I was told about Harris' anti-gun policy from Gun Owners of America, Inc, a credible source. Harris was also for more Red Flag confiscation laws, taking guns way without due process. VP Kamala Harris Becomes Biden’s ‘Gun Czar’ As War On Second Amendment Goes In Overdrive | GOA I don't believe in "gun violence". Guns are NOT violent.

Harris was a threat to my guns I was told. Trump is also protecting the southern border against those evil cartels. Those wetbacks have come into America to murder children. The VA has the MISSION Act so that Vets can choose private healthcare providers in the community to be paid for by the VA.

I am an American Veteran, however. I don't think the GOP will axe Veteran's benefits. I had to vote for Trump/GOP to protect my guns including my Colt Carbine 5.56 (AR-15 clone).

I wonder what energy think tank President Trump subscribes to. I have just looked at one webinar on YouTube by IEA. It seems like the economy is the main driver in world energy. Consumers will seek the least expensive alternatives for energy regardless how clean, dirty, safe or unsafe the various energy sources are. I drive a 1995 Toyota Corolla pure-combustible-fuels-powered automobile that is still highly reliable and achieves 30+ on the highway still. This car is running on 10% renewable energy right now: 10% grade Ethanol gasoline with ingredients from Iowa corn. You see pictures of yellow ears of corn right on local gas pumps here and the slogan: Clean energy for Iowa. I paid $2,300 for this car back in 2013. I am disabled and live in a semi-rural community with limited to no bus service. I am highly car dependent. There is no cheaper alternative to this automobile than I can think of. My senior apartment complex, built new in 2022, doesn't even make provisions for plugging in tenants' EV's here anyway. Our central heating system uses heat pump technology.

What I need to do is seek out the leading think tank authority on world energy. Do any people here place any credibility as to what think tanks say? Who is the number one think tank on energy today?

Gasoline prices were as low as $1.21/gallon where I was living under Trump's watch in 2020.

President Trump made me believe that "drill, baby, drill" means cheap energy bills and cheap gasoline for me, the American consumer. Who really benefits from "drill, baby, drill"? It's probably a lot cheaper to drill than frack.

There is a finite quantity of fossil fuels and materials to produce nuclear energy on Planet Earth. It's only a question of how long before the world takes renewable energy dead serious. It's not a question of if but of when. Should governments now mandate EV manufacture and use? Is EV manufacture and use now mandated in your nation? Should energy production, distribution and consumption be driven solely by markets? In the United States of America, the GOP policy on energy now is "drill, baby, drill". That is extract crude oil and natural gas on American soil to the fullest extent possible and even export these fossil fuels worldwide to strengthen the American economy. The GOP is not too keen now on continuing to push or advance renewable energy. I sit in my home right now in central Iowa. It is near zero outside this morning in late January of 2025 AD. I'm cozy in my bedroom right now with the electric space heater running. I'm totally grid dependent. I gather the electricity off my meter comes, at least mostly, from fossil fuel sources. I sit and wonder what folks in central Iowa will do 200, 500 or 1,000 years from now. Will they have renewable energy for home heat? Will it be wood burned in the hearth or wood stove? Will it be electricity from renewable sources?

I'm not fishing here, pal. I'm glad President Trump pardoned all those wrongly-jailed American Patriots who stormed the Capitol on Jan. 06, 2021 to protest the rigged election. The Gulf of America is fine by me.

They most certainly got my vote in November of 2024 as Donald and Mike Pence got my vote in 2020 and in 2016. It was nice to see fake senile Old Joe and that fake ex-VP dame get out of Washington on that helicopter and that big jet airplane. I agree with Donald Trump that Biden/Harris never had a legitimate administration in the first place because the 2020 election was tampered with. I saw Trump's inaugural speech. He said, DRILL, BABY, DRILL! He doesn't like that federal mandate to push electric automobiles onto the public also. The whole EV thing has a way to go before it blooms in full and is ripened to perfection. At age 60, I will probably be confined to fossil fuels for the remainder on my life at least in this reincarnation of myself. But after that is all said, I would still rather use fossil fuels from American soil than be forced to use them from abroad to keep the gasoline prices down as much as possible. I do realize that fossil fuels provided by planet Earth will not be continued to be consumed here forever. Nuke power is finite as well. There will come a future time, as long as mankind exists on Earth, that renewable energy sources will be truly taken dead serious on this planet.

5 million American popular votes is "thin "? What about Don's getting 312 electoral votes to the anti-gun dame's 226?

No, I'm asking you? ESKIMO doesn't bother me.

Well, racist lyrics don't bother you? What gives?

Can you imagine "Indigenous" (as opposed to Indian) motorcycles? How about making woke changes in The Christmas Song: "Chestnuts roasting on an open fire Jack Frost nipping at your TITS Yuletide carols being sung by a choir And folks dressed up like INUITS." Bob Dylan revised: Ev'rybody's building the big ships and the boats Some are building monuments Others are jotting down notes Ev'rybody's in despair Ev'ry girl and boy But when Quinn the INUIT gets here Ev'rybody's jump for joy Come all without, come all within You'll not see nothing like the mighty Quinn I like to do just like the rest, I like my sugar sweet But guarding fumes and making haste It ain't my cup of meat Ev'rybody's just standing 'round 'neath the trees Feeding pigeons on a limb But when Quinn the INUIT gets here Them pigeons'll go to him Come all without, come all within You'll not see nothing like the mighty Quinn A lamb bleat and a goat do, I can recite 'em all Just tell me where it hurts And I'll tell you who to call Nobody can get any sleep There's someone on ev'ryone's toes But when Quinn the INUIT gets here Ev'rybody's gonna doze Come all without, come all within You'll not see nothing like the mighty Quinn Come all without, come all within You'll not see nothing like the mighty Quinn

Eskimo Pie is no longer. The Cleveland Indians are no longer. The Washington Redskins are no longer. The cook on the Cream of Wheat box is no longer. Aunt Jemima is no longer. ESKIMO is a fun word. INDIAN is a fun word. The COOK made Cream of Wheat fun to eat. Ford got rid of the MERCURY trademark because it is a Roman god which might offend folks of other faiths. PONTIAC was Native American so General Motors axed it. PLYMOUTH is gone from Chrysler Motors because the name sounds too Anglo-Saxon. The OLD in OLDSMOBILE might have offended the anti-ageism crowd. Who knows? I hate it when there are those woke-sters who make every effort to rid America of her unique heritage and culture. My mother always bought Eskimo Pie. All that said, I will NEVER buy an Edy's Pie! Fat Boy and Klondike with the polar bear on the label are fine by me. PS - The Woke Police and others on the Left are out to take away anything that is FUN!
