why why why do leftists believe electricity is MAGIC????

We know that now because of what Biden did to all of President Trump’s executive orders.
Gee, that was easy. Glad the glowbull warming problem is finally solved.
Just mail the keys to China, Jao.
They can achieve by fake accounting.
He’ll be carbon neutral long before then.
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz..
Wake me up when the green dream/nightmare is over.
Meaningless lunacy.
“become carbon-free by 2045”
Cool! Nuclear Power! Yeah, baby! Way to go, Brandon!
“..why why why do leftists believe electricity is MAGIC????...”
Because the moronic POSs think the Law of Conservation/1st Law of Thermodynamics is “racist” due to it being promulgated by nasty old dead white men. Therefore, it must be false. The only other viable alternative is..well...MAGIC!!! /s

Thank you, King Biden.
Now, here’s your butterscotch pudding.
Joe Biden will be carbon neutral well before 2050. He won’t be around to see a carbon neutral US
Pipe dream. Most of this unministration is on the pipe....
yeah that will be stricken down
Imaginary solutions for an imaginary problem.
It’s a big scam.
I just had a vision of Radar bringing the order to Biden and shoving it in front of him, flipping the pages while Biden signed.
