It's simply amazing that the U.S. was somehow able to accomplish this without being a party to the Paris Climate Accord. Well, actually we only JUST left the Paris Accord last week.

The word of the decade, is audit. Followed closely by accountability.
You forgot "affordability," but that only really became an issue when Biden needed to get re-elected and he tried to act like the three years of crazy-high inflation rates was somehow someone else's fault, and it got intensified when Trump took office and the democrats attacked him over egg prices (until they dropped), then the tried gasoline prices (until they dropped), now they complain that Trump hasn't been able to wind prices back to pre-Biden levels (ignoring Biden's responsibility for the crazy inflation during his administration - remember when they tried to distract with the word "transitory"?).
Norfolk Naval Base was created to protect the off-shore turbine farm? Wow, talk about long-range planning!
I like how dismiss the possibility of wind turbines interfering with radar by pointing out that experts are currently busy working on the problem you just dismissed... what?
The "block" was trivial, it paused 18 turbines while 44 were already in operation.
Seems to "reduction" or "limited" were better words to describe Trump Admin's actions.

I mean there's solid evidence that Republican voter suppression prevented 7 million Americans from voting.
Linking to someone saying 7 million votes were suppressed is not proof votes were suppressed - you understand that, right?
What is the 'solid evidence'?
If they had the evidence so many here claim, why was Trump "unindicted"?
These are the people that turned every installment payment to his lawyer into a literal felony, but they just sat on their hands and didn't charge Trump despite a mountain of evidence? Why? It makes no sense.
There was more than enough to stop Trump without even touching the Epstein stuff.
Then why isn't Waltz VP to President Harris?
Why couldn't Democrats bring him down? Are they really that incompetent?
Joe Biden, being a man of principles
And that's where you lost me.
This is the Joe Biden that had the Ukrainian Prosecutor fired before giving Ukraine $1BN in much needed aid while Vice President?
The Joe Biden that had classified documents in his Philadelphia office tgat was paid for by Chinese front companies?
The Joe Biden that called and took calls from Hunter at random times "just to discuss the weather" while Hunter was meeting with foreign business leaders?
The Joe Biden that claims to be intimately involved in his Sons life, but for a decade or more claims to have never asked Hunter who he works with/for, because...
No, Joe Biden has several redeeming features, but "Joe Biden, being a man of principles"? Uh, no.
After all, as the documents show, he was there on multiple occasions and the girls, not women, refused to enter a room when he was around.
What documents?
Trump borrowed Epstein plane a couple times while trumps plane was being worked on.
The one victim that went public and named names said she'd never seen Trump be anything. It kind to the girls, never had sex with any of them, and if you dig a little bit you'll find that Trump was the only person interviewed by the feds that actually made himself available and was very forthcoming with details about Epstein.
I find it hard to believe there are actual documents as you describe that implicate Trump and the Democrats just sat on it during Biden admin, when they were so desperate to attack Trump they tried to convict him for a rape when the victim couldn't remember where it happened or even what year it happened? They just sat on those documents until Trump got back in office, then suddenly remembered they had proof of bad behavior by Trump?
You really need to cite the "documents" you imagine exist and implicate the President.
Forbes names the two billionaires that EACH paid Epstein close to $200M each ($400M total), and each has publicly admitted to it, much to their detriment, but you know better, right?
People have their panties in a bunch because someone comes from Mexico during the harvest season to pick crops,
So, to be clear, at the height of the Biden administration we needed hundreds of thousands additional Mexican nationals to pick crops? In NYC? Chicago? Etc...
Tens of thousands of people went to pick crops in Manhattan, tens of thousands went to Chicago, and so on EVERY month, where are all those crop field in Chicago, NYC? And please, explain the 80,000 Somalis living in Minnesota - are they all there to pick crops? Really?
High-end clients pay prostitutes to leave and be quiet about what happened - some require NDAs - it isn't hard for a literal billionaire to find someone to have sex with, the struggle is to keep it quiet afterwards
So you are really thinking that Epstein did little more than run a very high-end whore house?
You know he made his money managing other people's money, right? I mean, that has been the claim all along. He treated the girls as disposable play things, using/abusing them, giving them to friends and guests that came to visit him... there really is no evidence that I've seen that Epstein was a pimp in any traditional way. I guess you think somewhere in the warehouse of documents they've seized there is a price list and a client list with a record of every contact between his hoes and the Johns?
He had two billionaire clients who each paid him nearly $200M each for his assistance over the years: https://www.forbes.com/sites/g...
Los Angeles is moving to ban single-use printer cartridges that can't be refilled or taken back for recycling. Tom's Hardware reports:
What single-use printer cartridges can't be recycled?
I bet the folks in the Palisades and Malibu, well, the folks that used to live in the Palisades and Malibu, are happy that LA Gov't is focusing on the issues that matter most to Angelenos...
assuming launch cost of $20 per kg which is actually double the $10 per kg that both Stoke Space and SpaceX are claiming they will achieve with re-usable flight.
What? I can put a Kg in orbit for $20? That's close to first class postal rates, that seems a bit off... SpaceX Falcon Heavy costs $1,400 per Kg today they plan/hope to reduce that cost in the future...
