Progressives and liberals are in a panic over Ron DeSantis because he's tapping into a huge shift in public support for law and order and against LGBT

 Gallup shows the huge shifts in 2023 from 2022.

Support for the death penalty is up 5-points nationally. Support for LGBT is down 7-points. Those are massive changes.

And on most of the issues tracked, which are barometers of libertinism in the United States, support is also down, from birth control to fornication, to teenage sex and divorce.

Win or lose, DeSantis represents the backlash against the left which is sweeping the country.

LOL: In September 2009 peak oil disciple Ugo Bardi channeled 1972's The Limits to Growth gang saying "we are in trouble with crude oil"

From his

“Peak Civilization”: The Fall of the Roman Empire :



As things stands, we seem to be blithely following the same path that the Roman Empire followed. Our leaders are unable to understand complex systems and continue to implement solutions that worsen the problem. As the wise druid was trying to tell to Marcus Aurelius, building walls to keep the barbarians out was a loss of resources that was worse than useless. But I can see the politicians of the time running on a platform that said, “Keep the barbarians out! More walls to defend the empire”. It is the same for us. Tell a politician that we are in trouble with crude oil and he/she will immediately say “drill deeper!” or “drill, baby, drill!” Negative feedback kills. ...

we are going where the laws of physics are taking us. A world with less crude oil, or with no crude oil at all, cannot be the same world we are used to, but it doesn’t need to be the Middle Ages again.

This is great: Ron DeSantis doubles down on gender-fluid Donald Trump


 DeSantis: Donald Trump Was "A Pioneer Of Injecting Gender Ideology Into The Mainstream"

The Ls, Gs, and Bs are screaming like stuck pigs, but it's their own fault for including the Ts.

T is a bridge too far.

All you need to know about the hottest day ever

 Tuesday’s global average temperature was calculated by a model . . . to estimate daily average temperatures starting in 1979.

“This is our ‘best guess’ of what the surface temperature at each point on earth was yesterday,” [Paolo Ceppi] said.

 

WaPo, of course. 


Meanwhile, back in the real world of actual measurement, the highest maximum at KGRR so far in 2023 was 91 degrees F, on three days in June.


And the hottest 4th of July was way back in 1911. Yesterday made it to 89.


Maximum temperature observed has been in decline here for decades.

 


 




















CNN doesn't report that this shop in Nantes, France, was targeted by the rioters because it traffics in Catholic and patriotic French goods

 Lying by omission is the specialty of the media.

You might call it another form of canceling.

They don't care about the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.

Your first obligation is never to pay for such "news". Your second obligation is to boycott its advertizers.

Rival Republicans (and a Democrat gay mayor too busy babysitting to do his Biden job) LOL, polling 2.4% and too low to count
