Trumka Jr. Is the son of a union thug - former head of United Mine Workers and the AFL/CIO. I am sure Jr. is extremely knowledgeable about consumer safety and didn’t get his position because of his family name.
I joke. Sorry.
When I first saw his name tied to that story about gas ovens, I immediately knew the story was true. Trumka’s name gave the plan away.
Like the other non-conspiracy theories discussed here, never believe the gubment story. the gubment is not led by the best and brightest (I HATE that term), but by wanna be dictator bullshit artists.
1. It is disgusting to see how cavalier Lefty "science" gets when they say mercury, a deadly poison, just evaporates into the air. As if Mercury vapor in the Earth's atmosphere was a benign result.
Yet CO2, plant life, is bad ?
2. In any place where you get cold weather, incandescent light bulbs provided light and heat. You used to be able to keep outdoor water pumps warm with incandescent bulbs, but by government edict, that practical solution is gone. So now you can buy your LEDs from China.
Tell me again what country built our enemy - China ?
When lil’ Bushie announced the plan to phase out incandescent bulbs, I kinda lost my mind and went to every Lowe’s/ Home Depot/ Sam’s/ et al within a hundred miles and cornered the market. To this day, I still have an upstairs closet full of them. My grandson and his friends have literally never seen them anywhere else and they look at me like I’m crazy when I say the light is prettier than LEDs.
"...when they say mercury, a deadly poison, just evaporates into the air. As if Mercury vapor in the Earth's atmosphere was a benign result."
It isn't scientific, but it seems somewhat like, "...mostly peaceful protests..." while cities burn to the ground because of the "protesting" arsonists...
Here in NZ we have had two tropical cyclones in the past month dropping huge volumes of water over the North Island. Major flooding. Slips, bridges washed away, power lines brought down.
Fortunately no major loss of life although every death is a tragedy.
Cue the lefty chant: Climate change. Climate change.
True.
Climate always changes, always has, always will, and not necessarily to our advantage.
No matter what we do, whatever hair shirt we pull on, however many windmills we build, the weather will do what it does regardless.
There will always be extreme weather events.
We could have spent money clearing drains. We could have toughened our infrastructure, put more power lines underground.
But no, we built hundreds of cycle ways instead.
We promoted electric cars and apparently will ban the import of petrol and diesel vehicles sometime over the next decade.
Today slips are being cleared by diesel diggers and bulldozers, while electric cars sit idle because the power lines are down.
I would have thought that the function of government was to prepare for actual inevitable disasters rather than waste billions on feeding unicorns.
Foolish rightwingers? I rate this as untrue. Other fact-checking organizations would disagree, but I have a superior rating and checking system. It's called common sense.
With this beautiful opus and Tucker's monologue last night, could it be any clearer that the government hates Americans, especially white ones. Unfortunately, the young uneducated population will embrace Marxism until they cannot. As the readers of this column and others with right of center views die off at a rate equal to the WWII vets, our world will not turn into 1984, but rather that of the future in Well's Time Machine.
Yes, to that. But the wider trend is that virtually all western liberal governments hate their voters, and want a better class of voters! They hate us. Plain and simple. They disrespect us and don't do what they say they will do when they're running for election. At some point, the whole system needs to crash.
Tucker has had people from Palestine on his show two nights in a row, talking about what is happening in their town. I think he is one of the few to do this. You really have to feel for the residents of this town. Life is never going to be the same again for them.
If I believed that future elections would be equitably and responsibly administered, I might like to think that President Clouseau's administration's response just might turn Ohio as permanently red as Texas, for a generation or more...
"Remember, the answer to the question what did socialists use before they used candles is electricity."
Spot on!
Similarly, the answer to the question, "What did wealthy socialists drive before they drove electric cars?" is gasoline.
Extending this, a little – if CFLs, and LEDs turn out to be equally bad (but for different reasons), with the common denominator being electricity (the vast majority of which is generated by coal), and electricity is banned eventually, the answer to the question, "What did wealthy socialists drive before they drove horse-drawn buggies?" is, of course, electric cars.
In science class we rolled mercury around in our hand to seemingly turn gold rings into silver. Who knew the teacher was putting our lives at risk?! And now, 50 years later, some classmates have died. I wonder if I should sue.
Poor Mrs. Kerbopple, robbed of her retirement by a class-action of students looking for some income to support their therapy sessions. In the end, each received a lump sum of $3.48.
“… and replace them with wax cylinders that provide light as they burn down.”
That is awesome!!
Made you think for just moment, didn’t it?

I wondered about the Trumka connection. Whatever would he possibly know about gas stoves? This government hates its people. Plain and simple.
Haha--"wanna be dictator bullshit artists"!
To be fair natural gas has killed a number of miners now they blame it for minors with asthma
“What’s the difference between a conspiracy theory and reality? About six months.”
The poll had me choosing between two whoppers. I needed a third choice - both.
Life is a series of tough decisions
My Totally Scientific Polls are not as simple as I look
That was one of the best. Made you think

Now they have to put defrosters on traffic lights in cold climates
In this area the traffic lights have little solar panels to power the defrosters.
That’s to create jobs.
Conspiracy has been a thing since before Saul promised not to kill David. Psalm 35 has some great prayers for salvation from your persecutors.
I must be a foolish right winger too.

Right on, Ross. Me too.

So, the hedge terms are repeated ad nauseum in order to convince the public of The Narrative.

The government will never do that again? You forgot your /sarc tag, Don. I could hear the way you typed it! Great column again. Huffington Post? WOW!
Sarcasm is lost when you have to disclose that it is sarcasm. /sarc
Really?
Well some people are so dim that if you don't use the sarc tag, they take you seriously.
Not Don's readers surely? What is sad is that the Babylon Bee now predicts the future instead of it being a satire site....
They have a great one today about Joe’s physical exam
Yup, the Bee calls it for sure!
Foolish right-wingers do what lefties don’t. Use their brains and logic, then arrive at a correct conclusion.
I am hoping I am still here 15 years from now when HuffPO reminds us that we used to think electric cars were safe.

I could take this poll all day long.
Biden won, what a disgrace.
You should post a poll on how many of your readers have rolled a drop of mercury around in the palm of their hand
In science class we rolled mercury around in our hand to seemingly turn gold rings into silver. Who knew the teacher was putting our lives at risk?! And now, 50 years later, some classmates have died. I wonder if I should sue.
Poor Mrs. Kerbopple, robbed of her retirement by a class-action of students looking for some income to support their therapy sessions. In the end, each received a lump sum of $3.48.
"I wonder if I should sue."
Wonder no more! Of course, you should. Why not? Surely, somewhere there is some enterprising parasite who would take on your case.
Haha--"enterprising parasite"!
That’s the first thing I thought of when I read about mercury! It’s the only thing I remember from high school science class.
