If there was one lesson the Democrats learned from 2020 forward, it was that, if the government convinces voters there's an emergency, the voters will let the government get away with murder. That's why there is a huge push from the left for Biden to declare a "climate emergency" and, under that rubric, end fossil fuels in America on an accelerated timeline. If Biden were to do this — and to get away with doing it — America is over. Kaput. The great experiment will have ended.
The Washington Post seems to have been first with the story.

He’s not going to do it because it would create an election emergency in November at which point they will wish they had never been born. Tyrannical takeover makes them so eager to get it done so they can burn the country down to the ground and rule over the ashes.

I once lived in a northeastern city where the police had a service, where if a citizen complained about speeders on his street, the police would set up a radar unit, to catch speeders.
And often, a police officer told me, the police would wind up ticketing the person who first complained, who was speeding past the radar unit.
I'm not exactly sure why I thought of that when I read this article. But I did.

Climate is not an emergency. It has been on the radar for decades and Congress has taken NO action. The situation has not markedly deteriorated over time, in fact, the potential problems feared have been scaled back. Further, when mitigating actions, even extreme actions are factored into models, the results are inconsequential, i.e. our actions will not matter that much. Finally, there are many doubts as to the accuracy of the "science" around climate and the hysteria that is trying to drive actions.
All of this adds up to NOT an emergency except that dems are about to be FLUSHED in November.
Even if Brandon acts, Presidential emergency declarations have been challenged in the SCOTUS and rejected. The case for this being a true emergency and valid use of presidential emergency power is VERY weak. With the current court, I suspect Brandon would be handed his hat and his declarations rejected. It would be another pie in his face.

If the left really wants another civil war, this is a great way to start one.

If Henry VIII ruled America and Biden was chancellor and proclaimed a treasonous "weather emergency," he might be headed to the Tower to face, as Sir Walter Raleigh commented, '...sharp medicine but a sure cure for all diseases.'

This is all about making sure the November election will not be held.

Where is the opposition party? So tired of their impotency and apparent collusion. Represent us like you are supposed to!

I didn't hear too many folks squawking about the previous administration's misapplication of the Defense Production Act...we were at war with COVIDS. No one complained much about this administration's two-time misapplication of the same law, which allows government commandeering of private industry - this time for baby formula and "key energy resources" (not oil). There is no authority? No emergency? Wasn't in any of those three unique cases, either. Who needs them?

The planet is not in mortal danger, but the Democrats are -- and no executive action Biden tries to take will save them.

Was the Stamp Tax an executive order. We are a republic. Any EO except national stupid politician day is unconstitutional. FJB!

I wound only accept America being over (Kaput) only if me and around 30 million like minded are lying dead on a battlefield, killed by our communist countrymen and their imported mercenaries, after an unsuccessful fight to the death. People who are willing to declare defeat without First having put everything on the line are disgusting Americans-in-name-only.

It is hard to believe that there are no Dems left in Congress who think this is just nuts.
