Reports Says Israel Is Offering Hamas Head Safe Passage For Release Of Hostages

By William Teach September 11, 2024 – 7:00 am

This should make the Hamas supporters happy, knowing that their leader won’t be blown up

Israel offers Sinwar safe passage out of Gaza in exchange for hostages – report

Israel’s chief negotiator for hostages and missing persons, Gal Hirsch, proposed offering Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar safe passage out of Gaza in exchange for the 101 hostages in the terror group’s captivity, a Tuesday Bloomberg interview revealed.

According to the report, the proposal to allow Sinwar’s escape from Gaza has been on the table for two days, yet it is unclear what Hamas’s response has been and whether they would accept it.

The offer was made with the intent of developing new solutions for a deal as ongoing negotiations “look more and more dim,” Hirsch explained.

“I’m ready to provide safe passage to Sinwar, his family, whoever wants to join him. We want the hostages back. We want demilitarization, de-radicalization of course — a new system that will manage Gaza,” Hirsch stated.

Will Sinwar go for this? He doesn’t care a whit about the civilians in Gaza, and, the base Hamas fighters are disposable cannon fodder. He would get safe, taking people with him. But, does he want that more than he wants to continue forcing Israel to battle in Gaza, knowing how many Israel and Jew haters there are out there in the 1st World? In the United Nations?

Meanwhile

Hmm, operating in a designated civilian protection area. Hamas wouldn’t do that, right?

Unsurprisingly, Kamala’s Climate (scam) Director Is A Wacko

By William Teach September 10, 2024 – 3:15 pm

I know you’re going to be totally shocked by this

Kamala Harris’ new climate director said she is hesitant to have children because of climate change threats

Vice President Kamala Harris’ 2024 campaign hired a new climate director who has frequently said the effects of climate change are part of what’s stopping her from having children.

Camila Thorndike, who previously worked in the Senate managing the climate portfolio of Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., was given the title of climate engagement director for the Harris for President campaign in September 2024, according to her LinkedIn page.

Prior to joining the Harris campaign, Thorndike said on several occasions that she considers climate change a factor when deciding whether to have kids.

“I was 15 when I first saw the climate ‘hockey stick’ graph. I realized that this skyrocketing arrow of temperature would take place in my lifetime. All of the big milestones of life that I was looking forward to would be in the context of this big global crisis. It led to the question of whether or not to have kids – which is still a big question for me – where I would put down roots, what my family would do,” Thorndike said in 2018 when she was the D.C. campaign director for the Chesapeake Climate Action Network.

The wacko has stated this many, many times since 2018, because cultists gotta cult. But, really, it would be a great thing of no Warmist had children, so, there would be less chance of more kids being indoctrinated into a doomsday cult.

Anyhow, in case you missed it, here’s Cackles’ “plan” for Hotcoldwetdry

As Attorney General, Kamala Harris won tens of millions in settlements against Big Oil and held polluters accountable. As Vice President, she cast the tie-breaking vote to pass the Inflation Reduction Act, the largest investment in climate action in history. This historic work is lowering household energy costs, creating hundreds of thousands of high-quality clean energy jobs, and building a thriving clean energy economy, all while ensuring America’s energy security and independence with record energy production. As President, she will unite Americans to tackle the climate crisis as she builds on this historic work, advances environmental justice, protects public lands and public health, increases resilience to climate disasters, lowers household energy costs, creates millions of new jobs, and continues to hold polluters accountable to secure clean air and water for all. As the Vice President said at the international climate conference, COP28, she knows that meeting this global challenge will require global cooperation and she is committed to continuing and building upon the United States’ international climate leadership. She and Governor Walz will always fight for the freedom to breathe clean air, drink clean water, and live free from the pollution that fuels the climate crisis.

Like the rest of her “plans”, they aren’t really plans, just random thoughts not ever worthy of a sticky pad. It’s nonsense, like most of what she spews. She just regurgitating things she was involved in. A plan requires a goal, list tasks, assign tasks, have a deadline. And does she really think she can unite Americans?

Biden-Harris Bring Haitians To Springfield, See Them Eat Ducks

By William Teach September 10, 2024 – 10:30 am

They aren’t illegals: Biden-Harris brought them to the U.S.

Springfield, Ohio: Residents Say Haitian Migrants Crashing Cars, Spiking Insurance, Eating Ducks from Parks

The government’s delivery of roughly 20,000 migrants to Springfield, Ohio, has been a boon for real estate, local employers, auto salesmen, merchants, and the migrants — but also an unwanted shock to locals as they try to manage their own community.

The damage was displayed at the August 27 city commission meeting where voters presented their concerns about the migrants.

“Maybe we should open up go-kart land again so that people can have a chance to learn how to drive without being on these public streets,” long-time resident Jeffrey Allen told the mayor and four other commissioners.

“I really challenge you guys to get out here and do something,” Anthony Harris, who describes himself as a local YouTube influencer, told the council. “These Haitians are running into trash cans. They’re running into buildings. They’re… flipping cars in the middle of the street.”

Adding 20,000 3rd Worlders to a town of 58,000 sure has spiced it up, eh? Oh, and an unlicensed Haitian ran into a school bus, forcing off the road, and killing Aiden Clark in 2023. That blood is on the hands of Biden-Harris

The locals say the problems imported by Biden’s deputies go far beyond driving skills.

“They’re in the park grabbing up ducks by their neck and cutting their head off and walking off with them and eating them,” Anthony Harris claimed.

There are lots of reports of this happening in Springfield. Import the 3rd world and get the 3rd world. They won’t assimilate. These Haitians are here under TPS, Temporary Protected Status, meaning they are brought in for a temporary period before returning to their home countries after some sort of disaster. But, they almost never leave. Democrats keep them here. And eventually try to make them voting citizens.

Bummer: Climate Doom Could Cause Big Problems For Pacific Island Tourism

By William Teach September 10, 2024 – 7:15 am

This could have been avoided, but, you like to take fossil fueled flights to Pacific islands for vacations

Climate change leaves future of Pacific Islands tourism ‘highly uncertain’

The Pacific Islands are scattered across a vast area of ocean, with some of the clearest waters in the world, and pristine beaches and rainforests.

They are a magnet for tourism, which is vital for many of the countries’ economies.

But the region’s travel industry, and those who rely on it, are increasingly fearful of the impact of continuing climate change.

“Pacific Island leaders have declared climate change as the foremost threat to the livelihoods, security, and well-being of Pacific communities,” says Christopher Cocker, the chief executive of the Pacific Tourism Organisation.

“Without immediate and innovative action, the future of tourism in the region remains highly uncertain.”

Blah blah blah. It’s a ridiculously long article that shocking, or, being that the BBC is a mouthpiece for the Cult of Climastrology, unshockingly, fails to consider that these islands would revert back to their pre-colonial pasts without fossil fuels. No one is coming on sailing ships. All these island nations have lots and lots of airports for planes and helicopters. They receive most of their goods and tourists via fossil fueled planes, along with fossil fueled cargo ships. They often use fossil fuels for their own fishing boats.

The group champions sustainable tourism and environment protection, and is restoring mangroves and planting trees. But Ms Vakacola tells me that this part of Viti Levu, Fiji’s biggest island, is already living with the consequences of warming temperatures.

Bore water is being contaminated by salinity from the encroaching sea and, more and more, rainwater must be harvested during the wet season.

“Water security is a big risk in terms of climate change,” explains Ms Vakacola.

Considering most of these islands were created from corals, rather than being volcanic in nature, did they ever consider that the seas have been much higher in the past?

Anyhow, what they really want is money. They do not want tourists to stop coming on fossil fueled airplanes.

National People’s Congress Black Caucus Extols Companies Complying With DEI

By William Teach September 10, 2024 – 7:00 am

This kind of governmental interference in private companies goes way beyond socialism

Congressional Black Caucus releases corporate accountability report on DEI

A majority of Fortune 500 companies have maintained their commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) despite growing political and legislative attacks on such practices, according to a new report from the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) released Monday.

The report, “What Good Looks Like: A Corporate Accountability Report on Diversity, Equity and Inclusion,” is the first-of-its-kind report to grade such companies on DEI commitments and racial equity investments since the 2020 murder of George Floyd.

Following Floyd’s killing, a host of U.S. companies pledged to invest in efforts to reduce racial inequities across the nation and to strengthen their DEI efforts.

Would these be some of the same companies which were robbed, looted, set on fire during the mostly peaceful but fiery protests?

The report follows months of the CBC leaders meeting with CEOs and other C-suite executives in Fortune 500 companies. It also includes a ranking report card of each sector.

The financials sector had the highest response rate to the CBC’s report and came in fourth on the report card with 34 out of 93 companies receiving a top score for their efforts.

Communications services had the highest ranking, with 9 out of 19 companies receiving a top score for their efforts.

First, by what constitutional provision are these sitting members of the National People’s Congress, er, U.S. Congress, interfering with the operations of private businesses? Second, it sure seems like these CBC members are saying that blacks are unable to succeed unless they are handed everything on a silver platter. Personally, I have a more positive opinion of blacks and their ability to succeed like everyone else.

This is government intimidation at it’s worst.

College Students Go Gilligan’s Island To Keep The Lights On

By William Teach September 9, 2024 – 3:19 pm

Remember when the Professor built a generator?

Well

College students keep lights on by using gym equipment: ‘Super exciting … that there is an impact’

Students at Brown University have found a novel way to generate clean energy.

According to Kristin Toussaint of Fast Company, the college has installed eight SportsArt machines in the Nelson Fitness Center on campus. The new hardware takes kinetic energy from treadmills, rowing machines, and stair machines and converts it into electricity.

The initiative was powered by senior Elina Pipa, who took a class on climate solutions.

“The place where I felt like I could make a difference and really be passionate about implementing this project was Brown,” Pipa said. “I really hoped to make my pitch come true, if possible.” (snip)

As more and more institutions look to make a green energy push, you can expect to see more of these unique solutions in the hunt for sustainable, renewable energy sources. From passive and net-zero buildings and retrofittings, to the surging implementation of solar resources, organizations worldwide are committing more resources to going green.

I mean, it’s not a bad idea, converting that exercise into electricity, but, wouldn’t it just be easier to build nuclear power plants? And having the college kids give up their own use of fossil fueled vehicles? How soon till colleges start making these kinds of power generation mandatory for the kiddies?

House Report Shows Biden-Harris So Intent On Getting Out Of Afghanistan They Ignored All Advice

By William Teach September 9, 2024 – 10:30 am

The Biden-Harris supporters like to say “hey, Biden was just following Trump’s plan”, but, that plan was old, Biden was the actual president, and he refused to listen, because, plans can, you know, be updated and changed

Biden was hellbent on leaving Afghanistan – ignoring military advice, NATO objections and Afghan pleas: House report

President Biden was so hellbent on getting out of Afghanistan that he rebuked any advice to the contrary, ignored the pleas of the Afghan government and disregarded objections from US allies.

That was the one of the main takeaways from the House Foreign Affairs Committee’s more than two-year investigation into America’s chaotic, deadly Afghanistan withdrawal, according to a blistering report released Sunday. (snip)

His administration consistently lied to and misled the American public to try to convince them to support his consequences-be-damned view that the US should swiftly end it’s 20-year war in Afghanistan, the review said.

Former President Donald Trump’s administration had previously created and entered into the Doha Agreement with the Afghan government and the Taliban to end the US war in Afghanistan.

But Biden forged ahead with little deference to the terms of the agreement — no matter the cost — though he would later blame the same document for forcing his hand, the report found.

That plan noted that withdrawal was based on the Taliban meeting certain terms: unsurprisingly, Biden totally ignored those terms in his rush to get out of Afghanistan.

On Feb. 4, 2021, then-State Department spokesman Ned Price announced that the US would begin the review to assess the Taliban’s adherence to the Doha Agreement to evaluate whether the US should imminently withdraw from Afghanistan.

But “in his testimony before the committee, contrary to his public statement, Mr. Price asserted the Taliban’s adherence to the Doha Agreement was in fact ‘immaterial’ to the Biden-Harris administration’s decision to withdraw from Afghanistan,” the document found.

And what was Kamala doing? She did say, after all, that she was the last person in the room during withdrawal and had a large hand in crafting the withdrawal.

Biden made the decision to pull out entirely despite nearly every military official advising against it, the document said.

“Despite President Biden’s public assertions to the contrary, our investigation has revealed the secretary of defense, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs, the commander of US Central Command, the secretary of state, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, and the commander of NATO’s Resolute Support Mission and United States Forces-Afghanistan all advised against withdrawing all US troops from the country — both during and after the interagency review,” the report said.

We all witnessed this live on TV as the Taliban overran the nation, took over military bases, claimed billions in military material, and killed American citizens. It’s a long article, worth the read. And, let’s not forget, the fecklessness of the Biden-Harris admin led Russia to think they could easily invade Ukraine.

Warmists Wants Americans To Turn Off Their AC Or Something

By William Teach September 9, 2024 – 7:00 am

Why can’t these nags just mind their own business?

Scientist calls for Americans to cut off air conditioning in summer, claiming it causes global warming

A scientist is calling for Americans to cut off air conditioning after refusing to use it for 25 years during the throes of the summer in order to combat climate change.

Stan Cox is an Ecosphere Fellow at the Land Institute who also believes the U.S. military is an “enemy” to mitigating climate change. He wrote a guest essay in the New York Times on Saturday, “I Swore Off Air-Conditioning, and You Can, Too,” claiming that “air-conditioning is making our summers even hotter” due to climate change.

“The greenhouse gases created by the roughly 90 percent of American households that own A.C. units mean that running them even in balmy temperatures is making the climate crisis worse,” Cox wrote.

Yeah yeah yeah. You do you. Leave the rest of us alone. Of course, you know that these cultists want to get the government to force people to turn the AC off, or, at least keep it at a much higher temperature.

For those who might say it’s a drastic step that’s too far, Cox believes that they’ll get used to living without AC.

“Our species evolved, biologically and culturally, under wildly varying climatic conditions, and we haven’t lost that ability to adapt. Research suggests that when we spend more time in warm or hot summer weather, we can start feeling comfortable at temperatures that once felt insufferable. That’s the key to reducing dependence on air-conditioning: The less you use it, the easier it is to live without it,” he said.

Piss off. No one asked for your opinion or advice.
