With the imminent danger of climate change, this a blessing in disguise for Germany.

And to think that, once upon a time, German scientists figured out the coal gasification process and how to upscale it to commercial size.

I agree completely. It just crazy that the Russians are the more dependable supplier of energy for themselves and for export. It’s only been a year and half for US energy to go from budding world dominance to world’s energy putz. It unbelievable how damaging DC can be to the American consumer.

There will also be a ban on portable air conditioners, heaters and radiators among the general populace

Notice the qualifier. Does this mean the politicians exempted themselves?

Wow. Hot water is basic sanitation. Cold water doesn’t kill germs and viruses etc.

“Fire up the C-57s again. Berlin Airlift 2.0 will commence soon.”

Do you perhaps mean C-54s? That, and the venerable C-47, was the most common aircraft used in the airlift. The C-57 Lockheed Lodestar was a limited production aircraft (only about 20 were manufactured in all).

The aircraft in your photo is a C-47.

Can’t they just switch on their thousands of giant wind turbines to HIGH and get more electricity?

The German delegation laughed when Trump warned them exactly this would happen.

Trump didn’t lead anyone to believe anything of the sort. Where did you get that from, and how is Trump suddenly responsible for what happened under Biden?

Thank goodness the French don’t have to worry about hot water usage. They don’t take baths anyway. The Brits too have that once a week thing going. Already saving on gas!
