To those who have been with us since our inception in 2009, as well as to those who are just joining us now for the first time, here’s a brief summary of what we at 2GreenEnergy are all about. We offer:
• A platform on which we connect cleantech entrepreneurs with sources of investment capital. (more…)
All this stupidity is not sustainable. It’s hard to know exactly when it will end, but slashing $1 from the federal budget to cut into a revenue stream 17 times larger and alienate tens of millions of people will not last forever.
The top brass of the U.S. military has an extremely negative viewpoint on the president and his personal character, which raises the question why his supporters don’t seem to care.
The author of the meme here posits that narcissism is required to be an anti-vaxxer, because without it, people would simply listen to the scientists who have spent their lives studying the subject.
True. But the same could be said about any area of inquiry. The reason I don’t believe that humans and dinosaurs were here on Earth at the same time is not that I’ve studied this subject personally; it’s that I’m content to listen to the paleontologists.
Fox News is still garbage, but, as shown at left, it appears to be making an effort to inject some level of truth into its coverage.
For those wishing a “news” source that makes no attempt in that direction whatsoever, try Newsmax. It simply parrots whatever Trump says about tariffs, climate change, vaccinations, the Supreme Court, DEI/wokeness, annexations of foreign countries, mass deportations, etc.
American life in the 1950s had a number of terrible features, in particular de jure racial segregation and the assumption that war was required to stop the spread of communism. Like all progressives, I don’t want to go back there either.
Yet I want to point out that, in the middle 20th Century, this country:
Wasn’t dominated by the corruptive influence of Big Money in its largest industries–oil, pharmaceuticals, weapons, etc.
Wasn’t led by a criminal sociopath.
For those of you too young to remember, “I Like Ike” was the campaign slogan of Dwight D. (“Ike”) Eisenhower, who was a Republican, but one from an era long before this hateful insanity.
National Priority #1: Get rid of Trump.
National Priority #2: Get to the bottom of Trump’s relationship with Putin.
At left are the words of retired Army officer Fred Wellman, a graduate of West Point and the Harvard Kennedy School, who served 22 years in the Army, primarily as a combat as an aviator.
I can only add to what he says that national security and defense clearly means nothing the U.S. president. It’s all about loyalty. Everything else means zero.
If Trump were to fire Hegseth, the president would be forced to find another stooge, who could possibly be an even greater threat to our nation and embarrassment to the White House.
Here is Patty Murray, serving her sixth term as a United States senator from Washington state, expressing a concern.
You’re demanding an answer? Well, that’s excellent.
But, if you haven’t figured out that the Trump administration enjoys absolute power and, for some reason, reviles all American veterans (“suckers and losers”), and especially women, you apparently haven’t gotten the memo.
This beautifully written piece at left reminds us that most Americans are not capable of discarding the bullshit to which we are exposed on a daily basis, and, in particular, how little threat the transsexual population represents to us.
Three conclusions:
Think for yourself,
Raise your children to be kind, and
Live and let live.
“Pessimism” is the wrong word here, insofar as it concerns the future. It’s a tendency to believe that the worst will happen; it’s a lack of hope or confidence in the future. While Americans may be pessimistic, what the meme here is about is the present, not the future.
The 58% of U.S. households that own stock are reporting about a current fact. My portfolio is off 9% since Trump took office. I’m not thrilled by this, but, in addition, I’m pessimistic, meaning that I’m worried that the economists are correct, and that all of Trump’s lunacy is going to send the U.S. into a deep recession, and that 9% could turn into 50%.
