Common Sense, Current Affairs, Liberal Logic, Man-made Climate Change Isn't Real 15.02.2020 No Comments“Climate change as religion, not science. A generation of apocalyptic climate education has made what was a matter of temperatures and scientific modeling into a cultural identity. No dissent is tolerated, and the solutions must be radical and immediate”

Protesting students get a personal lesson about fossil fuels.
When most people think of Oxford, what comes to mind are images of bright minds debating quantum physics or the existence of God. But even the brainiest sometimes need a lesson in common sense.
That’s exactly what the bursar at St. John’s College—the most richly endowed college at Oxford—delivered when he responded to students occupying his 15th-century quadrangle and refusing to leave until the college divested its oil-company shares. The students want the college to sell the more than $10 million of its endowment now invested in Shell and BP, and they want it now.
The Times of London reports that bursar Andrew Parker made them a counteroffer. “I am not able to arrange any divestment at short notice,” he wrote. “But I can arrange for the gas central heating in college to be switched off with immediate effect. Please let me know if you support this proposal.”

I was proud to serve for over six years as Attorney General under President Barack Obama, when we fought to protect voting rights, expand marriage rights for same-sex couples, protect the environment, and make our criminal justice system more just. We can return to the path of that kind of progress, but the next president can’t do it alone. We also need to flip the Senate, secure our House majority, and win back state legislatures across the country.
Doing so depends on whether we can come together to give Democrats up and down the ballot the resources they’ll need to win from Colorado all of the way to Washington, D.C.
We know one thing for sure: Donald Trump cannot be trusted with another four years in office. Any one of our Democratic candidates would put our country on a better path, and it’s important that we as a party do everything we can to lift our future nominee to victory once that person receives our party’s nomination in July.
The DNC is putting grassroots organizers in key battleground states, building tech and data systems to mobilize voters, and running a 24/7 voter protection hotline — all things that are critical to winning down-ballot races and the presidency this year. We may not know who our candidate will be yet, but we know that she or he — as well as all Democrats down-ballot — will depend on the infrastructure the DNC is building right now.
Sincerely,
Eric
