Another day and another series of news reports confirmed that a majority of politicians are clueless, yet self-serving.
Even so, the most inept people, such as U.S. President Joe Biden or French President Emmanuel Macron, have been able to use their wealth, and social connections and have agreed to sell their souls to donors, on their way to occupying the most powerful positions of in the world.
Joe Biden, who prior to running for president, was more of an old-school moderate Democrat who supported the fossil fuel industry. Joe was friends with the late Robert Byrd, U.S. Senator from the coal-burning state of West Virginia. Byrd was also a local chapter leader in the KKK, which is interesting considering some of Joe’s controversial comments about the black community.
French President Emmanuel Macron, the main proponent of the Paris accord and promoter of the climate change hoax, has bragged, along with the leadership in Germany, how Europe is moving rapidly sway from energy produced by fossil fuels.
In a sign of their collective naïveté, the US and EU tried to put the squeeze on Russian President Vladimir Putin over his recent invasion. They put in place several sanctions without taking into consideration that Russia accounts for about 45% of the European Union’s natural gas imports.
Putin in response has made recent cuts in the amount of natural gas Russia would be supplying to Europe this winter, including a 40% cut to what will be flowing to Germany.
On Monday, Macron was overheard breaking some bad news to Biden at the G7 Summit.
Macron told Biden the United Arab Emirates (UAE) informed him that OPEC was already at its production maximum.
In light of recent media reports, I would like to clarify that the UAE is producing near to our maximum production capacity based on its current OPEC+ production baseline (3,168 mbopd) which UAE is committed by until the end of the agreement.

If true, this would create significant challenges to the global market following the boycott of Russian oil, by both nations, in response to Putin’s invasion of [redacted], according to Bloomberg.
After getting alarming forecasts of upcoming energy shortages by the three power companies, Engie, EDF, and TotalEnergies, France’s government announced that it will have to restart their coal-fueled power plant, the Saint-Avold, in northeast France, by this winter.
The power companies also warned that the general public must “immediately” cut back on energy use to better enable officials to better handle energy insecurity.
“We, therefore, call for awareness and collective and individual activities so that each of us – each consumer, each company – changes their behavior and immediately limits their consumption of energy, electricity, gas and petroleum products.”
“The effort must be immediate, collective, and massive,” they went on to say, emphasizing that “every gesture” towards this goal “counts”.
Germany has already announced that it will also be re-starting its own coal-burning capabilities in order to better deal with the ongoing energy crisis, with the country’s economic and climate Tsar, Robert Habeck, saying that the measures are necessary to conserve much-needed gas.
“To reduce gas consumption, less gas must be used to generate electricity. Coal-fired power plants will have to be used more instead,” he previously said, though admitted that he found it “bitter” that his green agenda-driven government had to rely on such a high emission fuel.
So America, we are paying massive increases in energy, because of our government’s mandated push for zero emissions by 2025. Even if the U.S. hits its emissions goals, it will not matter considering the 2 top polluting nations are not playing ball with the world.
China and India are not reducing, but increasing their use of fossil fuels for their energy production, and Putin has Europe firing back up their coal plants.
The Green New Deal agenda is obviously nothing more than a control mechanism being used by our U.S. government to advance the Great Reset’s 2030 goal of deconstructing our capitalistic system.
