@Cernovitch skewers another MSM lowlife in the ongoing series....

Are Biden's advisors beginning to realise that embracing AOC and the Democrat Green New Deal is a gift to Trump?

https://amp-theguardian-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/amp.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/apr/19/joe-biden-alexandria-ocasio-cortez-democrats?

"Progressive favorite Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez hasn’t made an appearance on Joe Biden’s live stream. The New York congresswoman hasn’t cut a video message for the man Democrats will send out to defeat Donald Trump in November, and she hasn’t sent out fundraising emails on his behalf.

As the party aligned behind Biden last week in a show of unity, with endorsements from Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren and Barack Obama, Ocasio-Cortez has yet to offer a full-throated endorsement of his presidential bid. While the 30-year-old politician intends to vote for Biden in November, her active support will be harder won."

“Unity isn’t a feeling,” Ocasio-Cortez said in an interview on ABC’s The View this week. “It’s a process and I think that Biden can go further.”

The Trumps must be pinching themselves at how well this has worked out for them. They offered themselves up to their resentful enemies, and those enemies have so little self-awareness they've soiled their own reputations and boosted the Trumps.

they've soiled their own reputations and boosted the Trumps.

So Trumps' approval rating must be up, right?

There's going to be a *lot* more of this before the US elections are over in November.


Phil

remind us what the Gallup polls said 5/6/7 November 2016?

The Pause Century

40. There has been essentially no global warming during the 21st Century. This reality has been called ‘The Pause’ by some, who claim that the real rise in temperature is actually going on, but that for some unexplained reason, has paused for a while.

There is debate about the ‘Pause,’ with some saying that there were gaps in data; the variations are too small to be statistically significant; etc. If this is so, how come climate change enthusiasts have been so utterly certain of their position and their figures for the past 20 years plus.

https://blogs.spectator.co.uk/2017/06/truth-global-warming-pause/

41. Initially ‘Global Warming’ was the only public phrase used. Then when ‘warming’ predictions did not occur, the term ‘climate change’ was introduced. So the late 2017 freezing conditions on the US East Coast were attributed by many groups to ‘Global Warming’ because they pointed out that the ‘warming’ was really causing the cold ‘climate change.’ (Note all the Al Gore global warming jokes and cartoons which started to appear in magazines, as cartoonists and journalists started to absorb the irony). Note: As a physicist I know that changed thermal balances in the atmosphere can lead to altered winds etc, which can lead to cooling etc. So there is some scientific basis to arguments that temperatures can go up and down. But frozen airports and other extreme weather is not climate change. It is ordinary extreme weather. Many years ago author Mark Twain, whose real name was Samuel Langhorne Clemens (1835–1910), said: “Climate is what you expect but weather is what you get.”

42. The concept of ‘Extreme Weather’ was also introduced by green extremists to add to the public fear factor. In fact; weather records (worldwide) show no evidence of any weather today that is different to the past couple of hundred years or more. The period over the last century of the highest incidence of hurricanes striking the US coast was the 1940’s. Large hurricanes striking the US coast over the last few years were not unusual, but by bad luck a couple of them happened to strike particularly highly populated areas, resulting in dramatic TV footage.

From 1876 to 1879 a terrible drought struck China, resulting in their worst famine ever, which killed over 10 million people. If that happened today it would be blamed on industrial CO2.

43. You cannot measure the ‘severity’ of a weather event by the magnitude of the insurance claim. Insurance claims have been used by Greenpeace et al, to try to ‘prove’ that unusual extreme weather is leading to greater devastation than before.

44. It is scientifically well-known that the Sun varies in intensity and in magnetic activity. This variation takes place on a Solar Cycle which is linked to the incidence of Sunspots. Sunspots have been regularly scientifically recorded since 1760. But they were observed regularly well before 1760 as well.

"But back in January"

Had the WHO done its job to get medical experts into China to objectively assess the situation on the ground and call out China’s lack of transparency, the outbreak could have been contained at its source with very little death.

Mid April is not "back in January". Caribou move. Who knew?

People ask me when I started to self-quarantine thinking that this reality only stemmed from COVID. I’ve been hiding under my desk since November 2016. I’ll only come out when @JoeBiden is president. Biden is the strong, clear-thinking, eloquent leader the world needs.

The 'we thank China for their transparency' tweet was from Jan 24.

It does seem that Chinese transparency is about as clear as Climate Science. Those that do manage a peek through the unbelievable claims, just see more.murk.

When will all of the “reporters” who have received Noble Prizes for their work on Russia, Russia, Russia, only to have been proven totally wrong (and, in fact, it was the other side who committed the crimes), be turning back their cherished “Nobles” so that they can be given ....to the REAL REPORTERS & JOURNALISTS who got it right. I can give the Committee a very comprehensive list. When will the Noble Committee DEMAND the Prizes back, especially since they were gotten under fraud? The reporters and Lamestream Media knew the truth all along.Lawsuits should be brought against all, including the Fake News Organizations, to rectify this terrible injustice. For all of the great lawyers out there, do we have any takers? When will the Noble Committee Act? Better be fast!

The Noble Committee? It becomes increasingly difficult to separate the illiterate green-crayon ramblings of a paranoid conspiracy theorist from the tweets of the President of the United States.

As democracy is perfected, the office of the President represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day, the plain folks of the land will reach their heart’s desire at last, and the White House will be occupied by a downright fool and a complete narcissistic moron

but loved your description of
