Germany’s ‘Green’ Energy Disaster Is A Warning To The United States


As gas hit historic highs, leftists keep arguing it’s a perfect time to transition to a “clean energy” economy. “Now is the moment to double-down, triple-down, and quadruple-down on clean energy,” Sen. Elizabeth Warren tweeted on Friday, linking to a CNN piece that contends “wind and solar” have been “bailing out” Texas during its recent heat wave.

In the piece we learn that wind, solar, and nuclear have “powered about 38% of the state’s power in 2021, rivaling natural gas at 42%.” That’s quite the sleight of hand; tantamount to bragging about how Babe Ruth (60), Lou Gehrig (47), and Joe Dugan (2) combined for 109 home runs in 1927. True, but deceptive.

Subsidized solar power generates less than 2 percent of Texas’ energy during the year. Nuclear power generates around 10 percent and wind nearly 20. Coal accounts for nearly 15 percent and natural gas for more than 52 percent of electricity generation. It would be far more accurate to say that coal, nuclear, and gas are bailing out Texas.

No nation has anything approaching a clean energy economy. And those that have promised to build one are all struggling.

More than a decade ago, after a major earthquake caused the Fukushima nuclear disaster, German chancellor Angela Merkel announced her nation would close down all its nuclear power plants, at the same time quadrupling down on the decarbonization of its economy—energiewende. Once there were 17 reactors in Germany. Now there are only three remaining, all of which are scheduled to go offline by the end of the year.

The move to “clean energy”—without nuclear—has accomplished three things:

1. It has prompted Germany, and the rest of the EU, to begin relying more heavily on Russian natural gas as it “transitioned.” Putin, who has begun demanding EU nations pay for their energy in roubles, is now able to undercut the European economy at will.

2. It has created the highest global electricity prices per household in the world. In 2019, German households were paying 34 cents per kilowatt-hour compared to 13 cents in the United States. The price of energy has doubled since 2000, when Germany first mandated decarbonization, an effort that forced energy companies to purchase long-term inefficient renewables at high, fabricated prices.

3. It has meant the burning of coal. Even before Russia began cutting off supply, Germany was more reliant on coal than...

DeSantis Says White House Lied When It Claimed He ‘Reversed Course’ on COVID-19 Policy


Florida governor Ron DeSantis (R.) said the White House and media outlets lied about Florida's health policies when they claimed he "reversed course" by permitting health care providers to order COVID-19 vaccines for children under the age of five.

"Not surprised the White House would lie, definitely not surprised that legacy media would amplify the lie because that’s what they do," DeSantis said during a Monday news conference.

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre on Friday said that after "repeated failures" to order vaccines, DeSantis "reversed course" and decided to allow health care providers to order the shots for children between six months old and five. But Florida surgeon general Dr. Joseph Ladapo said the state has always allowed providers to place orders for vaccines. DeSantis said Thursday that Florida discourages COVID vaccination for young children and would not place orders for the vaccine to be distributed to them, but the state would not block providers from acquiring it themselves.

"Doctors can get it. Hospitals can get it. But there's not going to be any state programs that are going to be trying to get COVID jabs to infants and toddlers and newborns," DeSantis said. "That's not where we're going to be utilizing our resources."

Florida is the only state in the country that did not place advance orders for the pediatric vaccines, a position media outlets including Forbes, CBS News, and McClatchy DC claimed DeSantis reversed after Jean-Pierre's comments on Friday. DeSantis’s approach to infant vaccination mirrors that of Scandinavian countries including Sweden, which decided not to recommend vaccinating children under 11 due to the "low risk for serious disease for kids," and Denmark and Norway, which do not offer vaccines to children under five.

The Food and Drug Administration approved Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna’s vaccines for children five and younger on Friday, but only 18 percent of parents are eager for their child under five to receive the...

This cheesy Sunday-school lesson on "pronouns" is an official U.S. Navy training video


Yeah, we're doomed.


Yes, that is a real military training video made for the United States Navy by Staff Sgt. John Vannucci. The two individuals in the video are and Jony Rozon and Conchy Vasquez, both engineers at the Naval Undersea Warfare Center in Newport.

It's amazing how the new woke videos are like the low-budget church videos for kids made back in the '80s and '90s. It really is a religion.

Meanwhile, this is what the Chinese navy is up to:

For Pride month, the CCP celebrated the launch of its third aircraft carrier, the first to rival our own and the first built entirely in China
"HAHA but it's made in China!" you jest.

Yeah, laugh it up, fuzzball.


When you get yeeted into the afterlife because the Navy was too busy dancing with rainbow flags to stop the incoming missiles, make sure to tell the Egyptians, Babylonians, Medes, Carthaginians, Romans, Umayyads, Mongols, Ottomans, Spanish, Russians, and British how powerful nations are never toppled by...
