The Usurper is on a mission to harm the US and its citizens, period. This cannot stand. Our destruction is inevitable if he's allowed another illegal term in office.

President Biden just pledged to shut down 60% of America’s electric power

Reason number 1,428 why it is imperative to elect Donald Trump president again in 2024

The CCP said no new coal plants for the USA. They own the Democratic party.

U.S. residential electricity bills increased 5% in 2022, after adjusting for inflation - U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA)

www.eia.gov

In nominal terms, the average monthly electricity bill for residential customers in the United States increased 13% from 2021 to 2022, rising from $121 a month to $137 a month.

Did you read why this happened?

"Higher fuel costs for power plants drove the increase in residential retail electricity prices. The cost of fossil fuels—natural gas, coal, and petroleum—delivered to U.S. power plants increased 34%, from $3.82 per million British thermal units (MMBtu) in 2021 to $5.13/MMBtu in 2022. The higher fuel costs were passed along to residential customers and contributed to higher retail electricity prices."

The lefturds will predictably attack the piece quoted in the OP.

Here is the link again: President Biden just pledged to shut down 60% of America’s electric power

The attack will be on the messenger. “Heritage” (harrumph).

But what of the major bullet points?

• Demand will increase (especially given EV shit).
• Our production (if we follow through on Lurch’s commitments and HeelsUp’s claims) will drop off precipitously at that same time.
• China may very well open 2 new dirtier coal plants for everyone we shutter.
• India and Russia can’t be relied on to play follow our lead.
• Any lowering we theoretically might make in CO2 and methane emissions is likely to be massively offset by the increase caused by China and India and Russia and some developing nations.

All this being so, what the fuck is Potato doing? I’m sure he doesn’t know. But what game are his handlers playing? And why?

Childish name calling aside, this is an opinion piece with no data to back it up.

In the latest push for economic suicide in the name of fighting climate change, President Joe Biden’s Environmental Protection Agency just unveiled rules aimed at shutting down most of America’s electric plants even if we can’t replace them in time.

The EPA rule would require coal- and natural gas-fired power plants to slash their carbon emissions to near-zero within the next decade, or close.

In theory, it gives them the option to install carbon-capture tech to reach its goal (and gas plants the chance to just burn more hydrogen in their mix), but the necessary technology is nowhere close to off-the-shelf yet, and may never be.

Plus, it requires building more pipelines to haul off the captured carbon, and building that infrastructure would be another costly and legally-fraught task.

Bidenomics really suck, huh?

This looks like another opinion piece, with EPA rule link going to this story:

The EPA is under Sleepy Joe's control, you know.

It isn't like they aren't dependent on the Liberal Elite that rule this nation.

A Rupert owned paper and of course you believe it.

You are using an opinion piece as fact. Reducing is NOT eliminating. You do know the difference right?

Just to warn you, MAGA does not like facts that do not fit their already predetermined narrative.

Good luck with that. MAGA ain't known for shall we say supporting their proof.
