It’s amazing how often we hear that the Democratic party’s platform can’t be “We’re Not Trump.”

Of course, I agree that Democrats have to stand up for lower prices, quality education, affordable healthcare, etc. But right now, the critical agenda item is removing this criminal sociopath from public office.

Until Donald Trump rose to power, I probably would have said climate change.

Now, I would say it’s world fascism, as the world’s most powerful nation, at least at this point, is no longer a democracy in any meaningful sense of the word.

The planet is faced with rule by sociopathic dictators with absolute authority.

As we’ve noted in the past, the idea of capturing CO2 from the atmosphere is completely unfeasible, since 99.96% of the air around is something other than CO2 (mostly nitrogen).  However, there are environments that change this equation radically, cement plants being one of them, where the concentration of CO2 emissions is as high as 30% (versus .04%).

Now, this brings the subject of synthetic fuels into the realm of possibility.  Sure, if you want to make gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel, you’ll need two other things: hydrogen (which can come from electrolyzing water), and a considerable amount of energy, as these processes are heavily endothermic, meaning that energy must be supplied from external sources.

The good news is that we have enormous amounts of off-peak wind and nuclear that are wasted every day, and here’s the best solution in this arena: Doty WindFuels.

With each passing day, there are fewer and fewer American voters who believe the bullshit at left.

Is Trump working hard to stay out of prison? Enrich himself and his family?  Of course.

Could he possibly care less about anything else? Obviously not.

What’s the thought process of people in the rest of the developed world when it comes to visiting the U.S.?

Would you or I want to visit some country with a deeply corrupt regime that is systematically committing atrocities all around the globe, while its leader is lining his pockets?

I’m glad I don’t own a resort in New England that counts on a flow of visitors from Canada.  If I were a Canadian, I’d be thinking I’d rather visit hell.

Part of the challenge facing Trump is that a large and growing number of congressional Republicans have reached the limit of their tolerance for the lies, the reckless stupidity, and the criminal corruption.

Since they are abandoning the sociopath en masse, that makes them, in Trump’s mind, RINOs (Republicans in name only).

It’s too soon to see where all of this is going to settle out, but God willing, it looks like the GOP may be headed back towards some level of normalcy in terms of honesty and sanity.

Of course, one wonders about the true motivation of these congresspeople.  Have they found a certain amount of personal integrity, or have they simply come to the realization that they’ve become unelectable?

No, they’re not. I’m an EV advocate, but I’m not a liar.

V2G (vehicle to grid) may lie in our future, but we’re nowhere near to achieving it.

If you’re looking for an indication as to how far the United States has fallen, what our president said at left here is a good measure.

To call it “childish” is an insult to little kids everywhere.

Oh, he’s simply a liar, to be sure.  But let’s give him credit: that’s his one and only job, i.e., to sow complete BS into the minds of those least able to process it and see it for what it is.

He’s the male version of Karoline Leavitt: quite talented at lying at every turn to support the criminal-in-chief.

People are free to believe what they want, but there are various points at which all this crosses the line, e.g.,

  • Teaching creationism in school as biological, geologic, or astronomical science, or
  • Convincing people that thinking for themselves is the work of the devil.

The human species has enough stupidity floating around in it without injecting more.
