There is a new awareness in North America. Reality and common sense are making a recovery, particularly since the inauguration of Donald J. Trump as the 47th President of the United States. In some sense, reality and common sense are just “coming out of the closet” because in the last couple of years certain industries have recognized that the “green new deal” was nothing more than a “pipe dream” and useless drain on the bottom line of their financial statements.
Financial institution recognized that investing and loaning to unproven theoretical technology companies that were experimenting with wind and solar energy was far too risky. Companies that initially supported the ideology of “net zero” have realized “net zero” is nothing more than smoke and mirrors and all the predicted goals were unachievable in the real world. These companies also discovered how incredibly expensive such efforts were and how this hurt their investors.
Ideology is the science of idiots.”~ John Adams
For more than a half-century the human-caused climate change hucksters have pushed a nearly religious and patently false ideology that human created CO-2 was the cause of global climate change. This whole ideology was based on computer modeling with bad data that had absolutely no scientific basis. It was and is still only a scam that has made a lot of people millionaires. All actual scientific climate facts demonstrate that atmospheric H2O and the sun control weather and climate. Total CO-2 composes a mere 0.0004% of the earth’s atmosphere and human caused CO-2 is only a small fraction of that one percent. Human caused CO-2 is the biggest farce ever perpetrated on the human race.

The whole justification for solar and wind energy was based on a false premise. Reality and common sense is dawning on the world and now accelerated by the bold moves of President Trump has made since noon on January 20, 2025. Many of the false narratives began during the Obama administration; however, the lies and misinformation was exacerbated and recognized because the blatant actions of the Biden administration. The American public can’t be fooled anymore.
President Trump is shining the spotlight on reality and common sense, hooray! He is going boldly where no President has gone in decades. President Eisenhower was bold in his dealings with illegal aliens and Trump will trump that (pun intended) by a significant margin. He is also going after the uniparty Deep State as no president has ever done. Sadly, this action should have been done decades ago.

"A fondness for power is implanted in most men, and it is natural to abuse it when acquired." ~ Alexander Hamilton
"One great error is that we suppose mankind more honest than they are." ~ Alexander Hamilton
"Truth will ultimately prevail where there is pains taken to bring it to light." ~ George Washington
The American Founding Fathers developed the United States Constitution based on their hope that common sense would always prevail. Sadly, that hasn’t happened, but President Trump has started down the road to recovery. Only time will tell if Americans will someday make common sense a permanent fixture in American government. Meanwhile, welcome back; reality and common sense!

After a 55 year career as a professional pilot in the military, in law enforcement, in the private sector, and in federal civil service, I am now retired.
In many of these positions I repeatedly took an oath to defend the United States Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic.
