Hunter Biden: “Everything Donald Trump is doing is him saying I own this house, I own this country, I own this government, I am the king, I get to make the rules, I get to make the decisions, I get to put my name on all the monuments, I get to drain the reflecting pool and paint it whatever color I want, I get to tear down the East Wing, I get to pave over the Rose Garden, I get to put gold appliqué all over the Oval Office and remove the names of all of the other people that came before me because I own it, it is my house, it belongs to me”
The United States accounted for 50% of the world's increase in emissions last year.
And it was driven by data centers.
While many assume China is driving the world's rising carbon emissions, the latest energy data reveals that the United States played a far larger role last year. According to the Energy Institute's 2026 Statistical Review of World Energy, North America accounted for 47% of the global increase in carbon emissions during 2025, with the U.S. responsible for almost all of that growth.
Despite a 28% surge in domestic solar capacity, clean energy was unable to keep up with skyrocketing power demand, causing U.S. coal-related emissions to jump by 13%.
This dual growth of fossil fuels and renewables demonstrates that green energy alone cannot curb emissions if overall electricity consumption rises faster than clean generation can scale.
The primary driver of this massive energy demand is the rapid expansion of the artificial intelligence industry. The report highlights that the U.S. is home to roughly 40% of global data center electricity consumption as tech companies race to construct the infrastructure necessary to power advanced AI models.
This massive digital expansion has created an environmental paradox for the tech sector: while major companies publicly pledge to reduce their carbon footprints, their insatiable demand for computing power is actively driving a national resurgence in fossil fuel reliance. Striking a balance between pioneering technological innovation and building a clean, capable electrical grid remains one of the most critical challenges of the modern era.

I miss when "The News" was just a guy in a suit telling you what happened, instead of a 24 hour panic machine designed to make you hate your neighbor so you don't notice your rent went up 30%.
“When the last tree is cut, the last fish is caught, and the last river is polluted; when to breathe the air is sickening, you will realize, too late, that wealth is not in bank accounts and that you can’t eat money.”
Listen to the haunting silence of an ecosystem gradually dying out over half a century.
This acoustic profile captures the progressive erasure of birdsong, serving as a stark and alarming warning of catastrophic biodiversity loss. Listen closely to realize exactly what we have lost.
I'm going to predict that when the damage assessment is complete, well into the future, Trump's greatest crime will prove to be espionage - AND - it will be the most catastrophic breach of national security in American history.
We will discover he passed secrets to Russia from day 1 because he was compromised; and did favors for the Saudis shortly after, purely for personal profit; and who knows what the hell else.
His many Useful Idiocies will boggle the mind. And his America First gaslight will be remembered as it should be remembered: "Trump Before America, facilitated by idiots who called themselves patriots."
His treachery - most done purely for power and profit, and some from pathology, revenge, and entitlement, will have massively impacted the globe, permanently shifted wealth, and cost many millions of lives.
I have to add that a good deal of it would not have happened but for our legacy media's consistent and widespread normalization of his disorders.

The "Middle Class" was a 50-year fluke designed to prevent a communist revolution during the Cold War. Now that the threat is gone, the elites are systematically dismantling it. You aren't "falling behind"; you’re being pushed back into the peasantry.
