Another Loud Warning

 

The warning signs of climate change have been there for a while now. More and stronger hurricanes, massive forest fire infernos, droughts and now something called a super El Nino all confirm a rapidly warming global climate. Too many people ignore such things, content to just change the channel, Keep scrolling- looking for something more agreeable or simply tune the warnings out; lost in the minutiae of day-to-day life.  The recent flooding in Nepal is also a warning only much louder. The toll and frequency of these warnings will only increase as time goes on. We continue to ignore them at our peril. 

Nepal's Flood Was A Warning The World Had Already Received

I think this will go down as the most important news story of 2026. Sadly, I think this is another dire warning most of the world will again choose to ignore. This will be even bigger than Trump's Iran debacle.

Don't believe the hype coming out of the fire hose of bullshit from the White House. If you are looking for the first emperor of the United States, this clown is not it.

The Boondoggle Administration III Election Lies

 

King Donald spoke last night. Did he speak of the war in Iran? Did he speak of our faltering economy? We know he did not talk about climate change, because that's a hoax, right? No, he wasted everybody's time repeating the same old tired lies about elections. He knows his party is going to be crushed in the midterms. He will do anything to keep that from happening. The most important question in 2026 is will we let that happen? A civil war, two world wars, acts of terrorism and through internal turmoil, we have never “canceled elections.”  I don't know about you cats, but I don't think 2026 is a good time to start “canceling elections.”  A president has no such power but that will not stop this one from trying. Just for fun and maybe those in the back, here are a few readings debunking over and over Donald's election lies.

To be fair, I have significant doubts he won fair and square in 2024. I think Elon and like-minded individuals put their thumb on the scales to swing 2024 to King Donald.  Will that come out one day, who knows? While we are here, let's give a big round of thanks to all the non-voters in 2024. You made Elon's job much easier. Without you, we would not be here today!
