Watch: Morano on Fox on Biden Energy Agenda: ‘Screw America’, It’s The ‘Exact Opposite of Anything in the Interest of American National Security’
Fox Business’ The Evening Edit, anchor Elizabeth MacDonald – Broadcast April 22, 2024
Morano: “The fine print is just, I hate to say it, ‘Screw America,’ once again from this administration, especially on energy. They begged Venezuela, the Middle East for more and more oil, at the same time restricting our domestic energy,” Morano said. “When you look at what he’s trying to do, you have to wonder, this is the exact opposite of anything in the interest of the United States national security.” Morano went on to say that these awful decisions would have to come from people blinded by an “ideology that believes shutting down American energy … somehow benefits the world.”

Wash Post admits reality: ‘Amid explosive demand, America is running out of power’ – U.S. ‘power grid’ being pushed ‘to the brink. Utilities can’t keep up’ – ‘It is staggering’ – But WaPo frets energy shortage ‘threatens to stifle the transition to cleaner energy’
Washington Post’s is concerned that this power shortage “threatens to stifle the transition to cleaner energy, as utility executives lobby to delay the retirement of fossil fuel plants and bring more online.”
“When you look at the numbers, it is staggering,” said Jason Shaw, chairman of the Georgia Public Service Commission, which regulates electricity. “It makes you scratch your head and wonder how we ended up in this situation.
Media finally gets it! ‘Duke Energy is transitioning away from coal. It means power bills are becoming more expensive’
Marc Morano comment: Duke Energy spokesman calls gutting reliable coal power — “improvements” to the grid. Yet they are virtually signaling to political mandates for Net Zero. As utilities close down reliable fossil fuel energy generation, they claim unspecified “benefits” to the “transitions.” In the video, Tesla home generator batteries are touted for the inevitable blackouts coming. Ideologies, politicians, activists, and colluding corporations and utilities are monkeying around with our once reliable grid due to climate politics. Then they offer some customer ‘rebates,’ ‘incentives’, & ‘subsidiy’ programs that are supposed to alleviate the constantly rising energy prices. This is an insane process that needs to stop, and Duke Energy spokesmen need a remedial education on how to speak to the public and stop lying about green energy ‘improvements’ to the grid. At the same time, they collude and do their part to sabotage the grid.
‘Spirit Whales’ (which ‘no-one believes exist’) hold up Australia’s most expensive energy project
“If the gas project was to go ahead, the Spirit Whales would be endangered. And if the Spirit Whales were killed, none of the creatures of the sea would know what do to. Short of Aqua Man stepping in to save the day, the planet would be sunk. How did the Federal Court know all of this? Raelene Cooper! Ms Cooper, or as her activist friends like to call her, the Custodian of Whale Dreaming, speaks to the Spirit Whales. And they speak to her. Seriously. This was in evidence presented to the Federal Court.”
Politico: ‘Political violence has an increasingly common outlet — the electric grid!’ – ‘Why extremists keep trying to turn out the lights’
Security experts attribute the rise in attacks to a growth in domestic extremism and terrorism, enabled by public messaging boards where people share information about how to target vulnerabilities in the power system.
