Who’s Up For Making The Internet More “Sustainable”?

By William Teach March 8, 2024 – 3:00 pm

What this really means is the climate cult looking to control the Internet and what people say on it, what they do, along with enforcing fines and fees for using too much

Climate change SEO survey: Making the web more sustainable

In November, I conducted a survey aimed at SEO professionals, delving into their perspectives on climate change.

This article unpacks the survey results, highlighting key findings and offering practical advice for SEO professionals looking to impact the environment positively.

But first, let’s explore why the link between SEO and climate change matters.

Let’s not. It’s just another attempt to link a thing with the climate cult

What the heck is a low carbon design website? They want to force people to use less streaming. And, the bots thing will be about blocking anyone who’s real who they claim is a bot. If you think that’s conspiracy, you haven’t been paying attention to the Fascist tendencies of the climate cult.

82% of respondents said they were willing to not work with a “fossil fuels producer.” They’re super excited to use a carbon footprint calculator for websites. Which can generate fines and fees as this is enforced for all. Then annoy clients by “educating” clients on their carbon footprint. They can nag by being “more vocal about web sustainability amongst peers and within communities.”

It’ll be fun when the young climahysterics realize that the climate cult they support is limiting their ability to watch everything online as well as uploading their own stupid (except for animal ones) videos.

House Passes Bill Requiring ICE To Arrest Illegals Who Commit Local Theft And Burglary

By William Teach March 8, 2024 – 10:30 am

170 Democrats voted against the bill, which is named after Laken Riley, who was murdered by an illegal

House passes Laken Riley Act requiring ICE to detain migrants arrested for theft

Americans before illegalsThe House of Representatives on Thursday passed the Laken Riley Act that would require ICE to detain illegal immigrants charged with local theft or burglary, after a migrant accused of similar offenses was arrested for the murder of an American college student.

The act, which was passed by a 251-170 vote, is named after 22-year-old Laken Riley, a college nursing student who was recently killed on the campus of University of Georgia. Jose Antonio Ibarra, the illegal immigrant from Venezuela charged with the brutal murder, had been arrested in New York prior to the murder, but was not detained by ICE.

“The senseless murder of Laken Riley by Jose Ibarra, who had no business being in this country, was another wakeup call as Americans experience an illegal alien crime wave because of Joe Biden’s open border and local sanctuary city policies,” Rep. Mike Collins, R-Ga., who introduced the bill, told Fox News Digital earlier this week. He said Thursday after its passage in a post on X that “I now urge the Senate to take up this bill immediately.”

Before being charged with felony murder, Ibarra was once arrested in New York for endangering a child, and he was cited in Georgia for misdemeanor shoplifting in October 2023 along with his brother, Diego Ibarra, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

Realistically, any person arrested for any crime who is unlawfully present in the U.S. should be reported to ICE, and held till ICE comes and picks them up. This bill is aimed directly at those jurisdictions which refuse to cooperate with ICE. In comparison, if someone is going through the legal naturalization system and commit a crime, they are booted from the U.S. It’s spelled out in black and white in the instructions. They know this before they come. They sign documents that they’re clear on all the provisions of obtaining citizenship, including not being criminals. Yet, sanctuary cities, counties, and states ignore illegal aliens committing crime, and usually let them go.

The Laken Riley Act would “require Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to issue a detainer for illegal aliens who are charged or cited with local theft or burglary.”

The bill will also allow individual states to take action against the federal government “if an immigration related action harms the state or its citizens.”

“Allow states to sue the federal government for injunctive relief if an immigration related action (parole, violation of detention requirements, etc.), harms the state or its citizens. This gives states legal resource to force the federal government to address certain failures related to border security,” a press release announcing the legislation read.

It should allow cities and states to sue other cities and states which release illegal alien criminals.

37 Democrats voted with Republicans. My terrible rep, Deborah Ross, voted against it. You can see what yours did here. Will the Senate take the bill up and have a vote?

Aussie XR Wackos Protesting Force Woman To Give Birth On Side Of Road

By William Teach March 8, 2024 – 7:15 am

These nutjobs never consider that their actions are causing problems for other people, but, they think it’s a small price to pay to Save The World (via Green Jihad)

Mum forced to give birth on freeway after climate protest blocks West Gate

A Melbourne mother has thanked a teacher who helped deliver her baby on the side of the road after climate protesters blocked the West Gate Bridge, stopping her from getting to a hospital.

Roshni Lad and her husband Bhairav drove down the wrong side of the road in a panic on their way to hospital during the hours-long blockade yesterday.But after Roshni’s water broke, the couple were forced to pull over and deliver the new baby boy without the help of medical professionals. (snip)

The bridge was blocked off four hours during peak hour yesterday, causing major traffic delays on the West Gate Bridge and nearby roads.

Thank goodness everything went well and the baby is healthy.

Two climate protesters have been sentenced to 21 days in jail over the stunt, after they pleaded guilty to obstructing police and emergency service workers.

Deanna ‘Violet’ Coco, 33, from NSW and 51-year-old Bradley Homewood from Williamstown pleaded guilty to two counts of public nuisance by obstructing motorists and obstructing police and emergency service workers yesterday.

Their co-accused, Joseph Zammit, 68, from Melbourne, also pleaded guilty to the same charges.

He was released on bail on the condition that he not attend unlawful protests or undertake any unlawful actions during a protest and not associate with Coco and Homewood.

The Aussie justice system moves pretty quick, eh? What’s the over/under that all three are back protesting soon? Because, if you click that link in the first excerpt, the XR cultists are promising to cause more chaos in Melbourne. I wonder how many are wearing clothing created with petroleum?

Biden Looking To Use Military For Temporary Port To Feed Hamas

By William Teach March 8, 2024 – 7:00 am

Any aid that is supposed to go to the Palestinians, who support Hamas, will go to Hamas. This is really meant to be a way to patronize his Israel/Jew hating and Hamas loving base

Biden will announce a plan for a temporary port on Gaza’s coast to increase flow of humanitarian aid

President Joe Biden will announce a plan in his State of the Union address Thursday for the U.S. military to help establish a temporary port on the Gaza coast, increasing the flow of humanitarian aid for the beleaguered territory during the Israel-Hamas war, according to administration officials.

The officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to preview the announcement, said the operation will not require that American troops be on the ground to build the pier that is intended to allow more shipments of food, medicine and other essential items.

The officials did not provide details about how the pier would be built. One noted that the U.S. military has “unique capabilities” and can do things from “just offshore.”

Obviously, I wrote this prior to the SOTU for posting Friday morning, but, I’m sure he’ll announce this. The entire SOTU is sure to be essentially a campaign speech, telling us how evil Trump and Republicans are while attempting to convince people that the economy is great. And not look utterly lost at points along with stories that wander on and have no basis in reality.

And, heck, by the time this port is built it will probably not be necessary.

Anyhow, it’s wonderful that Biden wants to build temporary ports in foreign nations while failing to secure the U.S. southern border.

Did anyone watch it? I had the Devils on, switching to Tiny House Hunting during intermission.

Hotcold Take: Climahypocrite John Kerry Says People Would Care More About Ukraine War If Russia Would Reduce Their Emissions

By William Teach March 7, 2024 – 2:53 pm

Kerry has said a lot of stupid things around the climate cult, but, this is a top 5

John Kerry says people would ‘feel better’ about the Ukraine war if Russia would reduce emissions

John Kerry claimed that people would “feel better” about the ongoing war in Ukraine if Russia would “make a greater effort to reduce emissions.”

“If Russia wanted to show good faith, they could go out and announce what their reductions are going to be and make a greater effort to reduce emissions now,” Kerry said during a foreign press briefing on Tuesday in Washington, D.C., his last as the SPEC, as he departed from the position Wednesday to reportedly join President Biden’s presidential re-election campaign.

“Maybe that would open up the door for people to feel better about what Russia is choosing to do at this point in time,” he said.

Kerry’s remarks came after a Russian news agency reporter, Igor Naimushin, asked him about the U.S. relationship with Russia on his climate agenda.

“I believe that Russia has the ability to be able to make enormous changes if it really wanted to. I mean, if Russia has the ability to wage a war illegally and invade another country, they ought to be able to find the effort to be responsible on the climate issue,” Kerry said.

This is so dumb, it’s hard to know where to go with this post. Does he really think Russia cares about their carbon footprint? Does he really think people would feel better about Russia invading Ukraine?

Speaking of Kerry, here’s what the UK Guardian thinks of America

John Kerry’s recent claim in an interview with the Guardian that the United States is a force for good in tackling the climate crisis, despite soaring growth in fossil fuels, demonstrates that he fundamentally misunderstands the problem (John Kerry: US committed to tackling climate crisis despite fossil fuel growth, 4 March). The International Energy Agency made it clear: to reach net zero by 2050 the world can afford no new fossil fuel expansion. And yet the United States is by far the largest producer of oil and gas in the world – responsible for one in five barrels of oil and gas extracted globally in 2022 – and has the largest plans for fossil fuel expansion in the world.

President Joe Biden’s recent pause on new liquefied natural gas export authorisations is an important step toward reining in expansion. However, the pause does not go far enough to address the massive expansion of fossil fuels in the US causing the climate crisis and serious health and safety impacts on communities living nearby. If the US wants to be the climate leader that Kerry thinks it is, it’s time our leadership takes real action to stop fossil fuel expansion and lead a just transition off fossil fuels.

SF Chronicle Says City Can No Longer Be Called Progressive After Law And Order Measures Passed

By William Teach March 7, 2024 – 10:30 am

Yesterday I wrote in regards to the Politico article on the measures

One of the best parts, though, is that implementing law and order, reducing crime are considered a rightward and conservative shift. So, Democrat policy stands for crime and disorder?

Yes, yes they do

San Francisco ‘can no longer be called progressive city,’ newspaper declares after law-and-order measures pass

surprise surprise surpriseAn article in the San Francisco Chronicle declared the city “can no longer be called a progressive city” after the success of two law-and-order ballot measures on Tuesday.

Chronicle reporters Aldo Toledo and Joe Garofoli wrote that with the city voting “yes” on ballot measures that would require drug screenings for potential welfare recipients and increase police powers in the city, progressive policies appear to no longer be popular with residents.

The first of the two ballot measures, Proposition F, requires drug screening for people receiving public benefits and would force drug addicts to go into treatment if they want to continue receiving those benefits. The second, Proposition E, would give law enforcement better surveillance tools and rein in oversight over the force, allowing looser restrictions on car chases, for example.

The reporters added that, in addition to approving these measures, “voters also backed a slate of moderates to run the local Democratic County Central Committee, whose endorsements could reshape who is elected in San Francisco for years.”

So, yes, crime and disorder is what Progressives stand for, and residents of San Francisco have hit their breaking point with these wackos. I’m surprised it too them this long

The Chronicle noted how some progressives feel they aren’t too devastated by Tuesday’s results, noting that November’s election – where Breed faces challengers to her re-election – will be “a better barometer of San Francisco’s progressivism.”

It detailed how progressives need to “rally behind better solutions when it comes to the problems that voters care about most, like public safety, housing, homelessness and the drug crisis,” and provided examples of prominent progressives strategizing on how to get their messaging straight. The authors also observed, “one message progressives agree on is that they’re in danger.”

Messaging is cute, but, the residents, those who haven’t moved out of San Francisco, have seen the results of the actions for decades as crime skyrocketed, as car breakins and thefts were the norm, as businesses saw constant theft, as businesses closed down, particularly in the downtown area, as people refused to go to certain shopping areas, as homeless raged across the city, as poop, urine, and drug needles were all over. The big wigs who supported all the anti-law and pro-disorder policies tend to live in areas which do not see this and are wealthy enough that the police who haven’t left patrol their neighborhoods in force, and I bet that anyone who commits a crime against the wealthy are prosecuted.

Next up, I can see SF changing policies and allowing law enforcement to work with immigration officials like ICE.

SEC Does Pass Rule Requiring Climate Scam Disclosure

By William Teach March 7, 2024 – 7:00 am

Say, this won’t cause many companies to simply move their registration out of the U.S., would it? Along with all the lawsuits

SEC signs off on landmark climate rule as legal backlash looms

Wall Street’s top regulator green-lighted a groundbreaking rule aimed at uncovering new climate-related information from corporate America, capping a pressure campaign that has fractured Washington for two years.

The Securities and Exchange Commission voted along party lines Wednesday to order thousands of public companies to begin divulging more details about the climate risks they face, the costs of severe weather events and, in some cases, their greenhouse gas emissions. The nearly 900-page rule represents one of the biggest overhauls of U.S. corporate reporting in years and is a legacy-defining effort for SEC Chair Gary Gensler.

Read that again. 900 pages. Anyhow, this massive, intrusive rule was passed by 3 unelected bureaucrats. Does anyone think this was the intention of the Framers? Heck, this is the kind of abuse of power that caused the American Revolution

Despite the rollbacks, the SEC is still facing legal and legislative challenges over the rule. Nine Republican-led states, including West Virginia, unveiled plans to challenge the rule in court just hours after its approval. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce is also considering litigation, and Republicans in Congress are vowing to try to overturn it. The changes in the rule could also fan friction on the left for Gensler’s SEC, with many backers already expressing dismay.

And Democrats are upset that the 3 Democrats on the SEC didn’t go far enough. They wanted more. I have to wonder, how many of them own businesses affected by this rule? The SEC chair, Gary Gensler, appointed by Brandon, along with Caroline Crenshaw and Jaime Lizárraga, all Democrats, barely have any experience in the private sector. Crenshaw is a lawyer, and didn’t run the firm, which wouldn’t be affected by this rule. Lizarraga has zero experience, having always been in government. Gensler worked for Goldman Sachs, which may or may not be affected by the rule. Hard to know when it’s 900 pages.

NY Gov Surges 750 National Guard Troops To Reduce Crime In NYC

By William Teach March 7, 2024 – 6:45 am

This was NYC mayor Eric Adams in January

The mayor had a mantra on Wednesday: crime is down, jobs are up, and tourism is booming. But one thing the NYPD admits it’s struggling with is protecting its own. Assaults on cops have increased dramatically. CBS New York asked the mayor why.

“There’s just an erosion of expectation of authority, this feeling that you don’t have to respect the authority of this city,” Adams said.

And now

Hochul deploys National Guard troops to New York City subway amid rising crime numbers

Following a series of violent incidents in the New York City subway system, Gov. Kathy Hochul on Wednesday announced a new five-point safety plan that includes bringing in hundreds of National Guard troops and adding new security cameras.

Hochul announced that a combined 1,000 personnel — including 750 National Guard troops, along with MTA Police — would be deployed in the subway system to help the NYPD conduct bag checks in an effort to keep weapons off trains.

“Let me just be very, very clear. These brazen, heinous attacks on our subway system will not be tolerated,” Hochul said.

This came in addition to Mayor Eric Adams’ announcement Tuesday to add more police officers and re-institute bag checks.

But, if there’s no expectation of authority, will the same old same old people committing the crimes, causing problems on the subways care about the NG troops? What authority will they have to stop the troublemakers? Can they detain? Will 750 make a difference? Roughly 3.2 million take the subway daily. Will they be in the areas that are known to be problematic?

As for the bag checks

Jones: How will we make sure that the random bag checks don’t become biased?

Mayor Adams: Without a doubt, you know, that’s what I committed my life to with 100 Blacks in Law Enforcement Who Care. I was the one that led the leading voice on stop and frisk reform as well as testified in federal court. And the judge mentioned my name in her ruling against the Police Department based on my testimony.

It’s a random bag check based on the number of people coming through. So, if you are the 10th or the 7th or the 8th person, no matter what your ethnicity is, no matter how you dress, you are the person that’s being checked. And if you don’t want your bag checked, you can turn around and leave the subway system.

The number will be picked daily or so. So, what if you’re searching the bag of the businesswoman all dressed up who there’s a zero expectation of committing a crime or causing an issue? What difference does that make? The police know their areas, know who can be a problem. There are profiles. That’s why law enforcement creates profiles. They create them on past behavior. It’s not perfect. But, it works way more than it fails.

And do not forget that the Democratic Party run city of NY created this situation. And does anyone think the NYPD is all that interested in being proactive when they know the leftist DA’s office will let many go with no bail and maybe no charges?
