The Climate Hoax

Original Article

Posted By: Hazymac, 1/14/2025 9:49:03 AM

When will America realize that climate change is a hoax? By “climate change,” I mean the idea of an overwhelmingly anthropogenic and sudden rise in the Earth’s temperature to catastrophic levels. I have not seen convincing proof of climate change in this sense. I have lived for almost 80 years, and I have not witnessed any perceptible change. The summers are hot, as they were when I was a child. The winters are cold, much too cold for my taste, just as they were when I was out sledding, building snow forts, and throwing snowballs at my friends.

We have 8-10 inches of snow on the ground, ice making every surface potentially a fall danger, and I haven't currently got the strength to fully clear the snow, after my accident. I would dearly love some global warming to melt off this frozen mess.

Sane people knew about twenty years ago. Academia and the government have a sweetheart deal going and are reluctant to give it up.

Turn all of the burnt areas into a wildlife preserve. No buildings homes or businesses allowed to build. Room for native plants and animals. That ought to fix the problem. Cough cough. Like the wealthy land owners and real estate tycoons would allow that.

Us older folks can look back and see that there is NO 'climate change', we have witnessed it. There is only variable weather. And some young fool who hasn't seen more than 25 winters is an expert on 'climate change'. What a load of manure.

Sure, this is about money for the corruptocrats to milk money from the populace. However, it is more about control of the masses. These maniacs are better than you! They're are smarter than you! THEY should be able to order things around as they see fit. You? Well, you aren't fit to shine their shoes. That's what they think of all the MAGA deplorables, and anyone else around the world who thinks the same.

Joe Scarborough Doubles Down On Claim
That Biden Seemed ‘Sharp’ Before Debate
Despite Ample Reports That Say Otherwise

MSNBC host Joe Scarborough on Wednesday doubled down on his claim that President Joe Biden appeared mentally fit before his June debate against President-elect Donald Trump, despite widespread reporting to the contrary. Special counsel Robert Hur and publications like The Wall Street Journal released reports indicating Biden’s mental acuity was in decline before the debate. Yet Scarborough, on “Morning Joe,” who claimed in March that Biden was at his intellectual peak, continued to assert how “sharp” Biden appeared during his time in office, even as Financial Times columnist Edward Luce contradicted his view. “I spent, as I’ve said before, two and a half, three hours with Joe Biden

I’m not complaining, but the Democrats need a better attack dog because Sen. Mazie Hirono (D-HI) is a mental invalid who is abjectly terrible at her job. The line of questioning is always extraneous and over-the-top. The delivery is trash. It’s a ‘Japanese soldiers on Iwo Jima doing human wave tactics’ mentality, but it provides immense entertainment. It’s reached a point where most tune out Hirono and hate-watch, waiting for the moment where she gets her face beat in by these Trump nominees who are eons smarter than she is. Yesterday, she attacked Hegseth, who shrugged it off since most of her questions were innuendos and allegations

Senator Tim Kaine, losing Democrat vice presidential candidate in 2016, seized his opportunity to strut his stuff in Tuesday’s confirmation hearing of Pete Hegseth. I must admit to being surprised by his less than senatorial appearance: subtract the pink tie and gray jacket, and he looked and acted like a fired up, disheveled, portly weekend basketball warrior looking for someone to chest-bump. Kaine fired off some fairly astonishing vitriol. I’m not a student of confirmation hearings — I’ve never watched a single one until now — but Kaine spewed a series of questions I would characterize as evil and manipulative, lacking any trace of generosity or gracefulness.

The lights are going out all over Europe, we shall not see them lit again in our lifetime. Energy costs are de-industrializing one former economic power after another. This Telegraph article is mostly about the U.K.: Sir Jim Ratcliffe has warned that Britain’s multibillion-pound chemicals industry is facing “extinction” because of soaring energy costs and the shift to net zero. *** Sir Jim, the co-owner of Manchester United and one of Britain’s richest men, said: “De-industrialising Britain achieves nothing for the environment. It merely shifts production and emissions elsewhere. Largely to China, which I believe now emits more CO2 than the U.S., the E.U. and India, combined. “The UK, and particularly the North,

Jennifer Rubin, the never-Trump columnist at the Washington Post, has announced that she is leaving the paper and blasted WaPo owner Jeff Bezos on her way out the door. The now-struggling paper has just gone through a round of layoffs. Rubin recently took a shot at the paper while also trashing Trump and Trump supporters during one of her typically unhinged rants. Rubin is joining a new anti-Trump outlet called the Contrarian, which I imagine will occupy the same space as anti-Trump outlets like the Dispatch and the Bulwark.

If folks are looking for a credible answer to be provided by government mouthpieces about the utter failure of assigning resources to fight the infernos that are still sweeping through Los Angeles and surroundings… don’t hold your breath. Elected and appointed officials are true experts at one thing, and that is devising fairytales upon which to direct blame, and sidestep responsibility. There are none better at fingering others, and they’ve had decades, and when speaking historically, centuries of practice. Every chronicle of the past is packed with characters that display no character.

Man Seen Starting Fires With Blow Torch

A suspect seen starting fires with a blow torch in a Los Angeles neighborhood Thursday afternoon is not being charged with arson because a police investigation found “no probable cause.” The man is still being detained on a felony probation violation amid the ongoing investigation, Los Angeles Police Department Assistant Chief Dominic Choi said in a press conference Friday. The arrest comes amid growing speculation that at least some of the LA fires were started by arsonists. The suspect was arrested Thursday night on suspicion of arson near the Kenneth fire, a wildfire that started at about 2:30, Thursday afternoon. The suspect, believed to be a homeless man, had reportedly been

Reading serious reference to President Biden’s “legacy” as though it is anything but an unprecedented catastrophe presents a challenge to my progress in anger management. Joe Biden — this is the guy who opened our borders and invited the world to “come on down,” like someone trying to find his calling as a game show host. This is the guy who deployed the forces of the Department of Justice to incapacitate his foremost political opponent. This is the guy who never said a true word about the corrupt family business and enlisted the former denizens of the deep state to disparage evidence of his corruption as Russian disinformation —

Former Trump attorney Michael Cohen is demanding President Biden pardon him like he pardoned his son Hunter before President-elect Donald Trump can take office. Cohen discussed his efforts to reach out to the Biden administration for a pardon on MSNBC’s "The Weekend" Saturday morning. He claimed that not giving him a presidential pardon would continue to allow him "to be in danger" of a Trump prosecution. Cohen argued Biden has an obligation to protect him and other critics from Trump, like he protected his son Hunter. "Yeah, I put in the application for a presidential pardon because I believe that Joe Biden has the same responsibility to me that he had

I was surprised, if not shocked, when two A-list celebrities, country singers Garth Brooks and his wife Trisha Yearwood, took the microphones at the State Funeral for Jimmy Carter yesterday and began performing “Imagine,” written by former Beatle John Lennon in 1971. The song is widely described as an “atheistic anthem” and incredibly is said to be one of the late 39th president’s favorite songs. "Imagine there’s no heaven It’s easy if you try. No hell below us Above us, only sky. . . Imagine all the people Livin’ for today Ah Imagine there’s no countries It isn’t hard to do Nothing to kill or die for And no religion, too" To me, it sounds like a globalist woke anthem

Former first lady Michelle Obama is set to snub President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration next Monday after skipping former President Jimmy Carter’s funeral last week — where she would have sat next to the one and future commander-in-chief. “Former President Barack Obama is confirmed to attend the 60th Inaugural Ceremonies. Former first lady Michelle Obama will not attend the upcoming inauguration,” the Office of Barack and Michelle Obama said in a statement to the Associated Press. The former first lady’s team did not provide a reason for skipping the inauguration, but Michelle Obama, 60, has been an impassioned critic of Trump, 78, over the past eight years.

Co-host Jonathan Lemire said, “Let’s zero in on the hearing for attorney general nominee Pam Bondi, in particular, much has been made of Donald Trump’s wish for the department of justice to carry out a campaign of retribution against his political foes and the like. What sort of questions do you want to pose to her about that particular topic? How grave of a concern is it?”

During the California leg of a year-long journey across America, I devoted a day to visiting two presidential libraries within a short distance of each other. I started that morning at the Richard Nixon Presidential Museum and Library and a few hours later proceeded to that of Ronald Reagan. Some months earlier I had also stopped at the Harry Truman Library and Museum in Missouri. Every president is actively encouraged to plan and construct an official repository of his documents from his time in office. The resulting library is more than the collection of the paperwork generated during his tenure, however.

It looks like Kamala Harris's classy streak is over. For awhile there, we thought something had changed in her when she graciously certified the 2024 election in the Senate and put on a decent appearance at Jimmy Carter's funeral. It seemed like a politically smart way of distinguishing herself from bitter Joe Biden and preserving her political viability. But now the old Kamala is back, classless as ever, refusing to give the incoming vice president, J.D. Vance and his young family, a courtesy tour of the Naval Observatory, which serves as the vice presidential residence. She even could have proudly shown him all the renovations she had done.

Michelle Obama is skipping Donald Trump’s inauguration because she’s “no phony,” we’re told. While her husband appears to be playing nice with the president-elect, Michelle won’t do the same. Former President Barack Obama and Trump appeared chummy at former President Jimmy Carter’s funeral, but Michelle was nowhere in sight because she was reportedly on an “extended holiday vacation” in Hawaii. (Photo) She isn’t even giving an excuse for Jan. 20. The Office of Barack and Michelle Obama simply announced that Michelle “will not attend the upcoming inauguration,” in a statement to the Associated Press on Tuesday. And a source familiar with the Obamas’ circle told Page Six it’s “deliberate.”
Special counsel report found Trump engaged

WASHINGTON - U.S. Special Counsel Jack Smith concluded that Donald Trump engaged in an "unprecedented criminal effort" to hold on to power after losing the 2020 election, but was thwarted in bringing the case to trial by the president-elect's November election victory, according to a report published on Tuesday. The report details Smith's decision to bring a four-count indictment against Trump, accusing him of plotting to obstruct the collection and certification of votes following his 2020 defeat by Democratic President Joe Biden. It concludes that the evidence would have been enough to convict Trump at trial, but his imminent return to the presidency, set for Jan. 20, made that impossible.

WASHINGTON — Retiring President Biden lifted Cuba’s designation as a state sponsor of terrorism Tuesday, less than a week before leaving office — outraging Republican members of Congress who believe more stringent sanctions should remain in effect. Biden, 82, made the decision in deference to the Catholic Church’s talks with the island’s Communist authorities on releasing political prisoners, the White House said. “We view this as an opportune moment to do so, given the important dialogue that is taking place between Cuba and the Catholic Church with respect to political prisoners,” a Biden administration official told reporters.

Puerto Rico’s governor has called on President-elect Donald Trump to respond after Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro threatened to invade the U.S. territory. Governor Jenniffer González-Colón called on Trump’s administration to “swiftly respond and make clear to the Maduro narco-regime that the U.S. will protect American lives and sovereignty and won’t bow down to petty, murderous thugs” in a letter addressed to the president-elect Monday. González-Colón called Maduro’s threat “an open threat to the United States, our national security and stability in the region.”

Cairo—Hamas has accepted a draft agreement for a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip and the release of dozens of hostages, two officials involved in the talks said Tuesday. Mediators from the United States and Qatar said Israel and the Palestinian militant group were at the closest point yet to sealing a deal to bring them a step closer to ending 15 months of war. The Associated Press obtained a copy of the proposed agreement, and an Egyptian official and a Hamas official confirmed its authenticity. An Israeli official said progress has been made, but the details are being finalized. All three officials spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss the talks.

Hamas is expected to release 33 hostages during the first phase of an emerging ceasefire agreement being finalized by negotiators in Doha, two Israeli officials said, the first positive sign in months that a truce in the Israel-Hamas war may be in sight. Officials have expressed cautious optimism that a deal could soon be announced to halt 15 months of fighting that has destabilized the Middle East and devastated Gaza, allow for more aid into the besieged Palestinian enclave, and ensure the return of dozens of hostages held by Hamas since its attack on Israel on October 7, 2023.

Karen Bass, the city’s mayor, has not only visited Cuba numerous times while serving in public office here in the U.S., but also volunteered to harvest sugarcane with the Venceremos Brigade organized by Fidel Castro in 1969, which served as a training program for leftist American agitators, spies, and terrorists. And when Fidel Castro died in 2016, she whined loudly about what “a great loss to the Cuban people” the passing of their “commander in chief” was.
