the United States. Word is though, he is outraged that fleeing refugees in Ukraine are not wearing masks, and he is thinking of issuing a mandate over in Ukraine.  We reached out to “Dr.” Fraudci, just to confirm the science and all, but he evidently is MIA lately.

Minor Deals

Average Americans are swimming in debt due to Joey’s runaway inflation.  This is in addition to 401k retirement accounts plummeting, supply chain shortages creating havoc, and out of control violent crime, etc, etc.

Plus, an ill advised revival of the 2015 nuclear arms deal with Iran. This was brokered originally by his mentor Barry Soetoro aka Barack Hussein, the original “great unifier.” Joey and the gang thought they could keep this one out of the headlines, with all the carnage going on overseas.  In addition, Russia is brokering that deal on our behalf. Now doesn’t that make you feel all warm and fuzzy, and more importantly safe!  That’s Joey, keeping America last.

American Hostage?

It seems WNBA star, Brittney Griner, has been arrested for drug paraphernalia found in her luggage.  She is now facing 19 years in a Russian prison. Liberal  lawmakers here are worried Putin will use her as leverage and hold her hostage.  Others point out, if the charges are in fact true, and she did in fact commit a crime, she would be a prisoner, not a hostage.  They also find it ironic that the country whose national anthem she refused to honor (she always remained in the locker room),  she now needs that same country, to defend her………yep, sort of ironic.

Prayers for Joy

Well, if it hasn’t been a bad enough year already for the lovely Joy Behar.  First, the plandemic stalled her trip to Italy.  Then next, the human suffering and carnage in the Ukraine has postponed her trip once again, how infuriating!  Now to add insult to injury, it seems the vivacious Joy is apparently having trouble navigating sitting down.  It seems she fell on her derrière on live TV as she attempted the taxing job of sitting down on a chair.  Co-hosts ran to her aid, saying they all do this, all the time.  Has sitting down become that difficult lately Deano?  Some are even drawing parallels to Joey, when he fell repeatedly trying to walk up a set of airplane steps.  Conservatives are saying: That display, could be the best symbolic image to best describe the first 14 months of this incompetent installed puppets run, as well as his entire political career.

Until Next Time

Well Deano, that’s it for today.  Maybe next time we could address the queen of word salad, the honorable Heels Up Harris.  I understand she will be trekking across the pond again, to straighten things out over there.  That should be a slam dunk, we can rest easy.  I am not sure if Willie Brown will be accompanying her to these strategic sessions, no word from her staff on this.  Maybe, she could ease the mood with one of her lilting, deranged laughs?  I’ll let you get back to “printing the news that’s fit to print,” over at the Old Gray Lady.  You and your staff exude journalistic integrity in every article.  Keep up the great work at your tabloid, your journalism ranks right up there with CNN and the National Inquirer.  Just remember Deano, fraudulent elections have consequences!  Sometimes catastrophe ones!

Sincerely,

Chris Cirino

MORANO: ‘No ban on Russian energy until U.S. lifts sanctions on U.S. energy’

Morano:

“How about this? No ban on Russian oil & gas until the U.S. lifts sanctions against U.S. domestic energy.

Any Congressional bill to ban Russian energy should include lifting of all climate-related sanctions on U.S. homegrown energy! It’s time to stop the sanctions — against American domestic energy!”

Former Obama U.S. Treasury official says quiet part out loud:

‘We don’t want lower prices for fossil-fuel buyers, we prefer higher prices’ to achieve ‘climate change goals’

Former Obama U.S. Treasury official Mark Mazur rejects the call for a gas-tax holiday because it,

“undercuts the administration’s climate change goals — where really to care about fossil-fuel consumption, we don’t want lower prices for fossil-fuel buyers, we prefer higher prices.”

Morano on TV: ‘High energy prices are NOT the unintended consequences of the Green New Deal-style policies, they are the INTENDED consequences’

Climate Depot’s Marc Morano: 

“Skyrocketing energy prices  are exactly what the climate and environmental agenda demands and has demanded for the past 50 plus years. From President Obama to President Biden, higher energy costs have been the plan to soften up Americans and the economy to prepare them for accepting less in order to impose the progressive vision on society.

High energy prices and shortages will condition Americans to accept a ‘new normal’ in energy that is entirely due to following the climate agenda.”

Bloomberg excerpt: “Former U.S. Treasury official Mark Mazur… agreed a gas-tax holiday “undercuts the administration’s climate change goals — where really to care about fossil-fuel consumption, we don’t want lower prices for fossil-fuel buyers, we prefer higher prices.”Sampling of climate activists cheering on higher energy prices: 

‘This is a blessing in disguise’: Climate activists happy! ‘Good riddance Nord Stream 2. Now Europe has a golden opportunity to ‘meet global climate goals to keep our planet livable’

Biden admin admits goal is higher gas prices!? Jen Psaki: ‘The rise in gas prices over the long term makes an even stronger case for doubling down our investment & focus on clean energy options’

Jen Psaki says Biden wants to reduce our dependence on foreign oil by using green energy, not by expanding U.S. energy production

Obama called it in 2008! Get ready for electricity prices to ‘necessarily skyrocket’

‘Put them in jail’: Biden demanded fossil fuel execs be locked up in 2019 & Noam Chomsky: Biden on climate is ‘farther to the left than any Dem candidate in memory’ & Net-Zero = ‘Soviet-style central planning’

‘We gotta leave you in the ground’: Biden Energy Sec Granholm appeared in 2018 video singing about end of gasoline, fossil fuels – ‘Gasoline, gasoline, the world’s aflame’

Flashback 2011: Morano on Fox News on Obama’s energy policies: Sec. Chu said he favored gas prices at level of Europeans…Holdren once said the greatest ‘hazard’ in U.S. faced was cheap energy
Flashback 1975: Obama Science Czar John Holdren warned U.S. ‘threatened’ by ‘the hazards of too much energy’– Flashback 1975: Former Obama Science Czar John Holdren Said Real Threat to USA Is Cheap Energy: ‘The U.S. is threatened far more by the hazards of too much energy, too soon, than by the hazards of too little energy, too late.’John Holdren lamented the masses driving to the store to get beer in 1975! Holdren: “In a society that uses its 5,000-pound automobiles for half-mile round trips to the market to fetch a six-pack of beer, consumes the beer in buildings that are overcooled in summer and overheated in winter, and then throws the aluminum cans away at an energy loss equivalent to a third of a gallon of gasoline per six-pack, this ‘primitive existence’ argument strikes me as the most offensive kind of nonsense.”

Why is Biden energy sec. smiling!? Skyrocketing energy prices are all part of the ‘Green Fraud’ – Welcome Back, (Jimmy) Carter -2021: ‘Maybe Pipeline Terrorists Are Just Environmentalists’ – 2013: ‘We will dismantle the Pipeline…by any means necessary’Why is Biden energy sec. smiling!? Skyrocketing energy prices are all part of the ‘Green Fraud’ – Welcome Back, (Jimmy) Carter

Squad Rep. Rashida Tlaib SOTU response: You’re darned right we should defund the police — and ban even more domestic oil production

Climate activist Mark Lynas: “In Europe clean energy – renewables and nuclear – is now the patriotic choice, to help the continent weather Putin’s storm. Things are moving rapidly in Asia too as fossil fuels prices soar.”Welcome Back, (Jimmy) Carter: ‘Economy was in the tank, inflation was rampant, gas lines were long’ – ‘At least in 1979 we weren’t locked down, masked up, & socially distanced’

2010: NASA scientist James Hansen endorses book which calls for ‘ridding the world of Industrial Civilization’ – Hansen declares author ‘has it right…the system is the problem’ — Book proposes ‘razing cities to the ground, blowing up dams and switching off the greenhouse gas emissions machine’

John Kerry fears Russia-Ukraine war will distract from climate change– Kerry: A Russian invasion of Ukraine will have a “monumental impact on the ability and willingness of people to do what’s necessary” to curb emissions, and it will be “very tough for the climate agenda, there’s no question about it.”

EU climate chief Frans Timmermans: ‘Putin threatens Ukraine because he wants to divert attention from climate problem’

TONE DEAF: Rep. Jayapal, Gas Prices Will Go Up ‘No Matter What We Do’

Saturday on MSNBC’s Cross Connection, Congressional Progressive Caucus Chair and radical leftist Rep. Pramila Jayapal put forth the false argument that we have to transition away from fossil fuels to be “free of the ability of dictators to blackmail us over oil and gas.”

Jayapal said, “[I]f we ever want to be truly free of the ability of dictators to blackmail us over oil and gas, we should be investing right here at home in renewable energy technologies. We should be weaning ourselves off fossil fuels so that this situation that we’re in does not happen again, in terms of feeling like we can’t stop Russian oil and gas imports because it’s going to drive up prices here at home.”

Jayapal neglected to mention the fact that we could achieve self-sufficiency and stop importing Russian oil and gas anytime we wanted if we opened up our own domestic production, which over 70% of Americans want. But the Biden administration doesn’t want that because their true agenda is the bankruptcy of the fossil fuel industry, and the embrace of their Big-Government Green Reset.

“By the way, no matter what we do, prices of gas are going to go up,” Jayapal added. “So, any Republicans who try to say that it’s drill, baby, drill, and that solves the problem, it’s wrong. That is not the case. We are going to see gas prices rise, but it is in service to trying to quell a dictator.”

This is a blatant lie. Gas prices do not go up “no matter what we do,” and the fact that they are going up has nothing to do with the Ukraine crisis. The Democrats want Americans to believe that suffering the economic burdens this administration has willfully imposed upon them is a patriotic duty in the service of defending a fellow liberal democracy from tyranny.

The truth is that it is in the service of Democrats’ lust for power.

21 Known Connections

In an August 9, 2015 editorial lamenting the “centuries of racism” that have plagued America, Jayapal wrote: “As a country, we still have not recognized or acknowledged what we have wrought and continue to inflict on black people. The bigger results are how black kids as young as two are being disciplined differently in their daycares and pre-k classes. That black people are routinely denied jobs that white people get with the same set of experiences and skills. That black people … continue to die at the hands of police, in domestic violence, on the streets. That black mothers must tell their children as young as seven or eight that they have to be careful about what pants or hoodies they wear or to not assert their rights if stopped. That this country supports an institutionalized form of racism called the criminal justice system that makes profit … on jailing black and brown people.” She also suggested that as recompense for historical wrongs, the U.S. government should pay “reparations for slavery” to black people.

America’s Energy Future: Oil, Natural Gas and Nuclear

America’s energy future is not in solar and wind power. Rather our energy needs are best met by oil, natural gas and nuclear power.

Let’s look at the current numbers to see where Americans get their energy from.

Here is a chart showing how much U.S. energy is produced by coal and coal byproducts.

Energy source Billion kWh Share of total
Coal 899 21.8%
Petroleum (total) 19 0.5%
Petroleum liquids 11 0.3%
Petroleum coke 7 0.2%

Here is a chart on how much of our energy is produced by solar and wind.

NOTE: hydropower is classified as a renewable. 1. Take away hydropower and wind and solar only account for 12.5% share. 2. When the sun goes down and the wind stops blowing, solar and wind fail to produce power:

Energy source Billion kWh Share of total
Renewables (total) 792 19.8%
Wind 338 8.4%
Hydropower 291 7.3%
Solar (total) 91 2.3%

 According to U.S. Energy Information Administration 80.9% of our total energy needs are met by oil, natural gas, coal, hydroelectric and nuclear power.

Energy source Billion kWh Share of total
Total – all sources 4,116
Fossil fuels (total) 2,504 60.8%
Natural gas 1,575 38.3%
Coal 899 21.8%
Petroleum (total) 19 0.5%
Petroleum liquids 11 0.3%
Petroleum coke 7 0.2%
Other gases3 11 0.3%
Nuclear 778 18.9%
Renewables (total) 826 20.1%
Wind 380 9.2%
Hydropower 260 6.3%
Solar (total) 115 2.8%
Photovoltaic 112 2.8%
Solar thermal 3 0.1%
Biomass (total) 55 1.3%
Wood 37 0.9%
Landfill gas 10 0.2%
Municipal solid waste (biogenic) 6 0.2%
Other biomass waste 2 0.1%
Geothermal 16 0.4%
Pumped storage hydropower4 -5 -0.1%
Other sources5 12 0.3%

America’s Future is Nuclear

According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) there are, as of December 31, 2020, 94 nuclear reactors operating at 56 nuclear power plants in 28 states. Thirty-two of the plants have two reactors, and three plants have three reactors. Nuclear power plants have supplied about 20% of total annual U.S. electricity since 1990.

America has not built any new nuclear power plants since 1990.

The EIA notes:

The United States generates more nuclear power than any other country

In 2019, 31 countries had commercial nuclear power plants, and in 14 of the countries, nuclear energy supplied at least 20% of their total annual electricity generation. The United States had the largest nuclear electricity generation capacity and generated more nuclear electricity than any other country. France, with the second-largest nuclear electricity generation capacity and second-highest nuclear electricity generation, had the largest share—about 70%—of total annual electricity generation from nuclear energy.

Nuclear energy is clean, efficient and reliable. It is also carbon free.

If America, like France, made the wise decision to begin building nuclear power plants to meet 100% of our power we would need to build an additional 500, plus or minus, nuclear power plants.

This national initiative would allow the United States to then use its oil and natural gas resources to fuel our cars, SUVs, trucks, trains, airplanes and other gasoline and diesel driven equipment, such as generators, and become energy independent.

We could also export all of our coal for use by other nations to meet their energy needs.

American consumers will continue to buy new and used vehicles powered by internal combustion engines. Thus we as a nation must maintain and expand our ability to produce our own oil via on and off-shore drilling and fracking.

As more consumers go to all electric vehicles (EVs) and the charging stations needed to keep them running, whether in the home or on the road, the strain on our electric grid will increase.

We need more, not less, cheap and reliable power to fuel our economy, our communities and our nation.

Not to provide cheap and reliable power will lead to what we are seeing now, war in Ukraine.

The Bottom Line

America’s power lies in its ability to provide power to the engines of our current and future economic growth.

Starving America of power, makes America powerless. Starving our citizens of cheap and reliable power is a direct threat to our fiscal and national security.

To be powerful America needs powerful sources of energy. Nuclear, oil (for gasoline, diesel and aviation fuels) and natural gas are the best and most accessible means to energy independence.

Energy independence translates into life, liberty and the pursuit of our collective happiness.

Without cheap and reliable power sources the lights in that city on the hill will most certainly go out – for everyone.

Powerup America.

VIDEO: Biden’s Handlers Won’t Open Domestic Production, May Buy Iranian Oil

“Tell me you hate America, without telling me you hate America.”


The Biden administration is still fighting congressional efforts to stop the importation of Iranian oil. In a surreal exercise, Biden expects the rest of the world to sanction Russia even as we keep buying Russian energy products. And if that’s not enough, the former Mayor of South Bend is down with Iranian oil.

Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg said Wednesday that “all options are on the table” during a discussion about oil prices after MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle asked if President Biden would consider “working something out with Iran.”

Do all options also include the 25th Amendment?

Biden will get oil anywhere and from any of our enemies… just not from Americans.

While Biden gives meaningless quotes about Russia and Ukraine, the Russians are negotiating an even worse version of the Iran Deal that Biden is expected to sign on to.

The Russians may be getting kicked out of the Paralympics and the cat shows, but Putin is still in the driver’s seat at the White House

The rest of it, the hollow saber-rattling, the sanctions, and the propaganda are a show. The reality can be seen quickly enough if you follow the power and the money.

Russian Collusion Exposed: Russia Funded Environmental Groups to Oppose Fracking in Europe and U.S.

From 2018 Congressional Report: 

A Republican staff report by the Senate suggests that Russian funds have been funneled through off-shore corporations and passed on to U.S.- based environmental activist organizations with the intent to effect political change.

[ … ]

In January 2017, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence issued a report stating there is “clear evidence that the Kremlin is financing and choreographing anti-fracking propaganda in the United States.”

[ … ]

Hillary Clinton in 2014 said: ‘We [the State Department and the U.S.] were up against Russia pushing oligarchs and others to buy media. We were even up against phony environmental groups, and I’m a big environmentalist, but these were funded by the Russians to stand against any effort, ‘Oh that pipeline, that fracking, that whatever will be a problem for you,’ and a lot of the money supporting that message was coming from Russia.’

2018: CFACT & Climate Depot’s billboard went up: — ‘Russia funneled Green groups millions of dollars to oppose fracking & cripple American energy. – How’s that for COLLUSION?’

2018 CFACT report: Russian efforts to disrupt U.S. energy markets exposed – By Bonner Cohen, Ph. D.

2018: CFACT report: Real Russian collusion the MSM ignores– By Paul Driessen

March 2022: Michael Shellenberger: “15 years ago Europe exported more natural gas than Russia does today. Now, Russia exports 3x more gas than Europe produces. Why? Because climate activists, partly funded by Russia, blocked fracking.” 

The Russia “collusion” no one seems to want to remember. Here are excerpts from a 2-18 U.S. Congressional report from the Committee on Science, Space and Technology. It details how Russian

From March 1, 2018 U.S. Congress Report: United States House of Representatives – Committee on Science, Space, and Technology – Russian Attempts to Influence U.S. Domestic Energy Markets by Exploiting Social Media Majority Report

Excerpt from 2018 Congressional Report: Fracking Threatens the Kremlin’s Agenda

Republicans and Democrats agree the Kremlin is manipulating environmental groups in an attempt to carry out their agenda

The Kremlin has a motive to disrupt U.S. energy markets and influence domestic energy policy, since American energy represents a direct threat to Russian energy interests. Russia’s efforts to influence U.S. energy policy are well documented in the public domain. U.S. presidential candidates, European officials, and the U.S. intelligence community have all publicly noted that Russia and its government corporations are funding a covert anti-fracking campaign to suppress the widespread adoption of fracking in Europe and the U.S., all in an effort to protect the influence of the Russian oil and gas sector.22

The substantial increase in domestic production has resulted in an abundant supply of American energy, which is increasingly making its way into the global marketplace. While this stands to provide substantial economic benefits to the U.S., it simultaneously represents a direct threat to Russian energy interests. First, an abundance of American supply in the global energy marketplace stands to reduce Russian market share and thus revenues generated from oil and gas activities. Second, by providing supply alternatives for European countries dependent on Russian supply and infrastructure, American energy stands to disrupt the Kremlin’s ability to leverage energy consumption for geopolitical influence.

Russia provides roughly 75 percent of the natural gas imported by countries in Central and Eastern Europe while the countries in Southeast Europe “receive almost all of their natural gas from Russia.” 17 “Russia’s Gazprom has acknowledged for the first time a threat to its dominant position in European gas market from an expected influx of liquefied natural gas (LNG) produced in the United States under [the Trump] administration.” 18 Shortly after this acknowledgment, U.S. LNG made its way to Poland 19 and Lithuania. 20 In fact, Poland recently signed a five-year deal with the United States to import liquefied natural gas into the country in an attempt to decrease dependency on Russian energy supplies. 21 …

As the threat of American energy continues to grow, so does the Kremlin’s incentive to influence energy operations in Europe and the United States. Moreover, as they have demonstrated, the Kremlin will use any and all tools at their disposal to preserve Russia’s dominant energy status and to maintain its stranglehold over Eastern and Central Europe. …

Former Secretary of State and then-presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, with access to intelligence reports, made a private speech in 2014, according to documents from WikiLeaks, which included statements about the struggles of dealing with Russian-backed environmental groups. According to a media report, Secretary Clinton said the following: “We [the State Department and the U.S.] were up against Russia pushing oligarchs and others to buy media.
We were even up against phony environmental groups, and I’m a big environmentalist, but these were funded by the Russians to stand against any effort, ‘Oh that pipeline, that fracking, that whatever will be a problem for you,’ and a lot of the money supporting that message was coming from Russia.”24 …

In January 2017, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence released a report that contained “clear evidence that the Kremlin is financing and choreographing anti-fracking propaganda in the United States.” 25 The report found that the Russian-sponsored news agency RT (formerly Russian Today) “r[an] anti-fracking programing, highlighting environmental issues and the impacts on public health,” which “is likely reflective of the Russian Government’s concern about the impact of fracking and the U.S. natural gas production on the global energy market and the potential challenges to [Russian energy companies’] profitability,” such as state- controlled Russian energy giant Gazprom.26 …

A Republican staff report by the Senate suggests that Russian funds have been funneled through off-shore corporations and passed on to U.S.- based environmental activist organizations with the intent to effect political change. 27 …

More recently Senator Ben Cardin released a voluminous report on Russian manipulation of the media over decades. Specific to oil and gas, the Cardin report cited a “study by the Wilfried Martens Centre for European Studies [which] reports that the Russian government has invested $95 million in NGOs that seek to persuade EU governments to end shale gas exploration,” which illustrates how American energy directly clashes with the Russian energy agenda.28 Senator Cardin’s work reiterates that “according to NATO officials, Russian intelligence agencies also reportedly provide covert support to European environmental groups to campaign against fracking for natural gas, thereby keeping the EU more dependent on Russian supplies.”29

Additionally, as further evidence of Russian attempts to spread propaganda in the United States, U.S. Department of Justice officials have demanded that the U.S. based affiliate of RT register as a foreign agent under the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA).30 FARA requires that agents representing the interests of foreign governments in any political or quasi-political capacity disclose public communications aimed at influencing American political debate or public policy.31 Through local programs all over the world, RT and other news agencies operate as a government-funded arm of Russia in its attempts to destabilize and disrupt democratic institutions and the free market. Under FARA, the American people have the right to evaluate the “statements and activities of [persons acting as foreign agents] in light of their function as foreign agents.”32

To that end, the Kremlin is attempting to make, as Senator Cardin’s report states, “useful idiots” of unwitting environmental groups and activists in furtherance of its energy influence operations.33

Driessen Excerpt: The US Senate “Billionaires’ Club” and Environmental Policy Alliance “From Russia with Love” reports, articles by investigative journalists like Ron Arnold and Lachlan Markay (here and here), studies by the US National Intelligence Director and Iowa State University, and a March 2018 report by the US House Science Committee reveal money laundering by Putin cronies and ongoing propaganda efforts by Russian media groups to undermine American drilling, fracking, pipeline and agricultural programs. … Hefty portions of Klein funds come from Russia: Rosneft, the Russian-government-owned oil and gas giant that is one of Wakefield’s largest clients; Spectrum Partners, a Moscow-based energy investment firm with major assets in Russian oil and gas; the IPOC Group, an international growth fund owned by Russian minister of telecommunications and Putin friend Leonid Reiman; and other Russian companies. (Other Sea Change donors include the Gates Foundation, eBay’s Omidyar Network Fund, David Rockefeller’s personal foundation, the Walmart Foundation and the extended Simons family.)

The Science Committee Report explains how the Russian government funnel money through surrogates to US environmentalist organizations to fund attacks on the fossil fuels industry. It also reveals how Russian operatives create and spread propaganda on US social media platforms, to manipulate American opinions about pipelines, fossil fuels, fracking and climate change.

Standing up to Putin means ditching Net-Zero (& Green New Deal) – ‘The West can’t win a geopolitical conflict…with an economy powered intermittently by wind & solar’

Rupert Darwall: In late 2019, Boris Johnson banned commercial fracking. Earlier this month, the British government ordered that concrete be poured into the country’s two exploratory shale wells and for them to be abandoned. The move was blasted by Cuadrilla Resources CEO Francis Egan, who pointed out that the Bowland shale formation could supply 50 years of current U.K. gas demand. … Germany’s and the EU’s net-zero policies will deepen their dependence on Putin’s goodwill as they increase their exposure to unreliable wind and solar, phase out coal, and – in the case of Germany and Belgium – prematurely close their nuclear power stations. Strategically, that’s a win for Putin.

Defeat Tyrants With Energy Independence

UPDATE: Candidate for the U.S. Senate Carla Sands, “Make America Energy Dominant Again.” Former U.S. Ambassador and current Pennsylvania candidate in Pennsylvania Carla Sands calls for strong America first leaders to rise up and take back the country from the radical left.


They said it couldn’t be done.  Then we did it.

Energy independence!

Then Biden yanked away what generations had worked for in the blink of an eye.

Put that together with Biden’s provocative weakness in Afghanistan and now Ukrainians are paying the price in blood.  Will Taiwan be next?  Then who?

I addressed these issues and more in a talk I gave in Virginia.

“Efforts to go net zero have diminished the ability of nations to provide sufficient energy to meet demand,” I explained, “and this gives tyrants like Vladimir Putin an opportunity to provide that energy in the form of natural gas and rake in millions to fund his war machine.”

If you watched President Biden’s State of the Union Address you received no sign that Biden will wake up and value American energy independence above catering to his left-wing base.

Marc Morano took Biden to task on Fox and Friends explaining.  “Russian oil imports are at an 11 year high. We’re importing 600,000 barrels a day from Russia. And Russia’s federal budget is 40% based upon oil and gas revenue.”

Environmentalist Michael Shellenberger was very clear.  We shared his tweet with CFACT’s Facebook friends.   “Russia produces 3X more gas than Europe produces.  Why?  Because climate activists, partly funded by Russia, blocked fracking.”

It’s not just hydrocarbons.  Wind and solar, as inefficient and intermittent as they may be, are WHOLLY DEPENDENT on rare earth elements and manufacturing from China and metals from Russia!

This is no accident.   China and Russia played the useful idiot Left like a drum, stifled domestic mining, drilling and manufacturing and got us hooked on supplies from the worst nations on Earth.

Anyone who thinks importing resources from China and Russia instead of producing them at home, and that by doing this it will somehow lower the temperature of the globe, is too clueless to lead.

Energy independence now!  We must settle for nothing less.

Which is better a Street Legal Golf Cart or All Electric Vehicle?

I was born and raised on internal combustion engine vehicles. Back in my time we had muscle cars like the Chevy Corvette and Ford Mustang.

America became a major manufacturer of internal combustion engine cars after Ransom Old developed the assembly line and began mass producing cars. The assembly line has long been considered one of the greatest innovations of the 20th century. Henry Ford improved and innovated upon Ransom Old’s assembly line to make Detroit into the Motor City, the automobile manufacturing capital of the world.

According to GreenCars.com:

The invention of what we now refer to as an electric vehicle (EV) has to go to Scottish inventor Robert Anderson who made a full-size prototype electric “horseless carriage” in 1838. However, Anderson’s creation was more of an experiment than a practical conveyance since his carriage used batteries that were not rechargeable.

You may be amazed to know that electric vehicles have been with us since well before the gasoline-powered internal combustion engine became popular. In fact, several inventors around the world were playing with the idea of putting a battery-powered electric motor in a conveyance with wheels since around 1828 when Anyos Jedlik made an electric toy car.

The first all electric vehicle was invented in 1864. It was the Hague Tramway Network which had 12 different tram lines and two light rail lines.

Fast forward to 2022 and we find a plethora of all electric vehicles, almost all cars or SUVs, made by companies like Tesla, Chevrolet, Ford, Mercedes Benz and others.

We also have hundreds of brands, makes and models of internal combustion engine cars, trucks, tractors, airplanes, lawn mowers, factory machines and other forms of fossil fuel driven equipment like generators, to power you home when the electricity goes out.

QUESTION: Should you purchase a street legal golf cart or an all electric vehicle?

Golf Cart or All Electric Vehicle

We looked at two manufacturers of electric vehicles. Moto Electric Vehicles a company that manufactures street legal golf carts. Their carts include: street legal golf carts, low speed vehicles, electric shuttles, wheel chair electric shuttles, commercial electric vehicles, electric emergency vehicles, golf carts and lifted off road golf carts.

We chose the Lucid Air all electric sedan because it was Motor Trends 2022 car of the year. Motor Trend ended their column about the Lucid Air stating:

The Lucid Air did not instantly win all of our judges hearts. Many expressed dire concern that if Lucid fails to rectify the wonky quirks our prototype suffered, the brand and car could go down in history as the 21st century Tucker or Chevy Vega. Some longtime judges assuaged these fears by highlighting the many similarities between this car and company and the Tesla we awarded [car of the year] in 2013. In the long run, electric vehicles are the way forward for cars and mobility, and the way forward for electric vehicles is continuous improvement of batteries, motors, and charging. That’s why the great-looking, strong performing, tech-leapfrogging Lucid Air is Motor Trend’s 2022 Car of the Year.

What’s the difference between a golf cart and an all electric vehicle? Essentially nothing. As Motor Trend pointed out it’s down to three things: batteries, motors, and charging.

Both Motor Electrics’ golf carts and the Lucid Air are all electric, both have a single gear transmission and both have rechargeable batteries. Both provide transportation for individuals, and up to 6 passengers in the case of golf carts. All EVs can hold up to 5 passengers.

The only differences are in luxury and pricing.

So there you have it. EVs are nothing more than expensive golf carts.

Who Should Choose What Vehicle You Drive?

Now that you know that EVs are simply more luxurious and more expensive golf carts the question is: Who should decide what vehicle you drive?

For Democrats it must be the government. Democrats want to save the planet by making you drive only electric vehicles because normally aspirated vehicles emit CO2. But isn’t CO2 plant food and doesn’t CO2 make the planet greener? Of course it does.

QUESTION: If CO2 is good for the plants and our planet why this push for all electric vehicles?

ANSWER: It’s all about power and control!

You see what car you drive should be a personal decision. The open market should decide which vehicles win and which vehicles lose customers.

It is not the government’s job to force you to drive an EV. In fact, it’s un-Constitutional. Show me in the Constitution where the government can force me to buy EVs and only EVs.

What the Constitution does require is we as American citizens have an unalienable right to life, liberty and the pursuit of our individual happiness.

Having said that my wife will continue to drive her Lexus and I will continue to ride my Honda motorcycle.

And this ends the discussion on golf carts and liberty.

The War in Ukraine Shows a Dark Side of Environmentalism

Europe’s dependence on natural gas mutes its objections to Russia’s invasion.


“Save the planet!” Ah, what a wonderful phrase. To quote an adorable little Swedish girl, “how dare you” even think otherwise? Well, pace Greta, dare we must. Garry Kasparov recently hit the nail on its head, when he tweeted, “You can’t save the planet if you don’t save people on it.”

Is Kasparov a stooge of evil oil corporations? No. He is a chess grandmaster, who over the years has issued warnings about Russia’s expansionism. And he clearly sees what environmentalists don’t: when you become overzealous in trying to save the planet, you forget about people living in nations invaded by tyrants of resource-rich countries.

The road to hell is paved with good intentions, and the war in Ukraine is proving it.

Putin’s decision to invade Ukraine is multicausal. But surely, he must have known all too well that Germany— and the European Union at large— would be hesitant about succoring Ukraine. Germany’s leadership may pay lip service to the defense of an invaded country, but when push comes to shove, military aid has been very limited. The motive for this apathy comes down to two words: natural gas.

Germany’s Green Party is a political force to be reckoned with, and their influence has been felt in the country’s decision to cut down on nuclear power. This trend has expanded to other nations in the developed world, not only regarding to nuclear power, but fossil fuels as well. Giving in to environmentalist pressure, US President Joe Biden has cancelled the Yellowstone pipeline, as he has claimed that “climate change is the biggest threat facing America.” As alternatives, renewable sources are proposed by environmentalists. But so far, they have been an utter failure; there simply is no comparison between a solar panel (useless on cloudy days) and a nuclear plant.

Developed countries may try to shut down sources of energy all they want, but their populations will not change their consumption habits any time soon. So how do their governments meet the energy demand? By getting it from nations who are not willing to cut down on energy production. In so doing, politicians from developed countries play feel-good politics and applaud Greta when she delivers her (scripted) speeches, while still making sure that their constituents have gas for their cars and homes are heated in the winter.

They of course fail to notice that their woke virtue-signaling act empowers tyrants like Putin. Does the Russian strongman care about the environment? Of course not. In fact, if he has to severely repress environmentalists, he will. And with his gas provision to Europe, Putin has now become unrestrained in his imperial designs, as he knows very well that his European clients will not interfere in his military adventures.

Soon after the invasion of Ukraine began, Russian forces seized control of the Chernobyl plant. Environmentalists are now worried, because they do not trust the Russians to adequately control the radiation emanating from there. But this is an outcome of environmentalists’ own doing. Nuclear power per se is not the danger. The danger is corrupt governments that develop (or seize) nuclear plants, and in their lack of transparency, do not enforce adequate safety protocols. These corrupt governments have been strengthened by environmentalists’ naivetéall along.

So, will we save the planet? Of course we will. But we must do so intelligently. Climate change is not a myth. But measures to cool down global warming must be taken with a proper cost/benefit analysis. For the time being, renewables’ cost is too high, and their benefits are too low. The war in Ukraine is now showing that there is an additional political cost that few people considered in the first place. Environmentalism has a dark side, and we should learn the lesson.

Acid Fish Latest Greenpanicking Scare

Acid rain – remember that one? Alar – remember that one?  The earth is cooling – remember that one?  No reason you should.  They were all nonsense.  More recent green scares also turned to be nonsense, or less there than meets the eye – polar bear extinction, sea level rise, and disappearing coral reefs.  These scares keep happening because the climate change-industrial complex and other radical environmental Leftists think it’s perfectly fine to lie to you and scare you to death if it allows them to remake the world in their image and gets them to where they want to go.  They themselves will be the first to tell you they are liars – strategic liars – as I mentioned yesterday.  And you can add explicit admissions by Al Gore and Tim Wirth to the same effect, to the strategic lying I pointed out yesterday.

Now comes the latest adventure in greenpanicking – acid fish.  The greenies are warning acidification of the oceans will decimate fish populations because acidification makes fish less inclined to evade predators. It’s all hogwash. A review of 91 studies found the higher the quality of the study, the lower the effect acidification has on fish.  The most alarming results the greenies trumpet came from low-quality studies with small sample sizes that are completely unreliable. Overall, the review found, “ocean acidification has a negligible direct impact on fish behavior.”  This is exactly what I was telling you yesterday about hundreds of scientists criticizing the climate change crowd for lack of scientific integrity.  Here it is again.

Unscrupulous liars – these are you heroes.  The computer models they use to predict climate change are so bad they can’t even reproduce temperature changes in the 20th century.  So why would you believe anybody who claims their computer model can tell you what the temperature will be a hundred years from now?  You’re a fool if you do.

They also withhold important information from you.  They like to talk about how they’re saving the planet, but they never talk about what their policies would really do, as I mentioned yesterday.  They never talk about the bad stuff.   The regulations Biden wants would “keep 11 million more people in poverty come 2030 than otherwise would be.” And if “the Glasgow climate conference … leads to the adoption of much stronger climate measures, policy makers will raise that total to 80 million additional people in poverty by 2030.”  They WANT you to use less energy.  They WANT you to be poor, and they’ll ride any horse that will get them there. Could it be any clearer?

Speaking of withholding information, New York is doing its best to cover up the true cost of its climate legislation which mandates “Net Zero” emissions by 2050.  The legislation requires public officials to make the total costs and benefits public, but they haven’t done it.  As the U.K. found out recently, the costs are so high, any benefits are completely overwhelmed and green policies are doing real damage, far more than any damage arising from supposed climate change.  But the greenies don’t care.

They go right on telling you to eat bugs and cuddle with your pets to stay warm in the freezing winter and there isn’t enough heat.  Too bad if the elevators stop working in your building and you’re elderly.  Too bad if your electric bill goes up 30 percent like in Europe and you can’t afford other necessities because of green policies.  When are you going to get it through your thick skull the greenies don’t care about people and might actually be trying to hurt them.  The greenies certainly don’t care about YOU.  They only care about their fake religion of climate change.  Like John Kerry just said: Russia started a war and Ukrainians are dying?  So what, as long as it doesn’t stop the fight against climate change.  Talk about a one-track mind.  What a heartless narrow-minded moron.

The wheels are falling off the phony climate change narrative, but the Biden administration is holding on for dear life.  It just held a roundtable on how to fight climate change deniers like me.  Participants discussed their opponents’ arguments for delaying climate action and dreamed up ways to counter them.  Pravda is gearing up to tell you how to think.  According to the delusional fools in the White House, climate denialism only exists because “special interests” have been “sowing doubts” and speaking heresy.

Special interests?  OK, let’s talk about special interests.  Green groups like the Sierra Club, the Natural Resources Defense Council, and the Climate Action Network have received millions of dollars ultimately traced back to Russia to undermine fossil fuels and push green energy.  Ca-ching, ca-ching!  Russia is obviously trying to shut down U.S. energy to promote dependence on Russian oil & gas.

Some heroes you got there. They lie, they cheat, they fear-monger, and they cuddle up with the Russians to stay fed. Their financial patron thinks nothing of invading other countries, and THEY think nothing of tormenting and even killing the rest of us. If you’re a climate change true believer, you’ve got some agonizing reappraisal to do.

U.N.’s New Climate Change Report Underwhelms

The U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is out with another report, this one declaring:

“Climate change is a threat to human well-being and planetary health. Any further delay in concerted anticipatory global action on adaptation and mitigation will miss a brief and rapidly closing window of opportunity to secure a livable and sustainable future for all.”

There are several reasons not to take the new report at face value.

First, the IPCC does not have a good track record when it comes to credibility.  A group of 900 scientists, engineers, and scholars examined a recent IPCC report and found it failed to meet objective standards of scientific integrity.  Moreover, an author of earlier IPCC reports was quoted as saying,

“We need to get some broad based support, to capture the public’s imagination… So we have to offer up scary scenarios, make simplified, dramatic statements and make little mention of any doubts….”

Scary scenarios, huh?  There’s no shortage of those in the new IPCC report – plagues, mental health problems, species going extinct, oh no!  Also, more frequent and intense extreme weather events are a product of human-induced climate change, the report declares (at p. 7-8).

There are plenty of people who dispute that climate change – human-induced, if there is such a thing – causes extreme weather.  Hurricanes are no more frequent than they were a hundred years ago, as of 2013.  Data from the IPCC and NOAA – the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration – also show tornadoes, droughts, and floods have not increased, either.  The new IPCC report also refers to sea level rise but, there as well, the U.N.’s record is not good.  In 1989, a senior U.N. environmental official claimed, “entire nations could be wiped off the face of the Earth by rising sea levels if the global warming trend is not reversed by the year 2000.” Well, that didn’t happen and the data still do not support doomsday predictions of sea level rise from climate change.  The same goes for the supposed imminent demise of coral reefs, to which the report also refers.  A recent study supposedly documenting that demise itself said coral reefs rebounded in 2019.  Too bad they can’t think they’re way out of a paper bag.

So the second reason not to take the new IPCC report at face value is that it’s full of stuff that is disputed or just wrong.  The third reason is the hidden agenda.  You can’t quite tell what the report is talking about in its recommendations to policymakers.  It’s full of phrases like “key systems transitions”, “low regrets options”, and “inclusive governance”, whatever that means.   It all centers on something the report calls “Climate Resilient Development”.   They won’t spell out what they really mean, but they do use the language of the Left – “equity”, “climate justice” – so we can guess.  Actually, we don’t have to guess.  One of the authors told the BBC addressing climate change has to do with making changes in education, healthcare, poverty, and inequality.    Beats me how changing what goes on in the classroom or transferring money from one wallet to another keeps the planet from burning up, but I can tell you what the IPCC global warming crowd really wants:  Every American will have to cut their energy use by 90 percent.  Energy use will have to fall by half, the world over.  The climate crackpots also want to limit your travel, only let you have 16 gallons of gas a year, cut your food consumption by almost a third, and allow you to buy only 9 pounds of clothing annually.   Ready for that?  No wonder this crowd has to hide what it’s really talking about under layers of generalized gobbledygook and Leftist platitudes.  ‘We must rise to higher and higher platitudes, together,’ as Chicago’s famous Mayor Daley used to say.

So much for the IPCC’s new report. Tomorrow, I’ll go through some recent news stories and show you that, despite the ever-more shrill pronouncements life on the planet as we know it will soon cease to exist, the wheels are actually falling off the entire phony climate change narrative, no matter how big the paychecks at the U.N. get.

VIDEO: The West’s Energy Policy Is the Greatest National Security Threat We Face

Watch my interview with Tucker Carlson on Ukraine, Russia and how Biden’s policies aided Russia: ‘The West’s Energy Policy Is the Greatest National Security Threat We Face

EXCERPT:

Tucker Carlson: “So we wanted to walk you some of the likely consequences of what they are now doing in Eastern Europe and Marc Morano seemed like a good man to start with. Thanks so much for joining us tonight. So, without even getting into whether or not Ukraine is a democracy – I’m embarrassed to even – I mean, who cares. But I want to know what the effect on the United States and on the purchasing power of the average person, is likely to be from what they’re doing right now over there.

MORANO: “We are already seeing – the first part of it is in California, $6 a gallon. Gas is already up a dollar. Estimates are seven, $8 a gallon possible with recession if Putin, who we’ve given all of this power to by literally shutting down U.S. domestic energy.

Just a little history lesson here. In 2020, the United States was back to 1952 with energy, not just independence, but energy dominance. We were the world’s largest oil and gas producer. More energy exports and imports, more energy production than consumption and we hadn’t done that since Harry Truman was president. Joe Biden came in at he said the first thing he wanted to do was jail fossil fuel executives. Biden’s energy secretary had done a video singing about no more gasoline, The is world aflame due to global warming.

Biden – by the way – Biden – I’m sorry, Obama’s energy secretary (Chu) said he wanted European-style gas prices. So what happened as he started shutting down the Keystone pipelinebanning drilling on federal lands and Anwar, and defunding energy projects through banks through environmental social governance (ESG). All sorts of things.

So a war on fossil fuels happens. We are now in a much, much weaker position one year into this administration to where now Vladimir Putin is the direct beneficiary of all this. And you can’t keep Europe out of this. Europe is many years ahead of their version of a disastrous Green New Deal. One professor in Europe actually said it’s typical Marxist garbage — what they’ve engaged in. Europe began shutting down their energy, so the whole world has been empowering basically three places. The Middle East for the OPECChina, and now of course Vladimir Putin’s Russia.

So the people that are screaming the loudest that we need to go in and save democracy in Ukraine have destroyed our energy independence and dominance and made us so much more vulnerable to whatever Vladimir Putin may or may not want to do.”

Tucker Carlson: If you’re making energy more important for your own people, you are these we hate your own people. I think it’s that simple. In one sentence just if you could answer this question, is the Chinese government, which clearly has no respect for human rights or even its own people, are they making energy more expensive for Chinese?

Morano: No, there are estimates they build about a coal plant a week, they are about 50% of the world’s coal production. They laugh at all of these restrictions, but they were supplying most of our solar panels.

Tucker Carlson: Exactly!

Morano: But here’s the thing. They are not going to learn. Academia has been calling these energy restrictions for decades. This energy policy, what have they done? “the Washington Post” a few months ago actually said that we – if Jimmy Carter had won a second term there would be no climate crisis. They lamented that Ronald Reagan won. To the academia and media elites, Jimmy Carter’s first term was a model, and that’s what they want to do and that’s what we’re facing here.

John Kerry wants to have an urgent climate summit. He announced on Monday. In the midst of all of this, he believes the climate is the greatest threat. Their energy policy is the greatest national security threat we face.

Tucker Carlson: Perfect. Marc, great to see you. Thank you.

Morano: Appreciate it.

How a Mindless Climate War on Energy Surrendered Ukraine

The Biden Administration gutted America’s energy sector to appease it’s radical climate czar John Kerry. They actually gifted America’s energy industry to Russia, because of John Kerry’s hatred of fossil fuels. This disastrous decision has financed Russia’s aggression against Ukraine. John Kerry is a total wrecking ball.

The Geller Report predicted that John Kerry would cause significant damage (here, herehere) as the Biden Administration’s climate czar. As Secretary of State, John Kerry’s stupidity, recklessness, and lies had a profound role in destabilizing the Middle East. Today, as climate czar, John Kerry is destabilizing the world.

How a Mindless Climate War on Energy Surrendered Ukraine

By Newsmax, February 26, 2022

Delusional Western nation anti-hydrocarbon energy policies premised upon combating climate change as the “greatest existential threat” are being exploited by far more immediate and formidable adversaries.

We are currently witnessing tragic consequences play out in failures of Russian oil and gas-dependent NATO allies — Germany in particular — to dissuade and counter savage Putin aggression against Ukraine.

Add to this, a concurrent Biden administration policy disaster which has simultaneously terminated U.S. energy independence while also depleting export capacities to reduce E.U. dependence on those Russian supplies.

Germany, a dominant E.U. economic power and notable NATO skinflint (only 1.5% GDP for military) depends on Russia for over half of its natural gas and a quarter of its oil imports.

Let’s all be reminded that NATO was created in 1949 by the U.S., Canada, and several E.U. countries expressly for this very reason: to provide collective security against then-Soviet Union expansionism following the Second World War.

Whereas America has no treaty obligation nor popular desire to engage our troops in a non-NATO member Ukraine war, let’s nevertheless also recall a 1994 commitment called the Budapest Memorandum in which the U.S., Great Britain and Russia guaranteed Ukraine security protections in exchange for a very big military concession.

The memo begins by noting that Ukraine had committed “to eliminate all nuclear weapons from its territory within a specified period of time.”

That stockpile included some 1,800 nuclear devices, all of which were returned to Russia by 1996.

Those signatories — Russia included — “reaffirm[ed] their obligation to refrain from the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of Ukraine;” “pledged to “refrain from economic coercion” against Ukraine; and agreed to “seek immediate United Nations Security Council action to provide assistance to Ukraine” in the event of an “act of aggression” against the country.

With converging and compounding consequences, U.N.-promoted climate alarmism over fossil burning energy greenhouse gas emissions inexplicably prompted a plan hatched about 20 years ago by then-German Chancellor Gerhard Schröder to also phase out non-carbon emission nuclear energy over three decades.

American Solar Factory to Close After Joe Biden Guts U.S. Tariffs on China

Biden continues to reward our mortal enemies while punishing the American people. #stolenelection

As one commenter pointedly exclaimed, “….in Jan. 2021 when the fraud Democrat regime shut down the Keystone pipeline, gutted US energy production, and put thousand of people out of work. John “F-n” Kerry swaggered to a microphone, sneered, and told the fired workers “You have better options now!”

They then told all the destitute energy workers that they should get jobs at the “Solar Panel Technician Factory” or some such nonsense. Well, Lefties – where are all those “Solar Panel Technician Jobs” now?

Alabama Solar Factory to Close After Joe Biden Guts U.S. Tariffs on China

By: John  Binder, Breitbart, February 23, 2022:

Huntsville, Alabama, solar panel factory will close after President Joe Biden exempted foreign-made bifacial solar panels from United States tariffs earlier this month.

LG Electronics, a South Korea-based company, announced that it will be closing its Huntsville solar panel manufacturing operation, resulting in the layoffs of about 160 American employees and another 60 Americans who are employed as contract workers.

Executives said they hope to retain as many employees as they can by transitioning them into the company’s other business and manufacturing sectors at its Huntsville campus. Laid-off employees will receive severance packages.

The announcement comes just weeks after Biden decided to exempt foreign-made bifacial solar panels — the overwhelming majority of which come from China — from Section 201 tariffs on solar imports to the United States that were first imposed by former President Trump in January 2018 at a 30 percent rate.

The Coalition for a Prosperous America (CPA) had warned that Biden’s gutting U.S. tariffs on China-made bifacial solar panels would have a devastating impact on America’s solar manufacturing sector.

“China sympathizers may believe that gutting the 201 solar tariffs would not affect the U.S. solar manufacturing industry as long as Congress supports domestic producers. This is flat-out wrong,” CPA Chairman Zach Mottl said in a statement:

Without trade remedies to level the playing field for U.S. solar manufacturers that are competing against heavily subsidized Chinese companies, it won’t matter if Congress passes a domestic tax credit for American producers. [Emphasis added]

Shortly after Trump imposed the U.S. tariffs on solar imports, LG Electronics announced that they would expand their Huntsville campus to include manufacturing solar panels — a boon for the city’s local economy as every one factory job supports an additional 7.4 jobs.

In November, as Breitbart News reported, Biden’s Commerce Department sided with Chinese solar manufacturers who produce their products in Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam by denying a request from American solar manufacturers to investigate U.S. tariff evasion.

Biden had been lobbied by 12 Senate Democrats who sent a letter asking the administration not to impose any tariffs on the products made in Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam by the Chinese solar manufacturers.

From 2001 to 2018, U.S. free trade with China has cost Alabama at least 50,700 jobs or about 2.5 percent of the state’s employment. A previous study found that permanent 25 percent tariffs on China-made products imported to the U.S. market would create a million American jobs in five years.
