More of your bogus crap, BS Bob? Even the Weather Channel, which usually parrots the climate alarmist line, told the truth about Hurricane Helene. A hurricane came up against a stalled cold front over the mountains, and that was the cause of the disaster, NOT CO2 or anything to do with your climate scientology cult. The same exact thing happened in 1916 in the same area, with the same result.

The cancer of Marxist and racist DEI is destroying a lot of agencies of government under Biden and Harris. Since they brought it to the FAA, the number of near misses at airports has soared, and sooner or later it will be an aircraft collision. The military is being destroyed by DEI political officers who are much like the political officers of the old Soviet Red Armny. We need Trump back to cut this cancer out of our government.

I saw that latest jump by Speedway, which is ALWAYS the one to jack up gas prices, this morning and swung by Duck Thru, where using my discount card, I bought gas for 36 cents per gallon less than Speedway is charging. I could have saved 32 cents a gallon at Murphy's. I am sure Duck Thru has matched Speedway by now, and perhaps Murphy's, although Murphy's seems to usually be the last one to go up.

The thing to do is avoid shopping at Speedway even if you are running on fumes. They are a price gouger.

RIggs is also funded by Soros and that makes her downright EVIL.

The Earth's climate has ALWAYS changed, and it does so naturally. There are long term warming and cooling cycles that last centuries that have gone on throughout Earth's history, and nothing man does or doesn't do has anything to do with that. We enetered one of those long term natural warming cycles in the 19th century at the end of a cold cycle known as the Little Ice Age or the Maunder Minimum. The warm period before that, the Medieval Warm Period was warmer than it is today. In fact the longest and hottest of the Earth's warm cycles, the Holocene Maximum, lasted 3,000 years and was MUCH warmer than today. That occured during the height of ancient Greek civilization and from ancient Greek writings, NONE of the dire calamities that the Climate Alarmists now predict ever happened then.

You climate alarmists are Chicken Little on steroids.

Kamala Harris' economic ideas are nuttier than Biden and would wreck our economy as she imposes ideological constraints on our country's job creators. Her mother and father are both extreme socialists and this apple has not fallen far from the tree.

There is a reason the world leading financial journals publish articles on gold by leading financiers like this one in the Financial Times of London:

There is an easy answer to all of this and that is cronyism, something that should outrage all taxpayers.

DPI did not follow the rules because the current DPI Superintendant was in a tough primary election and wanted to get the grants out for the publicity to buy votes. It would not surprise me if other schools given money in her pre-primary spending spree also had corners cut to get the money out quick enough to try to do her some political good.

As to the required review of Cheeseman over the poor performing schools, the sad fact is that six of the current school board members are in Cheeseman's hip pocket and are his puppets. Voters can change that in Novermber by tossing out Cheeseman flunkies Mack Hodges, Eltha Booth and T.W. Allen.

Crooked CBS refused to release the transcript or the tape of the full Kamala Harris interview, which they clearly doctored one answer on because they released the original version as a teaser before the doctoring was done. What more monkey business was involved? A poll showed that 90% of Americans think they should have to release the whole thing.

Now, Spreaker Mike Johnson has also nailed CBS for where they doctored one of his answers in a interview to hide material harmful to Harris. Johnson had made his own recording and released his actual answer undoctored.

Let's look at the actual record instead of Democrat blather. In four years of the Trump administration there was NO targeting of political opponents. In almost four years of Biden-Harris, there has been LOTS of targeting of political opponents with bogus court proceedings. The record speaks volumes on this issue. Democrat claims are just hot air.

Lithium batteries used in EV's burn very hot, very quickly, and with highly toxic fumes. Look at how fast that bus in Paris burned up - in seconds. If it was driving down the road full of school children, it is unlikely many, if any would get out. It is hard to get diesel fund to catch fire, and if it does it burns slowly. Yes gasoline is faster than diesel, but not nearly as fast as lithium. That gives more time for kids to get out. With gas or diesel, fuel tanks are in one part of the bus, so any fire area is more contained. Lithium batteries, however, generally cover the entire roof of the bus, making it much easier to go up in flames very quickly.

Lithium can spontaneously combust, all by itself, while gas or diesel needs an external ignition source.

It is outrageous what the Biden-Harris border policy costs taxpayers to subsidize these parasites. It is not just the hotel rooms, but also food and spending money, and that is coming out of services for Americans like FEMA funds. Trump should win a landslide on changing our policy and sending these moochers home.

That is your Climate Scientology pagan religious cult doctrine speaking, Little Bobbie. Renowned novelist Michael Crichton wrote an excellent essay entitled "Global Warming as a Religion" which you ought to read. He makes some excellent points.

However, former Congressman Pete Dupont of Delaware also wrote some interesting pieces saying that climate alarmism was more of a political ideology, which he termed "Global Warmism". Dr. Vaclav Klaus, former prime minister and president of the Czech Republic really hit the nail on the head when he called climate alarmism "a budding totalitarian ideology that is the greatest threat to freedom, democracy, and prosperity in the world today."

What the climate alarmists are in denial of is that 1) there are well documented long term alternating warming and cooling cycles of the earth's atmosphere that last multiple centuries and we have been in a natural warming cycle since the 19th century when we came out of a particularly cold cycle called the Little Ice Age, and 2) it is well documented that CO2 in the atmosphere rises a century of so AFTER a warming cycle begins, not before it as the climate alarmist position would require. CO2 is a RESULT of warming atmosphere, NOT a cause of it.

For some real science on climate, listen to the many world renowned scientists interviewed in the British TV documentary "The Great Global Warming Swindle" which was broadcast nationally on Channel 4 in the UK: www.youtube.com

Well, no, the far left political hacks at highly partisan CNN claimed he said it in an "October surprise" political hit job. Robinson says he did NOT say it.

Your "points" are nothing but the far left political narrative and NOTHING validates that garbage.

The Democrat Party in NC has gone to the far left. These three candidates are clearly radical left, but then go are Stein and Harris.

What is weird about this is that the federal fiscal year starts Oct.1 every year, so how is FEMA out of money? Their allotment of funds for the fiscal year that just started was effective Oct. 1. So how on Oct. 2 are they out of money already? Have they already committed all their funds to illegal aliens?

Commented: Friday, October 4th, 2024 @ 5:50 pm By: Concerned Taxpayer

This is outrageous. I hope those responsible can be prosceuted and jailed. Americans are suffering because of Biden and Harris' fixation with flooding our country with illegal aliens.
