SAN JOSE, Calif. " The San Jose Sharks have apologized after an apparent offensive message seeming to praise Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) was displayed on the arena's scoreboard during the team's Hispanic heritage celebration on Saturday night against the Pittsburgh Penguins. Video shared with CNN showed the scoreboard displaying: "SJ SHARKS FANS LOVE ICE !! GET EM BOYZ !" Some fans at SAP Center in San Jose, California, can be heard booing in response. read more

The stretch of semi-rural land on No. 6 Road in Richmond, B.C., is home to blueberry farms, multimillion-dollar mansions and an 18-hole golf course. Those Metro Vancouver properties are all now encompassed by a landmark Aboriginal title claim that was successfully established by the Cowichan Nation last week. The ruling in B.C. Supreme Court confirmed Cowichan Aboriginal title and fishing rights over the stretch of land on Lulu Island next to the south arm of the Fraser River, where the nation historically had a summer village and members fished for salmon. read more

Which is of course is completely false all the way around.

If give a link, its explains the industry and why they are pulling out.

Solar power is becoming cheaper than fossil fuels

If this were true then energy companies wouldn't be leaving the industry, why would anyone leave something that is profitable.

And the profit margin is around 20% depending on the size of the project.

This is absolute BS. In 2020 solar projects went bankrupt : en.wikipedia.org

However, 2024 has brought immense challenges, with higher interest rates, tighter financing, and adverse policy shifts in key states contributing to over 100 solar bankruptcies based on our industry data, a number unseen before in our almost 20 years in the solar sector.

California was particularly hard hit due to new net metering rules under NEM 3.0 that radically reduced system economics.

If you want to know the future of energy, simply look to where nearly all energy ever consumed on this planet has its origins: The sun.

So nuclear fission?

You know the oil industry is in the renewable industry right? To them is energy. To you its a religion.

Why Do Big Oil Companies Invest in Green Energy?

The reality is without the subsidies renewables wouldn't happen, the idea of the subsidies was to help the industry get to scale. But the fact is the renewables doesn't seem to be profitable.

These are the same Republicans who said it isn't torture until it results in organ failure or death.

Interesting doing some research. Obama (Libya) and Clinton (Kosovo) did this similar side step with the same response. Kosovo and Libya had the military much more exposed than today.

"that argument says they could shoot an ICBM nuclear missile into Venezuela and that wouldn't be hostilities"

I didn't find any one making that claim for Clinton or Obama; For sure Obama would have benefited from this policy, as the US lost a F-15 in Libya due to malfunction;

But I did find this ...


President Bill Clinton didn't bother to get prior legislative permission for his Kosovo war and sidestepped the War Powers Resolution thereafter. And Mr. Obama hasn't lifted a finger in the last two months to get Congress's consent for his Libyan operation.

When Mr. Obama first announced the Libyan intervention along with our NATO allies, he claimed constitutional authority as chief executive and commander in chief and said he was acting "consistent with" the War Powers Resolution. Congress has shown no interest in authorizing our limited military operations, nor has it provided any funding. At this point, if the president were to seek approval, Congress would likely refuse.

The administrations argued that the WPA's 60-day limit was not triggered because the mission constituted "kinetic military action" rather than full-scale "hostilities" involving a significant risk of U.S. casualties or ground troops.

I suppose it's bad when Trump does it but not when Obama and Clinton do it? Seems that is what the "brain trust" of TruthLies & Snoofy claim?

Do you guys research anything? I mean seriously this wasn't hard to find.
