monitoring Trump and relevant contemporary events

Say goodbye to the power of the Democrat party. Not sure if it will mean the same thing for the Republicans.

Politics in America is on the cusp of change.

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) will headline a major progressive conference later this spring that aims to galvanize the resistance to President Donald Trump into a larger movement for a just world.

Are Bobbies on the beat even allowed to carry guns in Britain? I know they never used to.

I wonder if they'll raise the threat level back up? Probably not.

About a week ago, you said here that almost all media is owned by one person. That's false and it is easy to show it as false. But I'm curious as to what notion is in your noggin here and the source(s) you relied on to conclude it so.

Could you please clarify?

Those divisions did not happen by themselves. Republican lawmakers were moved along by a campaign carefully crafted by fossil fuel industry players, most notably Charles D. and David H. Koch, the Kansas-based billionaires who run a chain of refineries (which can process 600,000 barrels of crude oil per day) as well as a subsidiary that owns or operates 4,000 miles of pipelines that move crude oil.

‘The Turning Point’

It was called the “No Climate Tax” pledge, drafted by a new group called Americans for Prosperity that was funded by the Koch brothers. Its single sentence read: “I will oppose any legislation relating to climate change that includes a net increase in government revenue.” Representative Jim Jordan, Republican of Ohio, was the first member of Congress to sign it in July 2008.

...With the help of a small army of oil-industry-funded academics like Wei-Hock Soon of Harvard Smithsonian and think tanks like the Competitive Enterprise Institute, they had been working to discredit academics and government climate change scientists. The lawyer and conservative activist Chris Horner, whose legal clients have included the coal industry, gathered documents through the Freedom of Information Act to try to embarrass and further undermine the climate change research.

Myron Ebell, a senior fellow with the Competitive Enterprise Institute, worked behind the scenes to make sure Republican offices in Congress knew about Mr. Horner’s work — although at the time, many viewed Mr. Ebell skeptically, as an extremist pushing out-of-touch views.

LONDON CITIZENS Had to THROW CHAIRS at Terrorists Because UNARMED POLICE RAN AWAY

Guardian reporter Lisa O’Carroll is at Borough Market, where she says multiple stabbings have been reported:

Witnesses said they saw two men stabbing people outside the well-known Roast restaurant in Borough market. A chef from the nearby Fish restaurant said: “I saw two guys with big knives downstairs outside Roast. They were stabbing people. The police were running away, they were community police. They were normal officers, they were running away.

The end result of a forced transfer to electric cars if renewables can't handle the load, and if nuclear is blocked and fracked natural gas is blocked, is going to be cars powered by coal-generated electricity.

That would be short-sighted — stupid, even — but the market doesn't work that way.

Ah, the Omniscient One!

Some only call for stricter controls on tailpipe emissions, others look to the development of alternative fuels.

Personally, I'd like to see the true cost of waste management built into the model of industrial production.

Citation?

This sounds more ideology-driven than environment-driven to me.

Seems just as easy to build windmills in those countries as it is to build coal power plants.

It isn't.

Snopes is not a fair or unbiased source for anything, they are another arm of the DNC.

Patrol officers are still not allowed to carry guns. But they have what an American would call SWAT teams on standby ready to deploy if called upon. And these are just as heavily armed as any American SWAT team.

Perhaps she had been reading your propaganda about Sinclair Media. She may also de deficient in recognizing your role as schoolmaster here.

"Propaganda" doesn't mean what you think it means.

...The report finds that climate change is a security risk, Pentagon officials said, because it degrades living conditions, human security and the ability of governments to meet the basic needs of their populations. Communities and states that already are fragile and have limited resources are significantly more vulnerable to disruption and far less likely to respond effectively and be resilient to new challenges, they added.

“The Department of Defense's primary responsibility is to protect national security interests around the world,” officials said in a news release announcing the report’s submission. “This involves considering all aspects of the global security environment and planning appropriately for potential contingencies and the possibility of unexpected developments both in the near and the longer terms.

“It is in this context,” they continued, “that the department must consider the effects of climate change -- such as sea level rise, shifting climate zones and more frequent and intense severe weather events -- and how these effects could impact national security.”

"Propaganda" doesn't mean what you think it means. I've written perhaps a half dozen posts on Sinclair. Please isolate anything I wrote or cited in them which was not factual or which was a fallacious claim unwarranted by the factual material.

I would have a hard time believing that even you would seriously count that biased stuff as objective scholarship.
