Has the climate-change controversy reached a milestone? That depends in part on whether President Donald Trump follows through with his desire to appoint a President’s Committee on Climate Security (PCCS) under the National Security Council (NSC). The PCCS would be tasked with assessing the pros and cons of various perspectives on climate change—subjecting them to

Last week in WattsUpwithThat.com I published the article “Did Trump Appoint Jack the Ripper as Guardian of a Girls’ School?” It lampooned, and rebutted, attacks on Princeton physicist Dr. Will Happer and President Donald Trump’s intent for him to head a committee on climate security at the National Security Council.

One of the greatest absurdities of the so-called Green New Deal proposed then backed away from by socialist-inclined Democrats, is the idea that the nation’s transportation needs can be met by building high-speed rail everywhere – and getting rid of cars and airplanes. This utopian nonsense supposedly is rooted in a desire to “do something
