And consciously undermined a duly elected President for 4 years- the last two with BS impeachments rather than taking care of the Country’s business.Quote:

Sounds awful like a threat to Democracy and the Democratic process when the Houses of Government are sidetracked from functioning.

It’s one thing to claim a “win”. It’s something else all together to get things actually done. Biden has not “gotten it done”.
Per the Wall Street Journal:
“ President Biden’s speech writers put a bipartisan coat of paint on his State of the Union address on Tuesday, but only in service of lecturing Republicans to pass the same agenda he couldn’t pass when Democrats ran the House. He barely mentioned anything Republicans want, and the bipartisanship that didn’t bark was any mention of permitting reform for public works and other projects.
Remember permitting reform? It’s a Republican priority, and Democrats promised Sen. Joe Manchin a vote on it in return for signing off on the Inflation Reduction Act. The issue failed to pass the Senate last year because the West Virginian didn’t write his bill with serious GOP input. One provision would have given federal regulators broad authority to approve electricity transmission lines, including socializing their costs. Some Democrats opposed Mr. Manchin’s plan because they want to stop all fossil-fuel projects.
Mr. Biden could help cut this Gordian knot, but he never mentioned the issue. Instead he told the country that drillers shouldn’t be afraid to invest in new production, because “we’re going to need oil for at least another decade.” Try not to laugh, although many Members of Congress couldn’t help themselves. Only a decade? American energy consumption in 2021 was 79% fossil fuels, 12% renewables and 8% nuclear.
Mr. Biden’s target is 100% clean electricity by 2035. To hit his climate goals, according to a report last year in E&E News, “annual installation of new wind and solar generation would have to increase from two to seven times historical levels.” How does he expect to do that without cutting the red tape that ties up construction of all kinds?

Ford building 950 acre battery plant. Maybe they know something.

Imagine, state subsidies to an American company.
Why, it could have been billions promised to a Chinese company like Foxcomm.
Nikki Haley seems relatively normal. So, she's going to get absolutely crushed in the Presidential race.
Hey, let's not put the stupid green cart in front of the flatulent horse.Quote:

This ridiculously large portion of the worlds population ACTUALLY BELIEVE it can be done with WIND/SOLAR.... it's sheer lunacy. How much longer can this charade continue?
I have family in Hillsboro. If you head north on 62 off of 32, you will see acres and acres of what appear to be solar farm "bones". These are thousands of posts set in concrete bases look to have wiring under ground.....there is usually some sort of transport building among them. These were built before Trump and are getting zero maintenance.....weeds and rust.
Histories biggest con game.
OMG! It goes on for MILES. It's ridiculous.Quote:
