What a shit show…
Joe Biden may enjoy blanket protection from the domestic media despite his dismal first 100 days in the White House but he isn’t getting much love from down under.
Biden held his big climate summit on Thursday and Friday where he embarrassed the United States by being the only one of the world leaders who participated remotely to wear one of the facemasks that have become the symbol of his radically authoritarian party.
During the event, the nation’s 46th president laid out an agenda that would impose extreme changes on the nation to meet his vow to reduce 52% of “greenhouse gas” emissions in less than a decade.
Although Biden was vague on the details, experts quoted by the Daily Mail warned that such a plan would brutalize taxpayers, force a move to electric cars despite their questionable feasibility, and demand that Americans comply with dietary restrictions by prohibiting the consumption of red meat in excess of a minuscule amount mandated by the one-party government and their globalist allies.
It is a sad example of how far that the media has fallen when it takes an Australian journalist to call such ideas out as lunacy and to point out that the emperor has no clothes and that is exactly what Chris Kenny of Sky News did with an epic scourging of our pathetic leadership.
“Welcome to the loopy-left era of Joe Biden. Where climate policies apparently about existential alarmism.”
According to Kenny; “Last night we saw yet another climate summit. Another global gathering of world leaders parading their virtue, making grand promises, playing to the green left media zeitgeist, and never being accountable for any of their promises or actions,” he said. “The only difference this time is that they didn’t jump on their private jets and fly thousands of people at great expense producing hundreds of tons of greenhouse gas emissions to have their talk fast. No, this time they did it by Zoom and yes, there were glitches.”
He continued “And yet while the weather bureau can’t forecast 24 hours ahead, and bureaucrats can’t run a Zoom chat, these world leaders and the climate activists they pander to, tell us they do know what will happen to the climate decades from now, and even better, they know how to control it.”
He correctly pointed out that little is done to reign in the planet’s biggest polluter, “Even while they agree that the country that has by far the largest carbon footprint, China, can be allowed to continue to dramatically increase its emissions.” And don’t expect any pressure on a country that has it’s own footprint in the White House and virtually owns all of Corporate America.
Kenny added; “Now many of you will agree with me that in large part this alarmist and self-delusional attitude is nutty and deserves to be called out. But some of you will believe the spin that this is a rational response to the light of science,” he said. “well let me disavow you of this because you are about to hear from a person the U.S. put on this summit panel. Forty world leaders supposedly addressing serious scientific, economic, and policy issues and we got this: a New York-based Mexican teenager talking about mother Earth no less.”
He was referring to 19-year-old Xiye Bastida who was introduced by the feckless Secretary Of State Antony Blinken whose credibility disappeared the minute that he had his ass handed to him by the Chinese at the ballyhooed Anchorage talks earlier this month; it is simply astounding that Biden would sign off on a travesty like this.
What a pleasure to introduce @xiyebastida of @fridays4future at the #LeadersClimateSummit today. Xiye is an inspiration to us all as we work together to leave a better planet for the generations that will follow us. pic.twitter.com/dDFWSs6Fik

Kenny continued “Now I hear you, ok ok, you reckon it’s another radical teenager repeating a mantra of environmental and social slogans denouncing colonialism and capitalism and market solutions, wanting to use climate issues to promote a Marxist utopia. “But who cares? Universities and street protests in this country are full of these sorts of people, right? But this activist was put on the panel by the U.S.”
He was clearly incredulous of the absurdity; “she was introduced by the secretary of state of the most powerful nation on earth. “This is post-truth politics and we’re getting the very engine room of the global economy, the United States, the beacon for free countries, free people, and free markets and we’re getting the U.S. promoting this sort of nonsense on the global stage.”
Kenny said; “When you look at this rot, I’ll tell you how worrying it is if Che Guevera or Fidel Castro were still around it looks like Joe Biden would have them addressing this climate summit,” adding that “This is off the rails.”
If there is any more evidence needed that the current version of Biden is simply an empty vessel for the most extremist ideas to ever take root within the top leadership of the United States, the climate change summit just delivered it on a silver platter.
