White House: We’re Not Trying to Harm Coal, We’re Trying to ‘Speed Up’ to Economy that Has ‘Less Pollution’
Breitbart ^ | 04/26/2024 | IAN HANCHETT

Posted on 04/26/2024 6:39:15 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

On Thursday’s broadcast of “NewsNation Now,” White House National Climate Adviser Ali Zaidi denied that the Biden administration is attempting to shut down the coal industry or slow any industry down, and stated that the issue is “about how do we speed up to a stronger economy, a more durable economy, and one that, frankly, puts less pollution into the sky?”

Host Connell McShane asked, “[C]oal executives, for the most part, are coming out and saying this — we can’t meet this. So, the real goal here is to kind of shut our industry down. Is that what’s happening?”

Zaidi answered, “No, the real goal here is to make sure that we take pollution out of the skies so folks can breathe easier, so that we can tackle the climate crisis. And we can do it at the same time as growing our economy and delivering cheap and affordable and reliable energy to more and more Americans.”

It’s from the same mindset as “The beatings will continue until moral improves!”.

"WTH does that even mean??"

Translation: yes, we're shutting down coal, but maybe enough of you rubes will buy the line of BS we're spewing.

“delivering cheap and affordable and reliable energy to more and more Americans.” But, but, but isn’t coal cheap? Can’t it be burned cleanly with modern scrubbers? Isn’t solar expensive? Don’t acres and acres of solar panels take up valuable farm land? Don’t windmills kill birds? Don’t windmills require a lot of costly maintenance? And last but not least, by forcing so-called “alternative” energy sources down our throats, you are in fact shutting down the coal and petroleum industry, and speak with forked tongue.

It means the White House has a Pakistani lawyer, born in Pakistan, destroying one of the cornerstones of the American economy.

“The results of the latest focus group.”

Yep, they are MUCH SMARTER now (can we say the same, LOL?). Obama DEMONIZED coal, and with that formerly Democrat states became far redder than they’ve ever been.

Now, just lie about what you’re doing. Say the truth to close company, but publicly BLAME THE VICTIMS, in this case, the coal industry. No different that emptying out the prisons and then saying to a woman who was raped because of that “Why were you walking alone in Manhattan at 10 AM, on a work day?”

The “White House” sure does have a big mouth but absolutely no credibility. The “White House” can KMA.

You're trying to totally get rid of it...here in the USA

In the meantime, China will build 50 new coal plants this year.

denied that the Biden administration is attempting to shut down the coal industry

They lie, as usual. Both Obama and Biden have done as much as they can to destroy the coal industry. They simply don't care about the people who mine the coal. In fact, they barely consider them as people at all, not to mention the people who use coal power for their many electrical needs.

Coal is dying (because it's dirty to burn), but it should be allowed a slow and natural death. Capitalism works if allowed.
