Make electricity unreliable and unaffordable and you’ll soon turn your economy to ashes. Australia is on the brink of a major recession, and energy costs are front and centre.
Power prices will jump by 25 to 30% next month following the closure of yet another perfectly operable 2,000MW coal-fired power plant. Since the Federal Government’s Renewable Energy Target was ramped up by the Labor government in 2010, Australians have been hit with double-digit percentage increases in their power bills every year since.
Households are being hammered by rising interest rates and power bills that they simply cannot afford.
Then there are energy-hungry industries, like mineral processing, which are all but done for. Aluminium smelters will be the first to go, wiping out thousands of well-paid jobs in the bargain.
Peta Credlin taps into comments made recently by Peter Day, a director of one of Australia’s last remaining smelters. Day’s brutal analysis:…
The destructive leak of US intelligence documents once again highlights the extent Russia is placing informational warfare front and center in its approach to conflicts of the 21st century. And with questions continuing to circulate about financial ties between Russian interests and many radical green organizations in the US, it’s worth scrutinizing how these groups are adapting their tactics to influence media coverage in an age of unaffordable gas prices and frustration with President Biden’s failed energy policies.
Radical green groups are scooping up reporters to become full-time propagandists for their cause, using their connections and credentials to legitimize false attacks and undermine American energy production. The Associated Press announced a “donation” to fund the salaries of 20 journalists who would push climate change stories. As many media organizations are forced to…
Ignoring the exorbitant costs and the limited resources, the Golden State is plowing ahead with its latest “green” directive.
They say that what happens in California eventually happens everywhere else in America.
Increasingly, that’s becoming really bad news for the rest of us.
For decades now, the Golden State has been perhaps the world’s foremost center of creativity, innovation, and trendsetting. But these days, it seems to be teaching us one How Not To lesson after another. This includes the government’s pipe dream of forcing trucking fleets to go green. We can practically hear an angst-filled voice from the future: It sounded like a good idea at the time.
Imagine electric-powered rigs hauling goods across the country while reducing our carbon footprint. But like most every government mandate, this is another directive that’s too good to be true (or too true to be good)…
The world is going or is crazy! Here in Australia both major parties are woke with a few in the Coalition that are standing strong. However, if anyone in the states or anywhere else, thinks the man in the WH won the 2020 election they are not worth listening to. Sadly, if something doesn’t change there will NEVER be an honest Presidential election again! Anyway, here is another email received this cold Australian Monday morning from Rescue Michigan. Thankfully, there are some folk in Michigan that are standing strong against this Left Marxist Wokness in their state.
‘This week was a game-changer.
When Matt Walsh announced that his documentary, “What Is A Woman?” would be screened for free on Twitter, the platform initially censored it.
It blocked users from liking, retweeting, and even bookmarking the documentary.
Then something happened.
That something, I suspect, is that Elon Musk watched the movie.
Because he then removed all censorship and told every parent to watch it.
It’s now been seen 140 million times, making it perhaps the most watched documentary of all time.
It’s hard to overstate how significant this is, because it absolutely exposes the political movement to make children become transgender.
And this is something that millions of people had no idea was happening.
Now people will know it’s happening everywhere.
As it happens, many of the radical Democrats in Lansing put their names on legislation to allow minors to get gender-mutilating treatment by running away from home.
Time to hold them accountable.
I recently made a hard-hitting flier for one such state representative, Regina Miller, and with my local Republican Party we’ve already started distributing it locally:
Of course, Regina Miller isn’t the only partisan extremist in Lansing.
In the week ahead, we’ll be rolling out a program where you can order these fliers for your state lawmakers from us, or even have them mailed directly to voters in your precincts.
The clowns have taken over the circus and are firmly in charge of energy policy, which in its design and implementation makes a three-ringed circus look like a Benedictine Monastery.
It’s said you shouldn’t put down to conspiracy what can be chalked up to incompetence. Well, with Australian power prices rising at double-digit rates every year since Labor ramped up the Federal government’s Renewable Energy Target in 2009, with a further 25-30% jump in power prices set to bite next month, and with routine power rationing used as ‘demand management’ – whenever wind and solar output collapses coincide with peak demand – it’s starting to look like a grand conspiracy of incompetence. At its head sits Chris Bowen, Labor’s Energy Minister. His take on Australia’s energy crisis is positively delusional.
Rocketing power prices are crushing households and driving businesses to the wall, but Bowen has been pushing the line that his wind and solar…
The public schools, colleges and universities seem to be in the camp of the climate scammers so children must be taught TRUTH by those most responsible for them, the parent!
Journalist Evelyn Pelczar writes that “fear has the power to sway, distort, and rupture the conventions of the human psyche.”
But just as importantly, as Psychology Today contends, “If people didn’t feel fear, they wouldn’t be able to protect themselves from legitimate threats.”
Franklin Roosevelt, in his first inaugural address, told a nation shaken by the Great Depression that, “The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.”
But fear is a driving force in today’s environmental journalism. The use of fear as a motivator is much older than the musings of the late Stephen Schneider, who once urged his green colleagues to “offer up scary scenarios, make simplified dramatic statements, and make little mention of any doubts we may have” to gin up fear and anger over climate change.
It was just two years ago that Gaia coiner James Lovelock observed, “I don’t know…
