Democrats Push National Climate Bank To Further ‘Green New Deal’
A National Climate Bank would aggregate $1 trillion to invest into transformative green infrastructure and ‘clean energy’ projects. This promotes pure Sustainable Development, aka Technocracy, but paid for by taxpayers.
The bill is sponsored by Rep. Debbie Dingell (D-MI), who was formerly a very active Republican until she met and married the late Rep. John Dingell (D-MI) in 1981. ⁃ TN Editor
The idea of a National Climate Bank is catching on in Congress, and it could infuse billions of dollars into efforts to eliminate the US’s planet-heating carbon emissions. A handful of Congressional proposals have been made over the past year calling for the government to start investing in technology upgrades and inventions that would cut down on greenhouse gases. Funds from the National Climate Bank would ideally lower the financial risks associated with green innovation — encouraging private investors to throw more money into the pot, without shifting costs to consumers. The hope is that the bank can tackle everything from building up the infrastructure for electric vehicles and solar power storage, to making communities more resilient to the effects of climate change.

How Germany Wrecks Environment With Alternative Energy
To ‘save the planet’, Germany has 30,000 wind turbines while the U.S. has over 54,000, but actual output is only around 17% of capacity. Meanwhile, environmental degradation and wildlife kill are swept under the carpet. ⁃ TN Editor
Germany now generates over 35% of its yearly electricity consumption from wind and solar sources. Over 30 000 wind turbines have been built, with a total installed capacity of nearly 60 GW. Germany now has approximately 1.7 million solar power (photovoltaic) installations, with an installed capacity of 46 GW. This looks very impressive.
Unfortunately, most of the time the actual amount of electricity produced is only a fraction of the installed capacity. Worse, on “bad days” it can fall to nearly zero. In 2016 for example there were 52 nights with essentially no wind blowing in the country. No Sun, no wind. Even taking “better days” into account, the average electricity output of wind and solar energy installations in Germany amounts to only about 17% of the installed capacity.
The obvious lesson is: if you want a stable, secure electricity supply, then you will need reserve, or backup sources of electricity which can be activated on more or less short notice to fill the gaps between electricity demand and the fluctuating output from wind and solar sources.

Department of Justice to Hold Workshop on Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act
The Department of Justice will hold a public workshop in Washington, D.C. on Feb. 19, 2020, titled “Section 230 – Nurturing Innovation or Fostering Unaccountability?,” to discuss Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act of 1996, its expansive interpretation by the courts, its impact on the American people and business community, and whether improvements to the law should be made.
Drafted nearly 25 years ago in the early years of the internet to protect online businesses in their incipiency, Section 230 limited certain liabilities for interactive computer service providers for third-party content on their platforms. Courts have interpreted the scope of Section 230 broadly, leaving a wide array of online activity immune from lawsuits. Now that the industry has matured, valid questions have been raised regarding the broad scope of Section 230 and whether the immunity is still required in its current form.
Proponents claim that Section 230 immunity led to the flourishing of the internet and the creation of the online ecosystem we see today. Opponents, on the other hand, believe that the broad interpretation of Section 230 has prevented solutions to a variety of problems that continue to proliferate to the detriment of victims, law enforcement, and civil discourse. The Justice Department intends to examine these issues and identify and discuss potential solutions.
The workshop is free and open to the public, and will be held in the FBI Auditorium, 935 Pennsylvania Ave NW, Washington, D.C. 20535, from 9 a.m. Eastern Time to 12:45 p.m. Eastern Time. If you are interested in attending, please register at https://www.justice.gov/ag/webform/section-230-workshop-registration by Feb. 9, 2020. As seating is limited, invitations to attend will be sent to registered participants on a first-come, first-served basis. Members of the press should also email Alexei.Woltornist@usdoj.gov.

Globalization Faces Disaster With Supply Chain Leaving China
The finely-tuned global supply chain built by corporate Technocrats is being disrupted by the Black Swan event of the deadly Wuhan virus in China. The shock of economic standstill, lack of travel, missed deadlines, etc., could provide a “Lehman moment” and domino effect. ⁃ TN Editor
Everyone expecting a quick resolution to the epidemic and a rapid return to pre-epidemic conditions would be well-served by looking beyond first-order effects.
While the media naturally focuses on the immediate effects of the coronavirus epidemic, the possible second-order effects receive little attention: first order, every action has a consequence. Second order, every consequence has its own consequence.
So the media’s focus is the first-order consequences: the number of infected people and fatalities, government responses such as quarantines, and so on. The general expectation is these first-order consequences will dissipate shortly and life will return to its pre-epidemic status with virtually no significant changes.
Second-order effects caution: not so fast. Second-order consequences may play out for months or even years even if the epidemic ends as quickly as the consensus expects.
