You are being told at this very moment that these things are ‘snowflakes.’
Since Trump became President for the first time in 2017, climate seer Al Gore has not been seen much in public. Ruthless MAGA censorship made him something of a nonperson until his sudden reappearance at the World Economic Forum in Switzerland a few days ago. His public message there was grievously misreported as follows:
Had the truth not been vigorously repressed by White House minions, we would have learned of Gore’s real purpose, to broadcast a warning about the most sinister conspiracy yet perpetrated by the autocratic Trump regime. To understand the real and imminent danger confronting us, we must revisit the history most of us already know in general terms.
Back in 2006, the former Presidential candidate from whom an election really was stolen issued a warning to the world. He had, in fact, put the science together and metaphorically traveled in time to a future in which climate change would imperil human life on earth.
In a video modestly titled An Inconvenient Truth, Gore made a series of dire predictions, including the following:
20-Foot Sea Level Rise: Gore predicted that the melting of major ice sheets in Greenland or West Antarctica could raise global sea levels by approximately 20 feet (6 meters). He warned this would flood major coastal areas like Florida and New York, potentially creating 100 million refugees.
Ice-Free Arctic Summers: In 2009, Gore cited research suggesting a "75% chance" that the entire north polar ice cap could be nearly ice-free during summer months within five to seven years (by 2014-2016).
Increased Hurricane Intensity: Following Hurricane Katrina, Gore suggested that global warming was causing more frequent and intense hurricanes.
Shutting Down Ocean Currents: He warned that fresh meltwater from Greenland could halt the North Atlantic conveyor belt (the currents that keep Northern Europe warm), potentially triggering dramatic local cooling there.
Mass Extinction and Habitation: More recently, Gore has warned that a "sixth great extinction" could eliminate half of all species on Earth and that extreme heat could render parts of the Middle East, North Africa, and South Asia uninhabitable. He frequently cites the accumulation of greenhouse gases as trapping as much extra energy daily as 500,000 Hiroshima-class atomic bombs.
All but the last of these predictions has, as we’re painfully aware, come to pass.
We remember when Times Square became a lake that couldn’t be pumped dry.
As we struggled vainly against rising sea levels, we were still shocked by the violence of storms like Hurricane Sandy, which struck the Atlantic shoreline at York, Pennsylvania, in 2012.
While everything to the left of the Mississippi was baking..
To avoid utter public despair the Government never disclosed the full extent of the casualties from that storm, but we saw enough of the photographic evidence to guess at a truth which had become more than inconvenient.
O the Humanity!
No one realized that the real catastrophe was yet to come. With so much of the northeastern United States underwater, it was comparatively easy for Donald Trump to beat Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election. The vicious political seesaw since then has tended to obscure the growing calamities of climate change. The Trump administration’s partnership with Russia, exposed during the course of his tragic term in office, led to a brief restoration of sanity in the Biden administration. That under appreciated President’s greatest achievement was the humanitarian rescue of 40 to 50 million otherwise doomed souls from Central and South America, whose homelands had been cooked to a crisp by rising temperatures. None of us liked to see the photos of what remained of that continent’s rainforests, so we looked away instead.
The Amazon Rainforest in 2021
Our deliberate blindness to such apocalyptic catastrophe led, of course, to a second Trump term, which has been marked by exacerbation of fossil-fueled temperature increases and the resulting firestorms that worsened destroyed half of California in 2025, thus disabling the most intelligent voters in the nation from leading the impeachment effort against an administration that seemingly didn’t care about climate issues.
Meanwhile, Gore’s prediction about European cooling was also coming true. The waning of North Sea oil and European sex drives (with an unknown assist from the ocean currents problem) was reducing the effects of global warming there, even as the Middle East was breaking the thermometer.
All that’s left of Mecca in ambient temps of 150 deg F.
Why so many millions of refugees from the Middle East moved north into Western Europe and renewed their war with Israel. The mission there was no longer land but Israeli air conditioning technology, the best in the world by far. Why the second Trump administration intervened. They too had a vital interest they were keeping secret.
Until today that is, when it became possible to discover what has really been going on, a conspiracy that makes Russia Russia look as trivial as Watergate.
Here was today’s lead story at the National Pulse:
Denial of Global Warming here and in his big speech to the World Economic Forum is unquestionably the real reason why the mass media started coughing up all that 25th Amendment chatter. Of all the lies he could ever tell, the claim that climate change is a hoax is the most obviously outrageous one Trump could trumpet to the skies. Why did he tell it so loudly and universally? Because it was the signal to the initiated of what is about to occur.
Things just don’t get any more nefarious than this. A storm is coming, but it’s not a snowstorm. Already today, some local TV news weatherman has probably shown you images like the ones at the top of this post. He is trying to convince you that these intricate structures are ‘snowflakes,’ reminding you of a reality you’ve never seen, because who remembers snow? Here’s what the now extinct weather phenomenon called snow really looks like under a microscope.
Random chunks just like you always knew they were.
Those things up top look like they were designed because they were designed, which does not happen in nature, but only in science. What they are is nanobytes, and the so-called “winter storm of the century” is in reality a jump-starting of the final process Al Gore accurately predicted in 2007. Except that it should have taken a lot longer to get here. Would have taken a lot longer if it weren’t for the dark ministrations of Elon Musk, who is completing the Hitlerian Trump plan of finally ridding the world of undesirables. Meaning everybody in the world but the small population of the world’s billionaires who will ride out the nanostorm in a luxurious artificial cavern (magnificently cooled by Israeli air conditioners) underneath the Mar A Lago golf course.
What will the rest of us experience? A brief period of technologically induced and magnified cold produced by billions of nano-particles that are, in fact, ticking bombs. While millions are hunkered down against the “snowstorm,’ the nanotechnology will do its job. On cue the nanos will explode into a tsunami of intense heat that will bring — what did Gore predict?…
…A “sixth great extinction" eliminating half of all species on Earth and extreme heat rendering parts of the Middle East, North Africa, and South Asia uninhabitable. The accumulation of greenhouse gases [will produce] as much extra energy daily as 500,000 Hiroshima-class atomic bombs.
Will anybody be ready? No. They’ll be buried in rolls of toilet paper, gallons of milk, stacks of ‘C’ and ‘D’ batteries to run electric appliances that will be as cooked as the lifeless bodies arrayed around them.
Except for some of us really really smart MAGA types who are already in flight to that secret Shangri-La in Colorado where John Galt and Dagny Taggart are waiting to lead us in building our own Egoist Utopia in a vast air-conditioned cavern under the foothills of the Rockies powered by the residual energy of America’s buried nuclear waste. It’s perfect.
What?
Not happening? John Galt no more real than snowflakes? Shit.
Guess we’ll see you when we see you. On the other side.
Take a minute to look at the opener here. We all know this is pretty much how things are nowadays. Everything chaotic, backwards and upside down, as if some law of nature had been violated. Which it has. Early in this this century, wishful thinkers believed in a mirage called Hope and Change that turned out to be shallow, insincere, and small-minded. We survived that, sort of, but the ones who felt most betrayed, about 30 percent of the nation, believed they deserved more than the eight years of delusion which had been their sacrifice given in exchange for the real prize. In compensation, they wanted to elect a very bad woman to the Presidency of the United States. They were denied that wrongheaded but deeply felt desire. Since that bitter disappointment they have become obsessed with becoming as mean and hateful and ruthless as it took to wreak their revenge on the man who defeated them and the people who helped him do it. The bad woman led the legions of those smashing everythin...
AI is independently objective? Not politically biased? Not a powerful hidden censor? Guess again. This post isn’t about AI. But AI is now part of an increasingly ominous context in which the fate of western civilization is being played as both low comedy and high tragedy. I use an AI app as a satirical tool. It enables you to make still photos of faces say things from a long list of snappy quotes and music clips. A lot of the quotes are themselves satirical, with voices altered from the original speaker or singer, to make them funny in some other mouth. But they don’t like it when you use their little app to make certain sacred cows look stupid or dishonest. Any Every time the name Trump appears in a headline over a photo featuring one of his thousands of enemies, the Revive app is certain to flag your work in process as NSFW, as in not safe for work in the politically correct Progressive media environment. You’re not allowed. If you try to appease by moderating headlines o...
I won’t kid you. I’m exactly where Nancy Mace is on this case. Even Cluck and Buck were better at providing an appropriate legal context for the farce just played out in Massachusetts than the rest of the media. Drug and alcohol intoxication are not legal defenses in murder trials. Combat veterans suffering from documented hallucinogenic episodes of PTSD have also been convicted of murder and given harsh punishments. The PTSD diagnosis does not suffice for an insanity defense. It is sometimes admitted after the verdict as a possible mitigating factor in sentencing. In legal terms sanity is knowing the difference between right and wrong. Lindsey Clancy has no basis for claiming that she forgot it is wrong to murder three helpless children in your care. The cultural debate has been focused on the supposed uniqueness of female “feelings.” Which men cannot understand. Which is a crock. I understand the why’s wherefore’s of people wanting a Get Out of Jail Free card just ...
Predicted the last three economic meltdowns, from each of which he made a fortune. He’s been predicting the biggest one yet for a couple of months. There’s reason to take him seriously. He believes the President will invoke the Insurrection before the midterm elections. His argument is at the link. I advise you to watch his initial spiel, but not all of it until you’ve read I have to say. A delay recommended only because his video uses the ‘Infomercial’ tactic of going on and on and on until you’ve invested so much time it feels like commitment. I do not agree that Trump will invoke the Insurrection Act before the midterms but after if and only if he loses his majorities in Congress. Trump is still determined to win despite the many attempts that will be made to steal votes across the nation. That’s who he is. Here’s Rickards’s pitch . Here’s what I have to say, beginning from his Exhibit A on the Insurrection Act. That doesn’t mean it won’t be opposed tooth and cla...
Mad Max as you’re supposed to want her Having finished my Mad Max post yesterday, I realized I had confined my discussion of the ‘Instant Gratification’ problem to the MAGA fainthearts. Their inability to look far enough forward to envision consequences is far less than that of the whole half country full of Democrat apologists and Trump haters. Shouldn’t I address that fact in some comparable terms to what I just wrote? I guess so. The easy answer is referencing the two recent Mad Max sequels provided to us by Woke Hollywood. But I haven’t seen them. I had no interest in paying to see them in a theater. At one point I did put one of them, Furiosa I think, on my IMDB watch list. I received a notification that it would be briefly available on one of the streaming services and I did tune in to watch. Lost interest about 15 minutes in, by which time the old rules had it a good movie should have you hooked. I was not hooked. It was just the same cinematic backdrop as the Road W...
Who’s in charge of building the American ‘woman’ of the future? Everyone knows what TEMU is, right? Even I know what TEMU is, and I don’t have anything to do with TikTok. How can that be? I don’t even associate with the CCP-friendly mass media. But I do know and I’ll explain why. For those a little bit farther behind the curve, this is TEMU: Companies like TEMU are the reason why Trump is taking a harder line against China than every other treacherous trading partner of the United States. The Wall Street media crowd is actively hoping for a recession to cool Trump’s jets on the tariff thing. They can’t afford to lose the enormous subsidy their publications receive from Chinese advertisers. Anything is preferable to losing those big big bucks in a period when the suckers are no longer willing to read libels against themselves by paying to see behind a pay wall. The crisis of the Trump tariff policy (that’s “Trade War” in NYTspeak) is hitting TEMU too.. Oh. Right. The crisis is higher pr...
Happy Independence Day No. 250! I’m planning to do my part for the year-long celebration of the still remarkable birth of the United States of America. Just starting to realize that the number of us who remember the last big anniversary in 1976 is getting smaller every day. Why I have some special ideas about focusing on the moment of transition, that is the tick of the clock last night when the 249th year became the 250th. A kind of time capsule that may be buried now but dug up later to see who were way back when you were still as young as you think you are now. My credentials for the job. Quite a few actually, but the most important one today is that I was a working participant in the official Bicentennial celebrations back when I was still young. I wrote a post about it almost 10 years ago, ancient history in today’s 24/7 chronometer dial. In honor of the ones no longer with us from that time, I dug up the old post from the Wayback Machine and put it back together here a...
Another has-been life ruined beyond repair. Trump Curse writ large. Rosie O’Donnell still can’t get over the fact that Trump won the Republican nomination in 2016 by blowing off Megyn Kelly’s gotcha question about his mean tweets to women, using her as the completely understandable punchline. Millions of men, and even some women, said to themselves, “I would do that too.” She’s a sad case. But this latest outburst got me to thinking. Maybe I’ve been unfair to The Donald myself over the years. With my wife and others, I’ve taken the position that I admire Trump as a President and would-be savior of the Republic. I’ve also said I wouldn’t have him in my house for dinner. Or, less pompously, that I have never had any desire to meet him in person. I have fought strenuously for his political life and fortunes. No one can deny that. But I also fought for George W and Mitt Romney (as I had done for McCain, whom I genuinely despised) when they were running. Didn’t want to meet them...
Conflicted identity and media image woes By now we know if you’re a Democrat, getting elected isn’t about who you are, what you’ve done or haven’t done. It’s about how people see you. The factors that can do in a candidate are often more subtle than the pundits of the professional wrestling circuit called the mainstream media. Why we think it’s time to help the world’s most uninformed voters about who to elect as their next nominee for President. We’re not going to get all racist and sexist about it. The decision points we’ve discovered are all based on the individuals involved, not the immaterial fluff like experience or political philosophies. We’ll start right at the top and give you one simple thing to bear in mind before you try to pick a winner for 2028. Kamala Harris Not about the word salads or the escort thing. Too Desperate. Gavin Newsom Too Lyle Waggoner. Times change. Bernie Sanders Too ‘Little Big Man’ AOC Too prematurely passé Gretchen Whitmer Too Lily-White J...
If you’ve never seen an Asylum production of their “Saving the World from Imminent Destruction” series, you’re excused from this post. The rest of us already know the basics. A once prominent, now disgraced scientist (often Sam Baldwin, but not always) is minding his own business making a living income and trying to mend his struggling family life when he notices that something is seriously amiss in the cosmos. Gravity isn’t working quite right. Or all the birds seem to be migrating at the same time. Or some local pond suddenly ejaculates a pillar of lava. You know. The warning knell of an extinction-level catastrophe. Meanwhile, where are the kids? They were supposed to be home by now. He calls his ex-wife. She doesn’t know where they are. He calls an old colleague at the agency in DC where nobody else will take his calls anymore. In a whisper, the colleague tells him the experts in charge haven’t noticed anything to worry about cosmologically speaking. This far in, we already know wh...
