The African immigrant on the left has founded seven companies, directly and indirectly created 800,000 good paying jobs, created thousands of new American millionaires, developed reusable orbital rockets and brain chips that are giving independence to paraplegics, saved free speech, and can’t stop talking about how much he loves America. The African immigrant on the right married her brother to commit immigration fraud, facilitated the theft of money intended to feed hungry kids, has used government to enrich herself, praises terrorists, and can’t stop talking about how much she hates America. Leftists want the African immigrant on the left punished with punitive taxes and deported, but will try to run over law enforcement and get shot in the face in support of the African immigrant on the right.

Esta foto ganó el Pulitzer en 1960: un sacerdote da la extremaunción a un campesino cubano antes de ser fusilado tras un ‘juicio’ de cuatro minutos por negarse a servir al régimen de Castro. La ejecución fue dirigida por el "Che Guevara". Esta es la imágen del socialismo.

Another Berkeley professor told the author: “In my second-year engineering class, a student asked me to explain why 1/2 1/3 = 5/6…. The lecture had to stop while I explained fractions.”
Berkeley math professor: “Today, the more successful a public high school is at preparing its students, the lower its graduates' chances of getting into top UC campuses like Berkeley and San Diego.” Berkeley admitted 45% of applicants from a high school where nearly 94% of “students failed to meet the state standards in mathematics.” It admitted less than 14% of applicants from a school where “nearly 100 percent of its students in AP Calculus BC pass the national exam with a perfect score of 5.”

Modest warming since the end of the Little Ice Age in 1850 supports billions of people better than any previous cold era ever did. Yet, a weird paradox dominates our modern climate discourse: we celebrate ancient warm eras as golden ages, but frame today's mild shifts as inherently catastrophic. History shows that warmth has always delivered prosperity. Look no further than Roman vineyards flourishing in Britain or Viking farms thriving in Greenland. Conversely, cold spells almost always bring hardship - marked by the Thames freezing over, expanding Alpine glaciers and systemic crop failures during the Little Ice Age (roughly 1300–1850). When you compare the Holocene’s historical rollercoaster, the Roman Warm Period (250 BC–AD 400) and the Medieval Warm Period (900–1300 AD) stand out as eras of booming agriculture and expanding empires. The Little Ice Age was a harsh, multi-century counterpoint that brought widespread famine and societal strain across Europe. Throughout these dramatic ups and downs, ice core data shows atmospheric CO₂ was remarkably flat, hovering steadily between 270 and 285 ppm. These profound climate convulsions happened purely on the back of natural variability - solar output, volcanic aerosols and oceanic-atmospheric circulation flips - all without CO₂ needing to budge. On a broader scale, today's blips are superimposed over a gradual, long-term cooling trend that followed the Holocene Thermal Optimum thousands of years ago, when temperatures were frequently 0.5°C to 1°C warmer than today. Earth’s climate has always been dynamic on multiple timescales, operating independently of any single variable, such as CO₂. Natural precedent proves that warmth isn't inherently destructive. Humans are marvelously adaptive and the biosphere is inherently resilient. The real challenges ahead aren't dictated by a climate driven panic, but by our astonishing capacity for adaptation.

Colombia only became the source for America’s flowers when American citizens were forced to stop growing after the U.S. signed a “free” trade deal w/ Colombia that devastated the West Coast flower industry. Take the drive between Pescadero and Monterey, CA and you will see the remnants of a once-proud regional economy: The dilapidated greenhouses and now-fallow fields were once a $4 billion industry, accounting for 65% of America’s cut flower consumption. And then W Bush rammed a “free” trade deal that destroyed a whole way of life for tens of thousands of American citizens. @ananavarro and other ruling elites will tell lies to keep you subjugated to foreigners who inundate your neighborhoods with criminals, rapists, and the mentally unwell. Colombia can keep their flowers. Americans will grow their own.
Most of the flowers imported into the US, come from Colombia. Happy Valentine’s Day, America. 🌹

We now find the intermittent energy harvested from wind and sun is physically unable to replicate the dense, reliable power of hydrocarbons. Trying to force wind and solar to deliver baseload power has failed. McKinsey Global (2022) estimates the full cost of a net-zero transition by 2050 at $275 trillion—running at an astronomical $9.2 trillion every year. This utopian experiment has already squandered trillions in global capital, triggering an economic shockwave that has sent Western nations into a general decline. There is no climate apocalypse in sight. In fact, NASA satellite data confirms the world has been steadily greening for two decades, driven by a CO₂-led global vegetation recovery. There was never a reason for such destructive haste to dismantle coal, oil and gas energy, because there was no urgent crisis. Geologists have already mapped vast, proven reserves of untapped hydrocarbons that offer a natural bridge to the future: * Coal: 1.06 trillion tonnes (approx. 132 years remaining). * Natural Gas: 7,299 trillion cubic feet (approx. 143 years remaining). * Crude Oil: 1.65 trillion barrels (approx. 53 years remaining). The actual volume of untapped hydrocarbons could easily be two or three times as much—enough to power humanity for another three centuries. This abundance allows ample time for adequate forward planning until truly viable, next-generation alternatives are invented. Image: Two decades of satellite-verified biomass expansion.

Any return to ice age conditions could trigger a crisis unmatched in all human history. Earth is still technically in an ice age and average global temperatures of around 15°C degrees are still much lower than the long-term global average of 16°C to 18°C A global warming scare has been running for 40 years, yet 10% of the world's total land area is still covered by glacial ice. From a human perspective, the combined land area of every town and city on earth is still only 3% of the total. Ice covers an area of 15 million square kilometers (5.8 million square miles), roughly a third of its full extent during the peak of the Last Glacial Maximum (26,000 to 19,000 years ago). This was the most recent time in Earth's history when global ice sheets were at their greatest extent. The Antarctic ice sheet is still the largest and thickest ice formation on Earth by far, reaching up to 4.8 kilometres (about 3 miles) in depth. It holds 90% of the world's ice by volume & accounts for around 85% of total global glacial ice cover. Antarctica spans roughly 14 million square kilometers (5.4 million square miles) and covers about 8.3% of the total land surface. Land area is only 28% of earth's surface. The oceans cover 72% to an average depth of 2.3 miles, forests cover 31% and deserts 33%. The oceans contain 86% of the global carbon reservoir and 91% of all retained heat energy; by contrast, the atmosphere holds a mere 1 to 2% of each. The past 40 years has featured a global warming campaign raising fears of an impending climate crisis, chiefly based on forecasts of soaring temperatures and a global climate crisis. However, the fact remains that the Earth is still technically in an ice age, with ice cover at both poles all year round. We still live in the Quaternary Glaciation, which has lasted 2.58 million years. The Quaternary Glaciation is a more severely cold extension of the Late Cenozoic Ice Age, which has lasted for 34 million years, since the time of the original glaciation of Antarctica. The chief causes were due to orbital anomalies (the Milankovitch cycles), the isolation of the Antarctic continent when Australia and South America shifted northward, as part of global tectonic changes. The last great ice age that was similar to today was the Karoo Ice Age (also known as the Late Paleozoic Icehouse), spanning approximately 360 to 260 million years. This is one of the five major ice ages in Earth's history. All modern human societies and every meaningful invention has occurred during the current Holocene warm interglacial period, beginning 11,700 years ago. The previous warm interglacial was the Eemian (130,000 to 115,000 years ago). Temperatures in the Eemian were also 2°C warmer than today and African megafauna and crocodiles lived in the Thames valley. The generally accepted average extent of ice age interglacials is around 15,000 years. So perhaps we should be considering our next move if the next glaciation comes early.

Treating a minor shift in a trace gas as a 'code red' planetary emergency—while ignoring the massive planetary buffer systems—is a failure of perspective. The oceans are a vast thermal and chemical flywheel. Because they are so vast and deep, their capacity to absorb, store, and redistribute heat and gases operates on centuries-long timescales. This dwarfs the short-term models of centralised bureaucracies. For example, the oceans contain 86% of the world's global carbon reservoir; yet the atmosphere holds a mere 1% to 2%. Science itself shows that human-produced CO₂ adds only around 3.4% to the full annual global carbon cycle. But natural climate variation has been enlisted by globalist power brokers to drive a campaign blaming CO₂ for a future catastrophe. The roles of water vapor, clouds and oceans are being bypassed. They don't suit the agenda. Yet oceans cover 72% of the Earth's surface to an average depth of 2.3 miles and contain 91% of all the world's retained heat energy. The atmosphere retains hardly any. They are so vast that all variations in concentrations of soluble CO₂ are readily absorbed into the marine sink. As oceans warm they retain less CO₂; when they cool, they retain more. This is known as Henry's Law. Natural processes heavily influence how much CO₂ resides in the atmosphere at any given time. The human contribution, while measurable, is a fractional perturbation within a massive, dynamic system dominated by water vapor, cloud albedo and the sheer thermal inertia of the oceans. This also overlooks the complex, self-regulating feedback of cloud albedo. As evaporation increases, cloud cover expands, acting as a natural planetary shield that reflects incoming solar radiation back into space—a chaotic, balancing mechanism that a simplified, CO₂-centric model cannot fully capture. Water vapor is the Earth's most abundant greenhouse gas, making up to 4% of the atmosphere by volume in the tropics. This is 40,000 ppm compared with CO₂ at roughly 420 ppm. Yet water vapor has been minimised by a simplified political narrative because, unlike well-mixed atmospheric gases, it is not uniformly distributed—its concentrations are constantly shifting over the vast expanses of the seas. We seem to know more about the topography of the Moon than the geography and dynamics of the deep oceans. The tropics and rainforests are accepted zones of peak water vapor. These are also primary zones for storm activities—like monsoons and seasonal rainfall—essential to atmospheric turbulence and heat redistribution. Basic physics reveals that water vapor and clouds account for a vast majority of Earth's natural greenhouse effect—roughly 70% to 85%—while CO₂ is a minor shadow at around 9% to 12%. Its role is important to the atmospheric mix, but this doesn't mean it runs the world's climate. Water absorbs and traps infrared radiation on a massive scale, playing the dominant role in weather, cloud formation and precipitation. The 'global warming or bust' agenda minimises the importance of cloud albedo and regional complexity. By flattening water vapor into a simple mathematical slave to CO₂, global models ignore the chaotic, self-regulating dynamics of cloud formation (which reflects sunlight and cools the earth) and localised tropical dynamics. A decentralised, water-dominated climate driven by regional ocean currents and chaotic cloud formations cannot be managed, taxed or centralised. This offers no financial leverage for global governance. A well-mixed, uniform trace gas like CO₂, however, provides the perfect metric for a centralised system and a whopping (and unnecessary) $275 trillion grid duplication.

THE U.S. HAS 3X MORE IMMIGRANTS THAN ANY OTHER COUNTRY ON EARTH. 1 of 6 immigrants on the planet live here. No other major developed nation comes close. The outcome is clear: the U.S. absorbs a disproportionate share of global migration & ~9/10 new jobs go to them right now.
