Energy Prices Shot Up 72% Thanks To Biden And Harris’ War On American Energy

Published

on

Critics of former President Donald Trump often claim he is lying. Much of the time, however, the critics fail to recognize he is simply using hyperbole to highlight the problems Democrats and establishment Republicans are causing across our country.

Sunday night, Trump was at it again during his campaign rally at New York’s Madison Square Garden. He told the crowd, “We will achieve energy independence … We’re gonna drill, baby, drill. And I will terminate the green new scam and will cut your energy prices in half, 50 percent, within one year from Jan. 20.”

Trump was not spreading fake news. During the first three years of the Biden-Harris administration, electricity prices nationwide have skyrocketed. There is hope for major reductions in energy prices — if American politicians will repent of their support for renewable energy.

As I show in a new study by the Energy Alliance, wholesale electricity prices increased 72 percent during the first three years of the Biden-Harris administration. The energy prices for the seven U.S. independent regional service areas averaged $70 per megawatt hour during that period, up from $41 from 2018 to 2020.

Texas had the highest average wholesale price, the price paid by electric retailers — at $117 over the last three years. It also had the highest three-year increase at 208 percent. California and New York had the next highest increases. All these states have heavily promoted and subsidized renewable energy.

Using data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration, our study found that

Lying Media Rush To Smear Trump, Defend Warhawk Liz Cheney

Published

on

When former President Donald Trump criticized former Rep. Liz Cheney for trying to push Americans into war, the legacy media rushed to her defense, twisting Trump’s words to make it seem like he was threatening her with a firing squad. 

“She’s a radical warhawk. Let’s put her with a rifle, standing there with nine barrels shooting at her, okay? Let’s see how she feels about it, when the guns are trained on her face. They’re all warhawks when they’re sitting in Washington in a nice building saying, ‘Gee, let’s send 10,000 troops right into the mouth of the enemy,’” Trump said Thursday at a campaign event with Tucker Carlson. 

Clearly, Trump was saying Cheney wants to send Americans to die in overseas wars. He pointed out she — and other D.C. elites in the military-industrial complex — would never put themselves in the positions they are placing the nation’s soldiers. 

“I’d have meetings with a lot of people, and she always wanted to go to war with people,” Trump said.

But legacy media, in typical style, cherry-picked Trump’s comments to make it seem he — not Cheney — was inciting violence. 

“Trump uses violent rhetoric to attack ‘war hawk’ Liz Cheney,” reads a headline from Good Morning America. The host attacked Trump and applauded Harris during Friday morning’s show

She said Trump was using “increasing dark and violent rhetoric against his political rivals … even suggesting former House Republican leader Liz Cheney, who has endorsed Kamala Harris, be put in

Vance Says The Problem With The Washington Post Lies In Its ‘Journalism,’ ‘Not With The Editorials’

Published

on

Republican vice presidential candidate J.D. Vance diagnosed the problems with the Washington Post as residing in the paper’s overall “journalism” rather than just on the editorial page.

“The Washington Post might as well be a propaganda outlet of the Democratic Party,” Vance said during an interview on Joe Rogan’s podcast published Thursday. “If you look from the Hunter Biden laptop to any number of stories where they just toe the left-wing line almost instinctively, the problem was with the journalism at the Washington Post. It’s not with the editorials.”

Vance spoke after The Washington Post’s senior leadership ignited a media meltdown last week for their refusal to formally back a presidential candidate this cycle. Vice President Kamala Harris is the first Democrat not to receive an official endorsement from the Post’s editorial board since 1992. More than a dozen opinion columnists for the paper condemned the decision of the Post with a joint statement published shortly after the announcement.

“This is a moment for the institution to be making clear its commitment to democratic values, the rule of law and international alliances, and the threat that Donald Trump poses to them — the precise points

USPS Failing To Deliver Ballots Is The New Normal Under Democrats’ Mail Voting Regime

Published

on

The United States Postal Service (USPS) said Monday they expect their “Election Mail performance in 2024 to be equal to or better than 2020.” But that doesn’t suffice when an election will be decided on the margins and numerous voters across the country are reporting that they never received the mail-in ballots that they requested.

In Scarborough, Maine, one voter told WGME that she voted in person on Monday because the mail in ballot she previously requested never arrived. It’s a similar story told by fellow Scarborough voter Glenn Grant, who reportedly wanted to vote by mail.

“But the ballot has never come, which says something about our mail service,” Grant told WGME.

Meanwhile USPS “failed to deliver an unknown number of ballots in Coos County, Oregon, and it didn’t deliver up to 300 ballots in Whitman County, Washington,” The Associated Press reported, citing election officials. Coos County Clerk Julie Brecke said her office has received nonstop calls due to ballots not arriving “as a result of an error at USPS,” according to The AP.

Meanwhile Whitman County said that a third-party vendor delivered roughly 24,000 ballots to the post office on Oct. 16 where they were all marked. But roughly 300 ballots are still missing.

“I don’t know where they went after that,” Whitman County Auditor Sandy Jamison said, according to The Associated Press.

In Bend, Oregon, the USPS claimed it has finally caught up with mail deliveries after several residents reported having not received their Nov.
