Axios: Guess What Democrats Have Stopped Talking About?

There had been a dearth of screeching from the left about the impending climate apocalypse. With the failures of the Green New Boondoggle as a slush fund for leftist waste, fraud and abuse, perhaps it was just s "phase they were going through".

Axios: Guess What Democrats Have Stopped Talking About?

Democrats have stopped discussing the Green New Deal. What does this mean for climate policy?

hotair.com

Here's a hint: It's something that Democrats could not shut up about for the last four years. No, it's not Defund the Police. That mission still gets some support from the progressive/socialist vanguard, as we see in New York City. And you know it's not about Donald Trump and his supposed "threat to democracy."

So which Democrat dog has ceased its barking? The one that barked up the wrong energy tree, according to an Axios review of Democrat speeches and social-media accounts:

Democrats aren't explicitly disavowing the Green New Deal, but they've abruptly stopped talking about it as they scramble to find new ways to talk about climate change.

• Over the past three months, Democrats in Congress collectively said "Green New Deal" only six times across social media and on the floor.
• That's the fewest mentions since the proposal rose to prominence in the fall of 2018, according to data from the legislative tracking service Quorum.

The second potential reason may be more applicable. Joe Biden actually managed to get a big chunk of the Green New Deal through Congress by calling it the Inflation Reduction Act. His administration then took that cash and just handed it out to progressive orgs run by cronies like Stacey Abrams. As we found out a few weeks ago, the Biden Regency gave out $90 billion in "loans" from the IRA after losing the election, with $42 billion going out the door in the last two days of Biden's wretched term

Globull warming is one of the biggest hoaxes ever perpetuated.

But a huge cash cow. The Biden collection of crooks managed to barf out $90 Billion in "loans" in the last few weeks of his pretend presidency

Illegal Russian volcano currently polluting the atmosphere with millions of tons of greenhouse gases.

Putin and Trump colluded to destroy the planet.

Here's my opinion. Remember, I'm not an expert.

It’s warming. The warming is caused by us. Warming is dangerous. We need to urgently transition to renewable energy to stop the warming. Once we do that, sea-level rise will stop and the weather won’t be so extreme.

Ask Ding if he agrees. He's appointed himself as an expert.

Our expert mr. Ding agrees with me.

He's afraid to disagree.

Another thread where right wing geniuses think that nothing matters? Viruses arent real, vaccines arent real, Global pollution isnt real, warming trends arent real, elections arent real, labor metrics arent real, literally the handwriting of the president on cards isnt real.

Green new deal was aspirational and had a lot of good in it, along with some things that were unworkable. It was a vision not legislation. The right would like to simply throw garbage all around the world because of the manliness of shitting on the environment. Nothing more manly than ******* everything up.

The Green New Deal: What it says, what it doesn’t say, and how close we are to adopting it | Penn Today

Mark Alan Hughes, director of the Kleinman Center for Energy Policy, discusses the basics of this energy-mobilization proposal.

penntoday.upenn.edu

The Green New Deal is a non-binding resolution that outlines broad goals for addressing climate change and promoting economic growth. It aims to achieve net-zero greenhouse emissions and create high-paying jobs, but it does not specify how these goals will be achieved or provide funding mechanisms. The resolution emphasizes the need for a 10-year mobilization to implement these goals, but it remains a non-legally enforceable document.

 

[ColonelAngus]

They stopped talking about all the COVID FASCISM.

Move along….lets just move forward!

Lets forget about lockdowns that were violated for BLMANTIFA RIOTS. LETS FORGET ABOUT LOCKDOWNS BROKEN BY NEWSOME AND PELOSI.

LETS FORGET ABOUT “VAX” mandates that got people fired and forced vaccinations got people vax damaged.

Lets forget the “vax” is not a “vax”. The CDC changed the definition of VACCINE to include the Mrna experimental gene therapy shot.

Lets forget the shot is neither safe nor effective.

Lets forget we were sold the virus came from a bat ******* a pangolin, and not the WUHAN LAB OR VIROLOGY WHERE DR FAUCI WAS FUNDING VIRUS RESEARCH.

LETS FORGET THE THOUSANDS OF SMALL BUSINESSES WHO CLOSED FOREVER DUE TO LOCKDOWNS.

LETS JUST MOVE ON!

MY only solace is I know 100% that MANY FASCIST LEFTY ***** ARE VAX DAMAGED. GOOD.

Concrete and asphalt cities cause global warming.

Let's bury them and plant trees on top.

This is just another attempt to steer attention away from the Epstein scandal. They’re flooding the zone in defense of their god-king.

No defense, just another attack! Typical Trump/MAGA diversion/flooding the zone.

No relevant comment. Just screeching about your hurt feelings

The fact that you don't know the difference between weather and climate clearly indicates YOU ARE A ******* IDIOT.

I guess that is different than Republican waste, fraud, and incompetence.

DOGE’s big illusion: the heavy costs of the Trump administration’s so-called efficiency - CREW | Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington

CREW’s review of some of the programs targeted for cuts by DOGE and the Trump admin found that the elimination or reduction of these programs have directly cost over 50,000 people their jobs. DOGE’s cuts could result in a loss of over $10 billion in U.S.-based economic activity and the...

After Lobbying Blitz, Trump IRS Formally Kills Direct File Program That Would've Saved Americans Billions | Common Dreams

Trump's IRS chief this week formally declared the death of the Direct File program that was slated to save the average taxpayer $160 each year. The long-expected move comes after months of aggressive lobbying by companies like Intuit and H&R Block.

Well join the club sugar. I am sick of you ******* idiots and that shit that constantly streams from your ass. Obama needs to go to jail. I mean damn, how lame can you get. Can we get past the "lock her up" bullshit from more than eight years ago. There is no global warming, good God Almighty, wake the **** up and read something. Ever hear of Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation. That puppy is about ready to collapse, if it does, the last thing you will be concerned about will be Obama, or Clinton, or illegal immigrants.

Trump is a billionaire, good for him. But since he took office his net worth has more than DOUBLED. WTF? Has your net worth doubled? **** no. Did you get a tax cut? **** no, the first Trump tax cuts were merely extended, you will pay the same. Did he cut taxes on tips, **** no. Just a $25,000 exemption, which anyone working for tips that earns less than that in tips doesn't pay federal income taxes anyway. SUCKER. Did he cut the tax on Social Security income? **** no, just a $6,000 exemption, and only for those over 65. If that seems significant to you you probably weren't paying taxes on your Social Security income anyway, SUCKER. And both of those, well they expire at the end of Trump's term. MASSIVE SUCKER.

Meanwhile, you getting shafted with tariffs. Average tariff rate paid by Americans under Biden, two percent. Now, we are already over 14% and headed for 18%, levels not scene since 1933. Oh yeah, 1933, them was glorious times. Trump will go down as the biggest tax increaser in history.

GDP growth, anemic at best. Jobs, just like before, Trump will have the distinction of serving two terms and decreasing the number of jobs in both. SUCKER. Inflation, yeah, no lower than under Biden and set to take off. Immigration, deportation of criminals, Biden deported more. I mean BIDEN DEPORTED MORE. I mean all these masked goons, showing up at immigration court, at church's, at schools, and yet they still can't deport as many criminals as Biden. I mean it is a show, a show alright, a SHIT SHOW.

I mean every day you can find just another way Trump, and the Republicans, are ******* all of us. Take Direct File. A free program by the IRS. A simple tax return, like the majority of Americans file. OK, not me, mine looks like a short novel. But most Americans, bust their ass, work a job, get a W2. They could file for free through this program. Well, not anymore. The tax preparation companies floated Trump and Republicans some money and now, well no more free tax filing. Did you vote for that shit? Oh yeah, I want to pay H & R Block $160 bucks to do a half-ass job. I don't want to file for free.

The CFPB, has recovered billions, yes billions with a "B", from companies that screwed people over. Gone, defended, staff terminated. Dammit, Make America Great Again, when companies can screw over the hard working middle class without any oversight. Is that what you voted for?

At first, well the poor are going to really feel the heat. But make no mistake, that shit is going to go malignant and we all are going to pay. And you ******* idiots only have yourselves to blame.
