A second little ice age is coming.
How cold? Estimates, based on a study of prior sunspot reductions approaching a grand minimum phase, are that we’ll witness a 7 percent drop in the Sun’s light and heat — and recall, that’s 7 percent lower than the lowest of the 11-year cycle that we typically see.
Such a great minimum happened around the middle of the 17th century. Known as the "Maunder Minimum†(from the names of 2 well respected solar astronomers of the time, Anne Russel Maunder and Edward Walter Maunder), the corresponding cold temperatures saw the river Thames freeze, and the Baltic Sea as well — which permitted a Swedish army to infiltrate Denmark by rushing across the ice.
At the same time, Alaska and Southern Greenland warmed, due to the weakening of the Earth’s stratospheric ozone layer, which modifies wind and weather conditions throughout the planet.
The exact timing and intensity of the disaster are still in discussion, but the indicators all point to things bottoming out around the year 2050. It might start as soon as 2030, however. Just for context, the Maunder Minimum lasted from 1645 to roughly 1715.
And then they have to interject the obligatory "global warming is going to kill us all" in the paper - and the story. Sheesh! Makes me doubt the whole thing to some degree. Why can't science just be about science and not have apolitical tinge to everything? There was no reason to add anything about carbon-dioxide driven warming (which isn't happening anyway.)

Another job "Americans just won't do" I guess. How long before the Democrats begin calling for training illegal aliens to take these positions?
U.S. Airlines, Desperate for Pilots, Cutting Training Requirements
Isn't this mess a direct result of draconian pandemic restrictions and compulsory vaccinations and other strongearm tactics use by the airlines and FAA and CDC? So now safety will suffer to fix a problem caused by an attempt to fix a problem caused by central planning. Brilliant!

The Left may be inventive, but they like to reuse the same old themes. And the Biden Junta is especially bereft of original thinkers; they are probably going to try to ride the same wave that put them in office (or allowed them to steal it anyway.)
Case in point; they seem to be gearing up to stoke fears of a new pandemic, this time using an African relative of smallpox - monkeypox.
From Fox News:
President Joe Biden said Sunday the new monkeypox outbreak should concern "everybody," as it continues to baffle medical officials around the world.
"Everybody should be concerned about [it]," Biden said in South Korea, while speaking with a group of reporters before he boarded Air Force One for Japan, Reuters reported.
The president’s remarks come as numerous outbreaks of monkeypox were reported in Africa, followed by other reported cases in Europe and the U.S.
[...]
Christian Happi, director of the African Centre of Excellence for Genomics of Infectious Diseases, similarly said he’s "never seen anything like what's happening in Europe."
According to WHO estimates, monkeypox could be fatal for up to one-in-ten people, though its similarity to the smallpox virus allows smallpox vaccinations to provide some protection.
Welcome to the latest panicdemic! And if not this then they have something new in the deck.
CNN gives away another part of the game:
"Treatment is generally supportive as there are no specific drugs
available. However, a vaccine is available that can be given to prevent
the development of disease," Jimmy Whitworth, professor of
international public health at the London School of Hygiene &
Tropical Medicine, said in a statement.
So, more vaccinations from the people who have killed a bunch of elderly and young athletes.
More money for the drug companies and Bill Gates.
And then there is this little tidbit:
Transmission between people occurs primarily through large respiratory droplets, and because such droplets typically travel only a few feet, "prolonged face-to-face contact is required," the CDC said.
Got that? It means MORE MASKING! Yes, just when you thought it was over, like a bad Dracula movie the face tampon will return.
Dr. Evil himself, Mr. Vaccine, Bill Gates, has threatened us with another pandemic
And he warned about distrust of government:
But, a particular problem could slow or derail much of that progress, he predicted: people’s distrust of governments. "It’s one of the issues I’m most worried about heading into 2022,†he wrote.
Basically it's "shut up and let your betters run things."
Gates and Ruling Class types like him have no faith in free markets or the efficacy of a free and informed public. Instead he sees the average person as requiring constant supervision and guidance. Sadly he's right, because people like him have dumbed down education to make it easier for people like him to insert themselves into this role.
I would add Gates is urging governments to pour billions into research in this field. I ask; isn't that what gave us this pandemic in the first place? Government "gain of function" research likely created the souped up version of SARS Covid 2 that came to be called Covid 19 (rather than the China or Wuhan virus, as it would customarily be named). I don't know about everyone else but I think governments have done quite enough research on pathogens.
Meanwhile the Chinese-dominated World Health Organization is attempting to seize world power with an update to a treaty that will allow it to overrule national sovereignty in the event of a pandemic, thus imposing international pandemic conventions on any state (such as Sweden) whether they like it or not.
It's a way to backdoor world government. Does anyone doubt there will be a new pandemic? And the Biden junta has been quietly working to implement this thing, hidden by the many other disasters the lawless Administration has engendered.
And, as Rahm Emmanuel famously stated, a leftist should never let a good crisis go to waste. It has been clear they have been using this pandemic to advance their cause, and no doubt they would like another.
Pandemics can cause massive societal upheaval.
According to Andrew Latham, who teaches a course on the historical effects of pandemics:
Three previous plagues could yield some clues about the way COVID-19 might bend the arc of history. As I teach in my course "Plagues, Pandemics and Politics,†pandemics tend to shape human affairs in three ways.
First, they can profoundly alter a society’s fundamental worldview. Second, they can upend core economic structures. And, finally, they can sway power struggles among nations.
[...]
The Antonine plague, and its twin, the Cyprian plague – both now widely thought to have been caused by a smallpox strain – ravaged the Roman Empire from A.D. 165 to 262. It’s been estimated that the combined pandemics’ mortality rate was anywhere from one-quarter to one-third of the empire’s population.
While staggering, the number of deaths tells only part of the story. This also triggered a profound transformation in the religious culture of the Roman Empire.
On the eve of the Antonine plague, the empire was pagan. The vast majority of the population worshipped multiple gods and spirits and believed that rivers, trees, fields and buildings each had their own spirit.
Christianity, a monotheistic religion that had little in common with paganism, had only 40,000 adherents, no more than 0.07% of the empire’s population.
Yet within a generation of the end of the Cyprian plague, Christianity had become the dominant religion in the empire.
[...]
The Black Death broke out in Europe in 1347 and subsequently killed between one-third and one-halfof the total European population of 80 million people. But it killed more than people. By the time the pandemic had burned out by the early 1350s, a distinctly modern world emerged – one defined by free labor, technological innovation and a growing middle class.
Before the Yersinia pestis bacterium arrived in 1347, Western Europe was a feudal society that was overpopulated. Labor was cheap, serfs had little bargaining power, social mobility was stymied and there was little incentive to increase productivity.
But the loss of so much life shook up an ossified society.
And here is the money quote:
None of this is to argue that the still-ongoing COVID-19 pandemic will have similarly earth-shattering outcomes. The mortality rate of COVID-19 is nothing like that of the plagues discussed above, and therefore the consequences may not be as seismic.
But there are some indications that they could be.
Will the bumbling efforts of the open societies of the West to come to grips with the virus shattering already-wavering faith in liberal democracy, creating a space for other ideologies to evolve and metastasize?
Got that?
If the Left is thinking along these lines (and most Leftists believe in the inevitability of their worldview even while they fight desperately to promote it's implementation) then they see this as The Revolution handed to them via CRISPR technology.
Read more on the WHO power grab.
So look for a new pandemic soon - and a new demand for world government to "protect" us. Welcome to the Kingdom of the Beast.

From Breitbart:
Business activity in New York state declined sharply and unexpectedly in May, a report from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York showed Monday.
The New York Fed’s Empire State survey of manufacturing showed business activity plunged. The index of general business conditions fell 36.2 points to a negative reading of 11.6 in May.

So, Robert Mueller spent two years and millions of tax dollars investigating Russian collusion. He couldn't find any.
But somehow, he never discovered that as the sworn testimony in the Sussman trial just proved, the hoax came directly from Hillary Clinton herself.
Most expensive and extensive case of selective
blindness in history. It was ALL fake—the Alfa Bank, the "golden
showers" pee tape, the Russiagate connection ... and the biggest fake
of all was the Mueller "investigation"
Tim adds:
This has two and only two possibilities. One, he's Inspector Clouseau. I do not believe that; how could someone rise to the top in an investigative organization with that type of incompetence? The second option is he did what he was supposed to do. Drag this out to smear Trump as long as possible. Heads SHOULD roll either way. Nobody that inept or that corrupt should have been anywhere near the top echelons of power.

Have you noticed, now Twitter is begging Musk to finish the deal; in fact, it is threatening to sue Musk to compel him to buy them. The hold up is that Musk demanded to see proof that the membership numbers they filed with the SEC are not bots.
Tim replies:
Leads me to suspect Musk wanted to expose Twitter more than buy them. Perhaps he knew all along this would be the case?

So much for the "unused lease†gaslighting.
Biden Admin Quietly Admits Math Error is Causing Massive Oil, Gas Permitting Delays
We all knew Biden was blowing smoke up our posteriors with these claims. And here Pelosi is calling hearings to look at "price gouging" by the oil companies, when in fact the oil companies are as much victims of this despicable illegal junta as anyone.

Yeah, this Buffalo shooter was a real conservative!
Mad Vax: Yo, Buffalo was a Left Leaning Covid Nazi, Wore Hazmat Suit to School
Seems our hero was heavily into Marxism when he was younger but then "mellowed" to authoritarian leftist National Socialism. He also called himself a Green eco-fascist and a non-Christianwho was terrified of Wuflu.
Now that the media has everyone believing this guy is a Tucker Carlson watching MAGA maniac, we will hear silence from them. They will do nothing to correct the lie they propogated.

Then there was the day I turn on the tube here in Canada and who's talking? None other than Jessie Ventura....ex-governor of Minnesota and it's his show called Conspiracy Theory. In that episode, he's in Alaska trying to gain access to a facility named HAARP and they really don't want to allow him into a place that shoots radio waves into the atmosphere to experiment with weather patterns.
Richard Cronin adds:
HAARP was developed as part of Reagan’s Star Wars program. It derived from the thoughts of Nikola Tesla to provide a global power distribution system. Power-conducting cables would be borne aloft by balloons to connect with the ionosphere. Power generated on Earth would flow thru these cable to energize the ionosphere and allow power consumers to launch power conductors into the ionosphere to conduct the electricity back down to the consumer.
Bernard Englund worked on HAARP, and obtained several patents to modify the weather via HAARP. Something about steering the Jet Stream.
Jesse Ventura sez HAARP is used for global mind control, but that’s even too weird for me — but who knows ? The world is run by lunatics.
The original antennae array is visible on Google Maps, just a short distance outside Gakona, Alaska.
Once the lunatics at the Defense Advanced Research Project Agency (DARPA) get a new toy, they don’t give it up. They just tweak it to make it more powerful. The latest evolution is mounted on the U.S. Navy SBX-1 ships.

La Niña conditions predicted to persist thru 2022/2023.
El Niños provide shearing winds over the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean Sea, suppressing hurricanes. The La Niña does the opposite, so you can plan on a greater number of Atlantic hurricanes, as was the case last summer. Queue the alarmists to freak out.
"A stronger high-pressure area is found over the northeastern United States as we have seen in the La Nina signal†( Note - The high pressure center will serve to block any hurricane landfalls in this region).
"Most of the western half of the United States is under some level of drought conditions. The driest conditions prevail in the southern and northwestern United States.†( Note - The alarmists will freak out — again).
In summary, we will have weather.

Here's Democrat consultant Patrick Reddy in 1998:
"The 1965 Immigration Reform Act promoted by President Kennedy, drafted by Attorney General Robert Kennedy, and pushed through the Senate by Ted Kennedy has resulted in a wave of immigration from the Third World that should shift the nation in a more liberal direction within a generation. It will go down as the Kennedy family’s greatest gift to the Democratic Party."
So could y'all please STOP with the lie that this is some kind of conservative conspiracy fantasy or some Tucker Carlson bad take?
Back a couple of decades ago, when an occasional Democrat still told the truth, the Democrats were BOASTING about consolidating power via demographic change. It's not a fantasy. It's a deliberate push to change the demographics.
Tim adds:And the Republican Establishment wants it for similar reasons. It frees them from having to compete for voters with the Conservatives. https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2013/06/the_colonization_of_21st-century_america.html

Koenigsberg was in Prussia until 1945. Stalin grabbed it and renamed it Kaliningrad. Now it is growing away from Russia. It is time for Germany to ‘liberate’ the ethnic speaking Germans who live there? Should NATO back them in this enterprise or would that tar the members with Putin brush?

"Perhaps the most distinctive aspect of our age is the subsiding of all other concerns to the predominance of politics. And thus, we have succumbed to a Lyndon Johnson-like dependence upon the power of the state. The tragic result has been that all of life has been politicized, and if the new social engineers have their way, politics will increase in power - especially in its power to penetrate into our everyday lives and rule our destinies. For in fact politics has become, for many of the political elite, a kind of state religion.â€

More than ever this fits. Yeats was a prophet:
The Second Coming
Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
Surely some revelation is at hand;
Surely the Second Coming is at hand.
The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out
When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi
Troubles my sight: somewhere in sands of the desert
A shape with lion body and the head of a man,
A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun,
Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it
Reel shadows of the indignant desert birds.
The darkness drops again; but now I know
That twenty centuries of stony sleep
Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,
And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?
