Texas - wants to curb renewable energy use but of course …



According to the latest version of the bill (as of late May), any Texas resident with a large solar or wind system who wants to connect to the grid would need a permit. The lengthy permitting process requires a public meeting to allow comments, multiple surveys and assessments, and a website with information about the project.

SB 624 also requires that wind turbines be placed a whole 3,000 feet — more than half a mile — away from the property line, except with the permission of neighboring property owners.

Texas #SB624 would turn all of Texas into an HOA where your neighbors are now going to be able to tell you what you can and can’t do on your own property,” tweeted Rhodes.

As it’s currently written, the bill applies to facilities with a capacity of 10 megawatts or higher to connect “with a transmission facility.” That wouldn’t include small residential systems, which are usually between one and four kilowatts (0.001 to 0.004 megawatts), according to Yes Energy Solutions.

However, it would apply to the many wind farms set up by rural property owners across Texas, Rhodes said.

According to Rhodes, some ranch owners may even have to sell their properties as this bill would end their right to use the land the way they want.

Power Up Texas claims the new bill will not only harm Texas landowners financially but it will also make the energy grid less stable and raise the cost of electricity for everyone.

According to state legislators, the bill’s purpose is to protect wildlife, water, and land from the effects of energy generation. But it’s telling that the proposed law applies only to nonpolluting wind and solar, rather than heavily polluting energy sources like coal and oil that have a much harsher impact on our air and our planet.
Second Amendment people got anything to say about it? Liberty! Freedom! Damn regulations!

Right, the adults probably won't change. In any case, to me, Plan A is Democrats continue with their own plans to enrich the lives of the people of the US and cultists can take from it what they want without protected status. I think demographic drift will eventually take care of the problem.


Millenials and Plurals will be the majority of potential voters by 2028 and 60% by 2036

2026 is the tipping point.
Are we sure how they're going to vote? Those labels just describe the time period they were born in. There are sure to be some children of magats in the pool, think they'll vote for democrats?

I can hear this deal being made like i was in the same fucking room.
Republicunts : "Why don't you join us, joe? You've been a republican your entire career, you just call yourself a democrat."
Manshit: "I don't want to be seen as the traitor to my party and country that i really am."
Republicunts : "Well, tell you what joe, we'll back your third party run against Biden, under the table, of course, and when you fail to win, but cost Biden votes, then we'll welcome you to the party publicly."
Manshit : "Yeah, that could work. Will i still be able to keep my dirty coal company and the ONE power plant that buys it from me open?"
Republicunts : "Well of course joe, we all have our shady money making deals, who could expect us to be able to live on a mere 174 thousand dollar salary? "

Now I get her snubbing the House Freedom Caucus.

Marjorie Taylor Greene aims to be Trump's VP pick in 2024
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., is angling to be Donald Trump's running mate in 2024, according to two people who have spoken to the firebrand second-term congresswoman about her ambitions.

"This is no shrinking violet. She's ambitious — she's not shy about that, nor should she be," said Steve Bannon, the former top Trump aide who hosts the "Bannon's War Room" podcast, on which Greene has been a guest.

"She sees herself on the short list for Trump's VP. Paraphrasing Cokie Roberts, when MTG looks in the mirror she sees a potential president smiling back," he added in an interview, referring to Roberts, the late political reporter who worked for NPR, ABC News and other outlets.

A second source who has advised Greene said her "whole vision is to be vice president." The source, who has ties to Trump and spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe private conversations, said he also believes Greene would be on Trump's short list.

That goal is at the heart of Greene's recent efforts to rebrand herself as a politician who can stand astride the divide between the party's hard-liners and its establishment wing, the sources said.

It also helps explain why she threw herself into helping elect Rep. Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., speaker of the House after the midterm elections and took assignments on two committees — Homeland Security and Oversight and Accountability — where she can participate in high-profile investigations of President Joe Biden's administration. McCarthy also chose her to be part of the panel investigating how the government handled the Covid-19 pandemic.

Her push for McCarthy alienated some of her allies in the House Freedom Caucus and like-minded conservative activists, but that was a calculated risk, Bannon said.

"She's both strategic and disciplined — she made a power move, knowing it would run up hard against her most ardent crew," he said. "She was prepared to take the intense heat/hatred short-term for the long-term goal of being a player."

Trump has not publicly given any indication that he is seriously considering a vice presidential pick this early in the process, and aides did not respond to inquiries about Greene’s chances of ending up on a Trump ticket.

"Congresswoman Greene is laser focused on serving the people of Northwest Georgia on her new committees in the GOP majority," Greene spokesman Nick Dyer said by text message. "Her work on Oversight, Homeland Security, and the COVID Select committee is her priority and people shouldn’t get wrapped up into rumors."

In February 2021, the House, then controlled by Democrats, voted to remove Greene from legislative committees as punishment for "conduct she has exhibited" that fellow lawmakers found detrimental to the reputation of Congress. Eleven Republican moderates joined all of the Democrats in voting to strip her of seats on the Budget Committee and the Education and Labor Committee.

McCarthy stood by Greene at the time, facilitating the development of a political alliance. With Republicans having taken control of Congress this month, the McCarthy-led GOP Steering Committee placed Greene on two panels that will give her a platform to attack Biden, who is expected to seek re-election.

he won’t pick her. When he makes the inevitable crude pass, she’s likely to break him.
I'm not so sure, she's a handmaiden, a priestess of the cult, she may consider it an honor to have that fat, waddling, diaper wearing pile of shit impregnate her.
Excuse me for a minute, i have to soak my head in a tub of peroxide to detoxify it after that image.
