Climate change is a scam?
If so, why did the oil companies spend so much time and effort to hide the results of their research?
Are those titans of international business all total idiots?
They knew ... and it's clear that they believed their own scientists ... they knew exactly how it worked.
( The process had been first understood, and clearly explained, back in the heyday of Coal. )
You might still believe that human caused climate change is a scam, but mother nature says otherwise.
The Inuit tribes in Alaska had no word for "mosquito" ... they'd never seen one until very recently.
Glaciers are melting around the globe ... look at the photos ... believe your eyes.
You might not believe scientists, but your insurance company certainly does.
They deal in cold, hard, facts ... and they see clearly where this is heading:
Having more severe weather events leads directly to more losses.
Their entire business model depends on forecasting probabilities of a disaster.
Their statistical models can no longer rely on historical data to calculate those odds.
Look no farther than the rates for reinsurance coverage.
( Insurance companies hedge their bets this way. )
Please, believe me.
I don't mean to demean those who believe in the "scam".
Very intelligent people can, and do, make huge errors.
But the fact remains: The Smart Money Is Betting On Climate Change
People with more brain power than both of us put together have analyzed the issue from every angle.
On this point, both the scientific And financial worlds are in complete agreement:
Humans have altered the planets' climate, and the rate of change has increased.

Has there ever been a former VP who did not endorse his old running mate in American history?

Good christian man just can’t bring himself to it. Bullshit. Sour grapes politician that would love to be T’s running mate again but won’t even be considered. He is a loser. Had aspirations of being President someday but now might not even be elected dogcatcher somewhere.

Had aspirations of being President someday but now might not even be elected dogcatcher somewhere. Well in that case they probably should have hung him. I’m a democrat and can’t find a single bad thing to say about the guy except I don’t agree with his politics. You on the other hand , as a Democrat, parrot the orange messiah word for word. I’m starting to think Democrat might mean something different in Illinois.

Vladimir Putin appeared visibly angry on the first day of Russia's election following widespread reports of protests and vandalism by voters across the country. The three-day election kicked off last night and is set to run until 6pm on Sunday - and it seems inevitable that the incumbent premier will sweep to victory yet again. But already, videos have been posted to social media showing nationwide chaos, with Russians protesting in various ways - including at polling stations. In footage posted to Telegram - a popular messaging app among Russians - a person can be seen allegedly urinating on Putin's parents' grave in St Petersburg's Serafimovsky cemetery. And while some voters burned ballot boxes, others burned the papers themselves - GB News has seen footage of one woman burning a ballot with "bring back my husband" written on it in an apparent protest against the war in Ukraine. While in Siberia, more videos emerged on social media of fires breaking out polling locations. In one, officials can be seen scrambling to extinguish a blaze after a woman attempted to set fire to a ballot box using a Molotov cocktail. Russians are voting in an election that holds little suspense after Putin crushed dissent Stanislav Andreychuk, from activist group Movement for Defence of Voters' Rights said the incidents were "a new feature of these elections". Andreychuk said there had been reports from a number of regions of voters pouring dye into ballot boxes, as well as Molotov cocktails like those used in Siberia being utilised to cause damage. He said: "This has never happened before and this is probably a consequence of the enormous tension and aggression it generated in society, for which the Russian authorities bear direct responsibility." Putin said: "I am sure that our people - the people of Russia - will respond to this with even greater solidarity. www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/putin-fuming-after-man-urinates-on-his-parents-graves-and-russians-light-polling-stations-on-fire-during-elections/ar-BB1jYUSK?ocid=winp1taskbar&cvid=86801c1a42d24b2daa4bc484d20b193a&ei=11

Ferris, you realize if you post bad things about Putin, bimini will have a heart attack and possibly hurt himself. Twisted is a died-in-the wool 100% Putin commie, I'm concerned for his safety. God willing, he'll be ok.

Pence thought he was gonna die on J6 because of his bosses "comments" exhorting the crowd of "patriots" storming the capitol. He refused to get into an escape car because he thought it would be a one way trip. Would you vote for the leader of the J6 gang if you were Pence?
surmised it might be a one way trip.

Cadman hit some valid points. Others just parrot what they’re told As the facts came out, we know that impeachment 1 was that it was political and it was found he wasn’t guilty of soliciting help from a foreign country And the same for the second of inciting a riot. What many confuse is that most don’t like Trump per se. Clearly the left doesn’t. But even many on the right. But for those on the right, what they liked were his policy’s, his success, his US first mentality and mostly telling the truth about DC Yea his delivery was horrible. But he delivered it. No one would say what we all knew about DC, the corruptness, the banking of wealth but he did. That put corporate America and DC on notice and they went after him since. And now what further drives the right into his corner, again not his charming personality, is what we are seeing done to him (assume for a moment that he’s innocent until proven guilty..which you should) is the huge double-standard, and frankly the left and DC assuming Americans are idiots. We saw the pelosis, the Schiffs, Schumers purposley mislead the American people. Divide the nation with their Falsehoods and rhetoric, stifle free speech, and allow their own to walk away with actual crimes, that Trump was accused of. Americans see the double standard. And if the left continues to go unabated they’ll further divide us (which of course that’s what they need) So TDS is the righteous left who foam at mouth, spread hate, burn AMerica, and blame Trump for all woes in their life. TDS for Trump supporters are Americans fed up with the double-standard, the corruption of our most sacred gov entity’s and see our country being driven further into a black hole. Still the best synopsis from page 1 I wish there was a other choice besides Trump. I won't vote for Biden on policy, and end around legislation that he does. No go on Kennedy either. BUT the vp pick is going to be more important in this election than ones in the past. Its a shit sandwich and we all have to take a bite no matter who you choose.
