Under the cover of Covid, and now in the shadow of the infamous Election Irregularities of that fated 2020 presidential election, with current emerging alleged election fraud in Nevada and Pennsylvania inconveniently slipping into the public discourse, there is proved a colluded ongoing Election Interference in the nomination of the Republican candidate, the likes of which has never occurred in our Constitutional Republic's history, albeit, the question remains: Do you support the plain-sight Election Interference of the Democratic Socialist party, employing its minions in their Propagandistic Media, and their Two Tiered Justice System?
98.82% No, I do not support Election Interference; I am a patriot unto our Constitution.
1.18% Yes, I do support Election Interference; the alternative, Donald Trump, to this mentally diminished president is far worse.
0% "What, me worry" if elections are rigged?

In a recent post, I discussed the sudden war on gas-fired stoves and appliances being waged by environmental extremists in government, not just in the Biden administration but even in many cities and counties and some states, too.

To meet the law’s requirements of being least-cost while maintaining grid reliability, the Utilities Commission’s initial “Carbon Plan” sees natural gas as a “bridge fuel” until sufficient zero-emissions resources “are available and can replace at scale what gas contributes to the system”

By law, the Utilities Commission’s Carbon Plan must chart the “reasonable,” “least cost path” to emissions reductions with “least cost planning of generation” that would “maintain and improve upon the reliability of the grid”

For years we have been warning about the dangers of replacing readily available, highly efficient, working power plants with highly expensive, extremely unreliable “renewable” sources — solar and wind — that can produce power only when conditions allow and without respect for the needs of people.

In the name of “fighting climate change,” forcing Gov. Roy Cooper’s reductions in North Carolina’s electricity-based CO2 emissions would cost $141.7 billion to $162.3 billion, raise household electricity bills by well over a thousand dollars per year, and risk capacity shortfalls and rolling blackou
