Just One Thing: Enviros are panicking
The radical enviros at the Washington Post and NY Times are panicking now that so many people are figuring out what a disaster things like net zero and wind subsidies and attacks on fossil fuels are for real people. Over the weekend, the Post ran a piece bemoaning that many companies are not living up to their prior promises to, for example, not issue insurance to fossil fuel projects. Wonder how many jobs it would kill if they did. And the times ran a laugh-out-loud funny piece about a couple of rich millennials who bought a $2.6 million weekender beach house and rebuilt it with green stuff like hemp insulation…at the low low price of $1200 per square foot. I wonder if these tools, including Joe Biden, know how wildly out of touch they are with real Americans.

You may need a subscription for this, but here's the short version: Trump is more likely than anyone might have expected a year ago to win the election and Trump is likely to be as dictatorial as he can get away with.

A listener sent me this. It's probably the only thing you need to see all day.
