Commented on N.C. ‘Marijuana Superstore’ set to open April 20th sparks concerns from Sens. Budd and TillisAnd although I don't smoke marijuana because I'm allergic to it, this is exactly why the state and federal government need to get off their own high horse's and legalize it for medical and psychological usage.

High winds are nothing new, whether straight line, tornado, or hurricane. They have been happening since the dawn of time and will continue to happen. Building wind and solar farms in out of the way places has led to a lot more power lines being up, and that is what increases the risk of wildfires, plus the fact that wind turbines themselves fairly often catch fire and can be ignition sources.
Illegal aliens have also proven to sometimes start wildfires through negligence or intent. Large numbers of jihadist Muslim illegal aliens and ChiCom illegal aliens hostile to the US, increases the risk of intentionally set wildfires.

With a totalitarian World Health Organization trying to impose a "treaty" that is a massive powergrab, these results should be a wakeup call. The WHO has become little more than a wholly owned subsidiary of the ChiComs, with its ChiCom recruited and backed director general Tedros having no medical experience in his background as Foreign Minister of Ethiopia. The WHO backed the Chinese lockdown strategy which was a disaster. We do not need to give them any more control.

The Lankford sellout was NOT a "compromise". It was a betrayal that tried to legitimize Biden's distortions of our immigration laws and created incentives for more illegal aliens to come. Instead of solving anything, it just made the situation on the border worse. No wonder the Oklahoma GOP has censured Lankford and cut off all support to him.
Legitimizing Biden's bastardization of illegal immigration was LESS than nothing. It was going backward. The Democrats' idea of a "compromise is doing it all or mostly their way, with maybe a few bribes for Republican sellouts thrown in. Lankford has always been a Chamber of Commerce doofus on illegal immigration. McConnell sending him to "negotiate" was a signal that what McConnell really wanted to do was surrender, which was what he tried to do. If McConnell really wanted to get something worthwhile out of the discusions he would have sent a fighter like Ted Cruz or J.D. Vance to negotiate, not a pathetic surrender monkey like Lankford.

Wildfire has indeed been used as a weapon of unconventional warfare. A case in point is the group of wildfires that severely damaged the olive orchards of Turkish controlled North Cyprus a couple of decades ago. After a bitterly fought civil war between Greek and Turkish Cypriots led to a Turkish invasion and Turkish control of the northern third of the country, the wildfires on the Turkish side were initially blamed on Greek Cypriots to the south, but evidence ultimately showed that it was not the Greek Cypriots who set the fires after all. It was the Kurdish guerillas who were fighting Turkey's government in eastern Turkey, a long way from Cyprus, who were responsible.
I never got to experience the Checkpoint Charlie crossing between east and west Berlin, but I did personally get to experience the closest thing, the Leda Palace Crossing in Cyprus between the Greek and Turkish run parts of their capital of Nicosia, first through the Greek Cypriot checkpoint, then the UN peacekeeper checkpoint, and finally the Turkish Cypriot checkpoint, with the fortifications from the military conflict all around, and the no man's land still very much separating the two sides along the Green Line.

Cause fossil fuel fired utilities don’t use power lines. 👀
This was just so much simpler when I could blame the brown people!

So what. You can’t get it to pass. Instead of compromising and getting something, you take the ball and go home.
Like a spoiled child. You don’t have the votes for HR2. So you took nothing. Stop crying.

Actually it just happens. Power companies out west have learned to turn off the power under certain weather conditions to reduce wild fire. It’s not a 100% but a useful tool.
Just another response to climate change we all have to make. The more you know!

Republicans in the House are still pressing for real action on illegal immigration. The latest is the just-introduced "Build the Wall and Deport Them All Act"

Knocking down a power line would be a clever ignition source for all of those tens of thousands of military aged Chinese males pouring across the US border from Mexico. And the fire just happened to be close to one of our military nuclear facilites.
What it was NOT was CO2 or "climate change"

Republicans are trying to do something about Biden's border disaster. The GOP House has passed a bill to secure the border, HB 1, and now a bill to deal with migrant crime, the Laken Riley Act. The Republicans are doing something, but it is the Biden Democrats who are stalling in the Senate, in conjunction with the RINO "Republicans" like Chamber of Commerce Lankford, who try to sell us out by encouraging more illegal aliens to come in. That fool was actually quoted as saying "I love all immigrants equally, legal and illegal". Those who arrogantly break our laws should NEVER be treated the same as those who properly go through the process to come legally.

Which road, Bobbie? The one between Beijing, Communist China, and Pyongyang, North Korea? Yeah, I'd have to agree that you are right in the middle of THAT road.
Denial is not a river in Egypt, Little Bobbie. This is a good case in point. You COULD have checked this article out on the legistature's website, in which case you would have found the info in it to be true, but you didn't. You just did a blanket knee-jerk denial because it did not fit your narrative. This is what the far left now calls "malinformation" which they want to suppress; information that is factually true but goes against their narrative. Check with your talking points, Bobbie. The left has stopped denying information like this. They just want to suppress it because it hurts their narrative even when they admit it is true.

The House passed HR2 months ago to take serious action to crack down on the influx of illegal aliens, but it sits in committee in the Democrat run Senate, not moving. It is the Democrats who are unable to govern. Now the House has also passed the Laken Riley Act, which I guess will also sit in limbo in the Democrat run Senate.

BS, Bobbie. The sellout crowd put forward a bill to legitimize Biden's deviations from the law. That proposal weakened, not strengthened our immigration laws. We should do as Hungary does and reject all illegal aliens. The asylum treaties do NOT require us allowing people already in a safe country to enter ours. We could reject all of them coming from Mexico and Canada and should do so.

Anyone who reads your gibberish here knows where you stand on the ideological spectrum whether you fess up to it or not, Bolshevik Bob. The real truth is that your lefties did introduce the bill referred to in the article and it does what is described. You can look it up on the website of the Washington state legislature and read it for yourself, troll.
