Not a put on—I *seriously* thought this was an attempt at humor.
But it seems that *he* (Rob Schneider) was the one being serious.
These people are members of the most dangerous American cult of the last 150 years and possibly ever.
They are—candidly—utterly mad. They’re also in charge right now.

The Primary Energy Fallacy is the idea that all primary energy from fossil fuels must be replaced with equivalent amount of clean energy.
BUT: Not necessary because >2/3 of all primary energy is lost as waste heat.
Electrification+renewables are far more efficient.

Global warming caused by humans is an observed fact. Yes, science still needs to learn more, but it's no more in overall doubt than the theory of gravity. And it's bad. Willful ignorance, enforced by those who choose to deny science, is an existential threat to our civilization.

Boring can be brilliant. In Pueblo, Colorado, they're planning to replace a coal plant with one of largest clean energy hubs in US.
At its core: a thermal battery. These batteries can provide round-the-clock heat, slashing emissions, creating jobs, and improving public health.

The free speech activist who built a list of professors he worked to get fired for their speech must be celebrated for his support of free speech, and anyone who quotes his speech accurately in context will be fired and/or face state punishment by the champions of free speech, do I have that right?

You cannot get more un-American than this.
I refer to the State Department edict.
Remember, this new policy curtailing free speech is brought to you by the very people who spent the last decade whining like children about their free speech being abridged and Democrats allegedly hating free speech.

More than 880,000 workers will get a raise this summer due to state minimum wage increases.
Anyone upset about this should consider the following:
If the minimum wage had kept pace with worker productivity gains since the 1960s, it would now be nearly $26 an hour.
