The wind and solar industries are struggling to win the hearts and minds of householders and businesses being belted by skyrocketing power prices.

The media has played a role in that culture and none more prominently than the New York Times. Recently, however, the mob came for liberal professors and media who have remained silent for years…

The usual trick is to invent some model said to capture the unique benefits of running on sunshine and breezes. […]
Gullible media have reported that Hamas has accepted a ceasefire deal. They have not. They rejected the proposed ceasefire deal and proposed their own one. And what are some key aspects of it: Hamas shall release three Israeli detainees on the third day of the agreement, after which Hamas shall release three other detainees every […]
