We need common sense in a time of madness. You don't have to believe in climate change, human caused or not.

No matter what, we need more power now; fossil fuels, renewables & the brand new. The more energy options we have at different price points, the better!

NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it.

The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait.

At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.

“The problem is that Americans thought it was ok to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of The United States and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things.

Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of The United States and if we don’t wake up we may not have a United States.”

A positive step toward stopping the Israel-Hamas conflict:

Yet, Trump should understand that he alone cannot secure peace.

Every president builds on the work of their predecessors and allies. If only he could respect that.
