Warmist Supports Hyper-Lefty Mickie Sherril For Governor Due To Storm 13 Years Ago

I mean, if you have to look to something 13 years ago to support a candidate that candidate must not have very good policies

13 years after Sandy, NJ can’t gamble on climate change. Sherrill for governor | Opinion

On this thirteenth anniversary of Hurricane Sandy, climate inaction is driving up our utility costs while putting New Jersey in an even worse position than in 2012, when Sandy damaged or destroyed hundreds of thousands of homes, took 38 New Jersey lives, and caused tens of billions in economic losses — the costliest disaster in our state’s history. I still remember the post-apocalyptic quiet in the low-lying neighborhoods of Jersey City that were hit the hardest. In Hoboken, my wife (then my girlfriend) was displaced from her home at Park and First, where eight-foot-high water marks stained the walls and where we eventually found her refrigerator tossed into a neighbor’s backyard by floodwaters.

And yet, instead of investing in the resilience of our communities, the federal government is gutting disaster relief programs and slashing clean energy investments while our utility bills are skyrocketing and AI data centers exacerbate the strain on our power grid. It’s more important than ever that we elect a governor like Rep. Mikie Sherrill, who will stand up to President Donald Trump, lower utility bills, implement clean energy standards and fight for continued investments in disaster response. (snip)

Meanwhile, climate driven flooding and coastal risk are pushing property insurance companies to raise rates or refuse coverage altogether. And at the same time, our state’s four major investor-owned utilities have increased residential rates by roughly 20% this year alone. Half of New Jersey households now say they struggle to afford their utility bills. This is untenable, and it shouldn’t be inevitable.

Who runs NJ? Democrats. Who has closed power plants, including the Oyster Creek plant in Ocean County, and replaced affordable, reliable energy with expensive, unreliable energy? Sandy was an aberration, and they happen. Flooding has always happened at the shore, because it is low lying, and you have the Intra-Coastal Waterway running down the state from Manasquan down. But, you know, wackos like Raj Mukherji deserve moonbats like Sherrill.

BTW, why do so few Dems give up their own use of fossil fuels in NJ?

The Hill Says How Dems And GOP Can Save Face And End Shutdown

Again, my way would be to add the Obamacare subsidies in with a 1 year expiration date, explaining that this won’t happen again, there needs to be a serious change to the program (there’s no way it can be killed off at this point, sadly).

How Democrats, GOP could end shutdown and save face

Voices in both parties say Democrats and Republicans alike are looking for a deal that would allow them to save face while ending a shutdown that’s causing increasing pain to Americans across the country.

The difficulty is finding a sweet spot that reopens the government and allows both sides to walk away telling their bases — with a straight face — that they won.

There is no obvious solution, and it’s anyone’s guess what the exact compromise will look like. But lawmakers, strategists and other political experts say there are two ingredients crucial to a deal: President Trump and ObamaCare subsidies.

The enhanced tax credits under the Affordable Care Act (ACA) have been the central sticking point throughout the month-long shutdown, and both parties have staked out public positions that have, so far, been immovable.

Thing is, Democrats want a lot more, like resumption of USAID and all sorts of Crazy

Republicans say they won’t negotiate an extension of the expiring subsidies — the key Democratic demand — before the Democrats help reopen the government. Democrats say they won’t help reopen the government until the Republicans negotiate on health care. Neither side has given an inch in the month since the government shut its doors — and leaders of both sides publicly insist that they won’t.

The way out of the impasse will require a delicate dance, but experts say they have at least a couple options to pursue without either side appearing to cave.

The first involves a commitment from Trump, who’s been on the sidelines of the debate, to sit down with a select group of Democrats on a specific date to negotiate a deal to extend the ACA subsidies in some form. In return, Democrats would agree to open up the government by supporting the “clean” Republican spending bill that’s been wallowing in the Senate for more than four weeks.

The same CR Dems voted for 13 times prior to the shutdown.

A second option to break the impasse would involve Republicans promising an up or down vote — not just negotiations — on extending the ACA subsidies in return for Democrats’ help in ending the shutdown. (snip)

If Republicans renege, Democrats could shutter the government again at the next budget deadline, whenever it arrives.

Dems won’t buy this, because Dems renege all the time on promises, and would only see what they would do.

Besides ACA subsidies, Democrats have also demanded that there be specific language in a budget bill that requires Trump to spend funds as Congress intended to. Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) said even if Democrats support a short term stopgap measure to reopen the government, he doesn’t believe his fellow colleagues will sign onto a full year budget unless it “constrains the level of illegality happening.”

“I’m not going to vote for an immoral, corrupt budget, whether it be a short term budget or a long term budget, that throws millions of people off their health care and helps Trump engage in his ongoing witch hunt operation of my allies. I’m just not going to do it. And again, I think that the bar is different for a short term deal…the longer term budget will be the opportunity for us to put more constraints on his illegality. But I’m interested in far more than a promise or a failed vote,” Murphy said.

Y’all voted for it again and again and again. What’s changed?

But with the shutdown poised to hit millions of low-income people in federal education, nutrition and health care programs — and with flight delays already snarling air travel coast to coast and threatening to get worse — some observers say both sides will have little choice but to move toward the other.

Here’s what interested me the most in this piece: do Americans realize that the federal government is way, way, way, way, way too involved in citizen’s lives, that they provide way, etc. too much aid? That it would make a hell of a lot more sense if it was state governments funding and appropriating? That we should be sending less money to Los Federales, instead sending it to the state? That that is the way it is supposed to be, and that the feds have really no Constitutional authority for most of what they do.

Perhaps it is not such a good to have the federal government so involved?

Warmists Upset With Convenience Store For Wild Reason

You know they can never mind their own business, and have to make everything about their cult

Gas station faces major backlash for unbelievable notice posted on door: ‘How could this possibly be legal?’

“No shoes, no shirt, no service” is a phrase that reportedly became popular in the 1960s and 1970s (along with similar variations) when businesses sought to regulate their patrons. It has since opened the gates for all sorts of rules dictated by businesses — some less blatantly pointed than others.

A shocking TikTok video originally posted by Truly (@trulyknowsmusic) was recently reposted in a subreddit community dedicated to the harmful effects of cars while supporting alternative modes of transportation.

The video captures a sign on the door of a gas station in Tucson, Arizona, that says, “No walkers allowed. Must arrive in vehicle to enter store. We have the right to refuse service to anyone.”

In a country where cities are largely designed around cars, we now know the negative environmental impact of the auto industry. Discouraging people from walking or using other forms of transportation is extremely counterproductive to the cooler climate we all need.

See, people were upset over the message, and the climate cult had to make it about climate doom

Walking or any other type of active transportation, when possible, is much better for our health and the planet.

If anything, this country could use signs that encourage and reward people for not driving their cars instead of the opposite.

Go away. Leave us alone. And I’m betting there is a darned good reason the store had to display the sign. It doesn’t look like a bad neighborhood from the video, but, I don’t live there, and cannot figure out what store it is. They must have a big problem from walkers. Perhaps homelessness, because Tucson has been having a crisis.

Unsurprisingly, Britons Are Getting Tired Of Immigration

Their illegals and refuges and fake asylum seekers tend to be a little different from those coming to America, for the most part. Theirs tend to be from the Islamist world and shithole African nations (and often Islamists, to boot)

Britons have tougher views on immigration than Americans, study finds

New research reveals the British public holds notably tougher attitudes towards immigration and is less inclined to believe diversity strengthens society compared to their American counterparts.

These findings, from the National Centre for Social Research, challenge the widely held perception that Britain is inherently more socially liberal than the United States.

The study specifically highlighted that Reform UK voters in Britain were more prone than supporters of President Donald Trump in the US to advocate for the expulsion of immigrants residing in their country without permission.

While seven in 10 supporters of Mr Trump felt this way, the figure was almost eight in 10 (79 per cent) among Reform followers.

Who are the 3 in 10 who don’t feel this way?

Their survey found 42 per cent of people in the UK think there should be legal efforts to deport immigrants living here without permission, compared with just a third (33 per cent) in the US.

While almost two-thirds (64 per cent) of respondents in the US felt diversity strengthens society, only around half (49 per cent) of the UK public agreed.

Does diversity help? Usually not anymore, because it is just a method to separate people, give them their own little bit of Victimhood, while demanding everything change for their own little beliefs. England gets to deal with the diversity of hardcore Islamists and everything that comes with that. Something like 33% of London is now Islamicized.

Alex Scholes, research director at NatCen, said: “The idea that Britain is more socially liberal than America doesn’t hold up across all issues.

“While the UK is clearly more liberal on questions to do with family, sexuality and religion, attitudes to immigration and diversity show the opposite pattern.

Their immigrants want the UK to be an Islamic caliphate, and are working hard to make that happen. Here’s the question, though: do the powers that be give a flying rat’s ass what the peasants think? They sure haven’t for decades. And nothing will change as long as the people keep voting against their best interests. But, really, the UK is already lost.

LOL: Illinois Passes Law Banning Feds From Arresting Illegals Near Courthouses

You have no power here

Illinois lawmakers pass bill banning ICE immigration arrests near courthouses

Illinois lawmakers passed a bill on Friday prohibiting federal agents from making immigration arrests near courthouses.

The measure also allows lawsuits when people believe their constitutional rights were violated during civil immigration arrests.

The legislation, approved largely along party lines, was sent to Democrat Gov. JB Pritzker’s desk. His office said he supports the idea and will review the proposal when it reaches his desk.

According to the bill, civil damages for false imprisonment could be imposed when a migrant attending a court hearing or appearing as a party or witness to a legal proceeding is arrested. (snip)

The measure also requires hospitals, day care centers and higher education institutions to create policies detailing how they would handle immigration agents inside their facilities.

Well, if Photobucket was working for my blog (it works fine on my backup, and earlier than the 1030am post on October 30), I’d have that scene from The Two Towers about “you have no power here“, from Demolition Man with Wesley Snipes saying “I’m so scared“, and from Batman where he says “good luck”. Let’s see if the last one works as a GIF

This state law means exactly zip to Los Federales. They do not have to follow it in the least. Meanwhile, the pro-illegal crowd was posting up a seriously cut version of this video, saying how bad it was that law enforcement pulled a gun

Don’t mess with law enforcement. Don’t pull shenanigans. Otherwise, they are legally allowed to do this while you poop your pants.

Your Fault: Study Says Global Boiling Made Hurricane Melissa 4 Times Worse

We could have avoided this had you moved into a tiny home, hand washed and line dried your clothes, and replaced all your lightbulbs

Climate Change Made Hurricane Melissa 4 Times More Likely, Study Suggests

Fueled by unusually warm waters, Hurricane Melissa this week turned into one of the strongest Atlantic storms ever recorded. Now a new rapid attribution study suggests human-induced climate change made the deadly tropical cyclone four times more likely.

Hurricane Melissa collided with Jamaica on Tuesday, wreaking havoc across the island before tearing through nearby Haiti and Cuba. The storm, which reached Category 5, reserved for the hurricanes with the most powerful winds, has killed at least 40 people across the Caribbean so far. Now weakened to a Category 2, it continues its path toward Bermuda, where landfall is likely on Thursday night, according to the National Hurricane Center. (snip)

The findings echo similar reports released earlier this week on how global warming contributed to the likelihood and severity of Hurricane Melissa. Each of the analyses add to a growing body of research showing how ocean warming from climate change is fueling the conditions necessary for stronger tropical storms.

Hurricane Melissa is “kind of a textbook example of what we expect in terms of how hurricanes respond to a warming climate,” said Brian Soden, a professor of atmospheric sciences at the University of Miami, who was not involved in the recent analyses. “We know that the warming ocean temperatures [are] being driven almost exclusively by increasing greenhouse gases.”

Melissa has even ended yet, and it’s been less than a week since it crossed Jamaica, and they’re already trotting a study, linked to other cult studies? I call complete and utter bullshit.

For the rapid attribution study, researchers at Imperial College used the peer-reviewed Imperial College Storm Model, known as IRIS, which has created a database of millions of synthetic tropical cyclone tracks that can help fill in gaps on how storms operate in the real world.

The model essentially runs simulations on the likelihood of a given storm’s wind speed—often the most damaging factor—in a pre-industrial climate versus the current climate. Applying IRIS to Hurricane Melissa is how the researchers determined that human-induced warming supercharged the cyclone’s wind speed by 7 percent.

Computer models. Cult bullshit.
