Wind Power: Not the Utopia We Were Sold On
Posted By: Hazymac, 10/26/2025 8:27:40 AM
Wind power has been sold to us as an environmental utopia, with lower costs, but ends up being nothing of the sort in practice. With the aid of government subsidies, we are putting up electric generating windmills all over the place. Such subsidies include the Production Tax Credit (PTC), which, according to the Institute for Energy research (IRER), provides a per-kilowatt-hour tax credit for electricity generated by qualified wind projects; and the Investment Tax Credit (ITC), which provides a tax credit based on the investment made in renewable energy projects, including wind. According to IRER, trillions are being invested here. The United States, under the Biden-Harris climate bill,

An Enemy Has Done This

The Anglican communion headed by Canterbury cathedral has been taken over by a group of radicalized elites. The massive shift affects not only the Anglican communion itself, but Great Britain, the Commonwealth, and the global Christian community.
The current coup seeks to disestablish Christianity in favor of a religio-political cult dedicated to applying queer theology to the Church, a process that involves the deconstruction of historic church doctrines.
The current coup is as significant as Henry VIII’s break from the Catholic church and the authority of the pope in 1534. Henry’s actions disestablished the Church’s position as being superior to earthly authority by making the state headed by the person
Be on the lookout for a pricey custom Range Rover because it might belong to Shaquille O'Neal.
The NBA legend has owned dozens of cars over the years. According to GQ, he has had a customized Cadillac Escalade, a Cadillac Eldorado Convertible, a Dodge Challenger, a Ferrari 355 F1 Spider, a Mercedes S550 Convertible, several Bentleys, a 2018 Vaydor, and a Lamborghini Gallardo.
He's even owned a Vanderhall Venice three-wheel roadster. Sure, it was heavily customized like many of his cars to fit his 7-foot frame, but seeing him whip around town in that would still be quite the sight.
One of the latest additions to his collection is a $180,000
Multiple suspects have been arrested in connection with the theft of crown jewels from the Louvre Museum in Paris last weekend, French officials said Sunday.
Paris prosecutor Laure Beccuau said that investigators made the arrests on Saturday evening, including one man who was taken into custody as he was about to leave the country from Charles de Gaulle airport.
Beccuau did not confirm the number of arrests, though French media BFM TV and Le Parisien newspaper earlier reported that two suspects had been arrested and taken into custody. She did not say whether the jewels had been recovered.
Thieves took less than eight minutes to steal jewels valued at 88 million euros
For all the unity that the Democratic Party projects, there’s actually a lot of drama behind the scenes, and it’s nice to see the details finally come out.
According to a new tell-all on last year’s campaign, Joe Biden spent the last weeks of his re-election meltdown dodging phone calls—not from reporters or donors, but from Barack Obama himself. For two full weeks before he finally bailed out last July, Biden reportedly refused to take his old boss’s calls. And get this: even after he quit, he gave Obama the cold shoulder for another month.
It’s a far cry from the friendly dynamic Democrats once sold to the public. Remember the memes,

Crime Sweep and East Wing Renovation

To me, the most incredible story this week was well-buried in the press: The arrest of “La Diabla,” the female cartel member who butchered pregnant women, stole their organs, and sold their babies.
The day’s most astonishing crime-fighting anecdote came from Tulsi Gabbard, who described a story reported last month in the New York Post under the headline, “Female cartel member ‘La Diabla’ busted for running horrific baby-trafficking, organ-harvesting rings.” Tulsi described a new “Fusion Cell” at the ODNI that works with governments like Mexico to find and arrest evil cartel serial killers like “La Diabla” (the Devil), who in assembly-line fashion lured pregnant Mexican women, murdered them, harvested
Matthew Hoffman, the ex-husband of former Congresswoman and gubernatorial candidate Katie Porter, reportedly suffered the indignity (and injury) of having Porter pour boiling potatoes over his head. Now that Porter's volatile temper and bad behavior to her staffers has been exposed for all to see, Hoffman has decided to break his silence on their relationship and confirm what most of us already know: she's a terrible politician, and would make an even worse governor.
Hoffman spills the tea. Fortunately, since he lives in OR now, he has a state between them to insulate him from any blowback.
There's an old internet meme going around that depicts a plate of bacon and eggs, with the caption, "They say every strip of bacon you eat takes six minutes off your life. If that were true, I'd have died in 1788." I don't know as I've eaten quite that much bacon in my life, but I've sure had some, and will probably have quite a bit more. Bacon is meat candy; it's a gift pigs give us when we're good.
So, of course, some people are trying to take it away.
Scientists are calling for a ban on supermarket bacon and ham after the chemicals used in their production were linked
Clothes Make the Militant

What do people wear to protests? The "No Kings" protests of Oct. 18, 2025, predominantly featured white people aged from 55 to 70+. About 70% were comprised of women, and although they sometimes wore prescription glasses, most were without facial coverings or glasses. They were mostly liberal but ordinary, and they wore ordinary civilian clothes.
But notice that not all protesters are similarly garbed. The regulars in environmental rallies not only often wear dark glasses but also face paint, masks, or props like fake blood. In even harder-core protests, Antifa participants are more likely to wear hoodies, face covers, bandanas, or Guy Fawkes masks (popularized by the movie V for Vendetta).
The Week In Pictures: Demolition Edition

Thankfully, it wasn’t a heavy news week. So the week’s memes are dominated by soft news stories. like the No Kings protest–which, despite being over for nearly a week, continues to inspire memes–the ongoing government shutdown, the robbery of priceless jewels from the Louvre, and my personal favorite, President Trump’s demolition of the East Wing of the White House.
The East Wing connects to the presidential residence via a walkway, and houses the First Lady’s office. The First Lady’s staff, like the social secretary, is housed there, too. Also the Graphics and Calligraphy Office. These offices are being temporarily relocated
Jew-Hatred Is Rampant in Teachers’ Unions
14 replies
A 48-page report released in September exposes the depth of the nation’s teachers’ unions’ hostility toward all things Jewish. “Breaking Solidarity: How Anti-Semitic Activists Turned Teacher Unions Against Israel,” published by the Defense of Freedom Institute in September, explains how unions have worked to embed anti-Semitism into K–12 education.
This anti-Semitism was brought to light after Hamas’s horrific attack on Israel on October 7, 2023, the deadliest single attack on Jews since the Holocaust.
The DFI report states that while the teacher unions that once proudly invested in Israel and fiercely affirmed its right to defend itself, “now demand boycotts of, divestments from, and sanctions against the world’s only Jewish state.
California Threatens to Arrest ICE Agents

The insurrection continues apace. California officials, including Nancy Pelosi, have threatened to arrest and criminally prosecute ICE agents who allegedly violate California law. Pelosi and Congressman Kevin Mullin issued this press release on Wednesday:
"Reports of a planned mass immigration raid in the Bay Area are an appalling abuse of law enforcement power. Broad sweeps that target families and terrorize law-abiding residents (Snip) This statement can charitably be described as disgraceful. What are the “certain actions” that federal agents have taken elsewhere that supposedly would be illegal in California, and under what California laws? Pelosi isn’t saying. The reference to “his rogue Supreme Court” is outrageous, as is the threat that

Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., said the next Democratic presidential nominee must vow to demolish President Donald Trump's White House ballroom, proposing the pledge a litmus test for the party’s 2028 contenders.
"Don’t even think of seeking the Democratic nomination for president unless you pledge to take a wrecking ball to the Trump Ballroom on DAY ONE," Swalwell wrote on X on Saturday. Swalwell's office did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital for additional comment.
BOSTON —
Former President Joe Biden will be in Boston on Sunday to receive a lifetime achievement award from the Edward M. Kennedy Institute.
Biden is scheduled to attend the event on Sunday at the institute's Columbia Point building in Boston, where he will be honored alongside former Labor Secretary and Boston Mayor Martin J. Walsh and retired U.S. Navy Admiral Lisa Franchetti. Walsh and Franchetti will both receive Awards for Inspired Leadership, the institute said in a statement. The awards will be presented during the Edward M. Kennedy Institute's 10th Anniversary Celebration, which is the organization's major annual fundraiser. Former Secretary of State John Kerry, who served with
Catherine Connolly, a pro-immigration self-avowed socialist running as an independent, won Ireland’s 2025 presidential election in a landslide Friday, defeating both of the nominees of the country’s two largest parties.
Connolly, 68, pulled in a massive 63.4% of votes, dwarfing the 29.5% received by Fine Gael nominee Heather Humphreys and the 7.2% won by Fianna Fáil nominee Jim Gavin. In her victory speech, the socialist promised to be “an inclusive president” multiple times and expressed her desire to “shape a new republic … that values and champions diversity … and the new people that have come to our country.”

The No Kings protests were a display of left-wing idiocy as participants dressed in costumes, chanted like ageing hippies at a Joan Baez concert, and held silly signs demanding that America have “no kings.”
It would appear that they achieved their goal, since we haven’t been ruled by a monarch in 249 years. Great job, guys.
As both our Nick Arama and Jennifer Oliver O’Connell noted in their coverage of the insanity, the crowds across the country seemed to look quite similar—they mostly seemed comprised of not-young white people. It turns out they were onto something, as American University researchers have discovered that one group in particular dominated the numbers

One person was killed and six others wounded when a mass shooting broke out during a homecoming event at Pennsylvania’s Lincoln University on Saturday night, creating a chaotic scene at one of the oldest HBCUs in the country.
Gunfire erupted at around 9:30 p.m. during a “tailgate celebration” near the football stadium at the historic Chester County campus, about 50 miles west of Philadelphia, according to officials.
“This is a devastating night in southern Chester County at Lincoln University,” District Attorney Christopher de Barrena-Sarobe told reporters Sunday morning. “It was a chaotic scene and people fled in every direction.”
The Trump administration took a shot at former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, accusing her of stealing furniture from the White House, after she criticized President Trump's new Ballroom renovations. "Failed presidential candidate and former First Lady Crooked Hillary Clinton stole furniture from the White House on her way out until she was forced to return it," White House spokesman Davis Ingle told Fox News Digital. "Crooked Hillary is shameless and a total disgrace. Meanwhile, President Trump is restoring the White House to its proper glory for Americans to enjoy for generations to come — at no expense to the taxpayer — something we should all celebrate."
A new Oklahoma law that takes effect Nov. 1 will increase the instances when a Driving Under the Influence charge can be elevated to a felony.
Passing the bill had been Job One for Jeff Murrow, executive director of Victims of Impaired Drivers, ever since his daughter was killed by a drunk driver, according to KFOR-TV.
“Marissa was killed in October of 2020 by a man that was nearly three times the legal limit. Driving the wrong way on the Kilpatrick Turnpike,” he said. "You can’t say it’s a mistake when it’s their second, third, fourth time to repeat,” Murrow explained.

Moscow carried out a successful test of its new “invincible” nuclear-capable cruise missile, with the Kremlin now working to deploy the doomsday weapon, Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Sunday.
Putin hailed the test in a video released by the Kremlin while dressed in military fatigues, with the strongman calling on his top general to start preparing the Burevestnik missile for potential use.
“We need to determine the possible uses and begin preparing the infrastructure for deploying these weapons to our armed forces,” Putin instructed.
