Bummer: Majority Of Florida Voters Voted For A Climate Change (scam) Skeptic

By William Teach November 5, 2020 – 8:39 am

People don’t move to Florida because it’s cold, and, I don’t think they really care about the climate crisis scam. Except some media folks

A majority of FL voters chose the presidential candidate who calls climate change a hoax

Despite coastal flooding, more severe hurricanes, and longer, hotter summers attributed to climate change, the majority of Florida voters on Tuesday chose the presidential candidate who calls climate change a hoax.

Florida incumbents in state offices who support efforts to curb climate change fared well enough, according to state election records, but they remain in a minority largely ignored by Republicans who control the House, Senate and governor’s office.

President Donald Trump won Florida by at least 3 percentage points, capturing all 29 electoral college votes.

He and challenger former Vice President Joe Biden espouse widely different views on climate change. Trump long called it a hoax and only recently acknowledged it exists. Biden considers it an urgent matter and made climate change central to his economic recovery plan to convert the nation to green jobs and non-polluting infrastructure.

He called anthropogenic climate change a scam. I don’t agree with his ideas on why it is a scam (China), but, it is a scam. How much of the uptick in heat in Florida is caused by land use and the Urban Heat Island Effect, along with natural variability, and how much because Warmists working for news outlets drive fossil fueled vehicles? None of the NOAA Florida stations show anything more than what would be expected during a normal Holocene warm period.

At the state level, one of Florida’s leading climate activists, Democratic Sen. Jose Javier Rodriguez, is in a nail-biter race likely to be decided after a recount. With 215,411 votes counted, Republican challenger Ileana Garcia led Rodriguez by just 21 votes, with provisional ballots and ballots mailed from overseas yet to be counted. A third candidate, Alex Rodriguez, running under no party affiliation, garnered 6,366 of those votes.

Since being elected in 2016, Sen. Rodriguez has worn rain boots in the Capitol emblazoned with the hashtag #ActOnClimateFL to rally support for action to slow down climate change that is causing seas to rise, flooding coastal areas of south Florida.

So, the climate cultist is having trouble being re-elected? Huh.

Defeated was Congresswoman Debbie Mucarsel-Powell, a Monroe County Democrat who championed conversion of the Sunshine State to a green, non-polluting economy that would slow sea level rise and the intensification of hurricanes affecting her constituents.

Love to know how she’s going to stop hurricanes.

Moncrief said Florida voters, left to their own devices, consistently vote to protect their environment. She pointed to six local environmental protection measures approved by voters Tuesday in Collier, Manatee, Orange and Volusia counties and the election of two climate activists to local offices in South Florida in the midst of a red wave for candidates in that region. But faced with outside money and influence in state and federal races, Florida-based environmental concerns get overshadowed, she said.

Suddenly Democrats are concerned with outside money?

Even If Biden Manages To Steal Election, Democrats Will Regret It

By William Teach November 5, 2020 – 8:12 am

Would it be theft if soon-to-be-25th-Amendmented-and-replaced-with-Harris Joe Biden wins? Maybe? We see all the irregularities, and virtually none in the Credentialed Media are bothering to investigate. Heck, most who mention them are providing cover with Excuses. Miranda Devine has thoughts

Biden may steal an election for the elitists, but Democrats will regret it: Devine

Let’s be real. Goliath was never going to let David breeze through the rematch.

The provinces, for whom President Trump is an instrument, not an end in himself, were never going to have an easy time winning the 2020 election against the amassed might of the Democratic Party, the “Fake News” media and allied pollsters, Big Tech, woke billionaires and the celebrity class, who united to stamp out the barbarian orange emperor.

The “chumps” and “ugly folk,” as Joe Biden calls them, came out in their glorious millions from the American heartland on Election Day and now we will see if people power prevails, if the nationalist populist movement enabled by Donald Trump, but not defined by him, lives to fight another day against the corrupt globalists represented by the sad husk of Biden.

It boils down to Trump’s belief that the Democrats perpetrated widespread voter fraud in Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin and elsewhere to steal the election.

That can’t be real, could it?

In a press conference in Philadelphia Wednesday, Giuliani laid out one clear anomaly in which, contrary to Pennsylvania law, Republican election observers were denied the right to oversee the counting of 120,000 ballots by being forced to stand 20 to 30 feet away from where they were being counted.

“They were never able to see the ballot itself, never able to see if it was properly postmarked, properly addressed, properly signed on the outside . . . this went on for 20 hours. While all of you thought there was some kind of legitimate count going on here in Philadelphia, it was totally illegitimate.”

Giuliani’s team has also launched a lawsuit in Wisconsin where he says that, after election observers had gone home, “at 3 or 4 in the morning about 120,000 ballots appeared . . . and they all got counted.”

The Trump campaign also filed a lawsuit in Michigan Wednesday, with campaign manager Bill Stepien claiming Republican observers were denied “meaningful access to numerous counting locations to observe the opening of ballots and the counting process, as guaranteed by Michigan law.”

How about workers in Detroit covering the windows while counting absentee ballots? 23,277 votes being discovered in Philly, with zero going to Trump. That’s statistically impossible. We have late counted ballots, ballot harvesting, reports of late arriving ballots being counted, improperly cast ballots. Damn right Trump should fight, this is a serious game. If some in the GOP want to go squishy, let them. Democrats know the game is hardcore, many in the GOP don’t get it.

But even if Trump does lose, it may be a blessing in disguise for Republicans.

The result has crushed Democratic expectations of a clean sweep. It wasn’t a landslide win against an unpopular president, as we had been told so confidently for months.

If Biden wins, it will be by the narrowest margin.

Republicans are going to hang on to the Senate

The fatal miscalculations of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi in cynically refusing to negotiate on the latest stimulus bill has cost the Democrats dearly in the House, where they have gone backward by at least six seats. They did not manage to get rid of a single Republican. So much for the blue wave.

Oops

The Democrats won’t be able to pack the Supreme Court, abolish the Electoral College or make DC and Puerto Rico states. They will struggle to impose the Green New Deal.

Unfortunately, nothing can be done to stop a President Biden-Harris repeat of the geopolitical errors of the Obama presidency, such as appeasing China and Iran’s mullahs and signing onto the Paris climate accord.

But a President Biden in cognitive decline will sooner or later be replaced by his unpopular, untested vice president, Kamala Harris.

Here’s the thing: will the House Dems and/or Biden-Harris push the hardcore agenda? They know it won’t pass. But, it could expose their agenda. Joe can rejoin the Paris Climate (scam) accord if he wants, but, he won’t get the appropriations for the cash redistribution. Or anything else.

Saddled with a recession and policies that will only exacerbate economic decline, the next four years will hobble Democrats.

Here’s a big question: does the economy continue rising once Trump’s gone, or does the stock market and economy get bearish, as Biden/Harris yammer about taxes and restrictions and such, doing some through regulation, with a concern that Dems take the Senate in 2022?

Oregon Voted To Decriminalize All Drugs

By William Teach November 4, 2020 – 7:37 pm

What could possibly go wrong with this?

Oregon becomes first US state to decriminalize possession of hard drugs

A nationwide push to relax drug laws scored significant victories on Tuesday as four states voted to legalize marijuana, and Oregon became the first state to decriminalize the possession of small amounts of hard drugs.

Voters in Arizona, Montana, New Jersey and South Dakota passed state ballot measures to legalize recreational cannabis use, major victories in the movement to undo the harms of cannabis criminalization.

And in Oregon, voters made history by passing the first state law in the US to decriminalize possession of hard drugs including heroin, cocaine and LSD. The measure backed by criminal justice reform groups is aimed at diverting people from jails and prisons by treating possession as a citation and expanding access to treatment and recovery.

Made history. Interestingly, it wasn’t “made history” here in North Carolina when we got the first Black Lieutenant Governor. Because Mark Robinson is a Republican. Anyhow, it’s nice to try and help the drugees by going for treatment rather than jail, but, really, this will just mean more people doing drugs and more smuggling. The road to hell is paved with good intentions, and we know that this is going to make the cities in Oregon, especially Portland and the other bigger cities, even more dangerous.

Meanwhile, some other interesting ballot initiatives

  • People are apparently going to be able to get state offered psychedelic mushrooms in Oregon
  • California will be adding even more taxes on commercial and industrial properties to “pay for education” wink wink
  • Though, California did shoot down getting rid of cash bail
  • Michigan will require a warrant for an electronic search (see this link for this and the rest, more I’m not mentioning)
  • Kentucky added victim’ rights to their constitution
  • Utah apparently allowed slavery/servitude as punishment, which has now been ended

A big one which is surprisingly rather low-key is from Louisiana

Louisiana voters have approved an amendment to the state constitution that makes clear the document does not grant the right to an abortion.

The question before voters Tuesday was whether to explicitly state that “a right to abortion and the funding of abortion shall not be found in the Louisiana Constitution.”

Obviously, the “murder the unborn because you were too lazy to have responsible, protected sex” crowd will sue.

Bat Soup Virus, Climate Crisis (scam), And Fascist Government

By William Teach November 4, 2020 – 5:28 pm

I couldn’t rightly just slap Rupert Darwall’s headline up as mine, right? Mine’s just a bit more specific

Covid, Climate Change, and Government Coercion

Covid-19 has seen democratic governments exercising coercive powers over their citizens on a scale never imagined. Their justification: Your freedom is someone else’s risk of catching a potentially fatal disease. Having deployed the instruments of social control, politicians and government bureaucrats won’t quietly put them away when the crisis passes – not when other opportunities exist to wield their newfound powers.

Consider, for example, a similar justification for state coercion on environmental protection: Your carbon footprint is my climate change.

The link between Covid control measures and climate change has already been made by the head of Britain’s Committee on Climate Change, a body established in 2008 to hold the government accountable for meeting net-zero emissions targets. (Joe Biden has pledged a similar “enforcement mechanism” by the end of his first term.) “The government has stepped in in a quite extraordinary way to our way of life,” committee chief executive Chris Stark says.

In a powerful philippic against government-by-Covid-decree, Lord Sumption, a former justice on the British Supreme Court, observed that fear has always been the most potent instrument of the authoritarian state. “Fear was deliberately stoked up by the government: the language of impending doom; the daily press conferences; the alarmist projections of mathematical modelers; the manipulative use of selected statistics.”

This is the Doomsday Cult of Climastrology: always attempting to scare people into compliance. Hilariously, none of the disciples ever seem to realize that this stuff will apply to their own lives. That’s what indoctrination does. They’ll be real surprised when it hits their own lives. They’ll be real surprised when they realize their lives will be controlled just like during lockdown.

I’ll let you read all the middle stuff, up to the ending

And here we see the common theme between Covid and climate change. Thanks to the virus, governments now know that they can impose draconian restrictions on their citizens. “The government has discovered the power of public fear to let it get its way,” Sumption argues. Net-zero will shrink people’s choices and curtail the lives they wish to lead. Consider Covid a warning of what might yet come.

This is, quite frankly, what I’ve been saying since the early 2000’s, when I realized I had been duped and that this was not about science but control. And they know they can get away with it. My goodness, look at Michigan. Despite the massive crackdown on the citizens by their Democratic Party governor, plus doing nothing about the riots, the state is leaning Democrat right now for the returns. Not just Biden over Trump, but Peters over James in the Senate Race. Of course, a lot of that is being driven by 6 out of 14 districts, the big urban area ones. 13 (Rashida Tlaib’s district, full of transplants who like authoritarian government) and 14 are up around 77% to 19%. We should start by implementing hardcore climate restrictions in places like that. These people seem to love authoritarianism.

Maxine Waters Says She’ll Never Forgive Black Trump Voters

By William Teach November 4, 2020 – 10:30 am

When will blacks finally realize that the Democratic Party thinks they own black, but only care when elections come up

Herschel Walker Blasts Maxine Waters for Saying She’ll Never Forgive Black Trump Voters

Former NFL star Herschel Walker has criticized congresswoman Maxine Waters (D-CA) for saying she would “never forgive” Black Americans who voted for Donald Trump.

Earlier this week, Waters told The Joe Madison Show on SiriusXM she was flabbergasted by the prospect of Black voters backing the incumbent Republican.

“It just hurts me so bad to see Blacks talking about supporting Trump. I don’t know why they would be doing it. I don’t know why it is on their minds,” she said.

“For those Black young men who think somehow they can align themselves with Trump, not only are they terrible mistaken, any of them showing their face, I will never, ever forgive them for undermining the possibility to help their own people and their own communities.”

They think they own you, black folks. Remember, Waters doesn’t even live in her district, a district rife with poverty, homelessness, and urban blight. She’s lives in a nice area, living high on the hog with all the graft money she’s made being an elected Representative.

Walker, a long-time friend of Trump, hit back at Waters’ comments, suggesting the reason parts of the Black electorate were shifting towards Trump was they felt let down by Democratic administrations at both federal and state levels.

“She’s been in office for a long, long time. Have you seen her pass any laws for social justice? Have you seen her pass anything to make anything equal? I don’t want to hear them [the Democrats] putting the blame on anyone else,” he said during an appearance on FOX Business’ Varney & Co. on Election Day.

“Now she is upset that people are starting to educate themselves and see policies that fit them. […] So don’t come here to me with this rhetoric right now.

“I want people to realize that the person that should be in office is someone who cares about America, someone who cares about the people and someone who’s not going to try to put money in his pockets but put it in the people’s pockets.”

At the end of the day, the Trump polices have been very good for blacks, and he treats them like people, not a voting block of faceless people. On that note, Trump should have spent more time telling people this, along with his other accomplishments, rather than battling with the media and others so much.

You Should Totally Be Worrying About The Systemic Death Of The Earth

By William Teach November 4, 2020 – 7:46 am

Is it any wonder that so many climate cultists, especially the under 25 crowd, are mental messes, when they keep trotting out apocalyptic prognostications and articles?

Decoding Climate Change: Why You Should Worry About Earth’s Systematic Death

“2020 is on course to become the warmest year” revealed one of the studies reported by the World Economic Forum (WEF). It pointed out that the first nine months of the year witnessed record concentrations of major greenhouse gases – carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide in the atmosphere. These gases accounted for over 80% rise in global surface temperature altering Earth’s climate.

Yeah, by perhaps a tenth of a degree, but, according to Warmists, this is all driven by CO2. CO2 was way down around the globe due to Coronavirus lockdowns. So, why did that not make a difference? Don’t bother asking for a scientific explanation, they’ll just give you Excuses.

This conspicuous change in our planet’s climate is also believed to be the cause of an increase in sea level, a substantial decrease in the arctic ice, and rising cases of weather-related catastrophes including floods, earthquakes, and droughts.

Only thing they left out were volcanoes and cold weather, which are often included.

Although it is certain that Earth has naturally warmed up and got colder over the course of billions of years, such transition cycles have always been much slower, taking millions of years, whereas now, within a period of just 200 years, the planet is advancing towards extinction levels.

Except, we’ve seen quick cycles for warming and cooling during the Holocene, some warmer than the current warm period. We’re in a slight warming period, not a really hot one. Hot ones which life on Earth survived and flourished.

Palaeontologist and conservationist Richard Leakey warned that human activity is paving way for a “sixth extinction”. Right now, reports have highlighted that the planet is experiencing a ‘biodiversity crisis’ that could put up to a million species of plants and animals at risk.

Activities like deforestation, poaching, industrialisation, burning of fossil fuels, population explosion, greenhouse gas emission, and plastic pollution are some of the major reasons for human-caused climate change.

The doom of the article didn’t quite live up to the hype of the headline. Let’s learn about the author

Palak Agrawal is a journalism graduate believes in simplifying the complicated and writing about the extraordinary lives of ordinary people. She calls herself a ” hodophile” or in layman words- a person who loves to travel.

Oh, so the Warmist blaming fossil fuels for climate change loves to travel? Huh.

State Of The Race: Race Hinges On Four States

By William Teach November 4, 2020 – 7:28 am

Did you stay up all night waiting? I didn’t bother, since I just knew we were not going to get a call. Democrats thought they were going to get a blowout. Not quite. I wonder why?

Economy Is By Far America’s Top Issue, CNN Exit Poll Shows

A plurality of Americans say that the economy is the top issue for their vote, according to a CNN exit poll released Tuesday night.

CNN said that 34 percent of voters named the economy as their top issue.

Racial inequality was a distant second with 21 percent. Coronvirus was third, with 18 percent. “Crime and Safety” and “Health Care Policy” each garnered 11 percent.

The economy was doing quite well before it was tanked by the Chinese originating COVID19, and Democratic governors and mayors did not help by going crazy with their lockdowns.

‘I Am Optimistic’: Biden Claims He Is ‘On Track’ To Win Election

Democratic Presidential nominee Joe Biden told a crowd of supporters Tuesday night that he believes that he is “on track” to win the presidential election.

“We feel good about where we are. We really do,” Biden told a crowd of supporters at his campaign headquarters in Wilmington, Delaware. “I am here to tell you tonight, we believe we’re on track to win this election.”

“We knew because of the unprecedented early vote and the mail-in vote, it was going to take a while” to know the results of the election, the former Vice President added. “We were going have to be patient until the hard work of tallying the votes is finished.”

In other words, he’s hoping cheat by mail comes through

Trump claims victory with many states still undeclared, hints at possible Supreme Court case

President Trump declared victory in multiple key battleground states early Wednesday, even though it remained unclear who had the votes to win, as Trump hinted the White House would push the Supreme Court to rule over disputed ballots, warning that a “very sad group of people” was trying to “disenfranchise” voters.

The president, speaking from the East Room of the White House, alongside first lady Melania Trump, Vice President Mike Pence and second lady Karen Pence, thanked his supporters and touted “record” turnout.

“I want to thank the American people for their tremendous support. Millions and millions of people voted for us tonight and a very sad group of people is trying to disenfranchise that group of people and we will not stand for it,” Trump said. “We won’t stand for it.”

Jen O’Malley Dillon, Joe Biden’s campaign manager, said in a statement that Trump “does not decide the outcome of this election. Joe Biden does not decide the outcome of this election. The American people decide the outcome of this election. And the democratic process must and will continue until its conclusion.”

So, both are claiming a win, and both are saying to keep patient. Though Trump isn’t as enthused with cheat by mail.

But, a number of key battleground states, including Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan, Georgia and North Carolina, were too close to call.

The big one is Pennsylvania. It has 20 electoral college votes. Arizona is trending Biden with Trump down 3.4% with 84% reporting. Trump can only afford to lose one of the above states. He has a slight lead in all but Wisconsin, where he is down .7% with 95% reporting.

Nevada, though, is also still in play, which is unusual. It’s real close, with Biden up just .6% with 75% reporting. It has 6 EC votes. Perhaps all those who were laid off/lost their jobs/lost their money who work in Las Vegas and Reno might lean towards Trump who wanted them open.

Trump added that he predicted a legal battle, and said he has “been saying this since the day I heard there would be tens of millions of ballots sent,” referring to the unprecedented scale of mail-in voting amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Team Biden is doing the same thing. Now it’s just a matter of how long it takes to count the mail ins, followed by suits from either side depending on how states go. Gird your loins, folks.

Good News: US Involvement In Paris Climate Agreement (scam) Ends At Midnight

By William Teach November 3, 2020 – 3:00 pm

Of course, did it really matter if we were in it or not? All actions were utterly voluntary, including sending no-strings attached climate reparations to 3rd World Nations. That’s one of the big ways Obama avoided taking it to the U.S. Senate for ratification. And, those nations who are still super excited about it aren’t really implementing it

US participation in Paris climate deal expires at midnight

Regardless of how Election Day turns out for President Trump and Joe Biden, the US will no longer be a part of the Paris climate deal as of midnight, according to a report.

Trump withdrew the US from the global accord on July 1, 2017, but the rules of the deal stipulated that any country wanting to pull out would have to wait three years from Nov. 4, 2016 – the day it became international law, Politico reported Monday.

The US officially filed its separation documents last Nov. 4, and the one-year cooling off period expires at midnight.

The State Department will not take an active part in United Nations’ meetings on the climate deal, but it will remain an observer.

The Paris Climate Accord, signed by 197 countries, created a goal to halt warming “well below” 2 degrees Celsius and try to maintain it at 1.5 degrees by cutting greenhouse gas emissions.

Of those 197 nations, the ones which are supposed to actually cut their “carbon pollution” and send lots of money to other nations have, at best, pledges. And many climate cultists (who haven’t made their own lives net zero) complain they are not strong enough. The ones getting the free, unfettered, no-strings attached money (because they feel that 1st world nations owe them) are keeping their bargain, by taking the cash they get, but, they aren’t getting all the want, so they complain.

Being in or out makes no difference. If Warmists want leadership from the U.S., maybe they should follow along that we won’t destroy our economy, freedom, liberty, nor choice for a cult, and they can do the same. Or, they could demand that Believers practice what they preach.
