Trump Victory: The Beginning of the End of Global Climate Scare
It doesn’t get better than this. Trump is one hundred percent skeptic,
no pandering. Say goodbye to the fantasy that CO2 controls the planets
thermostat. Click to enlarge. See PDF for page 2. Finally, a leader says
No to refueling the Global Green Gravy Train. It will still take years
to slow and unpack, because it is a pagan religion and a 1.5 Trillion
Dollar industrial freight machine. But yesterday the gargantuan train
split at a junction and the people stuck on Big-Green roller will be
able to watch the other train take off as it dumps the dead-weight
carbon truck with square wheels. As Ma

Malcolm Roberts, Tim Ball and Tony Heller held a press conference to
release Roberts 42-page reply to the CSIRO. [OR download the PDF here].
Essentially, despite us spending billions of dollars to reduce CO2 in
the hope we change the weather, the CSIRO can only provide irrelevant
and weak evidence, and nothing that demonstrates consistent cause and
effect. CSIRO can provide nothing to show that they are not just
exploiting natural climate cycles for political purposes. (See here,

Trump closing the deal: “The only thing that can stop this corrupt force is you — the American people”
A brilliant, polished, excellent advert — cuts like a sabre to the
only point that matters. h/t to the great Scott Adams, who says: 1.
Trump delivers his lines perfectly, like an experienced actor. We
haven’t heard him like this before. You probably didn’t think he had
this in him. He stays calm and assured, but not cocky. That is an
effective counter-framing to Clinton’s framing of Trump as an u
US Election: Avalance of corruption found against Clinton
As I said, “It’s the Corruption, Stupid“. The US election is far

Oh for the luxury of an election about policies! But when corruption

The US election continues to surprise. It breaks all the rules. Who

The Al Smith charity dinner, a weapons grade roasting of Clinton
