@RipSullivan48 You wrote the Va Green bill based on as many misperceptions as your piece in @RTDOpinions. You failed to acknowledge the blunder in the offshore wind project negating its cost effectivness, aside from location in defense & commercial shipping & endangering whales 1
@RipSullivan48 @RTDOpinions 2 There is NO EXTANT electric grid infrastructure to bring power from wind inland once built. Not a minor oversight. Exactly how soon do you think these quixotic windmills will be operable? Not in 10 years. The SMRs are not new technologies. They've long been used in research.
@RipSullivan48 @RTDOpinions 3 Light water SMRs are currently in development for commercialization and new coolants are being evaluated. This is much closer to commercialization & deployment than most renewables. Va is already involved in developing SMRs with @doescience at @USNatLabs I did research w @NREL.
4 I don't get inaccurate info fr @nytimes journos or Goldman. I've actually worked in renewable materials & energy 4 decades & have 9 patents in that area & a total of 38 patents. I spent a career inventing, commercializing & managing technology for Fortune 500 companies @RTDNEWS
@nytimes @RTDNEWS 5 I'm not sure how much actual experience you've had working in renewables, @RipSullivan48 but I'd bet you have no patents or commercialization experience. I would love to provide #Science info to @VAHouseDems but you seem to prefer non-scientific sources, unlike @GovernorVA #RVA
It should be noted that @GovernorVA isn't just doing a knee jerk reaction on #Climate Instead he's doing what's been going on 3 decades b4 that buzzword. #Sustainability is the real goal & that integrates environment, economic, & social goals, not dreamy notions. @RipSullivan48
6. A last point @vademocrats @RipSullivan48 @VAHouseDems @vahousegop @GovernorVA is helping develop a nascent industry in Virginia, to become part of the supply chain for production of SMRs. #Sustainability means economic development & environmental goals mesh @virginia_tech

@8NEWS @NAACPVirginia @NBC12 @CBS6 @PostOpinions You're misinformed.Twice, vicious actions by @vademocrats arbitrarily & capriciously replaced trusted, respected 30 year veteran registrars replaced by machine pols, 1 #RVA thuggery; 2 NottowayCo Riot. This is cause. @7newsDC @AP
I note that @NAACPVirginia carefully worded the objection to "votes" @JasonMyaresVA Election Integrity center never said any votes were wrong. @VaGOP never said that.The ONLY Party in VA to claim voting irregularities in 2020 election was @DPVChair @RTDNEWS @NBC12 @LoudounNaacp
The careful wording #votes not electoral violations & abuses shows @NAACPVirginia is acting as an arm of #TammanyHallMachineDemsVA on the explicit directions of the #TheMachineBoss without knowing for whom they have been tricked into working or that they've been manipulated. @FBI

@FIFAcom @MofaQatar_EN Qatar Labor Laws are not news, just because press just discovered them. The current Emir's father began modernizing the country including educating women & preparing them for the workforce decades ago. I went to Qatar for complaince review at a college.1/
2/ @FIFAWorldCup In 2004 I prepared the compliance manual, a large tome of all laws, regs & found Qatar LaborLaws on @WSJ It is difficult to control multiple contractors on massive projects, but Qatar has changed laws to provide more protection but enforcement is difficult. @fifa
3/ @MofaQatar_EN has led the region in education & employment of women. LGBT lobby wants Y chromosome male Trans to play against women counter to #Science Intl sports authority FENA reviewed all data & of course found Y Trans have unfair advantages over girls/women @QFA_EN.

@NAACPVirginia seeks to deflect blame for the DEAD-LAST in USA test scores of inner city @VASchools. Youngkin is raising standards & the best defense is a good offense so they ATTACK @GovernorVA @nytimes @PostOpinions @RTDOpinions @maddow
@LesterHoltNBC @JCapehardt @7NewsDC @NPR
@NAACPVirginia Loudoun branch sent out this urgent call to action to @VASchoolBoards urging rejection of the standards, unfairly accusing @GovernorVA & his team of racism because the standards are NOT the #1619Project admittedly part fiction journalist's view of history. @RTDNEWS
@NAACPVirginia @VASchoolBoards @GovernorVA @RTDNEWS Email from Michelle Thomas to @VaSchoolBoards @VaHousedems @VASenateDems @vademocrats, donor list
Call to Action - Stop Youngkin SOL Discriminatory Changes! -text largely misleading, w a few reasonable items to correct- but ending with DONATE, completely Trumpian grift. @7NewsDC

@VA_GOP @PostOpinions @GovernorVA I called out that false narrative in a comment @WashPost did not print. Opinion wasn't written by @DonScott757, a really good guy, but by VA Dem Machine.#FactsMatter Please read this summary of the #Truth @vademocrats @PostOpinions @RTDOpinions @GlennKessler #FactcheckersTeam Image
@VA_GOP @PostOpinions @GovernorVA @WashPost @DonScott757 @vademocrats @RTDOpinions @GlennKessler Here's proof of the #Facts about the VA General Assembly Joint Legislative Accounting Committee JLAC Report that came out Nov 2021. Virginia's economy lagged nation & region. Under 2 yrs of 100% Dem control Virginia lost 9 manufacturing planst, even Aerospace! Analysis below Image
@VA_GOP @PostOpinions @GovernorVA @WashPost @DonScott757 @vademocrats @RTDOpinions @GlennKessler Losing out on aerospace manufacturing was the unkindest cut, since Virginia has @NASA_Langley & @NASA_Wallops Island launch facility. Plus @VTEngineering But Dem legislature & McAuliffe saying he'd sign repeal of Va RTW laws, was too big a risk to invest in capital in the ground

@smithsonian Pocahontas- Recent studies of Powhatan Indians practices, when intruders were captured the practice was to allow the women to decide whether to live or die. Living, they were adopted into the family, which did happen. Smith returned to England. She married John Rolfe
2/ Traveling to England to be introduced at Court, Pocahontas met John Smith again, seemed upset she was deceived about his reported death. Un accustomed to England’s cold damp weather, she caught an infection and died, never returned home.
In a related colonial historical fact, the First Thanksgiving actually took place in Virginia, Dec 6, 1619 on land that became Berkeley Plantation, where public Thanksgiving feasts are celebrated each year. President John Kennedy recognized that fact. @smithsonian

Unsustainable #RVA finances @RTDNEWS We already have higher tax rate than Fairfax Co. $1.5B in #DD TIFs are payday loans against future taxes while future also has MANDATORY Wastewater Bill Cost of $1.3B @rvabizsense #RVAcouncil @CBS6 @DaveRess1 @NBC12 Can't afford #DD project Image
Cost figures for DiamondDistrict $1.5B AND $1.3B for MANDATORY WasteWater project, NOT reflecting inflation.The loss of TIF payday loans $ is money we don't have 4 Sewer Project, let alone for @RPS_Schools & @RichmondPolice Please review @Jeffersoninst Tell #RVA if this works
#RVA's mismanagement of federal funds from #CARES can adversely impact the city's ability to get future fed funds. This reflects admin lack of fiduciary responsibility, from day 1. City auditor told #RVAMayor @RPS_Schools needed audit. Stoney fired him next day. Still the same.
