De-Growth Department Of Energy

If any politician in this country is a Russian asset, it’s Joe Biden and the de-growth global warming nuts who control him. In the Biden Administration, the Dept. of Energy isn’t about getting cheap, plentiful, and clean energy. It’s about “Addressing the effects of climate change.”

Why else would he reverse US energy independence while lifting sanctions on Russia’s Nord Stream 2 pipeline, forcing us to buy oil from Russia and unfriendly states in the Middle East and Communist Venezuela, begging OPEC to increase their production?

But that’s not enough for Joe Biden. Contrary to its purpose, he wants to use the strategic reserves as a response to high prices at the pump. So if and when time comes that we actually need the strategic reserves, we won’t have them and will still be beholden to the same communist regimes for energy.

Current authorized capacity of the SPR (Strategic Petroleum Reserve) is 714 million barrels.  In 2019 there were 634.9 million barrels in reserve. Today, that is down to 568 million barrels. A decrease of 10% from 2019 with no plans to replenish, and a 20% decrease from authorized capacity.

Putin couldn’t have done a better job of weakening our country and national security. For that, Biden gets a Happy Face from Vlad. And the global warming nuts are all warm and fuzzy. Because for them increasing oil production is a good thing as long as we don’t do it ourselves.

This is what fundamental change in America is shaping up to be as long as the Left and spineless Democrats are in the majority.

America last deal

Democrats are on a suicide mission for this country. It’s called the Green New Deal.  Joe Biden said his economic legislation, “the first piece, the 1.9, fundamentally change the structure and nature of the economy in this country.”  He didn’t run on that and Americans didn’t vote for that. To say he is in China’s back pocket would be an understatement. Details begin at 11 minutes in the video.
 
 
First in the plan is to end the use of fossil fuels, which happens to be the lifeblood of the world’s economy and our own.
 
Then make all transportation run on batteries. Car manufacturing as we know it ends.
 
What country in the world has 80% of the resources to make batteries? China. And China just added, thanks to Joe Biden, the lithium mines in Afghanistan to their battery elements inventory. Think of it as a going away present from Joe and Hunter.
 
The United States doesn’t have enough of the resources to be self-sufficient in battery power. But we do in fossil fuels, with an economy built on it.
 
How does it feel to be beholden to China? China plays the long game. Now you know why Xi Jinping is always smiling. He would have the United States by its throat.

Never forget

While the nation mourns and honors the casualties and first responders in the 9/11 attack, let us also honor the service and sacrifice of the four casualties in the second 9/11 attack. Benghazi in 2012.
 
Amb. Christopher Stevens, State Information Officer Sean Smith, and Navy Seals Glen Doherty and Tyrone S. Woods.
 
The Senate Select Committee’s Benghazi Report makes clear that the deaths of Amb. Christopher Stevens, State Information Officer Sean Smith, and Navy Seals Glen Doherty and Tyrone S. Woods could have been prevented on the day of the attack.
 
Never forget the lies from Susan Rice, Hillary Clinton, and Barack Obama.  Speaking of lying politicians, Joe Biden is now carrying that torch.

sleeping on the job

“Joe Biden is asleep. Literally. If there was any doubt, he laid it to rest on Saturday, as he quite obviously tried to sneak in a nap while meeting with Israel’s new prime minister Naftali Bennett.

The Israeli Prime Minister Naftali looked directly at the U.S. President as if in disbelief while continuing to talk. This is hardly desirable optics for a Commander-in-Chief who looks like he would be more comfortable in a nursing home than in a war room.

America’s allies are now beginning to talk openly about a weak U.S. president that is letting down its partners and commitments around the world.”

When is Congress going to step up and do something about it? America is less safe with this Biden Administration.

Politics

Not hypocrites

To say that politicians like Cori Bush, Harris, Biden, and the Squad are hypocrites on fundamental matters like law enforcement, illegal immigration, private property rights, 1A and 2A is really to give them a pass on their intent. 
 
By calling them a “hypocrite” presumes they are on the same side as you, but just selfish in their motive. The sooner the people realize that they don’t believe in America, and are out to destroy it, the sooner everyone will know them for what they are. Not hypocrites, but Marxists. American Marxists.

Democrats, and The march to marxism

1 Comment

The shift to Marxism, or in President Obama’s words, fundamentally changing America, can’t happen in any honest manner with the consent of the American people. But it’s happening nonetheless, thanks to Nancy Pelosi and her soul brothers in the House by including it all in a Budget Resolution with zero transparency. And it’s full speed ahead for as long as they have control of Congress and The White House.

The borders are open (Cuba excepted) for two reasons. First of which is to chang the demographics of the country. 

Because of the Lat-crit theory, born of Critical Race Theory, the second purpose is to say that if you are an American citizen, and you are not a Latino American citizen, or of Slaves or Black American citizen, then the whole notion of American citizenship is bogus. The whole notion of the United States is bogus. This is a fraudulent country, that was imposed on the indigenous people of the Americas by White Protestant Europeans. So it’s impossible to have illegal immigration with an open border. And if you protest or disagree, and don’t like an open border, then you are a contributor to the White dominant society, and dismissed. It’s what Marxists do.  

That, and the Democrats obtain a permanent majority. By destroying the Separation of Powers, by destroying Checks and Balances, by destroying and nationalizing the voting system, by having the borders wide open, they will change the citizenry, they will change the demographics, they will change what voting means, and they will change federalism into nationalism. All that, with no debate, no transparency to the citizenry, stuffed into a budget resolution. That’s just how evil Pelosi and her Democrat colleagues are.

No Infrastructure For You

Ever since President Carter’s creation of the Department of Energy in 1977, the purpose of which was to become energy independent.  It was a total failure. Not until 2019 in the Trump Administration did the country reach energy independence, where production exceeds consumption, for the first time in 62 years.

That was a time when the economy experienced an economic slowdown, gas prices were rising, gas stations were running out of gas, and the ones that had gas had lines going down the street. The Unites States was at the mercy of foreign countries for oil because we didn’t have enough supply of our own.  People referred to the economy back than as the Carter Malaise.  News organizations were polling and reporting what they called the “Misery Index” on a daily basis.

That President Trump could do this in only 3 years says a lot about the Washington insiders and bureaucrats that, by their actions, or in this case, in-action, could not do. The same politicians who go bonkers come election time, always wanting to spend (they call invest) billions and trillions of dollars in RBI, Roads, Bridges, and Infrastructure. (Joe Biden was in charge of doing just that under President Obama. Remember the “shovel ready” joke?) Should be obvious by now that they didn’t mean a word they said.

The irony in President Biden putting the kibosh on the most important infrastructure project in our time, that truly made us energy independent, somehow (not really) escapes notice in the media.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Media, Politics, Race Relations

Systemic crime

The Left (Democrats/Media), are amplifying “systemic racism” in the country. Since its founding no less. Weird how they just started pushing that narrative when President Trump first ran and won, and not before. 

Playing the Race Card is where they go when they’re out of ideas, or, to distract from real problems facing the country. 

If there’s anything “systemic” going on that needs to be addressed, it’s the systemic violence in Democrat-run cities. The riots, the murders, the shootings, the robberies, the rapes, the no-go zones, the guns, and the drugs. And this has not existed since the country’s founding.

It started when Law Enforcers suddenly became the bad guys, and criminals the victims. Credit The Community Organizer and President of the United States, Barack Hussein Obama, and “his wing-man” Eric Holder for that. He started it. D’s and the media embraced the narrative. And we are where we are today because of it. 

Politically, it serves their agenda better to blame the opposition Party with the Race Card, than to own up to their failures and get right with enforcing laws everywhere. Protecting people everywhere. Spinning systemic racism like they do is only killing more of the Americans they pretend to represent. But to Democrats, if it means keeping political power, it’s worth it. Or to put it another way, for Democrats, Black lives really don’t matter.

Where’s the commission?

Nobody incited an insurrection in Washington, DC 1/6/21. That’s a big lie, day in and day out. An insurrection without a single weapon. An insurrection when Capitol Police are opening the doors and letting people in.
 
This is just the replacement narrative for Trump/Russia collusion. An attempt at making sure Trump does not return to politics because they know they’re done if he does. That’s all this Big Lie is about. Since this Commission has subpoena power and public hearings, the media will be fed a daily dose of bull Schiff attacking Trump, his business, and . . . you.
 
So, where are the Commissions to investigate Antifa and Black Lives Matter and the 2 billion dollars of damage they’ve created in this country? The police officers who they’ve assaulted and in some cases killed in this country. The civilians who they’ve assaulted and in some cases killed in this country. The small business people they’ve put out of work. Where are the Commissions?
 
Where are the Commissions for the attack on The White House when Donald Trump was president?
 
Where are the Commissions for three months of nightly attacks on a Federal Court House in Portland, Oregon?
 
Where are the Commissions for the lawlessness and anarchy on our Southern Border, at the affirmative direction of the President of the United States, as he’s done nothing to stop it?
 
Where’s the Commission, when Chuck Schumer threatened two Supreme Court Justices a year and a half ago?
 
Where’s the Commission, when Nancy Pelosi incited attacks on Federal Law Enforcement Officers by calling then Storm Troopers?
 
Where are the Commissions for them? That there are none tells you all you need to know about what motivates Pelosi, Schumer, and their ilk.

Hope & Change 2.0


The contempt, animosity, and disrespect Democrats show the American people is astounding and unbelievable.
 
Nancy Pelosi says you have to pass the bill to see what’s in it. And we did. That was Obamacare and the destruction of the private healthcare industry, discontinued policies and doctors, and increased costs and deductions.
 
Joe Biden just had a campaign whose platform was pretty much unknown. It didn’t become clear until his first day in office. America had to elect him to see what his policies would be. And we did. 
 
That’s twice the American people made a terrible mistake. A mistake in trusting what they say, and putting faith in them doing the right thing when they won’t say.
 
If candidate Joe Biden campaigned on “I’ll kill Keystone XL, open the borders, and give millions of ILLEGAL ALIENS citizenship and welfare,” Trump would be in his second consecutive term.
 
They are a sick, dishonest, and unholy bunch that must be defeated at the ballot box in 2022.
