Your Fault: Hotcoldwetdry Is Damaging Your Skin

The cult is really looking for things to fearmonger over (the question mark in the headline is not mine. Not sure why it is there)

How Climate Change Is Quietly Damaging Your Skin?

When we think about climate change, images of melting ice caps, rising sea levels, and extreme weather often come to mind. But there’s a more personal—and often overlooked—dimension to this global issue: your skin. Yes, the largest organ of your body is silently bearing the brunt of a changing climate. From increased UV radiation to humidity fluctuations, climate change is influencing skin health in subtle but significant ways.

Global temperatures have steadily climbed over the past century, and with them, heat-related skin issues are on the rise. Prolonged exposure to higher temperatures can exacerbate conditions like:

  • Heat rashes and hives: Sweat ducts can become blocked, leading to irritation and inflammation.
  • Rosacea and eczema: These conditions are often aggravated by environmental stressors like heat and pollution.
  • Acne flare-ups: Increased sweating can clog pores and worsen breakouts, especially in humid climates.

Yes, you’re sweating because of 1.7F increase in global temperatures since 1850. You can really notice.

As the ozone layer thins, more ultraviolet (UV) rays are reaching the Earth’s surface. This intensification of UV exposure accelerates:

  • Skin aging: UV radiation breaks down collagen, leading to premature wrinkles, sunspots, and loss of elasticity.
  • Skin cancer: Higher UV exposure increases the risk of all forms of skin cancer, including melanoma, one of the deadliest types.
  • Photosensitivity: Certain medications and skincare products may make the skin more sensitive to sunlight, compounding the risks.

Other People driving fossil fueled vehicles is really messing you up, right? Not you, of course. Your use of autos is just fine. Anyhow, more blamestorming, ending with

What You Can Do: Protecting Your Skin in a Changing Climate

Despite the looming threats, you’re not powerless. Here’s how to keep your skin resilient:

  • Use broad-spectrum SPF every day, even when it’s cloudy. Reapply every 2 hours if you’re outside.
  • Cleanse thoroughly to remove pollutants and dirt, especially if you live in an urban area.
  • Hydrate and moisturize to maintain a strong skin barrier—look for products with ceramides, hyaluronic acid, and niacinamide.
  • Wear protective clothing like wide-brimmed hats and UV-blocking sunglasses.
  • Invest in air purifiers if you’re in a high-pollution area or wildfire zone.
  • Consult a dermatologist if you notice unusual changes in your skin or if you suffer from chronic skin issues.

These are literally things you should do anyhow, and have nothing to do with ‘climate change’….oh, right, the cult thinks everything is part of their cult.

Surprise: Hamas Declares Victory After UK, Canada, Australia Recognize Palestinian State

It wasn’t like tons of people stated that recognizing the Palestinian state would be a victory for the terrorists who started this on October 7th, right?

Hamas declares ‘victory’ after UK recognition of Palestine

Hamas has declared victory for “the justice of our cause” after Sir Keir Starmer announced Britain would recognise Palestinian statehood.
In a video message on Sunday, Sir Keir insisted the move, one of the most significant shifts in British foreign policy in decades, was “not a reward for Hamas”.

But Mahmoud Mardaw, a senior Hamas official, claimed it represented “a victory for Palestinian rights and the justice of our cause” and would “send a clear message” to Israel.

On Sunday night, US president Donald Trump said the decision was “rewarding Hamas”. Speaking to reporters on Air Force One, he added: “I don’t think they should be rewarded. I am not in that camp, to be honest.”

Canada and Australia, which have been overrun with Islamist just like the UK, also recognized Palestinian statehood

“With the actions of Hamas, the Israeli government escalating the conflict and settlement building being accelerated in the West Bank, the hope of a two-state solution is fading, but we cannot let that light go out,” Starmer said.

Alongside similar announcements of recognition from Canada and Australia, he described Hamas as a “brutal terror organisation”.

He said: “We are clear this solution is not a reward for Hamas, because it means Hamas can have no future, no role in government, no role in security.”

The group which is a designated terrorist organization by the UK government disagrees.

Jewish organisations, including the Board of Deputies of British Jews, condemned the decision, arguing there will be “deep dismay at the Prime Minister’s announcement across the Jewish community”, while the Campaign Against Antisemitism described the decision as “Sir Keir Starmer’s Neville Chamberlain moment”.

Meanwhile, the families of hostages held by Hamas said the UK and its allies were responsible for a “catastrophic failure of political, moral and diplomatic leadership” and said any recognition of Palestine must be contingent on the release of their relatives.

Britain is lost.

Update: LOL

 

A Dozen SCNY Officials Arrested By ICE

Maybe it’s time to start throwing some real federal charges at these unhinged Sanctuary City New York wackos interfering with federal agents?

More than a dozen city officials arrested while protesting immigration crackdown

More than a dozen city officials and lawmakers, and dozens of other demonstrators, were arrested Thursday both inside and outside 26 Federal Plaza while protesting conditions at the building and President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown in the city.

Public Advocate Jumaane Williams, state Sen. Julia Salazar, Assemblymember Phara Souffrant Forrest and members of the City Council were among those detained at the protest. (snip)

Others, including City Comptroller Brad Lander, were taken from the 10th floor of the plaza after trying to catch a glimpse of the conditions there.

All the officials have now been released. Lander and 10 others were given summonses for blocking the lobby and the foyer upstairs. They have a court date in November.

Defending illegal aliens, many of whom are serious criminals, seems like the hill they want to die on

(Newsweek) Thursday was Lander’s second time being detained at the facility, following an arrest in June.

DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin told Newsweek in a statement, in part, “Brad Lander’s obsession with attacking the brave men and women of law enforcement, physically and rhetorically, must stop NOW. The men and women of ICE put their lives on the line every day to arrest violent criminal illegal aliens to protect and defend the lives of American citizens. This type of rhetoric is contributing to the 1000% surge in assaults of ICE officers through this repeated vilification and demonization of ICE.”

Have they passed the point of not protesting peaceably? Sooner or later these protests are going to lead to serious violence, because the Democrat politicians and high end activists are whipping everyone up into a frenzy.

LOL: Newsom Signs Legislation Blocking ICE From Wearing Masks

I’m looking forward to any state, county, or local law enforcement in the People’s Republik Of California to try and arrest any federal law enforcement agent

Newsom signs legislation banning ICE agents from wearing masks in California

California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) on Saturday signed a first of its kind bill banning Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents from wearing masks while conducting operations in the state of California.

Newsom said ICE agents would no longer be “hidden from accountability” arguing masks prevent “transparency” for citizens and hinder “oversight.”

“That’s Trump’s America but that’s not the America we’ve grown up in. And so we are pushing back,” the governor said during remarks at a local high school.

Newsom said many residents are living in fear as the Trump administration cracks down on communities of illegal immigrants. Twenty-seven percent of Californians are foreign-born.

I’m all for federalism and State’s Rights, but, Los Federales have primacy when it comes to immigration, and federal law enforcement outranks state, county, and local when it comes to federal matters. Illegal immigration is a federal matter. I remember when Gavin banned all San Francisco (he was mayor at the time) city employee travel to Arizona in 2010 over the “show your papers” law. Not sure why so many employees were traveling to Arizona on the taxxpayer dime, but, Dems said SB1070 usurped federal power.

Newsom’s office also took aim at Noem in its announcing of the legislation, which drew a backlash from the administration.

“Kristi Noem is going to have a bad day today,” Newsom’s press office tweeted. “You’re welcome, America.”

“This reads like a threat. This is ugly, @GavinNewsom,” Department of Homeland Security (DHS) spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin tweeted in response.

See, Democrats in the PRC want to ban law enforcement from protecting their identities, thereby allowing the unhinged nuts in the Democrat party to retaliate against them and their families. Violently. But, the PRC general assembly won’t restrict criminals from wearing masks.

(AP) Bill Essayli, acting U.S. attorney for Southern California, said on the social platform X that the state does not have jurisdiction over the federal government and he has told agencies the mask ban has no effect on their operations. “Our agents will continue to protect their identities,” he said.

Good luck with any attempted arrests of ICE and others, guys. You’ll be going to federal prison.

The new law prohibits neck gaiters, ski masks and other facial coverings for local and federal officers, including immigration enforcement agents, while they conduct official business. It makes exceptions for undercover agents, medical masks such as N95 respirators or tactical gear, and it does not apply to state police.

It’s all performative theater.

Youts Sue Federal Government Over Hotcoldwetdry

Obviously, it’s all about Trump in this astroturfed suit, which, sad to say, I missed earlier in the year

The Youth Activists Suing Trump Are Fighting Climate Change and Authoritarianism

Does the United States Constitution guard against executive abuses of power that deprive children and youth of their fundamental rights to life and liberty?

That was the fundamental question Julia Olson, an attorney and the founder of Our Children’s Trust, posed to Judge Dana Christensen this week during a two-day hearing in a federal courthouse in Missoula, Montana.

The case, Lighthiser v. Trump, began in May when 22 young climate activists, aged 7 to 25, filed a lawsuit in the District of Montana asking the court to declare three Trump administration executive orders unconstitutional and prevent their implementation. The plaintiffs say the orders show the Trump administration’s intention to increase fossil fuel development, block renewable energy, and terminate congressionally mandated climate change science and research—all “under the false claim of an energy emergency, while the true emergency is that our fossil fuel-based energy system is polluting the air, water, lands, and climate on which Plaintiffs’ lives, liberties, and personal security depend.”

In some ways, Lighthiser v. Trump is the logical next step for OCT and the U.S. climate litigation movement, which aims to compel the government to take meaningful action to address the climate crisis—or prohibit it from making the crisis worse—through the judiciary. The lawsuit follows two of OCT’s recent wins, Held v. Montana and Navahine v. Hawaii Department of Transportation, and “further builds American constitutional jurisprudence on fossil fuel activities infringing the fundamental rights of youth,” according to the nonprofit law firm.

Sadly, the government lawyers never asked “have you youts given up your own use of fossil fuels and made your lives carbon neutral?” But, in fact, the Chief Executive does have the authority to put out those EOs, in the same way Biden apparently had authority to go the other way.

In other ways, Lighthiser is unlike anything that has come before. For one, this week’s hearing marked the first time a U.S. federal court heard live testimony in a constitutional climate change case. And, as Mat dos Santos, one of the OCT attorneys representing the plaintiffs, told me, “Lighthiser goes beyond the traditional climate cases that Our Children’s Trust is famous for, because it’s really a case about our democracy and whether this president has the power to act on his own initiative without any regard for how that power was supposed to be divided up amongst the other branches of government.”

Yeah, and it is all about force every American to comply with the insane, doomsday beliefs of the cult, while very few actually practice what they preach. They couldn’t really convince people to act in practice via 35 years of scaremongering. They couldn’t get as much legislation passed as they wanted. So, now they sue. If this makes it to the Supreme Court the cult will lose.

Who’s Up For $100K A Year H1-B Visas

Good idea? Bad idea? Good for some bad for others?

Trump imposes $100K fee on H-1B visas in new immigration action

President Donald Trump signed an executive action on Friday to impose a $100,000 application fee for H-1B visas — in an effort to curb what his administration says is overuse of the program.

“We need great workers, and this pretty much ensures that that’s what’s going to happen,” Trump said from the Oval Office, where officials detailed how the measure would incentivize companies to employ American workers while still providing a pathway to hire highly skilled foreign workers in specialized fields.

The proclamation will restrict entry under the program unless accompanied by the payment.

Now, this is not something that the visa holders pay, companies pay. There is also some confusion as to whether this is per employee or for a multitude. What it is meant to do is have American companies hire Americans, rather than bring them in. The question now is “does the Executive Branch have this authority?” Quite frankly, I’d rather see a lower fee, like, say, $20K per visa holder, and restrict the visas to 3 years with no renewals. Because now they get renewed over and over again, and the holders bring their families, their parents, their cousins.

The moves mark the latest in a series of efforts from the administration to crack down on immigration and place sharp new limits on the types of foreigners allowed into the country. They threaten to significantly impact industries that depend heavily on H-1B workers.

Maybe they should be focusing on hiring Americans.

More than 400 arrests made so far in Chicago area enforcement operation, top ICE official says

Immigration enforcement officials have arrested more than 400 people as part of an operation in the Chicago area that launched a little less than two weeks ago, a top Immigration and Customs Enforcement official said Friday.

Marcos Charles, the acting head of ICE’s Enforcement and Removal Operations, gave the figures during an interview with The Associated Press. The figure, which has not been widely reported, offers an early gauge of what is shaping up as a major enforcement effort that comes after similar operations were launched in Los Angeles and Washington, D.C.

For all the caterwauling, protesting, agitating, none of it mattered in Sanctuary City Chicago. ICE knows who they are and where they are.

Hageman, Tiffany Introduce Bill To Protect US From Climate (scam) Reparations

We know which way the Democrats will vote on this: will all the Republicans in Congress vote for it, or, will a few get squishy?

Congresswoman Hageman Introduces Legislation to Protect the American Taxpayer from Climate Change Reparations

Today, Congresswoman Harriet Hageman (WY-AL), alongside Congressman Tom Tiffany (WI-07), introduced legislation protecting the American taxpayer from attempts by international courts to impose climate change reparations on the U.S.

In July, the International Court of Justice (ICJ), one of the six principal organs of the United Nations (UN), issued an advisory opinion contending that international climate change treaties are binding on UN member states, and that breaching these agreements is an “international wrongful act.” According to the ICJ, countries that produce or consume fossil fuels could be subject to orders demanding they cease all “climate change” activities and pay full reparations to harmed nations.

Reps. Hageman and Tiffany’s bill would block the use of federal funds to pay a demand for reparations issued by any international bodies or courts for alleged violations of international law.

“The UN’s war on affordable and reliable energy is well known. This is just another effort to push forward with radical policies that have no basis in fact or science. Pursuant to the ICJ theory, every single country in the world would be subject to paying reparations, as every single country consumes fossil fuels. Yet, we know that such an outcome isn’t the UN’s intent. This is just another effort to force America to prop up the economies of failed states and impoverished nations. American citizens are not going to be forced to pay reparations based on vague, speculative claims about so-called climate damage,” said Rep. Hageman. “This bill protects both U.S. sovereignty and Congress’s constitutional authority. It guards against financial risks born of international lawsuits or opinions built on unproven assumptions.”

If other nations want to pay, have at it. It’s very sketchy as to if the US is even subject to the ruling by the ICJ, which is also non binding because it was just an advisory opinion. It makes the lawyers happy, though.

But, what if a Democrat wins in 2028? That wacko could start directing US money to the scam. This law could stop that.

National Academies Goes Full Cult In Supporting Climate Doom

If they were still respectable they would note the effect on the climate from things like land use, urban heat island effect, natural processes, and, oh yeah, the big ball of nuclear fire at the center of the solar system. But, no, they cannot even use the proper term which would be anthropogenic global warming. ‘Climate change’ replaced AGW in order to Blamestorm pretty much everything, including snow and cold weather

Climate change ‘beyond scientific dispute,’ National Academies report says

One of the United States’ most respected scientific bodies rejected claims from Trump administration officials that rising temperatures posed little danger, saying on Wednesday the scientific evidence of climate change was “beyond scientific dispute” and that impacts on the nation are worsening.

The conclusion from the the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine differs starkly from a draft report issued by the Energy Department in July, in which a panel of scientists known for their contrarian views argued that the risks of climate change have been overblown.

The nonprofit National Academies advise the government on scientific issues.

In sharp contrast to the Trump administration’s report, NASEM’s 135-page review of climate science says that our understanding of climate science has only improved since EPA in 2009 formally declared greenhouse gases a threat to human health and welfare.

That includes long-term observations that “confirm unequivocally” that human emissions are warming the planet, that climate change is already harming the health and welfare of U.S. citizens and that the severity of climate change increases “with every ton of greenhouse gases emitted.”

Reads more like blathering from a doomsday cult with skin in the game to keep the money train rolling

“Much of the understanding of climate change that was uncertain or tentative in 2009 is now resolved and new threats have been identified,” the report concluded. “These new threats and the areas of remaining uncertainty are under intensive investigation by the scientific community. The United States faces a future in which climate-induced harm continues to worsen and today’s extremes become tomorrow’s norms.”

I have a recommendation: everyone at the National Academies should immediately give up their own use of fossil fuels and make their lives carbon neutral. No one is allowed to travel to Brazil for COP30. The Academies should forgo all use of fossil fuels, AC, heating, and more at it’s offices, ban meat. And tell everyone who believes this report to do the same.

Conservatives Pounce: Jimmy Kimmel’s Show Suspended Indefinably Life Comes At You Pretty Fast

Let’s look at what Kimmel said during his monologue during what is supposed to be a late night mindless comedy/entertainment show

Hilarious stuff, eh? He realized he went too far and tried to apologize (in other words, the suits at ABC made him), but, yeah, he got yanked. Here is the hottest of hottakes I’ve found

ABC Pulls Jimmy Kimmel Live! From the Air ‘Indefinitely’

Conservative cancel culture has come for Jimmy Kimmel: Walt Disney–owned ABC has announced it’s pulling new episodes of Jimmy Kimmel Live! “indefinitely” following right-wing outrage over comments he made on his September 15 show about the reaction to the killing of right-wing podcaster and provocateur Charlie Kirk. Disney’s decision follows a move by one of its major affiliate groups, Nexstar, to preempt the show in response.

While Nexstar didn’t say exactly what Kimmel had said that it objected to, and ABC offered no further explanation of its move, FCC chairman Brendan Carr earlier on Wednesday denounced this part of the host’s Monday monologue, per Deadline: “We had some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and with everything they can to score political points from it.” Around 6 p.m. ET Wednesday, Nexstar issued this statement: “Nexstar strongly objects to recent comments made by Mr. Kimmel concerning the killing of Charlie Kirk and will replace the show with other programming in its ABC-affiliated markets.” When Vulture asked ABC for comment, a network rep replied, “Jimmy Kimmel Live! will be preempted indefinitely.”

See, it’s not the problem that Kimmel made reprehensible remarks on his low rated show, no, it’s that Conservatives noticed it.

Evil Blogger Lady says Jimmy Kimmel is a dirty liar and fraudster. And laughs that he is suspended.

And here’s the thing: Kimmel’s show has a lot lower ratings than Colbert, who had about 2.4 million a night. Kimmel was getting around 1.77 million (Carson got around 9-11 million a night.) I wonder if we are going to soon hear about how much Kimmel’s show costs, and that the plug is being pulled.
