OFFSHORE WINDMILLS – GONE WITH THE WIND !

More tax dollars  thrown down the green energy pipe dream – Drill, Baby Drill !!!    Nancy   

Gone With the New York Wind

Three more offshore windmill projects hit the rocks, despite subsidies.

April 22, 2024   By The Editorial Board
Is offshore wind a perennial infant industry? Despite receiving countless billions of dollars in subsidies over the last few decades, these energy projects are still failing to launch. On Friday three New York offshore wind projects hit the rocks owing to rising costs and technical snafus.

The New York State Energy Research and Development Authority called off contract negotiations with three wind developers after turbine manufacturer GE Vernova said it couldn’t deliver 18-megawatt turbines for the projects. As a result, the projects would have to be redesigned with more and smaller turbines that would make them noneconomic.

GE’s renewable business had planned to produce the 18-megawatt turbines but last year decided to limit turbines to a maximum of 16.5 megawatts, according to Bloomberg News. Bigger and more powerful turbines have recently been toppling over, requiring expensive repairs. This is one reason GE’s renewable business lost $1.44 billion last year, which was an improvement on its $2.24 billion loss in 2022.

The offshore wind industry received a strong tailwind from the Inflation Reduction Act, which included tax credits that cover 30% or more of a project’s cost. The law also subsidized the domestic manufacturing of components, which New York’s wind developers and their suppliers planned to exploit by making parts at new plants in the state.

BACKLASH IN EUROPE GROWS OVER MIGRATION

Saturday, November 25th, 2023

 

Europe is finally waking up to the fact that the undeveloped world is making a concentrated effort at getting to the West and their generous welfare systems.  When will we wake up ?   In the words of Margaret Thatcher  –

As Migration to Europe Rises, a Backlash Grows

Anti-immigration parties are winning elections and surging in polls

Rising migration across Europe, including the biggest surge in asylum seekers since a 2015-2016 migrant crisis, is fueling support for far-right and anti-immigration parties, potentially reshaping European politics for years.

Nationalist parties that champion a harder line against immigration are surging in polls and have entered governments in countries from Italy to Finland, as anxiety rises about sluggish economic growth and crises from Ukraine to the Middle East. The far right is polling strongly in the continent’s two largest countries, Germany and France.

This week’s victory in Dutch elections by far-right politician Geert Wilders, who has placed anti-migration policies at the heart of his political platform for the last 15 years, was a powerful sign of how voters are drifting to antiestablishment politicians, analysts said. He will still need to form a coalition in a fractured political landscape, which likely means softening some of his policy goals, but said Thursday that he wants to become prime minister.

THE PLANNED DESTRUCTION OF AMERICA

Saturday, September 9th, 2023

NYC Mayor Eric Adams Says Illegal Immigration Will Destroy The City – That Was The Point Eric

By Sam Faddis   September 8, 2023

“Let me tell you something New Yorkers, never in my life have I had a problem that I did not see an ending to — I don’t see an ending to this,” New York Mayor Eric Adams said Wednesday night in his opening remarks at a town hall-style gathering in Manhattan. “This issue will destroy New York City.”

The Mayor is right. What he does not seem to comprehend, however, is that that is the entire point of this administration’s immigration policies. It is to destroy America as we know it. This government is not run by individuals looking to serve the population of the United States and safeguard its citizens. It is, at the upper levels, run by radicals who despise this country and everything it stands for and are looking to radically restructure it along clearly Marxist lines.

This government’s official policy is not to control the border or the flow of migrants into this country. The official policy of this government is to guarantee “safe and orderly migration.”

“The Biden-Harris Administration is committed to safe, orderly, and humane migration around the world, including to the United States. We commit to working with other countries to enhance cooperation to manage migration in ways that are grounded in human rights, transparency, non-discrimination, responsibility-sharing, and State sovereignty.”

The illegals from all over the planet that are destroying New York and so much of the rest of our country are not just somehow managing to find their way here. They are being moved across Central America on what amounts to a conveyor belt of camps, often linked by contract bus service, run by a wide range of non-profits. Much of the funding for all this comes from the U.S. Government.

You are paying to bring these people here. And, then you are paying to maintain them once they arrive. You are being replaced, and you are footing the bill for the entire operation.

VICTOR DAVIS HANSON – THE BIDEN CLAN’S CON IS COMING TO AN END

Friday, August 25th, 2023

 

The Biden Clan’s Con Is Coming To An End

By Victor Davis Hanson  August 25, 2023
Despite years of Biden family and media disinformation, we are finally learning that President Joe Biden really did fire Ukrainian prosecutor Viktor Shokin for looking into state corruption involving the oil company Burisma and Hunter Biden — and ultimately Joe Biden himself.

As vice president, Biden, in his own words, bragged that he had threatened to cancel the deliverance of American foreign aid to Ukraine unless Shokin was dismissed.

So what is Congress to do now — un-impeach and exonerate an innocent impeached Donald Trump, and instead impeach a guilty Biden for essentially the same allegations?

VACUUMING UP THE CARBON DIOXIDE !!!

Wednesday, August 16th, 2023

 

Good Grief, what will the human caused climate change believers think up next ?  Just another way to spend our hard earned tax money !  Stop cutting down the forests in the Amazon, and start planting more trees around the world including in  the U.S.  I live on a one acre wooded lot, my trees are so thick you can’t see my house from the street in the spring,  summer and fall  when the leaves are on the trees and I love it as my goal is to create a bird sanctuary  as the birds eat the insects so there is no need to spray harmful insecticides.  Plus a variety of birds at your feeder is a delight.  Work with mother nature and you will create your own  healthy environment.  Nancy   

Biden Regime to Spend $1.2 Billion to Vacuum Carbon Dioxide Out Of The Air

By David Greyson  Aug. 12, 2023

On Friday, the Biden regime announced it will spend $1.2 billion in taxpayer money to vacuum the sky of carbon dioxide.

Energy Secretary Granholm boasted about the project to reporters on Friday.

“These two projects are going to build these regional direct air capture hubs,” US Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm told reporters, according to CNN. “That means they’re going to link everything from capture to processing to deep underground storage, all in one seamless process.”

The Biden administration on Friday announced its first major investment to kickstart the US carbon removal industry – something energy experts say is key to getting the country’s planet-warming emissions under control.

EXPOSING GOVERNMENT WASTE AND ABUSE

OpenTheBooks’s Adam Andrzejewski Exposes Billions in Wasteful Government Spending, Shocking Payments to China, Russia

 

“We’re borrowing money from China to pay Chinese entities—that doesn’t make any sense,” says Adam Andrzejewski, CEO and founder of OpenTheBooks.com.

Through tens of thousands of Freedom of Information Act requests, this government watchdog has compiled and made public almost all U.S. money taxed and spent, at every level of government, across all 50 states.

We discuss shocking payments to China and Russia, the problem of earmarks—what Mr. Andrzejewski calls Congress’s “currency of corruption, and the militarization of our federal agencies.

“There are 76 traditional, paper-pushing, regulatory, civil administrative agencies that have now armed up,” says Mr. Andrzejewski. “Who knew that the National Institutes of Health had a police force of over 100 officers?”
