LONDON/SINGAPORE - Global demand for liquefied natural gas (LNG) is estimated to rise by more than 50% by 2040, as China and countries in South and Southeast Asia use LNG to support their economic growth, Shell said on Wednesday. The market remains "structurally tight", with prices and price volatility remaining above historic averages, constraining growth, the world's largest LNG trader said in its 2024 annual LNG market outlook. Demand for natural gas has peaked in some regions, including Europe, Japan and Australia in the 2010s, but continues to rise globally, and is expected to reach around 625-685 million metric tons per year in 2040, Shell said

And Biden pulls back LNG permits! What a colossal idiot or more likely the rabid global warming idiots infesting the government. Biden is just a placeholder adding a veneer of authority to what is going on while he sleeps. This is the biggest energy bonanza of all time and Russia is going to be the biggest beneficiary due to these idiots. Stupidity beyond belief.

Sounds about right to me. Methane (the greatest majority of natural gas) is a wonderful, clean, amazingly good fuel for heating homes, for manufacturing and especially nice for cooking. The leftist pukes are totally deranged, divorced from reality on this wonderful fuel.

I’m dubious about this report. After all, it is from Reuters.

Elon Musk's rocket company SpaceX has transferred its incorporation from Delaware to Texas, the CEO and co-founder posted on X. The move comes just weeks after a Delaware judge struck down Musk's $55.8 billion pay package as CEO of Tesla, prompting the billionaire to lash out against the state on social media, urging other companies to depart Delaware as well. "SpaceX has moved its state of incorporation from Delaware to Texas!" Musk wrote in a post on Tuesday, adding, "If your company is still incorporated in Delaware, I recommend moving to another state as soon as possible."

WASHINGTON — An FBI informant has been indicted on two counts of allegedly feeding the bureau false information about President Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden during the 2020 presidential campaign. Alexander Smirnov, 43, disliked Joe Biden and was arrested in Las Vegas after returning from a trip overseas, according to the Justice Department. The case grew out of the special counsel investigation being led by David Weiss, who is also leading the case against Hunter Biden. Weiss had been appointed by then-President Donald Trump as the top federal prosecutor in Delaware. The 37-page indictment alleges that Smirnov had been a confidential human source for the FBI since 2010

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s (R) handling of the migrant crisis at his state’s southern border is catapulting him into the spotlight outside of Texas as the crisis plays out on the national stage. Republicans in Washington have failed to pass legislation addressing the migrant crisis despite making it a top political issue. Abbott, on the other hand, has taken action, putting him at odds with the Biden administration. The governor’s border policies and subsequent standoff with the administration have given him a prominent platform in the conservative media sphere that he could utilize to his advantage as he considers his future steps within the GOP.

JPMorgan Chase and institutional investors BlackRock and State Street Global Advisors (SSGA) on Thursday announced that they are quitting or, in the case of BlackRock, substantially scaling back involvement in a massive United Nations climate alliance formed to combat global warming through corporate sustainability agreements. In a statement, the New York-based JPMorgan Chase explained that it would exit the so-called Climate Action 100+ investor group because of the expansion of its in-house sustainability team and the establishment of its climate risk framework in recent years. BlackRock and State Street, which both manage trillions of dollars in assets, said the alliance's climate initiatives had gone too far,

According to a recent ABC News/Ipsos poll, 86% of Americans now believe Joe Biden's too old to serve as president. The mainstream media's fluffing of Biden and deflection to the fitness of Donald Trump hasn't fooled most voters, and that includes 73% of Democrats. In fact, the mainstream media hasn't even fooled itself. Now that Robert Hur has exposed the Rehoboth Beach Emperor as having no clothes, Puck's Dylan Byers reports that White House correspondents knew it all along.

Special counsel Robert Hur will testify about his investigation into President Biden’s handling of classified documents in a public hearing before the House Judiciary Committee next month, a source familiar with the plans confirmed to National Review. Hur, who released a more than 300-page report on his investigation last week, will testify before the committee on March 12, as the Washington Examiner first reported. The special counsel said last week he would not recommend Biden face charges for his mishandling of classified documents after leaving the office of the vice presidency, though he found Biden “willfully retained” such materials.

A former longtime friend and coworker of Fulton County district attorney Fani Willis testified on Thursday that Willis started a romantic relationship with Nathan Wade in 2019, years before she hired Wade to lead the Georgia election-fraud case against former president Donald Trump and more than a dozen other co-defendants. The testimony of Robin Bryant-Yeartie, who became friends with Willis in college in the early 1990s and later worked with her in the Fulton County district attorney’s office, appears to directly contradict a recent court filing Willis made in which she and Wade claimed that they didn’t start a personal relationship until 2022,

A trial date has been set in Donald Trump's New York hush-money case. Jury selection will begin on Monday 25 March, a judge ruled today, turning down requests for a delay from Trump's lawyers. The case centres on years-old accusations that Trump sought to bury stories about extramarital affairs that emerged during his 2016 presidential campaign. Prosecutors claim he paid off two women - porn star Stormy Daniels and former Playboy model Karen McDougal - as well as a Trump Tower doorman who claimed to have a story about Trump having a child outside of marriage. Trump denies having any of the sexual encounters.

The U.S. used a multi-bladed weapon to kill Iran-backed Kataib Hezbollah leader Abu Baqr al-Saadi in February. The U.S. targeted al-Saadi in Iraq on Feb. 7 out of retaliation for Kataib Hezbollah’s attacks against a military base in Jordan in late January that killed three U.S. troops. The weapon that was used to kill al-Saadi is a modified hellfire “flying ginsu” missile wielding six long blades, which was previously unreported in the aftermath of the strike, defense officials told The Wall Street Journal. The AGM-114 R9X hellfire missile, sometimes referred to as a Ginsu or a ninja bomb, does not contain a warhead and does not explode on impact, instead

At the time of this meeting, Bob Chapek was the Disney Grooming Syndicate’s CEO. Iger was serving in the ad hoc post of executive chairman. Eleven months later, primarily due to Disney’s entry into partisan politics and the divisive culture wars, Chapek would be gone, and Iger would be back in charge.

Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley blamed former president Donald Trump for Republican Mazi Melesa Pilip’s loss to Democrat Tom Suozzi in the special election for George Santos’s former Long Island House seat. Echoing the case they’ve made for their own candidate in the GOP presidential primary, Haley’s campaign argued in a Tuesday night statement that Trump’s brand is toxic among moderates in purple areas like New York’s third district and will continue to weigh down Republicans. “Let’s just say the quiet part out loud.

The Associated Press projected that Suozzi triumphed over Republican Mazi Pilip with 52 percent of the total vote counted. 'This race was fought amidst a closely divided electorate, much like our whole country. This race was centered on immigration and the economy, much like the issues all across our country,' Suozzi said speaking to a crowd of supporters Tuesday night on Long Island. 'We won this race because we addressed the issues and we found a way to bind our divisions.'

Hollywood Biden cheerleader Rob Reiner is once again pushing the left’s “Christian nationalism” boogeyman, saying conservative Christians who are politically active are “antithetical to the teachings of Jesus.” Rob Reiner — who remains one of President Joe Biden’s biggest Hollywood fundraisers — spoke to Newsweek to promote the upcoming documentary God & Country, which Reiner produced. “This movement that they have here seems completely antithetical to the teachings of Jesus,” Reiner said. “Jesus was about peace and love and helping thy neighbor and those less fortunate than ourselves. And I thought that was something that we should all aspire to. So to me this movement is going totally opposite the teachings of Jesus.”

A California lawmaker has proposed an ambitious plan to raise the minimum wage to $50 per hour. Democratic Representative Barbara Lee argued that, due to the affordability crisis in the San Francisco Bay Area, a family of four needs at least $127,000 to survive. Lee's proposal means that minimum wage workers would earn more than $100,000 per year. She made these comments while debating with Reps Adam Schiff (D-CA), Katie Porter (D-CA) and Republican Steve Garvey. Schiff and Porter have both called for the minimum wage to be increased to at least $20 an hour. However, Garvey has resisted raising

Given the wholesale disaster that has been the Biden presidency, one has to wonder how it all happened. We have all seen the Democrat party become radicalized, almost purely Marxist, since the Obama administration. Obama promised to transform the country and he surely did. He effectively drove race relations backward by seventy years. It is common knowledge that Obama despised his VP Biden. Why he was chosen to be his VP in the first place is anybody’s guess. Biden was a known jerk, a racist (his mentor was KKK member/aficionado Robert Byrd), rather dumb, a plagiarist, and a pathological liar.

George Soros, the left’s favorite billionaire, is buying up American radio stations by the hundreds, ahead of the 2024 election. This is obviously part of a strategy, because that’s what Soros does. He hatches backdoor plans to exert influence over American politics. A few years back, he pumped a ton of cash into district attorney races across the country and we all know how that worked out. This is his new plan. Could there be more to this than gaining media influence? The Washington Times reports:
