12-4-25 - 9am - The End of the Climate Cult

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey there, Michael week or que back. There'd been talk
about a Lady Capitol police officer being involved with the
placement of the bombs at DNC RNC on January sixth.
But I'm hearing that a man in Virginia was arrested
on this this morning. Do you know anything more about this?

Speaker 2 (00:25):
No, and it's been covered up at I don't mean
ad nauseum as if I'm criticizing, but I heard on
the way in the news stories about the FBI arresting
this guy. I think Gina and Ross talked about it Dragon,
did they did a little bit, a little bit, Yeah, yeah,
So that's pretty much all we know. We know that

(00:45):
it's a male. He's from Woodbridge, Virginia, which is a
suburb about thirty five miles south of DC. It's I forget.
It's got some byouser rivers or something around it. I've
been to Woodbridge a few times. Just there's nothing to
write home about. But what I find interesting is, and

(01:05):
I forget when it was I know what you're referring to.
Blaze Media came out and I only know this because
the nationally syndicated weekend program also airs on Blaze Media.

Speaker 3 (01:16):
Blaze Radio on the weekend, and.

Speaker 2 (01:17):
So I occasionally go over there to see kind of
what they've posted, kind of what they're doing. And they
had this big, giant announcement about they've done an incredible
investigation and they they've identified it and it's a woman
and she used to work for And I don't remember
now because I start to trail off of my memory
because I thought this seems to be a little like

(01:40):
over the top, kind of.

Speaker 3 (01:42):
Like your maybe you're making some wild.

Speaker 2 (01:47):
Ass claims that you don't really have any basis for yet,
And so I kind of dismissed that story over on Blaze.
And then I wake up this morning and find out,
wait a minute, of course, we don't know what's mat
or what's female.

Speaker 4 (02:01):
This wasn't the same woman that found the bombs, correct,
because because she yeh that they were supposed to go
off exactly the moment the whole thing was supposed to
start and everything, So this is not that we.

Speaker 2 (02:13):
Separate woman. But then I don't know what a woman
is true, and I don't know what a man is true,
So I don't know, like and and were the bombs
male or female? Were they trans bombs? Were they now
trans bombs and and I'm not sure we could even
talk about it because somebody's going to be offended it.
I don't want to offend.

Speaker 3 (02:29):
Anybody since when since when you offend me?

Speaker 2 (02:35):
Every morning when I wake up, and the first email
I see every morning is headlines you won't read from
Dragon red Beard, but that it was pretty early this
morning too.

Speaker 3 (02:42):
I was kind of shocked. Five thirty eight or something.

Speaker 4 (02:45):
That's not right?

Speaker 3 (02:46):
Is that about right? It just seemed early to me
for some reason because I was.

Speaker 4 (02:50):
Just early now for you, since you have the nine
to noon shift, but when you were on from six
to ten. Oh yeah, five thirty is not so early.

Speaker 2 (02:58):
If I wasn't here by five thirty, there was something wrong, right,
And now I wake up at five point thirty and
I see the first thing I said is your name,
And it's like this runs my entire day. So just
so you know that while I used to walk in
and dread seeing you for the first thing in the morning,
now I just dread opening my email because it'll be

(03:18):
red beerd it'll be the top of my list, And would.

Speaker 4 (03:21):
You read any of those headlines?

Speaker 3 (03:23):
Actually, I have to confess this morning I did not
I see.

Speaker 4 (03:26):
I know you wouldn't headlines, you won't read.

Speaker 2 (03:28):
No, but they are every day. I've been reading them,
but I have. I could have lilied to you. I
could have lied and said, yeah, I read them this morning,
but then you would have asked me what were they,
and I had would have had to say that I've
been caught in a lie. So I just was honest
with you, and honestly I didn't. And I'll no, I
won't tell you why I didn't read them, because there

(03:50):
was a I will tell you, but I'm gonna give
you the substance, because there was another email from somebody
else that, quite honestly, was just more important than you,
and I would to read that one first. And once
I found out about that, and I was all excited
about it, and then I.

Speaker 3 (04:04):
Just I moved on.

Speaker 4 (04:04):
And I'm talking about Lachansky's femail that's not more important
than mine.

Speaker 3 (04:08):
I didn't get one from him this morning.

Speaker 4 (04:09):
Oh okay, Oh no, wait a.

Speaker 3 (04:10):
Minute, I don't think I did too.

Speaker 2 (04:11):
There was something about oh, let me let me wrack
my brain for a moment, and.

Speaker 4 (04:15):
I don't remember it either.

Speaker 2 (04:17):
Uh something, oh Peta. It was about Peta. I think
Peter would Peter wants to walk your dogs three hours
a day, and one of those hours has to be
for at least an hour long.

Speaker 3 (04:28):
That was that was the top thing.

Speaker 4 (04:29):
Three times a day. One of those needs to be
for at least now.

Speaker 2 (04:32):
Yes, yes, the dogs this morning were lucky that I
think they got thirty two.

Speaker 4 (04:38):
Minutes, but they would have loved more. It's freezing out.

Speaker 2 (04:40):
Today and they and they were they were like trotting.
They were so happy this morning. I'm I can barely
move this morning. I've got, you know, the the hoodie
over my head, I bundled up in a parka, I
got my big ski gloves on. I've got everything on,
and it's like the world. Turn the air conditioning on.

Speaker 4 (04:57):
Dad, let's go outside side.

Speaker 3 (04:59):
God turned on the great It's great. Oh my gosh.

Speaker 2 (05:02):
You know, that's actually kind of a good segue into
what I want to talk about. I want to let
me give you the roadmap of where we're going today.
So we're going to talk about how we have come
I think to the end of the climate cult. I
think the all the congregants in the church of the
climate activists are they're still singing. They're kind of kind

(05:24):
of like Jim Jones, you know whatever that Jim Jones
things was. They're all down there, and they are they
haven't drank the poison yet, they haven't completely killed themselves off.
But the the membership is beginning to kind of drift off.
And the preachers and the pastors and the ministers, and

(05:45):
the rabbis and the and and the I don't know,
the mullas and everybody else that are all part of
the leadership of the Church of the Climate Activists are
kind of beginning to back off just a little bit,
not a lot. But it's the same time that that's done.
Here in Colorado, we got a dumbasque governor who is
pushing that your electric rates are going to skyrocket.

Speaker 3 (06:09):
This skyrocket, yes.

Speaker 2 (06:11):
All in uh, some sort of blind faithful adherence to
the dogma that is pushed out by the Church of
the Climate Activists. But I think to start, we ought
to be somewhat thankful that the global warming craze is
dying out the climate. This is a money python reference.

(06:37):
The climate parrot may still be nailed to its perch
at the recent cop summit down in Belem, Brazil or
Harvard or on CNN or MSNBC or any of you
who believe in that somehow that you are much more
influential and you driving your EV now, And again I
don't care whether you're drive an EV or not. Just

(06:57):
don't tell me that, you know, Oh it's the missions
for because it's not emissions free and you know it.
There may not be any tailpipe emissions. But did you see,
by the way, dragon, did you see I forget where
it was that we had a we had an EVY
catch fire somewhere in Denver recently.

Speaker 3 (07:12):
Did you see that? Yeah?

Speaker 4 (07:13):
And they couldn't put it out.

Speaker 2 (07:14):
So see the bulget over it? Yeah, I love it.
And of course you know they had to pay it.
It looks like it caught fire in the garage and
they had to pull it out of the garage or something.
So they're they're lucky though the entire house didn't burn down.
Oh my god. Oh anyway, so I think that the

(07:35):
dogma has gone to meet its maker. They've kicked the bucket.
They've shuffled off this mortal coil and they've run down
the curtain. They've joined the Choir Invisible by failing to
pledge a cut in fossil fuels, which is what happened
down at cop They have achieved less than nothing. It's
a negative zero of what they accomplished. The venue caught fire,

(07:58):
the air conditioning malfund. The delegates were told on arrival
not to flush toilet paper. I'm not making this up.
They were told not to flush the toilet paper. And
then you add on to that Bill Gates and his
recent recent apology in which he conceded that global warming
quote will not lead to humanity's demise, after he closed

(08:19):
the policy and advocacy office of his climate philanthropy group,
I think is another nail in the coffin. Yeah, that's
what he did. When you realize, even when you're a
billionaire and you see your money, like I think a
billionaire would be upset, maybe not with a dollar, but
maybe a Benjamin. If I just took a billionaire's Benjamin

(08:43):
and put a match to it and burned it up,
he might get a little upset because Benjamin's add up
to you know whatever. You know, a billion dollar dollar
bill would look like. According to an analysis by the
Washington Post, and it's not just Republicans who have given
up climate change, it is the more important part of
you know, you can kind of see the Church of

(09:04):
the Climate Activists. In fact, when you go to a wedding,
the brides family and friends are on one side and
the groom's family and friends are on the other side. Well,
it's the same in the Church of the Climate Activists.
You've got some Republicans. It's a they just kind of
sit on the back row. They're not really upfront singing
the Halleluio chorus. They're just kind of on the back row,

(09:26):
just kind of mumbling to themselves. But over here on
the left side of the church, as you're facing the altar,
which you know three three ones zero three, what do
you think is on the altar at the Church of
the Climate Activists? Let me know, tell me what you
think is up there on that altar, because they're they're
not worshiping God. They're not worship worshiping Christ. No, no, no, no,

(09:50):
there worshiping something else. So what do you think is
on the altar as you face the front part of
the Church of the Climate Activists. So over here on
the right side, you got the Republicans back on the
back two rows and they're just kind of whispering among themselves.
Passing notes, doing whatever, doing whatever kids do in church.
Then over here on the left side of the church
of the climate activists are the all the Democrats, all

(10:14):
of the Liberals, all the nut jobs, all of the
wack of doodles that believe that somehow they're more powerful
than God Almighty and that they can somehow influence the climate.

Speaker 3 (10:25):
Um eas.

Speaker 2 (10:26):
Even the Democrat Party has stopped talking about it, hardly
mentioned it during Kamala Harris's Now, I know during Kamala
Harris's campaign it was kind of shortened, so maybe she
didn't have enough time to talk about it. But the
topic has dropped to the bottom half of a table
of twenty three concerns among Swedish youth. Even the European

(10:48):
Parliament has voted to exempt companies from all the reporting
rules that required them to state how they are helping
to fight climate change. And it has been a very
long lucrative ride. I mean, the riftingness been going on
is amazing. People have made bukoos money off this thing.
So predicting the eco apocalypse has always been a profitable

(11:09):
business because it spawns all the subsidies, the salaries, the
consulting fees. Of course, all the air miles. You know,
golft Stream gets to sell all the jets to all
the Hollywood starlets and everybody else. So if they can
go climate, they can fly is off somewhere to tell
you how you are destroying the climate while they.

Speaker 3 (11:28):
You know, they fly their jets.

Speaker 2 (11:29):
Oil spills, pollution, desertification, mass extinction, acid rain, the ozone layer,
nuclear winner, falling sperm counts. Yes, all of that has
faded as the evidence has actually become more equivocal. And
then we as the public kind of grew bored with it,
or in some cases the problem was resolved by a

(11:50):
change in the law or practice. That is kind of
what happened at the cabinet meeting with the President yesterday.
But we'll get to that in a minute. But I
think it's another sign that, yes, when you got the
President Afford singing Hallelujah chorus at a cabinet meeting, because
not necessarily right at the cabinet meeting, but in the

(12:11):
West wing, because of getting rid of the cafe standards
and all that crap.

Speaker 3 (12:15):
Yeah, it's a good day. Now. Let's be honest.

Speaker 2 (12:22):
No scare grew as big or lasted as long as
climate change. I remember high school debate the oncoming what
was it? We were going to the deep freeze, we
were all going to freeze to death. And then you
had the doom laden article for The Economist about carbon

(12:42):
dioxide emissions dropping heat in the air back in nineteen
eighty seven, nearly forty years ago. And I don't know
when it was, but I had an epiphany at some
point where I realized that the effect.

Speaker 3 (12:52):
Was, you know, there's real climate change. He is real,
I do.

Speaker 2 (12:56):
I'm not a climate denier whatsoever, but I'm also a
realist and I recognize that Yep, you know what, the sun,
the sun, the moon, stars, and the Lord Almighty himself
are gonna do what they're gonna do, and all I
can do is mitigate against it so that if he

(13:17):
gets warmer and the growing season extends way, shoot, I
can plant and harvest more soy means or more wheat
or barley or whatever it is, or my cattle won't
freeze to death out, you know, on the back forty
Because well now up in Calgary, Canada, and even up
further north, it's got a little warmer. Okay, well that's
pretty good. But I've been accused of blasphemy by the

(13:39):
members of the Church of the climate activists, and that's fine.
The activists who took over the climate debate really had
minimal understanding of climate science. But what they did was
they competed for attention by painting ever more catastrophic pictures
of future global warming. And they change the name to
climate change so they can blame the blizzard as well

(14:00):
as the heat waves. It was actually brilliant when you
think about it. No matter what, you know, it's colder
than a wel diggers ass out today, one of those
cold as it was last night. But it's colder than
a wel diggers ass outside, and it'll warm up. And
they were already talking about, you know, Dave Fraser over
at Channel nine, nine years in a row of most
accurate weather reporting in the country, that next week is

(14:23):
going to be up into the fifties. Well, that's climate
change too. Everything's climate change. It's fascinating. Roger Hollam, who
is the founder of the Extinction Rebellue in Backtion in
twenty nineteen, said quote, I'm talking about the slaughter, the death,
and the starvation of six billion people this century. That's

(14:44):
what the science predicts a top climate scientist. According to
Greta Tomberg is warning that climate change will wipe out
humanity unless we stop using fossil fuels over the next
five years. See that was in Dragging You the Math Lizard.
Gretaitumberg said that in twenty eighteen she said it in
five years humanity would be wiped out. So twenty twenty five,

(15:07):
the twenty twenty eighteen, that's seven years, and she predicted
it in five years that would have been twenty twenty three.

Speaker 3 (15:13):
We're way past. We're past doomsday.

Speaker 4 (15:15):
How day are you?

Speaker 3 (15:17):
And then five years later she deleted her tweet and
then after.

Speaker 2 (15:20):
That decided that well, gossins and the Palestinians were a
more promising way of staying in the limelight, and that
was a better grift and I can make more money
off that. And then Donald Trump came along and stopped that.
And now Gretaituneberg is, well, she's a wall, which is
certainly fine with me. I'm not complaining. I'm supporting man
that she's a wall. Now, scientists knew that pronouncements like

(15:44):
this were nonsense because they turned a blind eye because
the alarm kept the grant money flowing and The journalists
always love exaggeration. Remember how we dislated the New York
Times story yesterday. And of course the capitalists, God bless them.
The capitalists were happy to cash in. And the politicians

(16:04):
can't forget them. They welcome the chance to do what
they're always doing and very good at, and that's blaming
somebody else, because they would say that, you know, if
a wildfire or a flood devastated your town, whether they
could point the finger at the changing climate rather than
your own failure to prepare or your failure to respond.

(16:25):
In the case of like say Los Angeles and the
Palisades fire, almost nobody had any incity whatsoever to downplay
the alarm. And then, unlike previous scares, climate fear has
the valuable feature that can always be presented in the
future tents. It's always out there, lurking around the corner,

(16:47):
over the next hill. It's going to be there. Armageddon
is You can always promise armageddon, and armageddon never comes,
but you can keep promising it so everybody's blood pressure
remains elevated, everybody's stress levels remains elevated, everybody's dopamine kicks in,
and everybody's all worried about it, and you know, it's
a great drift. By twenty twenty, no meeting, even if

(17:09):
a town council or sports team was complete without some
sort of hand and ringing discussion about carbon emissions and
carbon footprints, which is actually a pretty good segue into
Colorado and what Colorado's.

Speaker 1 (17:24):
Doing and a stunning blow to the experts.

Speaker 3 (17:26):
The CEO afore just said he can launch new less
expensive vehicles in the US because of Trump.

Speaker 1 (17:33):
We're sending Biden regulations.

Speaker 3 (17:36):
Awesome, it is awesome.

Speaker 2 (17:40):
You know, I've decided, before I get to the Colorado
aspect of this story, I want to fish off literally
the story about how the climate narrative is really falling apart,
because there are a couple of more data points I
want you to consider. Switching to renew energy made literally

(18:01):
no difference. Here's the data to back that up. The
world added nine thousand tarawatt hours per year of energy
consumption from wind and solar in the past decade. All right,
that's a boatload of energy from wind and solar. But

(18:24):
at the same time that we added nine thousand tarawatt
hours per year of energy consumption from wind and solar,
we added thirteen thousand tarawatt hours of energy comes consumption
from fossil fuels, not the wind and solar saved much
carbon dioxide anyway, because their machinery being made with coal
and their intermittency being backed up by fossil fuels means

(18:47):
that they're pretty much worthless if you're trying to reduce emissions.
And why are we trying to reduce emissions? Let's not
forget why that came about. Because in the Obama era,
the EPA decided under the under their regulatory authority that
the gas that I'm breathing out as I speak and

(19:09):
exhale CO two is now a pollutant. So we got
to get rid of that. And then we pump in
trillions of dollars in subsidies for those two unreliable and
they still provide only six percent of the world's energy.
After trillions of dollars and you get six percent, So

(19:30):
I don't know what comes after a trill. Is that
a bazillion, A gazillion, I don't know what it is.
But after a trillion dollars, and we only get six
percent of the world's energy from wind and solar, Their
low density, high cost intermittent power output is of no
use to data centers, it's of no use to the
electrical grid, let alone transport, transportation, or heating, and it

(19:53):
effectively poisons the economics of building and running new nuclear
gas generation sites by preventing continuous operation. Why it became
mandatory among those that were pushing all of the dogma
out of the Churchill, the climate activists, they had to
support those unreliables so obsessibly, because otherwise the marketplace would

(20:16):
have looked at it and said, no, this is stupid,
We're not going to do this. Subsidy addiction had a
lot to do with that. Combine up, of course, with
a general ignorance of thermodynamics and be to us and
output and everything else. And so now the climate scare
is fading, and you see a scramble for the exits.
Donations are drying up, and some people will switch seamlessly

(20:39):
to try to panic us about artificial intelligence. Others will
follow Bill Gates and insist that they never said it
was the end of the world to begin with. Oh,
we got the record. It's just a problem to be solved.
It's just another problem to be solved. And a few
might even try to proclaim victory, claiming unconvincedly. I might
add that promises made at the Paris Climate Change Conference

(21:01):
a decade ago have slow dimissions enough now to save
the planet. That's the one I find the most beautiful,
because that will be the claim. Well we you know,
in fact, Bill Gates said that, you know, I played
the sound bite for you a couple of weeks ago
where Bill Gates said, well, you know, we have reduced emissions.
So you take that you gained two yards. You still

(21:23):
have ninety eight yards to go and make a touchdown,
but you gained two yards, and you just claim a victory.
You just change the rules of the game. Well, we
changed them, so that's that's a win. And al Gore,
al Gore algorithm, the former VP, who did more than
anybody else in the world, who was scarist about climate change,
made about oh, I'd say between three and four hundred

(21:45):
million dollars off chase chasing that bull crap.

Speaker 3 (21:52):
And then he came out.

Speaker 2 (21:54):
And he railed against Bill Gates last week for abandoning
the cause and accused Bill Gates of being bullied by Trump.
He said, remember those World War Two Japanese soldiers that
didn't know World War II was over, and they kind
of emerged from the jungle, like, what's going on?

Speaker 3 (22:11):
What happened?

Speaker 2 (22:12):
Ah bah, I'm gonna kill you. I'm gonna kill you. No, no, world,
it's over. That's Al Gore right now. And maybe, although
I doubt it that Gore would actually regret his exaggerated
preachings of hell fire and brimstone in The Inconvenient Truth,

(22:33):
for which he only won a Nobel Prize, shows you
what Nobel prizes are worth. Now, he predicted the sea
level rise of up to twenty feet quote in the
near future. Yeah, well he's out by around nineteen feet
and nine inches or nineteen feet and eleven inches.

Speaker 3 (22:51):
I don't know. It just depends on where you measure it.

Speaker 2 (22:54):
And then in two thousand and nine, he's the same
guy that said there was a seventy five percent chance
that all I and the Arctic Ocean would disappear by
twenty fourteen. In that year, in twenty fourteen, there was
five million square kilometers of Arctic sea ice at its
lowest point, about the same as what it was in

(23:17):
two thousand and nine. This year we went from five
million to four point seven million square kilometers.

Speaker 3 (23:26):
So what's the big deal here we are nineteen years later.

Speaker 4 (23:32):
Wasn't there also a story recently that the Antarctic ice
shelf got a whole lot bigger, bigger.

Speaker 2 (23:37):
Yeah, got a whole lot, lot lot bigger, Yeah, a
lot bigger. I think a key figure in the collapse
of the church is that satanic figure Chris Wright. Yes,
who's been not in this but not been in the studio.
It's been in the studio next door. He's truly the
pioneer of extracting shale gas by hydraulic fracking, who got

(23:59):
a point by Trump as the Energy secretary this year
and write Commissioner review of Climate science by five distinguished
academics that set out just how non frightening the facts
of climate change are slowly rising temperatures mainly at night
in the winter duh, and in the north correspondingly less

(24:21):
than daytime and summer in the tropics where most people live,
and then accompanied by a very slow rise in sea
level showing no definite acceleration, minimal, if any, measurable change
in the average frequency and ferocity of storms. We talked
about that with the hurricane season. Yep, it was a dud.
And record low levels of deaths from all these different causes.

Speaker 3 (24:43):
Plus there's been a.

Speaker 2 (24:44):
General increase in green vegetation caused by the extra carbon
dioxide in the atmosphere. Green vegetation, you know, like kale,
You like kale, dragon? I hate cal.

Speaker 4 (24:55):
Oh, it's just a decorative crap they put on the plates.
You grab it, you throw it away and you continue
on with your meal.

Speaker 2 (25:00):
Or they broil it and put some olive oil and
butter and garlic on it and sell it to you
for nineteen ninety five as an appetiser.

Speaker 3 (25:08):
And no, it's horrible.

Speaker 2 (25:11):
Everybody in DC tells me that Right is treated like
a rock star when he goes out to speak at
different places, and his fellow ministers, the other energy secretaries,
especially from Africa and Asia, are thrilled now to be
able to talk about the need to get energy to
people instead of being hassled about emissions. Only a few

(25:31):
Western European ministers sneer, but even some of them, like
the British being an exception, quietly admit that they need
to find a way to climb down off their green
high horses, and they need to try to find the
escape door out of the Church of the Climate Activists.

Speaker 3 (25:46):
So that's where the.

Speaker 2 (25:50):
Climate catastrophe has been a horrible mistake. But let's not
forget why. It's really easy to point out that it was.
It was a mistake. Now I'm not telling you it's
completely dead. Oh don't get me wrong. There's still a
little money flowing out there. But I'm telling you, based
on what Donald Trump did yesterday with the emission standards

(26:14):
and the cafe standards and all of that, he is
driving a nail a dagger into the heart of the
vampire that really is the head of the Church of
the Climate activists. But what were the consequences. It diverted
detention from very real environmental problems. It cost us a fortune.

(26:37):
It impoverished you and me as consumers. It perpetuated poverty.
It frightened young people into infertility, and quite frankly, into
having a actual syndrome of being scared about climate change.
I told you that my wife, when she was a counselor,
she dealt with some kids who really were fearful. They
had anxiety about climate change. It wastes years of our

(27:02):
time and undermine democracy. It corrupted science, just kind of
like COVID did it's time to bury that stupid parrot.
So you would think that now we've reached the time
where it's you know, actually has time to bury the parrot.
You would think that Colorado would wake up and go, yeah,
we ought to bury the parrot. Well, what if I
told you, just as a little bit of a tease

(27:25):
at the Colorado Public Utilities Commission, I'm just going to
refer to it as the PUC is that okay?

Speaker 3 (27:30):
Thank you? They have actually escalated. They have.

Speaker 2 (27:36):
Sped up Colorado's clean Heat plan by now mandating a
forty one percent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions from the
natural gas utilities Excel. We're looking at you by twenty
thirty five, surpassing, yes, surpassing the statutory target of twenty

(27:57):
two percent by twenty thirty, all of which implies a
full one hundred percent of greenhouse gas emissions to be
eliminated by twenty fifty and that obviously aligns with Polis's
statewide climate goals.

Speaker 3 (28:14):
He's out to destroy us. Stay tuned.

Speaker 5 (28:17):
I hope you heard the BS story at your news break.
Colorado's number three in the country for good drivers. Florida
ranks in the top three for good drivers in Michigan best.
You are spreading propaganda. No kill today.

Speaker 3 (28:40):
I'm not spreading the propaganda. I don't do the news.

Speaker 2 (28:44):
But are you the one that left the text message
at three three one zero three. By the way, if
you're using another number, I do not see them. Three
three one zero three. Keyword micro Michael, I'm throwing the
BS flag of the nine thirty Colorado News has to
be fake news. News report claims that Colorado's the third
best state for driving, behind Michigan and Florida. Have you
been smoking the wacky Tobacci No, I would agree with it.

(29:08):
When you think about when you own a sports car
like I do, a BMWM sport and you crank that
baby up to one hundred and thirty five miles an
hour and you start trying to avoid the potholes. Man,
that is you talk about caring about term radius, talking
about holding it tight to the road.

Speaker 4 (29:28):
You just zone right in.

Speaker 2 (29:31):
It is like wow, it is like real driving. So yeah,
I would think that we are probably in the top three.

Speaker 3 (29:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (29:39):
Now, if you're talking about the other drivers, the ones
that I witnessed this morning, yes, all those.

Speaker 4 (29:46):
Ones that are driving with their flashers on on the
highway at five o'clock in the morning.

Speaker 2 (29:49):
I truly have to Did you see that today? I
didn't see it yesterday? I didn't. I was so much
I did yesterday. But yeah, yeah, in the left lane
with the flashers on. Oh my gosh, you guys mean nuts. Okay,
let's get to the Colorado. So I told you in
that last segment that the PUC, the Colorado Public Utilities Commission,
is now escalating. So while nationally we're recognized that climate

(30:13):
change is a bunch of bull crap, Colorado is going
full bore end. There is a statutory target of reducing
commissions by twenty two percent by twenty thirty. But somehow
the bureaucrats at the Public Utility Commissions who are kissing
Jared Polis's butt, have decided that what we're gonna do

(30:34):
is we're gonna mandate a forty one percent reduction in
greenhouse gas emissions from natural gas utilities. No, not from
everybody else, just from the utilities by twenty thirty five.
And that and if you read the stories, and if
you read what the PUC is done, it implies a
full one hundred percent cut by twenty fifty because they

(30:58):
claim that that aligns with Colorado i e. Jared Polis's
climate goals. So that's going to force utilities like Excel
or Black Hill's Energy and at most to prioritize electrification.
Now what I mean prioritize electrification. Well, the inverse of

(31:21):
that is removing customers from natural gas systems since measures
like methane capture are falling short. So instead of just
saying yeah, but it's still clean, it's just not as
clean as you Yahoo's in the bureaucracy want, We're just
gonna make you electrify everything. Well, guess what your rate

(31:46):
hikes if if you're kind of asleep right now and
you kind of need a joke to wake you up,
I'll tell you what those rate hikes are going to
be next
