"The way I see it, we have two choices: we can increase our reliance on bad actors for the energy we need or we can unleash the abundant natural resources available here in the United States." 

 

– Rep. Troy Balderson (R-OH)

The debt ceiling needs to be increased so Special K can give his buddies in the CCP the trillions they're due for "retooling" America.


CNN (5/12/23) reports: "As the US barrels into a high-stakes and consequential election cycle, US climate envoy and former Secretary of State John Kerry is confident of one thing: If a Republican is elected president, they won’t be able to reverse the Biden administration’s wins on climate change and clean energy. The economy has so drastically and fundamentally changed in the past several years, Kerry argued – spurred in large part by the Democrats’ climate and energy law passed last year – that the markets would reject a challenge to the nation’s clean energy trajectory. 'I don’t think anybody elected president – Republican, Democrat, liberal, conservative – could change what is happening today,' President Joe Biden’s top climate diplomat told CNN in a candid and wide-ranging interview in his State Department office. “The power of the marketplace is bigger than the presidency on (climate change) now,” Kerry said. 'So much money has been invested in retooling and redirecting business strategies and investments.'"

Trillions in "green" pay offs to blend up millions of birds.

The regulations are impossible to meet by design, not an accident.


Time (5/11/23) reports: "A  certain irony has threaded its way through the endless rulemaking filings, legal challenges, and political vicissitudes of the decades-long fight to stop U.S. fossil fuel power plants from spewing carbon dioxide emissions into the air. A recent example is last year’s Supreme Court West Virginia v E.P.A. ruling. At the time, it was widely seen as a serious blow to the Biden Administration’s ambitions to cut power sector emissions. Now, the agency is using the parameters set by that ruling to pound an industry responsible for 25% of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions once more. The Supreme Court’s ruling blocked the EPA from forcing power sector emitters to switch to clean energy, saying instead the agency could only mandate emissions cuts based on technology that could be deployed “within the fenceline” of power facilities themselves. This morning, the EPA unveiled a new rule that would do just that, requiring most coal and natural gas power plants to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 90% by 2040. Where the previous mandates were based on so-called “generation shifting” as the best available means of power plants reducing emissions—i.e. shutting down and building renewables instead—the new emission reduction rules are based on the capabilities of technology such as carbon capture and storage (CCS) that companies could deploy on the grounds of their power facilities themselves.
