Environmental groups sue Biden to block 3,500 oil and gas drilling permits
CNBC ^ | 06/16/2022 | Emma guy
Posted on 6/17/2022, 12:45:48


A coalition of environmental groups this week sued the Biden administration in an effort to stop more than 3,500 permit applications from energy companies to drill for oil and gas on federal lands.

The groups argued the administration hasn’t considered the damage that climate-changing carbon dioxide emissions from drilling does to endangered species, and that permit approvals in Wyoming and New Mexico violated federal laws including the Endangered Species Act.

The lawsuit is the latest attempt by environmentalists to pressure the administration to halt new drilling permits. Earlier in his term, Biden sought to commit to his campaign promise to suspend new drilling on federal lands, but was thwarted after legal challenges from GOP-led states and the oil industry.

Oil and gas industry representatives said that multiple rounds of environmental analysis are conducted before an oil and gas permit on public land is issued, and that environmental groups have several opportunities to file suit during various stages of planning.

It's like China, which produces twice as much GHG as us - and is producing more and more while we produce less and less - doesn't exist.  ::)

How millions of lives can be saved if the US acts now on climate
Researchers have now calculated how many people could be saved from heat-related death if the US takes meaningful action

The rapidly shrinking window of opportunity for the US to pass significant climate legislation will have mortal, as well as political, stakes. Millions of lives around the world will be saved, or lost, depending on whether America manages to propel itself towards a future without planet-heating emissions.

For the first time, researchers have calculated exactly how many people the US could save by acting on the climate crisis. A total of 7.4 million lives around the world will be saved over this century if the US manages to cut its emissions to net zero by 2050, according to the analysis.

Schizophrenic piece from the "advocacy journalism" AP.

Biden's optimism collides with mounting political challenges
President Joe Biden’s top political advisers are bracing for big election losses in November

WASHINGTON -- Democrats are going to hold onto the House after November's midterm elections. They will pick up as many as four seats in the Senate, expanding their majority and overcoming internal dissent that has helped stifle their agenda.

As the challenges confronting President Joe Biden intensify, his predictions of a rosy political future for the Democratic Party are growing bolder. The assessments, delivered in speeches, fundraisers and conversations with friends and allies, seem at odds with a country that he acknowledged this week was “really, really down,” burdened by a pandemic, surging gas prices and spiking inflation.

Biden's hopeful outlook tracks with a sense of optimism that has coursed through his nearly five-decade career and was at the center of his 2020 presidential campaign, which he said was built around restoring the “soul of America.” In a lengthy Oval Office interview with The Associated Press on Thursday, Biden said part of his job as president is to “be confident.”

“Because I am confident," he said. “We are better positioned than any country in the world to own the second quarter of the 21st century. That’s not hyperbole. That’s a fact.”

US Secretary of State says he promotes LGBT agenda ‘in every conversation’ with Saudis
Life Site News ^ | Jun 17, 202o | Jack Bingham
Posted on 6/20/2022, 9:28:37 AM by Salman

WASHINGTON, D.C. (LifeSiteNews) — U.S. Secretary of State Anthony Blinken told the press on Thursday that he pushes LGBT “rights” with his Saudi Arabian counterpart “invariably, in every conversation.”

According to Politico, the statement came during the State Department’s first-ever “briefing for LGBTQI reporters,” with Blinken explaining that he has had “real engagement” with Saudi Foreign Minister Faisal bin Farhan Al-Saud when talking about protections for the LGBT community in the Middle Eastern nation.

Despite ardently pro-LGBT U.S. President Joe Biden saying he was going to treat Saudi Arabia like “the pariah they are,” Blinken said the administration is seeking to “recalibrate the relationship,” part of which is advancing the homosexual agenda.

Blinken went on to herald the proliferation of the LGBT agenda across the world, mentioning the “remarkable” turnout of people at pride events in Lithuania, and the successful push by the United States to have homosexual acts decriminalized in Botswana.

According to the State Department, the U.S. government has funded approximately 10,000 LGBT “human rights defenders” through its Global Equality Fund, whose partners include the Royal Bank of Canada, Deloitte, Hilton, and Bloomberg L.P.

U.S. Navy Releases Video Training Sailors to Use ‘Right’ Pronouns, Not ‘Misgender’ Colleagues
breitbart ^ | 06/22/2022 | Joshua Klein
Posted on 6/22/2022, 12:47:05 PM by DFG

A newly-released Navy training video teaches sailors to use the “right” pronouns, “show that we’re allies,” and create “a safe space for everybody,” while instructing service members on how to proceed after having “misgendered” someone.

The official U.S. Navy video posted by Air Force Staff Sergeant John Vannucci, according to The Defense Visual Information Distribution Service (DVIDS), begins with two rainbow-clad hosts — both Navy civilians — introducing their personal pronouns and announcing they are there “to talk about pronouns.”

“Using the right pronouns is a really simple way to affirm someone’s identity,” one host says. “It is a signal of acceptance and respect.”

In order to “go about creating a safe space for everybody,” the host suggests using “inclusive language.”

“Instead of saying something like, ‘Hey, guys,’ you can say, ‘Hey, everyone,’ or, ‘Hey, team,’” he says.

The other host then explains “another way that we could show that we’re allies and that we accept everybody” when she suggests including pronouns “in our emails” or when introducing oneself.

If one has “misgendered” another, she continues, “correct yourself and move on or you accept the correction and move on.”

INSANE: CNN Argued Recession Proclamations Are Racist
NewsBusters ^ | 7/6/2022 | Joseph Vazquez
Posted on 7/6/2022, 11:26:57 A


CNN attempted to fool Americans into believing the reason the U.S. economy isn’t officially considered in a recession is because eight “white economists” didn’t say so. Confusingly, CNN also wrote that if leading economists do end up declaring the U.S. to be in recession, it’s also because those economists aren’t racially sensitive.

CNN senior markets reporter Nicole Goodkind published a story with an insane, racist headline that needs no explanation: “Who decides if the US is in a recession? Eight White economists you've never heard of.” What does race have to do with anything? Goodkind complained liberal economists like Moody’s Analytics Chief Economist Mark Zandi and investors like JP Morgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon could warn about an impending recession “until they're blue in the face, but their guidance will remain just that — an economic forecast.” Then came the kicker: “That's because, in the United States, the economy isn't broadly and officially considered to be in a recession until a relatively unknown group of eight economists says so.”

In a very late response to the question asked in the thread title, I don't think liberalism is a mental disorder any more than I believe conservativism is. IMO, what can be a mental disorder is extremism.
In general society seems to be becoming more and more polarized which is leading to mental disorders.
Sanity is finding a balance between liberalism and conservatism. Right now, it seems like the mental health of many people is worsening.

I think I was half joking when I started this thread, but time has shown that it is a legitimate question.  That "both sides do it" approach does not fly here.  That's always the position liberals/progressives take when confronted with inappropriate, crazy, or criminal behavior by their own. 

I know you're not going to admit this, but you know that some of the things happening today are insane.  Biological boys and men competing against girls and women?  Pushing "gender affirming care" for kids, including amputating body parts?  You know that stuff is insane. 

And it's not just that people believe and do this stuff, it's trying to force everyone to accept it.

And it's not just that people believe and do this stuff, it's trying to force everyone to accept it.

After all this time we've known each other, it seems you really don't get me or what I believe. If you believe I don't find some of what goes on today insane, you are dead wrong. 

Let's look at each of the three situations you mentioned. Biologically, a boy cannot be a girl, nor can a girl be a boy. Therefore, if someone changes their gender identification regardless of the direction, there should be a separate category in competitive sports for them because they are indeed unique both physically (via hormones and surgery) and emotionally, likely a result of hormone manipulation.

And while we’re on the transgender subject. I am appalled that some parents go along with the whims of their children regarding gender and even encourage/approve of them medically.

The only exception to this IMO is when a child is clinically genderless as is the case with those who are intersex or hermaphrodites. Even then, parents should not rush to a decision that requires choosing their child’s gender for them. When they are legally mature enough (adults) they can make that decision for themselves. Sometimes these so called 'freaks of nature' decide to just remain as they were born. When you think about this objectively. If someone is a hermaphrodite then that is their unique gender, just as those who are born male or female. Learn to accept and love who you are.

You see me as liberal. I don't entirely agree. My position on almost every subject is fluid. There are areas where I tend to be more liberal and others where I lean towards a conservative view, and as I said my position can and does change. I am a product of a lifetime of experiences and influences. As are all people.

Your comment about forcing others to believe as you do make me laugh. There are several threads about COVID on Getbig that give those at the extreme platforms which they use to demean and discredit anyone who is in opposition to their position on COVID, vaccines and masks. One immediately comes to mind is the 'wake up sheeplike people thread'. What so funny about this is that those on either side of this issue are sheep if they don't think, act and make decisions as individuals.

Okay, my reply is becoming one of the incredibly long ones, so I'll stop here and leave you with this thought, whatever happened to 'live and let live' and turned into 'you are with us, or you are against us'?

Coach is Back!
