Google let dozens of ads run on articles denying the science behind global warming despite a new policy against doing so, according to a report released Wednesday. The nonprofit Center for Countering Digital Hate identified 50 climate denial articles with Google-run ads active on them published after November 8, the day the new policy kicked in. Google initially announced it would add climate change denial to the list of topics it limits or restricts advertising alongside in October. “In making their initial announcement, Google appears to recognise that they have played a part in making climate change denial a profitable  CORRECTION*

Did you know that even questioning climate change is now considered to be 'Hate'? Expect Google to crack down hard on the few articles that slipped through.

The only ones "denying" climate change are the leftist idiotic evil people that want to make it stop changing no matter what the cost to human civilization is that they are gaining power over. The rest of us know that nature will take its course no matter what we do. God had a plan and he is sticking to it.

FTA: There is broad scientific consensus that the climate is warming and that human-driven greenhouse gas emissions are responsible for that change. I remember that there wasn't just a 'broad consensus' but a dogmatically held belief.... that heavier things fell faster than lighter things.

There are two types of denial. Denying that climate change exists and denying that there is anything we can do about it. I'm suspicious of the former and confident of the latter.

Had an ancient Google denied a voice to Copernicus, leftists would still believe the earth was the center of the universe. Actually, I think a lot of them still do.

Though the climate alarmists want to deny it, there was a medieval warm period and a 19th century little ice age. Until they started trying to "adjust" the temperature records of the past these were universally acknowledged facts. Those occurred long before humans were producing much in the way of co2 emissions from "fossil" fuels. They were completely natural events, no human activity had any noticeable effect. Yet this current warming trend, one of countless others that have happened in the past, is allegedly all or mostly due to human activity. So what caused all the other warming and cooling cycles? CO2 makes up only 0.04% of the content of the atmosphere. 4% of 1%, a tiny amount. It is one of the weaker greenhouse gases. It is not and cannot be the main driver in any warming trend. Period. OK, Google, censor that!! Let's go Brandon!!

These lunatics are actually building a pipeline that runs through Iowa and is going to suck CO2 out of the air with their "carbon capture" project. It's associated with the distastrous ethanol plants that are a complete farce. Ethanol is not cost effective and damages our engines, but I digress. The practical consequences of such an insane endeavor would be starving crops to death. That, coupled with the fertilizer shortages are part of their "engineered food crisis" which is part of their depopulation plan. I kid you not. I can't believe that anyone buys this climate change crap. "Green energy' requires more energy to create than it produces. All of this is intentional folks, the demon leftists have been playing the long game for a long time.

Fox News books scored its third New York Times best-seller this week with All American Christmas. The book is co-authored by Fox News’ Rachel Campos-Duffy and her husband, former congressman and reality TV star, Sean Duffy. It has sold over 200,000 copies since its release in mid-November. The book has been on the hardcover nonfiction best-seller list for four weeks and knocked The 1619 Project – edited by Nikole Hannah-Jones – out of the top spot.

Mary Anne Franks, an actual law professor at the University of Miami School, has proposed a “redo” of the First Amendment in a Boston Globe oped. (She likewise proposed a “redo” of the Second Amendment, but perhaps that's better handled separately.) The first and most important of the amendments, she writes, is “deeply flawed” in its conceptualization “of some of the most important rights of a democratic society: the freedom of expression and religion.” The amendment as it stands now, Franks adds, it’s “highly susceptible to being read in isolation from the Constitution as a whole and from its commitments

The coronavirus will hit millions of Americans in a "viral blizzard" within a few weeks as infections from the Omicron variant pile on top of Delta, an expert predicts. Already, hospitalizations are rising as the holiday season gets into full swing. Long lines for Covid-19 testing formed Thursday in metro areas, including New York, Boston and Miami. The Delta variant remains a problem. And Omicron, with its high transmissibility, could strike millions more soon, said Michael Osterholm, director of the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy at the University of Minnesota.

MINNEAPOLIS — The former Minnesota police officer who fatally shot Daunte Wright while yelling "Taser" in a traffic-stop-turned-arrest is expected to take the witness stand Friday in her manslaughter trial. Hennepin County District Court Judge Regina Chu told jurors Thursday they were "almost done" and that the defense had two witnesses left. During jury selection, Kim Potter informed the court she intended to testify, and one of her defense attorneys told jurors they would hear from her during trial. Potter, 49, is charged with first- and second-degree manslaughter in the April shooting in a Minneapolis suburb. The 26-year veteran of the

MEDFORD, Mass. — Police are searching for the people responsible for smash-and-grab robberies at several Massachusetts jewelry stores. Surveillance video shared by Touch of Midas in Burlington shows nine people breaking through the front door in the overnight hours between Saturday and Sunday. Those people then used hammers to smash display cases in order to grab fistfuls of jewelry. Those thieves were able to run off before anyone could catch them. Roland Racicot, the owner of Roland's Jewelry, said thieves broke into his 30-year-old Medford business and stole about $15,000 in merchandise the same night Touch of Midas was robbed. The

The San Francisco Board of Supervisors on Tuesday unanimously passed ground-breaking legislation to provide paid sick leave for cleaners, nannies, gardeners and other domestic workers. The measure — the first of its kind in the country — would affect some 10,000 people in San Francisco who work in private homes to clean, cook, tend children, garden, do personal organizing, or provide non-medical care for disabled people or seniors. This workforce is typically low-paid with many women and immigrants, supporters said. “I think these people have been taking care of people in San Francisco for a long time, and it’s about

As a recent wave of mob-led store robberies has put retailers, mall operators and communities on edge, one popular shopping center is keeping an unusual security measure in place through the holiday season. The Grove, a famous open-air shopping complex in Los Angeles, has added a high coil fence barrier that resembles barbed wire at the property's entrances and exits. Management added the "tangled tape" coil fencing, which is made from a custom aluminum-and-steel mesh, ahead of Thanksgiving weekend. The fencing is installed nightly after the mall closes and removed before it reopens, and it's just one of the security

President Joe Biden issued a stark warning about the risks the Omicron variant poses to the unvaccinated in particular, as the nation braces for a steep escalation in cases amid an expected surge in hospitalizations.

He’s 80 years old and has been serving in political positions since 1992, almost thirty years. Generally, you hear a lot of retirements after the holidays.
