Bill Gates is building a small city for his daughter’s wedding but told @andersoncooper about the sacrifices we all must make for #ClimateChange. Just remember this when he or other billionaires tell you it’s existential. It’s a lie. The whole thing.
Not one climate warrior- not Gates, Bloomberg, John Kerry- not one will sacrifice a drop of their personal comfort or luxury for #ClimateChange - but they WILL support laws which gives government the power to force you to sacrifice.

That is why they must be defeated.
Next month 30,000 people will fly to Scotland to yammer about the existential crisis. Hundreds of private jets will land. Haughty @JohnKerry will mumble for hours about the “threats”.

No one will join via Skype because they don’t have to. They are the ones with power.
I don’t begrudge Gates his wealth or his daughter a lavish wedding. Or Kerry his jet or Obama his costal mansion.

I do begrudge them telling regular Americans to sacrifice for their high-class charity.

And that is why they must be defeated.
“You’re just jealous”.

You mean “envious”? Tell you what- you learn English vocabulary and then come back to me with your hot takes on climate change.

No wonder you call it “existential”. You don’t know what the word means.

A year ago your “Republican” friends on Facebook started posting how they were voting for “decency” and looking to bring “dignity” in the Oval Office. “I may disagree with Biden on some things, but…”. And they told you how much better humans they were.

Boy, have they shut up.
“I’ve voted Republican my entire life, but…” they wrote with heavily edited, self-absorbed prose. So proud of themselves, too. So eager to get the praise of liberals and clueless suburbanites. “We’re gonna build back better!” they proclaimed greedily smelling their own stupid.
“I know this will cost my some friendships, but…” they Sylvia Plathed. Martyrs for humanity. The last vestiges of heroes like Jeff Flake and Link Chaffee.

Remember them? The sanctimony? The smug? I remember most of all the cowardice.

Their recent reticence is joyous.

Parts of the #reconciliationbill that could pass. But that’s not how @SpeakerPelosi and @SenSchumer want it. They want it all. No compromise. No negotiation. Absolutely everything or abject failure.

This stupidity is why we’re $30T in debt. Congress is run by fools.
Majorities in both parties PLUS the White House and the democrats once again wait till the 11th hour for a vote. Threats of shutdown.

Why? Because congress is run by idiots who love games and posturing and not doing their job.

What a joke they are. A shame to our nation.
Want a road? Vote for a road.

But not congress.

Tie the road to universal pre-K and medicaid for illegals and chinese solar panels, call it “For the Troops Act”, it’s 1500 pages and $2Trillion and if you don’t vote for it, some Soros group will run millions in ads against you.

The masked servant carrying the couture gown for the “socialist” member of our ruling class attending a $30,000 a ticket ball.

Das Cinderella

I’ve said often on radio that Bernie Sanders is not a communist. He’s a communist party leader. Because at the height of power with the gulags full and the peasants starving, the communist party leaders never wanted for caviar and vodka.

AOC joins those ranks.
Private jet John Kerry says go green.

Owner of 4 homes Bernie Sanders says capitalism fails.

AOC at a $30,000 per ball says “tax the rich”.

It’s laughable but don’t laugh. Your the person their coming after. There’s 100,000,000 graves as proof.

The components of the $3.5T #ReconciliationBill are so awful that the Dems won’t propose them individually. They shove them all together in a 4,000 page crap sandwich, call it “For the Children of Tomorrow and World Peace Bill” and then get Soros groups to scare up votes.
The democrats will NEVER do an immigration bill. Or a healthcare bill. Or a tax bill. They won’t get the votes. So they write a 💩🥪omnibus.

It’s probably the most unAmerican and vile part of DC. Pork and waste and theft and grift.
And congress wonders why the coronavirus polls higher than they do.

Some great patriots running for congress. And boy do we need them to reform that cesspool of filth.

.@Harvard could take some very concrete steps to reduce their carbon footprint: go analog. Streaming uses a ton of energy. Go to class in person. Check out real books at the library. Shut down the cameras. Make people attend in person, walk, physically learn. More:
Harvard could skip the speaking circuit. Every ✈️ to deliver a paper in Europe is wasteful.

Harvard could commit to only day games in football. Playing @BrownUniversity at 7pm? Hmm. 🌎?

Harvard could revise its cafeteria menus. 🍣? Not green. 🥭 🥑? Not green. More:
Harvard could ban video gaming in dorms. I’m sure they ban a lot of stuff already! Gaming uses more energy than appliances. Plus dorms should be for community and thoughtfulness. And sleep and studying. No more gaming! Or Netflix. Or Prime. Or Hulu. Or Ted Lasso. More:

The #GreenNewDeal will prevent extreme weather. Once we stop burning coal for electricity but burn even more of it to make solar panels, and then burn fossil fuels to move those solar panels to fields where we've chopped down all the trees, we will solve the problem. #Science
Once we stop using fossil fuels for electricity but use them in chinese slave mines to get the materials to make wind turbines which have an 8 year lifespan we will solve the problem. All it takes is a belief in science.
We must keep fossil fuels in the ground. Also none of the "green" energy products can be made without them. But that's good fossil fuels. And they don't have emissions. Or they do, but they are good emission because they make solar panels which are good. #SCIENCE
