And you thought the Death Star was dangerous. Speaking at the Global Climate Action Summit recently, a frothy and furry Harrison Ford — resembling Chewbacca more than Han Solo — growled and cussed at a like-minded gathering of the anthropogenic climate change faithful.
Like a fiery guru pitching a worn-out self-help scam, Ford reminded his congregation of something we’ve all heard countless times before: because of so-called man-made climate change, the “future of humanity is at stake!”
No doubt implying that America needs to elect more Democrats, Ford passionately implored the crowd to “stop giving power to people who don’t believe in science.”
I agree! Anyone who can’t tell the American public what is the definition of a male and a female, or denies the unmistakable — but, for liberals, “inconvenient” — the science of life in the womb has no business holding elected office.
Though their meteorologists often get the five-day forecast wrong, the same fools who tell us that women are just as good in combat as men want us to take their 100-year climate forecasts as the gospel truth, because, you know, “SCIENCE!”
With the same ignorant passion of Harrison Ford, for decades now the dogmatic adherents of “the [not-so] new religion of First World urban elites” have claimed that the burning of fossil fuels is destroying the planet.
Blind to what fuels their private jets and what has fueled the building of our comfortable modern world, including carbon-fiber bicycles, air-conditioned Starbucks, polyester clothes, smart-phones, laptops, plastic protest signs, “Coexist” bumper stickers, and everything else that makes a liberal lifestyle complete, hypocritical leftists scream that if we don’t get off of fossil fuels, the world will burn.
And “we are sh*t out of time” according to Harrison Ford.
Actually, San Francisco — where the Global Climate Action Summit was held this year — has had to make plenty of time for sh*t.
In order to navigate properly one of the most “progressive” cities in the world, where taking care of the environment is supposedly sacrosanct, one must consult a “poop map.” Who knew that poop in the streets was “progressive?”
Yes, the world is filled with crapholes, but they shouldn’t exist in the U.S. — at least not literally. Yet San Francisco has turned into a literal cesspool, and according to Steven Greenhut, everyone there is noticing.
“Trash bags full of approximately 20 pounds of human poop were left on the sidewalk over the weekend in downtown San Francisco,” the Fresno Bee reported on Wednesday. “It’s the latest — and perhaps most alarming — sign of the increased filthiness of one of the most popular cities in the United States.” Those smelly, possibly leaking bags were left in the downscale Tenderloin, but large swaths of upscale areas now resemble an outdoor sewer with human feces, open-air drug use, and other signs of the breakdown of civic order.
…Even the grounds around the state Capitol in Sacramento aren’t immune. In fairness, I’ve seen similar situations throughout the country. But in San Francisco the disorder isn’t confined to alleys and bushes. The encampments are in plain view and spreading. The panhandlers can be frighteningly aggressive.
An NBC Bay Area investigation from February “reveals a dangerous concoction of drug needles, garbage, and feces lining the streets of downtown San Francisco. The Investigative Unit surveyed more than 150 blocks, including some of the city’s top tourist destinations, and discovered conditions that are now being compared to some of the worst slums in the world.” In some cases, the situation may be worse than in the Third World because in those countries the filth and needles tend to be confined to certain neighborhoods, whereas in San Francisco the problem is everywhere.
In other words, San Francisco can’t even figure out how to keep human feces from their streets, yet we’re supposed to trust such politicians when it comes to something as magnificently complex as the global climate.
Maybe they should put their efforts towards building a better pooper-scooper. Perhaps they could get Bill Nye the “science” guy working on it.
Now that we’ve had a significant hurricane hit the U.S. coast, liberals want everyone to remember that the devastation that results from Hurricane Florence is the fault of man-made climate change deniers — especially President Trump.
Just as Florence was bearing down on the Carolina coast, the Washington Post pointed the finger at the President:
Yet when it comes to extreme weather, Mr. Trump is complicit. He plays down humans’ role in increasing the risks, and he continues to dismantle efforts to address those risks. It is hard to attribute any single weather event to climate change. But there is no reasonable doubt that humans are priming the Earth’s systems to produce disasters.
Dan Rather — you know, the long-time “impartial” evening news anchor at CBS — said that future generations “will damn” those “complicit” in ignoring the earth’s pleas “for a restoration to health.” Of course, most liberals “will damn” President Trump no matter what.
CNN was happy to join the “damn Trump because of the hurricane” chorus. On this past Thursday, after stating that he agreed with the Post that Trump was “complicit” in the latest hurricane, CNN political analyst John Avlon declared, “This isn’t rocket science, it is climate science.”
Actually, John, it’s just weather, but “never let a crisis go to waste,” right?
To bolster his case, Avlon did what media liberals so often do: he lied. Avlon presented his paltry audience with a graphic that claimed that there’s been a 40% increase in severe storms since 1950.
Via Twitter, Ryan Maue provided a graphic that revealed the truth. As Roger Pielke put it:
For many years, those seeking to justify carbon restrictions argued that hurricanes had become more common and intense. That hasn’t happened. Scientific assessments, including those of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and the U.S. government’s latest National Climate Assessment, indicate no long-term increases in the frequency or strength of hurricanes in the U.S. Neither has there been an increase in floods, droughts and tornadoes… Prior to Harvey, which made landfall as a Category 4 storm, the U.S. had gone a remarkable 12 years without being hit by a hurricane of Category 3 strength or stronger. Since 1970 the U.S. has only seen four hurricanes of Category 4 or 5 strength. In the previous 47 years, the country was struck by 14 such storms.
In 2016, even the New York Times was whining about the lack of hurricanes, though they did assure us that hurricanes will return, and stronger than ever. We’ve seen this song and dance too many times now.
The script is too predictable. After this storm passes, Trump will be blamed for anything that goes wrong in the recovery, and then it’s on to the next natural disaster.
Those peddling man-made global warming are responsible for some of the biggest scandals in science, which has helped to prop up one of the greatest scientific frauds of all time.
About the only thing more scandalous, more fraudulent would be to give political power to those who continue to preach or buy into to this scientific propaganda.

Ford is doing what he does best. Hand him a script and he will follow it.
That is what the actors do. There is no reality for them.
A proper ‘man of science’ would never have spoken a line of script declaring parsec as a unit of time
They invited him because he speaks at their level.
Don’t Give power to those who don’t beleive is Science Woo Hoo that’s good one coming from some Hollywood celeberty he sounds like Leonardo DiCaprio IF YOU REJECT CLIMATE CHANGE/GLOBAL WARMING YOUR REJECTING THE TRUTH who do they think their kidding with that line of malarkey Hey Hn want to be frozen in carbonite again?
Hey Han Solo remember what Ben Kenobi told you? WHOS THE MOST FOOLISH THE FOOL OR THE FOOL WHO FOLLOWS HIM
I don’t know what gives these actors the idea they are qualified to talk about science. Perhaps they believe in the script they were handed. It pretty certain that when I graduated from high school I knew more about science than they do.
Chicago is a battle ground. Some have suggested this is the result of 50 years of rule by just one party, the Democrats. Similar may be true of San Francisco. It has been bad for a long time but it obviously much worse. After graduating from high school a friend who had moved there showed me around. Neighborhoods were clearly defined. A street would separate a good neighborhood from a bad one this was followed by everyone. It now appears there are no boundaries.
From the article, “liberals want everyone to remember that the devastation that results from Hurricane Florence is the fault of man-made climate change deniers — especially President Trump.”
People who want to blame President Trump for Hurricane Florence must have been at the end of the line when brains were being passed out and when they got to the front there was nothing left. First just for the sake of argument, assume climate change from man’s emissions is real. If so, this has been going on for decades. President Trump has been in office less than two years. What could he possibly do in that period of time that would have made Hurricane Florence happen or worse? Now consider the fact that the United States has done a better job of cutting emissions of carbon dioxide than most of the European nations. Why would President Trump be at fault, but not Germany, Poland, the United Kingdom, Poland, Ireland, and a host of others? Last, consider the fact that hurricanes are decreasing in numbers. If climate has an impact, that is what it can be credited.
