Wind/solar mandates are a costly fail, reports UChicago study

From my cold dead lips…

I was refused a straw last week at a Washington, DC restaurant last week. Apparently (who knew?) straws were banned on January 1 and restaurants have until July 1 to comply with the irrational dictate. I just ordered “soda shop style” plastic straws from Amazon. The law says restaurants can’t provide plastic straws. It doesn’t say I can’t bring my own. Who would ever have though straws would become a front in the struggle for liberty?

As per my 2009 Amazon.com best seller, “Green Hell: How Environmentalists Plan to Control Your Life and What You Can Do to Stop Them” (Regnery, 2009). there is no part of your life that the totalitarian greens don’t want to own and operate.

GOP Congressman Matt Gaetz goes Al Gore; JunkScience challenges Gaetz to debate

In an effort to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory following the unanimous Senate defeat of the Green New Deal last week, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) is introducing an alternative bill to the Green New Deal, called the Green Real Deal. In a commentary published today, Gaetz channels Al Gore and Gore’s “The debate is over” claim, writing: “The reality of climate change is a stupid thing to argue about.” JunkScience was the first to challenge Al Gore to debate in January 2006. Let us be the first to challenge Gaetz on his foolishness. Let’s go at it, Congressman. If debating climate is so “stupid,” it should be a lay-up to waste me.
