Hawaii Governor Says Climate Change 'Amplified'
Devastating Fires
Posted By: Hazymac, 8/22/2023 6:40:54 AM
Hawaii Democrat Governor Josh Green took to “Face the Nation” Sunday to agree with host Margaret Brennan’s assertion that climate change “amplified” Maui’s horrific wildfires. However, there were multiple failures on many fronts by authorities, including warning sirens that didn’t go off, delays of much-needed water because of “equity concerns,” negligence by a power company, and disaster officials who had no experience in emergency management. Green: "GOVERNOR JOSH GREEN: So it's usually tsunamis and hurricanes [that are a danger to Hawaii]. For perspective, we've had six fire emergencies this August. We had six fire emergencies between 1953 and 2003. That's how -- how fast things are changing.

Carlos Santana is a rock music legend and an absolutely fantastic guitar player, one of the greatest of all time. Since he’s Latino, you’d think he would have a few extra layers of immunity from the rabid online cancel culture mob, but alas, all of that is forgotten when you dare to make a scientifically accurate statement that bursts the LGBTQ community’s bubble of delusion. The “T” in “LGBTQ” stands for transgender, by the way.
According to Breitbart News, the media is now slamming Santana as “anti-transgender” because he stated the clear biological truth that “a woman is a woman and a man is a man” during one of his recent
On June 5th, 1989 an iconic photo was taken by CNN in Tiananmen Square of “Tank Man,” a singular Chinese citizen, facing down the Chinese Communist Party’s ruthless imperium.
Prior, Tiananmen Square had become an impromptu abattoir, a site where pro-democracy sympathizers had been slaughtered by the thousands. It was the embodiment of Mao Zedong’s famous quip, “political power grows out of the barrel of a gun.”
What the Chinese regime didn’t know though, was that the image of “Tank Man” would be captured by a tired photographer from a hotel balcony, and become one of the most recognized symbols
Portland's Predictable Doom Loop
13 replies
The people elected and selected to run Portland, Oregon, are like kids who get their first car and never think to change the oil. The city is led by a cadre of ardent leftists who thought they could just rev the engine, ignore maintenance, and see the city magically run itself. Instead, they’ve driven the City of Roses into a Doom Loop.
At one time not so long ago, Portland leaders turned the sleepy town into a progressive hub for the creative class, spending billions on 19th-century light rail Choo Choo trains to convey bus riders to their planned utopia. The more the plans failed, the more the planners planned,

Joe Biden is still in Lake Tahoe, staying at the $18 million lakefront home of billionaire Tom Steyer. He's been in Lake Tahoe for a week, except for a brief excursion to Maui for about five hours on Monday.
You would think that maybe Biden would take more than a few hours with the victims, but he got the photo-op he wanted and then he booked it out of there fast, back to his vacation. As my colleague Mike Miller reported, Biden had important things to do -- like take a spin and pilates class on Wednesday with other members of his family. He said he wasn't aware of

After attempts to ban gas stoves burned such proposals' Democrat proponents and proposed new federal vehicle efficiency standards seek to force costs even higher, the Biden administration is now going after (drumroll please) ceiling fans. Republicans in the House of Representatives, however, are not fans of the proposal due to the impact it looks to have on America's small businesses.
In a new letter to the U.S. Department of Energy and its leader Secretary Jennifer Granholm, members of the House Small Business Committee pointed out the problems with the latest policy in the Biden administration's supposedly "green" energy crusade that's anything but.

Leftist politicians rarely tell the truth. Their policies and ideals are so bad that they can't, and they know it, thus the nonstop hyperbole, grandstanding, and projection. It's infuriating that so many Americans either are unable to see this, thanks in part to a complicit MSM, or so blinded by their ideology that they choose to ignore the fact that they get endlessly played by those they keep electing.
As with any good totalitarian leftist regime, gun confiscation is at the top of the leftist wish list. It's much easier to institute control and compliance over an unarmed citizenry than it is an armed one.
Happy Friday, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends. (Snip) Welcome to the unhinged American progressive remake of “Groundhog Day” as a political nightmare. Here is Athena’s succinct and perfect explanation of the plot:
In what has now become emblematic of the moral and societal implosion of the United States of America at the hands of the radical Leftists running the Establishment, former President and front-running presidential candidate Donald J. Trump has turned himself in and been arraigned at the Fulton County jail in Atlanta.
I’m sure that I’ve written this before, but it bears repeating: this is wearisome. A once-great country is being subjected to the manifestation of the emotional imbalance
As catastrophic wildfires ravaged Maui, preservationist environmentalists didn’t miss an opportunity to politicize the tragedy.
As of this writing, over 100 Hawaiians have tragically lost their lives and many, sadly, are still unaccounted for. Yet, those ceaselessly beating the climate crisis drum have encircled our fellow Americans like vultures to exploit their plight instead of consoling them.
Notable mouthpieces, namely Democratic lawmakers, have used the situation to pressure President Joe Biden to declare a climate emergency once and for all finally.
A climate zealot, Senator Ed Markey (D-MA) told POLITICO, “The devastation in Maui is a clear sign that the president must declare a climate emergency — now.
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said on Wednesday the new BA.2.86 lineage of coronavirus may be more capable than older variants in causing infection in people who have previously had COVID-19 or who have received vaccines.
CDC said it was too soon to know whether this might cause more severe illness compared with previous variants.
But due to the high number of mutations detected in this lineage, there were concerns about its impact on immunity from vaccines and previous infections, the agency said. Scientists are keeping an eye on the BA.2.86 lineage because it has 36 mutations that distinguish it from the currently-dominant XBB.1.5 variant.
CDC, however,
On Wednesday, Dr. Jordan Peterson lost a court battle against the College of Psychologists of Ontario. The case centered on Peterson’s comments on Twitter/X and during personal appearances. The case was heard by the Ontario Superior Court of Justice Divisional Court.
The decision stated that the college had been receiving complaints about Peterson’s remarks since 2018. Those included formal complaints and those aired via Twitter. Many of the issues were regarding race, transgenderism, overpopulation, and COVID-19. Peterson was represented by the Canadian Constitution Foundation (CCF), which stated that Peterson has maintained that his comments did not pertain to the practice of psychology. According to the decision,
Happy Wednesday, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends. (Snip) While catching up yesterday and reading about how horribly wrong things have been going in Maui, I immediately found myself back in the throes of being infuriated by the unholy alliance between leftist American politicians and the enemy of the people media.
Hawaii isn’t just run by leftists, it’s under the control of far, far-left ideologues. If there is a bad decision to be made in the service of the Climate Cult, it’ll be made. As Rick pointed out in a post yesterday, that seemed to play a big part in this tragedy:
About 85% of wildfires are human-caused — not by carbon emissions
Megan Rapinoe had a chance to make one more indelible mark on the U.S. women’s national team during the Women’s World Cup in the Round of 16 against Sweden – a penalty kick for the ages that would have helped the Americans to the quarterfinals.
Rapinoe stepped up to the marker and launched the ball high. Sweden came back and defeated the U.S. in the matchup. With the miss and the eventual U.S. elimination, Rapinoe and the squad faced a ton of criticism – from fans of the team to those who have turned analysts like Carli Lloyd and Alexi Lalas and even former President Donald Trump.

Friday, during an appearance on FNC’s “Fox & Friends,” former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley, a candidate for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, argued the correct approach to taking on abortion for Republicans was to “humanize” it.According to the former South Carolina governor, the GOP demonizing it only added to the division in the country.
“Be realistic with the numbers,” “Fox & Friends” co-host Ainsley Earhardt said. “Yes, we don’t have enough votes in the House or in the Senate to abolish this. How did you come up with this answer, and what are you hearing from the voters
Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy has defended a Soros scholarship he accepted, claiming it came at a time when he “didn’t have the money” to pay for Yale Law School. But there is one problem with that argument. According to reports, the entrepreneur was already a multi-millionaire when he took it.
"There was a separate scholarship that I won at the age of 24-25, when I was going to law school in my mid-20s, in my early 20s, when I didn't have the money and it was a merit scholarship that hundreds of kids win, that was partially funded, not by George Soros, but by Paul Soros a relative,
A district judge appointed by Joe Biden has ruled that parents in Montgomery County, Maryland, have no right to opt their children out of the school’s woke LGBTQ curriculum.
United States District Judge Deborah L. Boardman ruled against the Muslim-led group of parents who did not want their children exposed to far-left propaganda about sex and gender.
The parents sought an injunction before the first day of school on August 28 after the district changed its policies in March to no longer allow parents to opt their children out of being assigned books that advocate pride parades, gender transitioning, and pronoun preferences for kids as young as pre-kindergarten.
Speaking briefly to reporters from his swanky vacation in Lake Tahoe Friday afternoon, President Joe Biden said he officially requested congressional funding for the development of a new COVID vaccine.

The Republican Party was running ads on Twitter-X on Thursday night begging for donations. (Snip) This worthless group of clueless RINOs said NOTHING when President Trump was indicted and arrested on bogus criminal charges the past six months.
On Thursday night President Trump was arrested on 13 more bogus charges. President Trump’s only crime was speaking out against the stolen 2020 election.
And now the Marxists have arrested the most popular sitting president in history with 91 felony charges. If the leftist courts convict President Trump for unapproved speech,

A neighbor told WBBJ he woke up at 6 am after he heard a loud bang.
The Biden Clan's Con Is Coming To An End

Despite years of Biden family and media disinformation, we are finally learning that President Joe Biden really did fire Ukrainian prosecutor Viktor Shokin for looking into state corruption involving the oil company Burisma and Hunter Biden -- and ultimately Joe Biden himself.
As vice president, Biden, in his own words, bragged that he had threatened to cancel the deliverance of American foreign aid to Ukraine unless Shokin was dismissed.
So what is Congress to do now -- un-impeach and exonerate an innocent impeached Donald Trump, and instead impeach a guilty Biden for essentially the same allegations?
New Hampshire Secretary of State David Scanlan (R) is consulting with the state attorney general to determine if the U.S. Constitution’s Fourteenth Amendment empowers him to keep former President Donald Trump off the 2024 presidential ballot.
As secretary of state, Scanlan oversees New Hampshire’s first-in-the-nation presidential primary that will take place at the beginning of 2024. However, Scanlan has caught wind of scholars’ recent arguments that the Fourteenth Amendment’s Disqualification Clause prohibits Trump from being on the presidential ballot.

Elon Musk’s company Space X has been sued by the Justice Department because the billionaire refused to hire asylum seekers and illegal immigrants.
“The lawsuit alleges that, from at least September 2018 to May 2022, SpaceX routinely discouraged asylees and refugees from applying and refused to hire or consider them, because of their citizenship status, in violation of the Immigration and Nationality Act,” the Justice Department said in a statement.DoJ says that Space X wrongly claimed in its advertisements and online postings that the company could only hire U.S. citizens and green card holders because
Fed's Powell says higher rates may be needed

STORY: "It is the Fed’s job to bring inflation down to our 2% goal, and we will do so,"
Jerome Powell on Friday delivered an assessment that many may not have wanted to hear: The Federal Reserve may not be finished hiking interest rates.
Speaking at the annual Jackson Hole Economy Policy Symposium in picturesque Wyoming, the Fed chairman said that as long as interest rates remained above the central bank's target 2 percent, the fight wasn't over. However, he promised to proceed "carefully."
"Although inflation has moved down from its peak -- a welcome development -- it remains too high. We are prepared to raise rates further if appropriate, and
