This week: Marc Thielman, superintendent of Alsea School District (the only school to stay open all through the 2020 covid lockdowns), republican candidate for Oregon governor, and chief petitioner for real school choice in, joins us to talk about why it’s so needed in Oregon

School Choice? Real School Choice? In Oregon? Wait, What…?

Yes. It’s true. Oregon just might get school choice. Thanks to on again, off again, covid lockdowns that follow whatever pops into Governor Kate Brownshirt’s head.

“Trust the science” has been one of the most persistent lies over the last two years. If you dare question the science, you’re ridiculed and labeled ‘misinformation.’ That’s not how science works. That’s not even how trust works. It is the business of science to question science. Instead, you’re told to shut up and put your mask on. Because our science says so.
– Mark Anderson

This week, we talk with Marc Thielman, who is chief petitioner on the ballot initiative to bring real school choice to Oregon. This ballot initiative would allow parents to put their children in a school of their choice. Whether that’s another public school, a charter school, home school, or a “micro school” — a modern-day version of an old-time, one-room schoolhouse.

Why Real School Choice is So Needed

Just to give people an idea of why school choice is so important, the Corvallis School District thinks math is racist. Or that teaching math is racist. Or, perhaps what they really think is people of color aren’t smart enough to get math, so they need to hold White kids back? Really? So they are dumping all kids, regardless of skill or competency, into the same class. No more advanced classes. No more slower track classes. Everyone will be forced into the same mold. Because everyone must be the same. Or at least not allowed to be different. And certainly not excel. Because that would be racist. 

Imagine being a secondary school coordinator being this woke and not realizing how incredibly racist this sounds:

“I was able to walk into classes and identify whether they were a low or high track math class just based on the color of the students’ skin.”

So. What happens if a Black kid excels at math? Is it fair to hold them back and discourage them from excelling? Gosh. The problems you create when you see racism in everything. (Psst! That makes you the racist.)

How Real School Choice in Oregon would Work

Technically, parents have school choice. Sort of. The way it works now is the State “allows” parents to take their kids elsewhere to another school. But. They are punished financially by having to pay extra expenses (in addition to the taxes they already pay) for doing so. While their current school keeps all the money. That’s not real choice. (Although, it is a bit like the government saying, “Oh, we’re not forcing you to take the vaccine. But we’ll make sure you lose your job if you don’t.”) As it is, 100% of the public funds allotted to that child stays with the public school district the child is currently assigned to that child—regardless of where the child ends up. 

The current system means only rich people get to have school choice. They’re the only ones who can afford the extra expenses.

The way Real School Choice works is a portion of the public funding dollars already attached to a child goes with that child wherever the child goes. This truly opens the door for parents to put their child in the school that is the best fit for their child.

Tune in to hear the rest of the details and why Real School Choice is SO important for Oregon parents right now.

Yes, Virginia, Oregon is promoting Critical Race Theory. And that’s not even the worst of it.

Original Air Dates: December 11th & 12th, 2021 | Guest: State Senator Dennis Linthicum

This week: Senator Dennis Linthicum (OR SD-28) joins us for our year in review as we  look back at 2021 and take a look ahead at 2022.

A Year in Review: The Good, the Bad, and the Democrats

Last week we talked with Alek Skarlatos about the democrats’ gerrymandered congressional districts. This week we look a little deeper. Yes, the democrat gerrymandering is a problem but there is another monkey wrench they threw in the elections gears in 2021.

Actually, it’s more of a sledgehammer.

Be sure to check out the resources below for more info on China’s social credit score system democrats want to bring to the U.S. If you thought CRT was bad…

We also look ahead at 2022 and the challenges ahead. There are some great Republican candidates for governor. And, yes, there is a potential monkey wrench there too. Betsy Johnson. While she would be a far better democrat candidate than the ultra far left Tina Kotek or the so-called “moderate” carpetbagger Nicholas Kristoff, she’s running as an independent. Not a democrat.

That says a lot, doesn’t it?

Because she must not believe an independent-minded blue-dog democrat can win in Oregon. At least not get the win in the democrat primary. How will a third-party candidate impact the race? Split the votes and ensure a democrat win? Or split the democrats and let a Republican slip by?

We also look ahead to 2022. What are some of the key issues for Republicans to run on and attract both non-affiliated voters. And even democrats? Here’s a hint: we talked about one of them last week.

Show Summary: We all know the Reagan saying: “government isn’t the solution to the problem. Government is the problem.” But it’s worse than that. Because big government has learned there’s lots of money to be made for their political allies by causing the problems.

Original Air Dates: November 13th & 14th, 2021 | Guests: Dr. Lt. Col. Jim Huggins & Chuck Wiese

This week: it’s true: “Government isn’t the solution to the problem, government IS the problem.”

Except in modern-day governance it’s far more than incompetence or inefficiency. Because in modern governance, Big Government has learned there is an awful lot of money to be made for their political allies by creating problems.

Fixing Government: Dr. Lt. Col. Jim Huggins Runs for Governor

This week we welcome first-time guest, Dr. Lt. Col. Jim Huggins to the show. He is running for the Republican candidate for Oregon governor and he has some solutions to the problem of government.

Tune in to hear more about Jim’s unique and varied background. A start in the military, rising to Lt. Colonel in the US Air Force, a move to the private sector and business start ups, academics (not one but two doctorates), teaching, and a career in the entertainment industry by starting his own film production company.

Like many of us, Jim watched in shock and disgust as Left wing activists and mobs burned and looted Portland for 100+ nights while Left wing politicians not only did nothing but praised them. Even dropped charges.

Jim also shares with us what he sees as the major issues and how he would address them. But also, how would he, a non-politician, handle the political and bureaucratic minefield. The same minefield that tripped up President Trump who was constantly sabotaged and undermined by the establishment class.

Big Government Creating Problems

In this week’s show, you’ll hear how  government is quite literally creating problems out of thin air. Global Warming. This week, we also talk with Chuck Wiese about the never ending global warming scam, which will apparently only be solved by spending money.

As mentioned: NASA and NOAA temperature tampering documents can be found below, in the Links Section

But we also touch on the origins of the global warming hoax, which, if tried in any other industry sector, would have landed those who’d done it in jail. As Chuck reminds us, NASA and NOAA changed the temperature data to make the past look cooler than it was. By doing so, it artificially make the present (and future) look warmer than it really is.

We wanted to have Chuck on because a “super-important, this time the world really will end if we don’t do something” study showed Global Warming is going to lead to more forest fires.

Hey, Sherlock. If you really believe Global Warming is causing forests to be drier, you should have listened to us decades ago when we said you can’t let dead, dry wood pile up in the forests. And then be “surprised” when big fires happen.

Let it dry. Let it burn. And then let us have money. The democrats’ environmental playbook.

This Week: Arizona Audit & Stolen Elections

It’s all about the Arizona audit this week. But we take a different tack. We look at the stories behind the story of the Arizona audit.

Head to Fix2020First.com. Sign Mike Lindell’s petition to encourage the Supreme Court to accept the bill of complaints brought by patriotic states to save our country.

We talk first with Horace Cooper, co-chair of Project 21 and a constitutional law professor who gives us some historical context of the protections our Founders put in place for elections. And a look at other stolen elections. He also gives us insights into the remedies that exist and what should have happened with the contested 2020 election. And that new law Oregon passed to prevent the scrubbing of its voter rolls? Yeah. That’s going to have, shall we say, “unique” problems.

Then we talk with our go-to scientist, Chuck Wiese.  Chuck is trained in data analysis and he goes through the numbers that prove, conclusively, that there was fraud in the Arizona election. And what points to fraud in other states.

But first we take a look at the stories now being told by the Arizona audit observers. Who, until now, have been under a non-disclosure order to not discuss what they saw and heard. Tune in to hear these important observation that adds more context to the audit, above and beyond a bunch of numbers.

If you were on the fence before, this will convince you.

It’s time to do audits. In all 50 states.

But unless and until people start going to jail, none of this matters. Because they will just try it again and again and again. Which is why you need to support election audit efforts.

This Week: The Democrats’ Lies

It’s all about lies and betrayal this week. No, it’s not a soap opera. It’s politics.

As we asked last week, why is it wrong for you to lie to the government, but somehow perfectly okay when the government lies to you? You heard the web of lies the governments (federal and state) spun to take away your freedoms and push a fake “FDA approved” vaccine on people. Which is why Senator Dennis Linthicum announced he and Sen. Kim Thatcher have called for a grand jury investigation.

ICYMI, listen to last week’s show: Senator Dennis Linthicum discusses covid grand jury

Judas, Benedict Arnold, Tina Kotek

Okay, that’s a little hyperbole. After all, Judas and Benedict Arnold were, up until their betrayals, were trustworthy. Because it’s the nature of betrayal that only people you trust can betray you. Tina Kotek, however, is a known liar and anything she said, including a power-sharing deal, should have been viewed with suspicion.

And, surprise surprise, she reneged on the deal she struck with Republicans after getting what she wanted.

Democrat Betrayal: The Setup

In case you missed it, Republicans in Oregon’s House had successfully slowed down the democrats plan to pass thousands of bills. (Without reading them, of course.) So the Republicans, using a legislative tool open to any legislator, demanded each bill be read in its entirety on the House floor, before taking a vote. Since some of these bills are 100s of pages long, things slowed to snail’s pace.

Did you know? If you have Amazon Prime, you can now say, “Alexa, play the I Spy Radio Show on Amazon Music.”

So, Tina Kotek approached the Republicans and said she would give them a co-chair position on the Congressional Redistricting Committee. Which has the power to redraw the congressional districts. So, against advice from pretty much everyone, Republican “leadership” jumped on it. And gave up their power to slow bills. Or walk out on the gun bill. So Tina got what she wanted. And, as good betrayals go, for awhile it looked like she would keep her word.

Except, when things didn’t go her way (the democrats’ plan involved giving Portland control over at least 4 of Oregon’s 6 congressional districts), she yanked the deal. Let’s be clear. She yanked the deal AFTER getting her side of it, what she wanted.

Marc Thielman on Government (and Democrat) Lies

We welcome back Republican candidate for governor, Marc Thielman. We had Marc on a few weeks ago, ironically, to discuss lies from the government because Thielman is also the superintendent of Alsea School District and Gov. Kate Brown and the democrats relentlessly attacked him.

Why? Because Alsea School District was one of the few schools that stayed open during covid. And guess what—they didn’t have a single case of covid traced back to the school.

That meant his actions destroyed their narrative. Their web of lies. That you must cower in fear under your desks (due to fear of covid or the government?). Except they didn’t in Alsea and things were just fine. Brown’s and the democrats’ latest attacks were to call him out for his daring to suggest parents could ask for exemptions for their children on being forced to wear masks.

And there’s nothing big-government democrats hate more than being exposed for frauds. So we wanted to have him back.

Tune in this week to hear Marc Thielman’s responses to Tina Kotek’s betraying the Republicans, how the Republicans should have handled it, dealing with government lies—and what democrats fear most.

This show will infuriate you with the democrats’ lies. But you’ll also hear great things, and we think you’ll come away with new hope for Oregon’s future.

This Week: Call for Grand Jury Investigation

Last week, Senator Dennis Linthicum surprised us when he casually mentioned he was heading to a press conference to discuss his call for a grand jury into covid-19 malfeasance.

Wait. What now…?

So of course we needed to have him come right back to talk about this. Dr. Henry Ealy and Leah Wilson have both called for a grand jury investigation into public officials’ willful misconduct by manipulating — fear mongering — the data, which has driven the panic-demic.

How We Got Here

200 million Americans are vaccinated but daily cases are 300% higher than last year when there were zero people vaccinatedIt’s been just over 11 years since the democrats forced Obamacare on the nation. Or “Deemed it passed” as Nancy said. Which led to the democrats seeing massive losses in 2010. And losing both the house and the senate.

A couple years later, Oregon went through its own “Healthcare Transformation”, which put Oregon’s own version of Obamacare into place, in case Obamacare was ever tossed out.

So we thought it would be a good idea to look back at how we got here. How did we move from a free-market system for health care to one that now seems to think it can order you to inject yourself with experimental vaccines?

We talk with former county commissioner, Patti Milne, who was in the thick og the battle as democrats pushed through Oregon’s grand scheme. Except here’s the thing: they had willing (duped) allies in their republican counterparts.

Idaho Doctor Sees 20-Fold Increase of Cancers

  • Idaho: U.S. doctor reports a ’20 times increase’ of cancer in vaccinated patients: ‘Post-vaccine, what we are seeing is a drop in your killer T-cells, in your CD8 cells’ (WND, Sept 15, 2021)
    • Dr. Cole said that vaccines seem to be triggering serious autoimmune issues, and described the situation as a “reverse HIV.”
    • “Cole explained that two types of cells are required for adequate immune system function: ‘Helper T-cells,’ also called ‘CD4 cells,’ and ‘killer T-cells,’ often known as ‘CD8 cells,'” the report said. “According to Cole, in patients with HIV, there is a massive suppression of ‘helper T-cells’ which cause immune system functions to plummet, and leave the patient susceptible to a variety of illnesses. Similarly, Cole describes, ‘post-vaccine, what we are seeing is a drop in your killer T-cells, in your CD8 cells,'” Those, he explained, “keep all other viruses in check.”

The Drought of Action | Why Democrats won’t Fix Forests or Water

Show Summary: Democrats blame every environmental problem on mankind, because climate change. But if you really believe global warming is real, you should take more action, not less. It’s not that there aren’t solutions to wildfires and drought. It’s that the solutions don’t financially benefit democrat organizations. And why solve a problem if you can keep exploiting it? But they may have to change. Because the public have had enough of the democrats’ letting nature take its course.

Original Air Dates: Aug 7th & 8th, 2021 | Dr. Bob Zybach & Sen. Dennis Linthicum

This Week: Drought and Wildfires

Never let a good catastrophe go to waste. That’s been the democrat and socialist mantra for decades.

But, worse, they create the crisis and offer the solution. We’re certainly seeing that with covid, a disease that you’re virtually guaranteed to survive with a average 99.8% recovery rate. But why let math get in the way of politicized science.

And there’s no place they do this more than the environment.

Wildfires: It’s not Global Warming, Stupid

First up we talk with our go-to expert, Dr. Bob Zybach, about the so-called “historic” drought. Is it? And of course drought impacts forests, which the so-called environments refuse to manage. Why is that?

Because, of course, you can make money on a crisis. Nobody throws millions of dollars at a problem that is easily managed. But if you create fear, you create opportunity. The political and financial kind. And why solve a problem like drought if you can exploit a never-ending river of money out of it?

But are people starting to wake up to the scam? Not enough. Yet. But there are cracks in their armor. Years ago, they never would have said that the forests have been mismanaged for decades. Like Oregon’s governor did just a dew weeks ago on a national news program. Excuse me, governor? Which party has been managing Oregon’s forests for decades. Oh, yes. That would be the democrats.

If they’re admitting it, maybe, just maybe, we can start solving the problems. But it’ll cost ya. If democrats are allowed to stay in power.

The Real Drought: Taking Action on Fixable Problems

Keep in mind, drought has been part of mankind’s existence since mankind existed. It’s not that there aren’t solutions. It’s that solving a problem means you can’t exploit it. And that’s what drives democrats right now. A crisis you create and just happen to have organizations that meets the needs of that crisis — without actually solving the crisis — is a situation that you can exploit. For literally billions.

We talk with Oregon Senator Dennis Linthicum from the Klamath Falls area — the focal point of environmental exploitation for decades.

It’s not that there isn’t water, it’s that the water is allowed to flow into the ocean. Without benefiting man nor fish. Think about it. If you let water go down stream, how does that benefit the fish you’re trying to save.

But is there something sinister afoot?

Environmentalists have tried for years to drive farmers off their land. Land that without water is both useless and worthless. And if farmers can’t make it, they could be forced to sell their land for pennies on the dollar.

And, abracadabra, environmentalists who buy that land could turn around and sell it $100 acres for $10,000 per acre mitigation credits. Some areas of the country would buy them for $50,000 an acre. And here you thought Lefties were against profits.

They are. When someone else makes it.

Exposing Election Fraud; Help for Wildfire Victims

Exposing Election Fraud; Help for Wildfire Victims

Show Summary: You might think election fraud and wildfires have nothing in common. Except of course election fraud determines who gets into office. And those who are elected then set policies like let-it-burn forest management. This week we look at the audits uncovering election fraud in Arizona, which are spreading like wildfire to other states. And if they uncover election fraud, what then?

Original Air Dates: July 31st & Aug 1st, 2021 | Horace Cooper & Valerie Odai

This Week: Election Fraud & Relief Angels

When there are threats that surround you, and you can’t figure things out on your own, the first reaction is usually to find the experts who know how to deal with the problems. This week’s show we turn to two experts to help us understand the magnitude of what’s happening.

We start with election fraud. Because the far-left wants you to believe that by questioning results you are somehow the one who wants to destroy elections. Which is a form of intimidation by shutting down the discussion rather than examining the problem. But Arizona has stayed strong, finishing up their ballot audit and are now preparing the final report. So far, the preliminary reports have been damning.

See the election fraud list of what’s been uncovered so far in Maricopa

Even still there are those, like Biden’s administration, that will do what they can to stop the process. So we turn to a constitutional expert to help us plow through the smoke and mirrors the far-left has been instrumental in placing before us.

Election Fraud with Horace Cooper

First up, and new to our show, Horace Cooper who is a senior fellow with the National Center for Public Policy Research, Co-Chairman of the Project 21 National Advisory Board, and a legal commentator. Mr. Cooper taught constitutional law at George Mason University and has been observing elections and their results—and the fraud involved—for years. He discusses past elections and crimes by election officials, along with the current election audits. We also tackle the misconceptions that the far-left is desperately spinning to distract.

And what if there is evidence of actual fraud here? What then?

Help for Oregon Wildfire Victims: Relief Angels with Valerie Odai

Then our next guest is also a newcomer to I Spy, Executive Director, Valerie Odai, of Relief Angles at www.relief-angels.org. Right now, Oregon has the largest forest fire in the nation, the Bootleg fire in southern Oregon, which is approaching half a million acres. While the fire fighters are making headway, the relief efforts in these remote areas are only just beginning.

We asked Ms. Odai to come on, to give us updates on the relief efforts that are ongoing and what is needed for the families impacted by this devasting fire. But she gives us much more by giving us a glimpse into the efforts that volunteers are doing to keep necessary goods going to the families in need and what other regions that they are involved in. Listen to hear about the courageous work so many volunteers are willing to do and find out how to help them achieve their goal of making people less fearful and rebuild their lives.

We hope you’ll join in. With all the hurt and damage, what a great thing to know that even a little help is huge when you’ve lost everything.

Be sure to visit Relief Angels! Every bit helps. Little bits add up to big bits.

The list of voter/election fraud in Maricopa County, Arizona

In a state Biden “won” by 10,457 votes, here’s the findings so far:

  • 3,981 people were allowed to vote despite registering after the Oct 15 deadline
  • 11,326 people in the county who voted in the November 3 election were NOT on the voter rolls on November 7, but were added to the voter rolls by December 4. In other words, they registered AFTER election day but still had their votes counted.
  • Roughly 18,000 voted but were removed from voter rolls after the election
  • 74,243 mail-in ballots were counted in Maricopa even though there is no evidence of the ballots ever being sent to the “voters” in the first place
  • Thin ballot paper used for approximately 168,000 ballots led to markers “bleeding through” the paper, damaging ballots, 
  • Most Republicans vote on election day. Prior to election day, a Maricopa County official had told staff to remind people to use a ballpoint pen. But ON elections day, that same official ordered staff to hand out Sharpie markers to same-day voters even though she knew about concerns with the Sharpies
  • Signature verification disappeared. Originally they used a 20-point verification for signatures, then 10, then five. And then eventually, staff were told to not verify them at all. (Maricopa County is withholding mail-in ballot images that can be used as evidence.)
  • Thousands of ballots had no serial number or was so light as to be unreadable and unverifiable
  • failure of Maricopa to turn over the 40% machines, the passwords that Dominion still refuses to turn over, & tens of thousands of unauthorized queries demonstrating how insecure the election was
  • The election voter data base was breached. There were over 37,000 anonymous administrative queries

    • “Project 21 Black leadership recommends voter identification and proof of citizenship. It recommends the purging of voter rolls. Co-Chairman of Project 21 Horace Cooper states that black voters are drowned out by the voting of illegal aliens, convicts, and noncitizens.”
  • Voter Fraud Is Major Election Threat Based on Recent Cases, Analyst Says (CNS News, Feb 1 2012)
    • The legal analyst cited “ghost voting” as the biggest problem. The term “ghost voter” is used to describe dead people that remain on the voter rolls.
    • “If even 1 percent of the vote is fraudulent, he says or implies that’s something we shouldn’t be concerned about,” Cooper said. “We ought to be outraged about it. …What ghost voting is successfully able to do is change what the actual outcome was going to be, to a different outcome.”
    • In the Troy, N.Y., case, … City Councilmen John Brown and Anthony DeFiglio [plead guilty.] … The probe was into whether they forged signatures on applications for absentee ballots and on actual ballots in the 2009 primary race … The Albany Times-Union newspaper reported that most of the fraudulent names were of residents of public housing authority apartments. The paper quoted DeFiglio calling it a “normal political tactic.”
      • In other words, they routinely cheated. Boys will be boys — politicians will be politicians
    • THIS: “What we see in Colorado and in this West Virginia plea agreement is that it’s pretty sinister and there are high-level people that can participate and manipulate the process and they can get away with it,”Cooper said.

The Fight for 2022 is Right Now | Burgess Owens & Alek Skarlatos

Show Summary: This week, it’s a look ahead at 2022 with two fighters willing to stand up against a massive expansion of government — over $10 trillion spending commitments in six months time if Congressional democrats get everything they want. And if they lose in 2022, they don’t care because so much of those trillions goes to democrat support groups. How long could you make $4 trillion last? Congressman Burgess Owens on spending, govt expansion, and Critical Race Theory, plus Oregon’s Alek Skarlatos, once more into the fray, running in Oregon’s 4th.

DEMOCRATS COMMITTING SUICIDE – AND WHY THEY DON’T CARE

This week: You’ve probably heard one of our favorite political sayings, which was first said by Plato some four centuries before the birth of Christ: “One of the penalties for refusing to participate in politics is that you end up being governed by your inferiors.” 

The Fight for 2022 is Now

Likewise, ignoring politics until two months before an election, leads to you paying for what your inferiors have been doing for the last 22 months. Yes, 2022 is coming up fast. And there’s a lot of hope, and reason to believe, that 2022 will see the democrats lose. Why? Because democrats are committing suicide in 2021. Doing what they always do when they get power: spend like there’s no tomorrow. 

Fighting Big Government: Burgess Owens

Burgess Owens, a long-time guest on I Spy Radio, was elected to Congress in 2020 — taking back the seat in Utah’s 4th Congressional district that “conservative” turned anti-Trump Mia Love lost. Burgess is definitely a Trump supporter and a genuine conservative, which is why we look forward to a long career for him.

He is also an anti Big Government conservative. And he’s watching as the democrats ram massive spending bills through, a lot of which will go fund Leftist organizations. Which is standard operating procedure for the Left. Steal public money and give it to themselves or their organizations. But I digress.

Burgess Owens: Huge Critic of Critical Race Theory

Congressman Owens has great hope in what he’s seeing happening in Congress these days. Many of his democrat colleagues are terrified of the swing that will happen during midterms this year that will take the gavel out of Nancy’s hands. That fear is slowing down some of the House bills just because there are those who are politically far left but still want to appear more moderate.

But even those policies, like Critical Race Theory, won’t be going away as the far-left are working overtime to forcefully inject it into local school districts. Congressman Owens has spoken at length of why it’s wrong, and continues that conversation on I Spy. He talks about his childhood and what it was like to be around those who believed then in the principles of CRT. And the pushback is large within the black community. Tune in to hear Burgess’s thoughts on why this Marxist ideology needs to be, like slavery, abolished.

Alek Skarlatos: Fighting for Oregon’s 4th in 2022

To many, including everyone here at I Spy Radio, it was a real shock that Alek Skarlatos did not win Oregon’s 4th Congressional district in 2020. Peter DeFazio, is an unspectacular congressman. And boring. While Alek is a genuine American hero who actually saved lives when he and his friends stopped a terrorist on a Paris-bound train.

Perhaps it had to do with all that public money democrats spend on themselves and their friends…?

Did you know? Small-dollar donors drive big dollar donors? The million-dollar donors wait to see where you put your money so they know where to put theirs. Donate to Alek so the big money will get behind him.

Alek has been watching the problems Oregonians are faced with — shut down orders and increased taxes as business owners have a difficult time finding new employees. Alek discusses DeFazio’s approach and how it misses what’s needed for Oregonians. Don’t miss Alek’s return to politics and how he thinks this time, election outcomes could be much different.

2022 is not too far away.

House Passes $715 Billion Infrastructure Bill (NYT, July 1, 2021)

Critical Race Theory

Green Energy

The only thing "green" about green energy is the color of the toxic lakes in China
The only thing “green” about green energy is the color of the toxic lakes in China

The truth about “green” windmills:

  • Every 1 ton of mined, refined, and processed rare earth minerals produces 2,000 tons of toxic waste (The UK Guardian, March 20, 2014)
  • Each industrial windmill uses about 2.5 tons or rare earth minerals (Lynas Rare Earths), therefore generating 5,000 tons of toxic waste before it goes online and deemed “green”
  • The wind industry generates more toxic waste than the nuclear industry, despite only generating about 4% of US energy, vs ~20% that nuclear does (Institute for Energy Research, Oct 2013)
  • The only thing truly “green” about “green energy” is the color of the toxic lakes in China (Wind Turbine Syndrome, 2011)

This toxic lake poisons Chinese farmers, their children and their land. It is what’s left behind after making the magnets for [the world’s] latest wind turbines, and is merely one of a multitude of environmental sins committed in the name of our new green Jerusalem

Toxic lake, environmental legacy of world’s smart phones and gadgets (Mind Food, April 7, 2015)
