More climate hoax

It's pathetic.  We're talking super-cult levels at this point.

Literally everything bad in the world is blamed on climate change, without any actual hard science supporting it 99% of the time.

Latest polling has Dems and Repubs in a virtual dead heat on the generic ballot.

It will be interesting to see if this polling is accurate.  Because the numbers didn't move in the month or two after the Roe v. Wade leak, and barely moved in the weeks immediately after the decision was formally announced.

Dems and pubs may be even but throw on the independent vote and it’s over.

No way Dems win anything.

In other words, Ds will wind up the winner.

He’s mastered macroeconomics, I’m sure he’s cornered statistics as well.

Boston to bar fossil fuel usage in new structures

Drawing on a provision in a Massachusetts climate change bill recently signed into law, Boston will seek to prohibit the use of fossil fuels in all new buildings and major renovations. "Boston's participation will help deliver healthy, energy efficient spaces that save our residents and businesses on utilities costs and create local green jobs that will fuel our economy for decades," said Mayor Michelle Wu.

I think that law will hit cost of home ownership (and rents) two ways:

1) New construction gets a lot more expensive, if it's even possible to build a home in Boston that runs completely on solar

2) The subsequent reduction in new housing starts constrains supply, which makes everything more expensive [see San Francisco]

These laws are absolutely dumb.  There's no evidence remotely justifying draconian mitigation efforts.

Your quarterly reminder that we have an under incarceration problem. Definitely not the fault of the left. They’re also still trying to groom children, but since most of you don’t have kids you think it’s fine.

It's you making a passive-aggressive point.  CNN is biased.  We get it as you have been presenting here ad naseam for 10+ years.  


Still waiting for an answer as to when our country will officially go under and where exactly we are on the slope heading toward that.

It wasn't really about CNN, it was about the climate whackos in general and how they have been wrong for decades amidst all their hysteria. 


Glad you're thinking about the slope.  


Best of luck.

We know how you feel about climate change.  


As for the slope, well it sounds like a right wing radio personality who’s always got these cryptic warnings that never get specific and keep listeners like you in a constant state of anger.
