Just another way to make the U.S. military, what had been the strongest military since WWII, the safeguard of freedom, the protector of American sovereignty, weak and ineffective
Biden says US spending billions to make military vehicles ‘climate friendly’
President Biden on Friday said his administration is working to make “every vehicle” in the United States military “climate-friendly.”
The president, delivering Earth Day remarks from Seward Park in Seattle, Washington, discussed his administration’s efforts to address climate change, and called on Congress to take action.
“One of the things I found out as President of the United States, I get to spend a lot of that money,” Biden said. “We’re going to start the process where every vehicle in the United States military, every vehicle, is going to be climate-friendly — every vehicle — I mean it.”
He added: “We’re spending billions of dollars to do it.”
The president said the transition is “going to matter.”
Yes, it will matter, much like washing your car in the rain. Replacing your guitar strings with knitting thread. Filling your car oil with vegetable oil. But, much, much worse.
It is unclear what steps the Biden administration is taking to transition U.S. military vehicles from their current status to “climate-friendly.”
As usual, Biden is long on dropping some random babble and short on details. Because he’s pretty much lost his faculties, and will just drop things out of the blue.
“You know, my view of this [climate] crisis, as I said, is a genuine opportunity, an opportunity to do things we wanted to do and only now become so apparent,” Biden said.
As for legislation to address climate change, the president signaled to Congress: “You know, my pen’s ready. My pen’s ready to sign. I’m anxious to sign this. Get some of these bills to my desk.”
Yeah, then he delved into regular autos being electrified. Did you notice where? Yeah, he took a long fossil fueled flight to Seattle, Washington. Which included a helicopter ride to the D.C. airport, a chase jumbo jet, bringing his massive limo, and a fossil fueled convoy of 18-20 vehicles to get him to Seward Park. If the GOP doesn’t screw it up and lose the mid-terms, they should pass legislation requiring that the White House and all the people who work there, including Biden and Harris, use only climate friendly means of transportation for business. No fossil fueled travel. If Joe wants to go to Seattle, or, Delaware like he does most weekends (he’s there yet again this weekend), he can take the train or an EV. Yes, it would be mostly inessential legislation, but, it would look great with Biden vetoing it.
Anyhow, perhaps one day EVs will be working well enough to have our military use them, but, that time is far off.
Teach and the Social Anarchists (SAPs) want to destroy faith in American institutions, including our military.
Why? In part, because they claim global warming is hoax/scam. Why do they claim global warming is a hoax/scam? Because they don’t like the proposed solutions – transitioning away from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources. By nature, conservatives deplore change, always wishing to conserve the past. And they have a knee-jerk reflex to oppose liberals and to support existing corporations.
Their attack on the US military is just part of their movement to destroy the social fabric of America to rebuilt the nation as white christian paradise.
Dear Elwood:
In case you are unaware, there are no charging stations, fast or otherwise, on a battlefield.
As for “faith,” James said it best.
Faith without work is dead.
Nice try, J. The point is there’s no reason to make the military “climate conformist”. You keep skipping that all important scientific step. So in your mind keeping the military running with fossil fuels is “destroying faith in the military”? Got it
“Why do they think global warming is a scam”? Gee, maybe because there’s no proof the warming would put the earth in a dire condition. So if the cause of the 1.0-1.5 warming was found to be natural and was continuing to rise, would you guys still be wetting your beds? If warming is bad then warming is bad, right? But what would you do-there’d be no taxes to enact and no social engineering to accomplish..
OK, groooomer Jill. We get it. You have only recently recognized that the Earth is warming. In fact, you claim it’s now cooling!!!
We predicted your shit long ago. 1)Deny it’s warming. 2)Then, OK, it’s warming but it’s natural. 3)Then, OK, it’s caused by CO2 but won’t be bad, and the solution is worse than the effects.
You DO realize you cannot possibly prove future predictions, right? You can’t prove you’ll be alive a month from now, but you plan as if you will.
J, if you’ve got proof that warming is so detrimental, by all means show us. But of course if you had that you would have shown us by now. Again, “warming” is irrelevant, which is why you clowns usually stop at “it’s warming!” So what? It’s the effects that would matter.
OK, groooomer.
Well there it is! The dumbest thing I’ve read this week, on a Monday no less!
Stick around, dOwd is just gettin’ started.

Without people like him it would be ten times harder to wake people up to the gravity of this lunacy. I know he’s annoying, but I can’t help to not delight in just how counter productive he is to his own cause.
