The American automakers, General Motors, Ford Motor Company and Chrysler (now owned by Stellantis) are all being struck at once (at selected plants) in a first-ever industry-wide strike.
President Joe Biden likes to be called the Union President. He claims to identify with lunchpail, blue-collar workers, who have traditionally been union members, at least in the Northeast.
So it shouldn’t be a stretch to say he is sympathetic to the plight of union members in the current United Auto Workers strike. But does that mean he’s to blame?

Comments closedClimate Alarmists have been claiming for years that “the Science is settled,” so there’s no longer any reason to discuss Climate Change; we must ACT. Why, they say, 97% (or some such number) of scientists agree that climate change is an existential threat.
But a group of 1,600 scientists from around the world just blew a hole in that argument. The Climate Intelligence Group (CLINTEL) has released a declaration denying the existence of a climate emergency and instead highlights the beneficial nature of carbon dioxide.

I was able to talk about my book series, Backlash and Age of the Kingdom, the first book of which, Quest for a King (available now).
I’ve looked at clouds from both sides now
From up and down, and still somehow
It’s cloud illusions I recall
I really don’t know clouds at all. – Joni Mitchell
A recent article by Thade Andy on ClimateChangeDispatch.com highlights criticism of the climate-emergency narrative by Nobel-Prize-winning physicist Dr. John F. Clauser. He calls climate alarmism “a dangerous corruption of science that threatens the world’s economy and the well-being of billions of people.”
That is the opposite of the accepted narrative and he emphasizes some of the same things I have mentioned, namely: could there be positive outcomes from climate change as well as negative ones?

There are at least two assertions which require backing up with facts:
Continue reading Canaries in the Mines Comments closedArticles this week declared that California is moving forward with a total ban on the sale of gasoline powered vehicles by 2035. Everyone knows that California is a state on wheels, with around 2 million vehicle registrations each year, so that is a huge move that will have far-reaching effects. Technically it is new gasoline-powered vehicle sales that are banned. Used gas vehicles could still be sold and traded. Currently, only 12% of new cars sales in California are plug-in electric vehicles.

The song is all about bad things happening that presage the end of the world.
Continue reading I See a Bad Moon A-Risin’ 1 CommentWhen President Joe Biden was campaigning, he repeatedly promised to end fossil fuels in America. There’ll be “no more drilling, including offshore,” he said. “No ability for the oil industry to drill. No more pipelines.”
Since his election, he has taken many steps to make drilling for oil more difficult to impossible. The point is to force Americans to adopt electric cars. But electric vehicles are MUCH MORE expensive than conventional gasoline and diesel vehicles. Stopping drilling for oil will make them even more expensive.
