French President Emmanuel Macron offered Americans a “second homeland” in France to help “make our planet great again,” a clear jab against President Trump after he announced that his administration will reject the Paris climate agreement.

There ya go, little Chickies, Au Revoir.

I mean...as IOTW says, "Who wouldn’t love to hang out in a country that gets terrorized every other week and the only thing its leader can say is, *shrug* “Get used t0 it!”

Trump Issues Another Declaration Of Independence

$1:

Mark this day as historic. June 1, 2017: the day that President Donald Trump extricated the United States from the Paris climate accord.

It is a day of jubilee. It is a day of freedom. It is something akin to another declaration of independence — independence not from an empire but from a global welfare establishment that has been feeding off the United States since the Second World War.

If you only voted for Donald Trump because he promised to end the climate change swindle then the president has kept his promise to you. But he’s also kept his promise to all Americans not just to put America first but to stop selling America out to the United Nations and the climate change lobby that is both igniting the fears of people around the world and making a fortune from those fears.

When global warming didn’t seem to ring true anymore, the enviro-fascists started calling it climate change because that can mean just about anything. The weather can be hot, cold, rainy, arid or something in between and you can attribute it all to climate change.

Not only that: governments can tax you to death in the endless pursuit of lowering a country’s carbon footprint. The environmentalists can kill jobs and have us all living in caves without the benefit of cars as we do our bit to save the environment.

And it’s all nonsense. While Americans and other western nations suffer in silence, China and India continue an industrial expansion that has little concern for the size of carbon footprints.

Well on Thursday, Trump said no. He said enough. He said Americans wouldn’t be played for suckers anymore by the environmental hucksters at the UN.

There will be so very disappointed and sorrowful liberals on this day. For them, the environment was not just a political issue, not just a policy plank, not even just a cause; it was a religion. They worship the planet and they pay obeisance to the earth god through their various displays of environmental devotion — which largely translate into taxes and levies that are remarkably similar to what the indulgences that could be purchased for the remission of sins in the pre-Reformation Catholic Church. Liberals believe in suffering for they planet; they believe in following the globalist piper.



Trump is taking a courageous position with his exit. The mainstream, left-wing media that already aspires to see his impeachment if not his literal demise, has been quick to note that Trumk is out of step with the rest of the world, a climate change denier, abdicating America’s leadership role in the world. But let’s get real, does anybody really believe that America was leading the world on climate change? Do you really want America to lead the world on such an issue? Wouldn’t you rather have America leading the world on economic expansion, political liberty and freedom of thought and speech?

Did you get the crass remark from Fox News’ afternoon liberal talking head Shep Smith, that “those who know climate change is real and that it is caused by humans” won’t like today’s decision. What an utterly totalitarian statement to make and how utterly banal. But this is precisely how the liberals have framed this debate: by saying there is no debate; that the issue is settled and beyond dispute.

This decision will have far-reaching consequences. It not only means the U.S. has finally said enough, but Trump’s leadership might actually force some of the other pusillanimous leaders of the world to question their sycophantic devotion to the environmental tryranny. Perhaps some of these jokers will stop talking about this outrageously silly “war on climate change” and wake up to the real war on terrorism.

Is it too much to hope for? Perhaps not. Many of us doubted that Trump would come through on the Paris climate accord, his administration is so honeycombed with environmental appeasers like Secretary of State Rex Tillerson. But Trump showed strength and foresight — and the sort of common sense that the nattering nabobs of negativity at the UN will never comprehend.

The Paris Agreement is a “voluntary” agreement because its architects knew it would never pass the US Senate as a treaty. Why? Because the idea of the agreement is that the US government’s regulatory agencies would impose extreme mandates on its energy sector: how it should work, what kinds of emissions it should produce, the best ways to power our lives (read: not fossil fuels), and hand over to developing world regimes billions and even trillions of dollars in aid, a direct and ongoing forcible transfer of wealth from American taxpayers to regimes all over the world, at the expense of American freedom and prosperity.

And you wonder why many people have doubts about it.

https://fee.org/articles/the-amazing-ar ... agreement/

It's voluntary? Who was going to live up to commitments anyway, then?

I don't think they even expected this one to do much. It was just a step forward to the promised land where a global government with teeth is empowered to see people commit alms to Gaia.

Once that's in place you get to see the real prize at the bottom of the cracker jack box.

Even batshit North Korea is part of the Paris Accord - who is the rogue nation again?

It's also generally thought that the only reason Syria isn't part of it, is because of a small civil war.

A civil war that is linked to possible effects of climate change.

Just for added irony.

I wish Zippy hadn't been driven out of here because his opinion would be invaluable right now. That makes you the designated go-to guy for opinions based in reality and on fact. Any ideas on how the rest of the us should move on in a post-America world? Just move forward regardless of the what the Americans do to themselves? I'm not sure what else can be done because talking anymore to those who have abandoned all reason and decency, and who are now so proud of having done so, is a complete waste of all time and effort.

It's a time for firsts I guess, but it's too bad that all of the new firsts are completely negative. I have to add another one to my list. This is the first time in my life that I've wished Canada didn't share a border with the United States. I hate to think what they're going to do to us, from more insanity at the crossings to possibly even tossing toxic waste directly into the shared rivers and lakes, as their descent into madness hits terminal velocity.

As the saying goes, Keep Calm and Chive on. Pretty much the rest of the world is doing just that. Even loads of Mayors of US cities, heads of state all over the world and business leaders (even Oil Company execs) have said that the Paris deal will move forward, even if the US has to be pulled kicking and screaming with it.

If they want to stand alone, they have that right. But they'll find the rest of the world has moved on and so has their chance to remain a world leader in many technologies. It's ironic too that Obama had to drag the worst polluter, China, into the agreement, and China was trying hard to convince Trump to stay.

It won't be wasted effort, because despite the White Houses' denial, the rest of the US will be trying their best to clean up their act. And business has seen that's what consumers want, so that's where they will go too.

Just remember what I always say. Most people are decent and good. They aren't going to start floating toxic waste in the great lakes anytime soon, because they don't want that shit any more than we do. Some industry might try, now that Trump relaxed the rules, but they also know that Trump won't be in office indefinitely. At some point, the cheque comes due.

And Canada doesn't have the best track record with toxic waste in rivers either. We shouldn't be pointing fingers till we fix our own problems.

The majority of states support it

Where in fuck did you get that from? That's not even remotely true.

Three state governors have said that they oppose the plan to withdraw from the agreement.

Three.

That's not a majority.

Well when the majority of Americans support something(especially 70%) that typically means the majority of states will.

Governments don't always reflect the will of their people, you should know that.
