Regulations go away when energy security becomes threatened

So the EU had strict rules on Methane emissions (Methane, BTW, is a more potent Greenhouse Gas than CO2) not only in the EU itself, but for all the suppliers of oil and natural gas around the world that sold to the EU countries….

THey were serious about it because Climate Change.:   METHANE IS A POTENT GREENHOUSE GAS AND WE MUST DO SOMTHING TO COMBAT Climate Change. WE REALLY NEED TO DO THIS FOR THE WORLD….

Until, of course, the blockage of the Straits of Hormuz…

Now they are relaxing or choosing not to enforce those regulations in order to keep their people warm and to allow them things like cars, and airplanes, and electricity.

Funny i how such convictions can waver when it comes to a choice about being warm and living in the dark, innit?

Primary Day today

Here in Indiana it is Primary Election day.

 

I always wondered why the state pays for the primary election, as it is essentially a sorting process for the Republicans and Democrats, to determine who will participate in  the actual election later this year.

Seems to me that the political parties should pay for the costs of their selection process rather than the taxpayer.

 

 

Somali Fraud

Seems that the Fraud in Childcare by the Somalis has been known for at least 10 years… 

And the investigators were told at the time to do nothing….(and they, like good government employees, followed their orders).

 

Before Tim Walz, in fact. (although he did shut down the Anti-Fraud office)

 

Interesting

 

Someone needs to go to jail.

Lots of someones.

We shall see if anyone does actually serves time (or is even indicted) and is forced to return whatever monies have not been sent to Somalia. ….If Kash Patel can stay sober long enough and his employees can actually do their jobs.

 

(PS, the “Quality Learing Center” shut down only a few weeks  after Nick Shirley’s viral video popped up, and lots of other Somali Daycares did the same….Odd, that, innit?)

 

May Day

Once a Spring Festival brought to the United States by european immigrants, it is now yet another Socialist Holiday, with the “Celebrations” having nothing to do with the original reason for the celebrations.

In Chicago, the CTU (Chicago Teachers Union) has so much pull that they got the city to bus students from class to the socialist celebrations, and forced the Chicago Public Schools to give every teacher that wants one, a day off so they can attend.

Socialists always bastardize whatever existing holidays that exist for their own use.
