In anticipation for @JoeBiden remarks on #ClimateEmergency for this afternoon, a quick 🧵

1988. Senator Wirth (D, CO) Chair of Energy and Natural Resources Committee, holds the first hearing on GLOBAL WARMING.

It was political theater. As Sen. Wirth later admitted (next)

They checked the weather bureau to find the historically hottest day in DC and chose that date for the hearing.

The night before they opened all the windows in the hearing room and said the AC wasn’t working.

Everyone was hot and sweaty for the cameras. Then (next)

Climate guru James Hansen laid out the case. WE MUST ACT NOW to avoid the crisis. The threat was IMMINENT AND IRREVERSIBLE.

Mind you this was 34 years ago.

The globalists soon followed. Months later the UN famously concluded the Maldives would be underwater by 2000. Yes, (next)

THE MALDIVES.

Most of Bangladesh would, too. Famine. End of civilization.

This is only a decade after the “experts”‘parroted by NYTimes propagandist Walter Sullivan write about the coming ice age.

Spock even made a PSA (next)

But now- a decade later- a complete 180 based on “the science” and “the experts” and the time to act is NOW.

Timing is curious. 1988 the economy was roaring. HW hadn’t tanked Reagan’s work yet. So in the largesse and comfort of economic bounty, a new cause was born (next)

No one has ever explained WHY the Maldives aren’t underwater (in fact they are bigger) No one has ever explained WHY “the science” was wrong then but is correct now.

Just shut up and wear your mask… I mean buy an electric car…

All you need to know are these points (next)

1. Be afraid. The threat is real, it’s coming, it will kill us all, and only government can save you

2. Trust “the experts” and “the science”. Do not ask to see their work. And if you question it you are a threat. A denier. A disinformation campaign. You must be silenced (next)

3. The solution means surrendering your rights for the greater good. Now is not the time to be selfish. You must do your part because the public good triumphs

4. The elites are exempt. They are too important and their work is too critical to be constrained by rules (next)

5. Success is never the goal. We will never “win” or “defeat the enemy”. The process is more important than the outcomes.

Now- take those 5 steps and apply it to climate change, COVID, war on terror, it’s all the same CRISIS. It’s all the same EMERGENCY. Substitute (next)

Taking off your shoes at TSA with wearing your mask with turning off your AC. It’s the the same thing.

We never won the “war on terror”. We “defeated the virus”. And we will never- ever- “fix climate”.

And @JohnKerry will never give up tue ketchup private jet (next)

Just like @SpeakerPelosi will never not get her hair done in lockdowns.

Don’t doubt. Don’t spread misinformation. Be afraid. Surrender your rights. We are all going to die. The threat is real. Only government can save you. Remember this 🧵 when @JoeBiden speaks.
