EPA to shutdown 'GREEN NEW SCAM'

 American Action News:

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Lee Zeldin said Wednesday on Fox News that the Trump administration will put an end to the “Green New Scam,” adding that Democrats will no longer be able to waste billions in taxpayer dollars.

Since Zeldin’s confirmation in January, the EPA administrator has implemented massive budget cuts to the agency, triggering Democratic pushback against the new leadership. Playing a clip of Democratic Maine Rep. Chellie Pingree expressing her “deep concerns” about the Trump administration’s approach to the climate crisis, Fox News host Laura Ingraham asked Zeldin on “The Ingraham Angle” for his thoughts.

“The death of the Green New Scam is upon us, and there are people who are congressional Democrats who are not going to be happy with our actions,” Zeldin said. “I am here to fight for, as part of that Trump mandate earned November 5, the people across this country who have seen a Green New Deal that, if fully implemented, will cost tens of trillions of dollars. People who cannot afford to be able to heat their home, to purchase a car. Small businesses are struggling to operate. People have been put out of work, and it’s going to end.”

I am among those who question the Big Green agenda.  It looks like an excuse for spending money on projects of dubious importance.

“By overhauling massive rules on the endangerment finding, the social cost of carbon and similar issues, we are driving a dagger through the heart of climate-change religion and ushering in America’s Golden Age,” Zeldin wrote in a Wednesday Wall Street Journal op-ed. “As a result, the cost of living for American families will decrease, and essentials such as buying a car, heating your home, and operating a business will become more affordable. Our actions will also reignite American manufacturing, spreading economic benefits to communities.”

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

Is the F-35 obsolete?

Headline USA: Pentagon Fires Back after Musk Calls Its Most Expensive Project ‘Obsolete’ 'Yeah, as I'm sure you can appreciate, Mr. Musk is, currently, a private citizen, I'm not going to make any comments about what a private citizen may have to say about the F-35....'   ... ... Drones appear to be replacing jets for many operations.  The Russia-Ukraine war is an example of that.  Drones are often hard to detect and can be used for intelligence operations as well as for attacking enemy targets.  It would not surprise me to see drones engaging other drones in combat.  They also cost much less than manned fighters.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t...
