Brandon is campaigning on this, yes? Do the Dominion machines have battery backup?

This is why the RATs cheat in elections. This is why they flood the country with illegals and give them free stuff...for a while anyway. The are just meat to send to the polls for a vote.

People don’t get excited to vote for things that damage themselves like this would.

Rabid eco-freaks will ruin civilization in order to save it. Oxymorons all of them. Natural gas is clean and plentiful. Coal should probably be phased out, but not before something can take its place efficiently and economically.

The end goal is to cull the herd of the weak.

As President, I would demand the project plan for bringing green energy to fruition. I would like to see the key stakeholders, the risk management plan, the business case with the costs, scope and schedule and see status reports monthly posted on the EPA site.

We the People have the right to this since it is being paid for with our money.

The Halfrican’s “War on Coal” flipped my SE Ohio district to solid red.

Unintended Consequences.

“By the way, EPA plans to unveil soon another rule to reduce CO2 emissions from existing gas-fired plants, so some of them may also have to shut down. Meantime, China has added about 200 gigawatts of coal power over the last five years—about as much as the entire U.S. coal fleet. The Biden fossil-fuel onslaught will have no effect on global temperatures.”

Man made climate change is not only a lie, it is evil!

Any law, regulation or rule based on this lie is also evil.

They are trying to control people (around the world) by using this lie to change our societies and push us back into a per-industrial age.

And to think, I was worried about what would happen if there was an EMP - never thought our own government would devise something worse

In order to provide adequate electricity during nights, cloudy skies and still winds the same fossil fuel generating capacity must be built and ready to fill the shortfall. There will be horrendous blackouts when people need electricity the most.

The intensity will be legend, and America’s enemies will take advantage of us.

What needs banning is the EPA as well as several other totally useless and fascist agencies.

The end of “fossil” fuels is the end of food.

We’re determined to eliminate fossil-fuel power.

After the Chinese kill our grid system for a few days everyone holds burning wood for light and heat.....

They abuse the use of stupidity

I am considering a move to Redding CA.

The city’s power comes from Shasta dam and is $.14/kwh around the clock.

But somehow I fear that will one day be declared unfair and illegal...even though it’s 100% hydro.

AND a second brand new EPA reg mandates ONLY production of EVs!

question: what did kommies use for transportation before mule-drawn carts?

answer: gasoline-powered vehicles ...

And exactly how are these morons going to power all of their EV's?

The stupidity is breathtaking...unless EV's are just a talking point for their larger agenda.

FUBO and FUJB

How quickly the lessons of the last Texas blackout are forgotten. During that blackout not only was there no electricity but also no water and no sewage treatment. Frozen and refrigerated food in stores spoiled and hospitals functioned only on emergency power. Pity the fools driving EVs. Imagine that devastation in large areas of the country.

The ONLY thing which truly allowed the removal of coal from the grid was cheap natural gas, due to the invention of hydro-fracking

In 20 years, gas as a percentage of electricity generation from natural gas went from 15% to nearly 45% now in 2024

The main thing that allowed "renewables" to grow was strict government mandates funded with massive debt at zero interest rates and cheap raw materials from China. That situation has changed.
