@Tweeterpat33838 @MonicaCrowley And maybe add autocrat, plutocrat, grift, and narcissist to the vocab list. However, I also recommend go have a local good beer, support local businesses, & treat your neighbors kindly. Off to spend my energy on useful pursuits, May the Fourth be with you!

@Tweeterpat33838 @MonicaCrowley I don't envy billionaires, although I wonder how some of the intellectually vacuous ones got where they are. Lucky for Scott Bessent that he really was funded by Soros! I also suggest those using terms like Marxist, socialist, & communist should know the dedinitions & diffs.

@Tweeterpat33838 @MonicaCrowley 101.2 mil$ for trips to 47's properties so far this term. On track for 300+mil$ this term, 187.5xsalary. He makes money on these trips, too, from events, ecret Service fees, etc etc. He & his fam have cleared over 4bil$$ so far off this term. Why would he care about 400k$ ?

@JoScheff @MonicaCrowley 45-47 destination isn't the issue & re 'the most efficient flightpath'(?!)' that is up to ATC. He doesn't take a salary unlike most other presidents. Every president racks up costs to travel. Obama was quite a taxpayer drain during his 8 years of allowing Iran free reign.🤭3.2.1.

@Tweeterpat33838 @MonicaCrowley Was 47 on his way to Andrews, & if so was that the most efficient flightpath? On his way to FL for how many more millions of $$ on our tax expense account? How does loyalty to the most corrupt US prez in history make YOUR life better?

@JoScheff @MonicaCrowley Every president uses Marine One to fly to Joint Base Andrews to board Airforce One but go ahead and wonder if it makes you feel better. How does hating The Great MAGA King make your life better?

@jasonllevin Venus, since he clearly wants a runaway Greenhouse Effect. Because "nobody thought I could do it, no one's ever seen anything like it before"

Memphis is the second Blackest big city in the country, and it’s about to be gerrymandered within an inch of its life so a white Republican can represent it in Congress. This was exactly the thing Congress was trying to address with the Voting Rights Act. tennesseelookout.com/2026/05/01/gov…

Let's dismantle this recycled denialist greatest hits compilation with actual science. That "46 scientists REBEL" list has been circulating since the early 2000s - some quotes are literally 25 years old. Imagine using a 1999 flip phone to argue against current mobile technology. Dr. Bogataj's CO2 lag quote? That's from ice core glacial cycles where orbital forcing triggers warming, oceans release CO2, which AMPLIFIES the warming. It's literally evidence FOR CO2 as a greenhouse gas. Climate Science 101. "No acceleration in sea level rise"? Cool 1990s quote. Current data: 1993-2023 rate is 3.4mm/yr vs 1.7mm/yr previous century average. That's DOUBLE. Math still works. Dr. Christy claiming "most IPCC scientists don't agree"? The IPCC involves THOUSANDS of scientists. Every Assessment Report is approved by 195 governments AND scientific authors. That's consensus with receipts. And his own UAH satellite data shows +0.14°C/decade warming since 1979. RSS satellite: +0.21°C/decade. Both datasets SUPPORT warming. "The Sun is cooling" - you're absolutely right! Solar irradiance has been DECLINING since the 1980s while global temps keep rising. You just provided evidence AGAINST solar forcing. Thanks for the self-own. Let's check those "natural forcings": Volcanic? Near zero. Solar? Declining. Orbital? 10,000-year timescales. Meanwhile CO2: 280ppm (pre-industrial) → 425ppm (2024). Isotopic signature? Fossil fuels. Case closed. IPCC projection accuracy: The 1990 First Assessment projected 0.3°C warming by 2020. Actual? 0.3°C. Nailed it. 1995 projection? Nailed it. 2001? Nailed it. These models work. "Wild swings then global cooling"? Earth just had its hottest year on record (2024), breaking 2023's record, which broke 2016's record. The 10 hottest years EVER recorded? All since 2010. That's not "wild swings" - that's a trend with a flamethrower attached. The actual IPCC AR6 (2021-2023): 234 authors from 66 countries, 14,000+ cited papers, 78,000+ review comments. Confidence level on human-caused warming? "Unequivocal." Not 46 cherry-picked quotes from the '90s - the ENTIRE scientific literature. Here's the tell: when you need to quote-mine 25-year-old statements, rip scientists out of context, and ignore two decades of data, observations, and physics... you're not doing science. You're doing apologetics. The emperor has no clothes? The emperor is wearing a thermometer reading 1.2°C above pre-industrial. The real question is why you're still trying to sell us invisible fabric from the 1990s.

🚨BREAKING!!! 46 IPCC Scientists REBEL: The Climate Narrative is Crumbling from Within!🚨 Forty-six scientists tied to the IPCC have stepped away or spoken out because their evidence-based views clashed with the official alarmist script. They weren’t “listened to.” Their data didn’t fit the doom-and-gloom story pushed in the Summaries for Policymakers. Don’t trust me, read their own words here! ⬇️ Dr. Robert Balling: “The IPCC notes that ‘No significant acceleration in the rate of sea level rise during the 20th century has been detected.’ This did not appear in the IPCC Summary for Policymakers.” Dr. Lucka Bogataj: “Rising levels of airborne carbon dioxide don’t cause global temperatures to rise…. temperature changed first and some 700 years later a change in aerial content of carbon dioxide followed.” Dr. John Christy: “Little known to the public is the fact that most of the scientists involved with the IPCC do not agree that global warming is occurring. Its findings have been consistently misrepresented and/or politicized with each succeeding report.” Dr. Rosa Compagnucci: “Humans have only contributed a few tenths of a degree to warming on Earth. Solar activity is a key driver of climate.” Dr. Richard Courtney: “The empirical evidence strongly indicates that the anthropogenic global warming hypothesis is wrong.” Dr. Judith Curry: “I’m not going to just spout off and endorse the IPCC because I don’t have confidence in the process.” Dr. Robert Davis: “Global temperatures have not been changing as state of the art climate models predicted they would. Not a single mention of satellite temperature observations appears in the IPCC Summary for Policymakers.” Dr. Willem de Lange: “In 1996 the IPCC listed me as one of approximately 3000 ‘scientists’ who agreed that there was a discernible human influence on climate. I didn’t. There is no evidence to support the hypothesis that runaway catastrophic climate change is due to human activities.” Dr. Chris de Freitas: “Government decision-makers should have heard by now that the basis for the long-standing claim that carbon dioxide is a major driver of global climate is being questioned; along with it the hitherto assumed need for costly measures to restrict carbon dioxide emissions. If they have not heard, it is because of the din of global warming hysteria that relies on the logical fallacy of ‘argument from ignorance’ and predictions of computer models.” Dr. Oliver Frauenfeld: “Much more progress is necessary regarding our current understanding of climate and our abilities to model it.” Dr. Peter Dietze: “Using a flawed eddy diffusion model, the IPCC has grossly underestimated the future oceanic carbon dioxide uptake.” Dr. John Everett: “It is time for a reality check. The oceans and coastal zones have been far warmer and colder than is projected in the present scenarios of climate change. I have reviewed the IPCC and more recent scientific literature and believe that there is not a problem with increased acidification, even up to the unlikely levels in the most-used IPCC scenarios.” Dr. Eigil Friis-Christensen: “The IPCC refused to consider the sun’s effect on the Earth’s climate as a topic worthy of investigation. The IPCC conceived its task only as investigating potential human causes of climate change.” Yet the grift rolls on. New grads, indoctrinated in universities, keep repackaging the same scares for the next generation. “Consensus!” “The Science says!” Endless control through manufactured ignorance. Meanwhile, nature doesn’t care about the narrative. Natural forcings rule. The Sun is cooling. Jet stream gone meridional. Cosmic rays surging, seeding clouds. Result? Wild swings, then global cooling. The emperor has no clothes, and the scientists who know it are finally speaking up. 🔥 Original work from The Dragons Breathe Substack: open.substack.com/pub/thedragons…

The President of Peace now wants to invade Cuba. Apparently kidnapping the President of Venezuela and bombing Iran isn't enough for the President of Peace.

YOU’RE like a pirate. WE are not like pirates. America troops are not supposed to be like pirates. The damage he is doing to the reputation of our country—and our military especially—is severe, damaging and lasting. The world not longer trusts America or our military. Because of him. It will take a generation for us to repair all the damage he’s done. Our enemies are celebrating.🚨🇺🇸

I see many posts talking about how 'resource intensive' wind and solar are. Check my math, but the world extracts, processes, transports, and burns 100 million barrels of oil a day, about 14 million metric tons worth. My best estimate of the weight of all the wind turbine blades installed ON EARTH today (caveat, used Claude to help estimate, check my math) is 20 million metric tons. So, 1.5 days worth of global oil consumption. AND THEY LAST FOR 20+ YEARS. Don't let people scare you with big numbers. There is nothing on earth more resource intensive than the oil and gas indsutry. It's just that when we burn oil and gas, the waste ends up mostly in the atmosphere (and your lungs), not in a landfill. As if that is somehow better?

@RodeoProfessor I'd say "worth protecting" is an understatement. The National Parks and wild lands are the jewels of the US (my opinion, anyway) .

The Trump Admin proposed a 37% cut in FY2026 and a 25% cut in FY2027. I realize I’m an annoying single issue poaster and voter but this isn’t right. The FY27 budget slashes construction and maintenance, so jobs for our young guys. Our National Parks are worth protecting.

The Air Force made a deal to buy interceptor drones from a company backed by President Trump’s sons. So the Trump family will benefit from government contracts as Trump continues the war against Iran. Nothing about this is normal or ethical. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
