Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm couldn’t tell you the difference between electromagnetic or nuclear energy if her life depended on it. Then again, there’s not a single “climate change” ideologue in the Biden administration who has any concept of science at all. None of them. To them, everything is politics.
As you watch this brief soundbite from remarks Energy Secretary Granholm made to the Global Clean Energy Action Forum, pay attention to what she says and the way she says it. The pantomime of how she says it. [11 seconds] WATCH:
.
What state elected her governor? Oh yeah, she’s from Hunger Games district 5.

I’m re-reading Moby Dick for a glimpse into our energy future.
Thar she blows!
What she meant to say is it’s here to give you a royal screwing and it can’t kill you fast enough.
Cheering the sheep in the chute.
Yuck
She sounds and moves just like hilldabeast
No doubt a role model!
.
The mouth contortions are uncanny.
It’s almost as if she took an impression of Hillary’s bite and had it made into a prosthetic . . .
I thought the exact same thing.
“Most significant in human history”?
So were the Homolador and the Holocaust.
In some form both cannot be replicated on our behalf soon enough for Granholm and her comrades.
And remember, she doesn’t pay for gas. Nor do most of the SES, they have cars and drivers. Now the gov’t workers make more that the private sector. And they continue to make that salary, independent of how bad the economy becomes. How did that come to pass?
Thats Holodomor ..from the Ukro word for hunger … holodo (goloda in Russian) and -mor, which seems to be a borrowed Latin root that connotes death (mortal, muerto, morbid, etc)
Thanks for the correction. Can’t go back to fix it.
It was worth the etymology lesson!
Language is a fascinating part of the vast puzzle that is humanity and its history.
The Armenian Holocaust also. The Armenian made sure to exterminate as many of the leaders as they could. The Armenians are amongst the oldest Christians in the world
I like my district. It includes Texas and Florida. I think we could field some pretty good Hunger Games contestants. Maybe Matt from Demolition Ranch in Season One.
Good for you.
So glad you feel protected.
You are still going to lose your country if the cheating in several counties and states is not corrected.
People had better come out in droves for all elections, otherwise we will not be a republic.
We are already not a republic due to election fraud. What you mean, I believe, is that we should so overwhelm the fraud system that it breaks.
I like how You Think ,
Gen Sen !
I think we broke their election fraud system in 2016, and even worse in 2020. That didn’t phase the global elite, as they dug in and pretended they won, even though the steal was so obviously blatant.
They no longer care what we think.
She’s a great actress for the left-wing crowd, which is why she was chosen for the job.
She has that Hillary appeal.
The climate change believers will eat this up, and maybe some dopey on the fence people who don’t investigate anything.
Hillary has appeal????
Only if she’s holding an apple and a paring knife.
Its dangerous to let Leftists handle sharp objects.
Great actress? She sounds like an arse.
Appropo…. The personalization of the mascot and symbol of her political criminal organization!
A little Warren
A little Hillary
And a lot bat shit Kamala Krazy
That’s three strikes and you’re out.
If only!
A trifecta!
Somehow I don’t think this demon or her cohorts will willingly use a bow and arrow to hunt deer, nor Eat Ze Bugs. However, she’s more than willing to force you to do it. Yet, her lord and master, lucifer, will make her bow down lower than the Pure Bloods and scrounge in the pigsty with the hogs, fighting them for a slimed potato.
And lucifer will have a great big belly-laugh at all the formerly arrogant WEF’ers!
Kinda wish I could watch that happen but I won’t be there. 🙏
On the contrary John the word of God States in more than one place that we will be watching them, we will see them march off to their eternal torment.
LittleNicky is closer to the truth than she knows except there isn’t going to be any laughing by those who reject Jesus the Christ especially their father Lucifer.
“Hunger Games District 5” 😂 👏
Just how much longer before the dam breaks? There are millions of ticked off Americans.
They are pushing us to that end.
I wonder. They certainly think they can win if it comes to violence. They have the LEOs, and they’ve gutted the military.
I am a VNVet, and now that I’m 80, I can’t fight like I used to. But I’ve been warning of this situation for 62 years. I had already had 2 tours over there before my first vote for Goldwater. He was right of course; but the Left is more cleaver than even he foresaw. I can sit on the sidelines now and watch the remaining Patriots fight, while I load.
I like district 3. We bring in Indiana, Ohio, West Virginia, Eastern Colorado up to I-35, Wyoming, Montana, ND, SD and Nebraska and we’re good.
I’m confused, those states are in districts #2, 4, & 5 according to the map above. Are you referring to something else?
Energy transition??? It’s not long overdue and the idea should be tossed out with the rest of these climate change morons.
We are to be transitioned to little or no energy consumption as fast as they can work it out!
Morons and Fiends working in harmony!
Targets!!!
My father grew up in a large European capital city. He rode horses as a child, though this same city is overrun with cars now. In the 1980’s I remember him saying, “All these people who are so concerned over longterm gasoline availability and holes in the ozone, they seem really to want us to go back to pre-Industrial Revolution technology: horse transportation, hand planting/harvesting of crops, wax candles, cooking over wood fires…” I think he was on to something.
If this energy transition is truly driven by environmentalists so concerned over our delicate planet, I wonder they aren’t looking more closely at the mining operations that will be required to supply lithium for batteries, trashing of all out-dated equipment, trashing of newly created junk (like spent lithium batteries, solar panels and turbine blades), and so forth.
[Just an aside here. As I understand it, lithium is most easily extracted from salt flats like those in Bolivia. I see in the news this month that Bolivian President Luis Arce says he’d like to see his country produce 40% of the world’s lithium by 2030. The infrastructure is not developed to make access to those areas convenient, hence, the huge pit mines in Western Australia and elsewhere. One would think the environmentalists would be up in arms over the destruction of this pristine territory.]
Question: Who truly benefits financially with this government mandated transition?
China.
If they were genuine they would be against immigration and for stopping it and deporting
Eradication of middle class whites is a priority.
Replacement population at work here.
Yes! We use separate and distinct colors to create art with beautiful tapestries and paintings. That is celebrating diversity.
But when we mix the color palette together we lose the vibrancy and turn the colors into one indistinguishable, amorphous gray blob.
Any sentient bring can do the math. Analyze how much energy it takes to make an EV. It’s much more than a gas-powered vehicle. We don’t have anywhere near enough infrastructure to support EVs. And solar and wind won’t suffice. It must be a move to depopulate the planet. Nothing else makes any sense,\.
Another Canadian.
I won’t say anything else.
I smiled John…thank you!
“Can’t progress fast enough” is admitting that they can’t do what they say they want to do before time runs out to advert a disaster of their own making.
So, when the SHTF, don’t blame Granholm, she just warned us that they can’t get it done.
Personnel *is* policy.
This won’t end well for her.
Make it so……please!
This Pittsburgh native is disgusted to see that Green Maggot festering and blathering in my town … a town that built damn near half of America’s infrastructure by combusting hydrocarbons to make steel.
I live in NEPA, family ade it out of the anthracite mines mostly in my Grandfathers gen, but Scranton/Wilkes Barre is dead, looks like section 8 and crack heads now along with all the illegals flown in by this pos regime
Affectionately known as “The Mole” in Michigan
Or “Granmole”.
Keeps them gainfully employed.
At our ”expense.”
Properly cynical, which I approve of. But the percentage is much lower. Scientists themselves are often a contrarian lot. They lose funding all of the time for not towing some political line or other. But then they are considered a “hack” after that. It’s really the gatekeepers of journals and academia that are the problem, not necessarily scientists themselves. If you read much debate among the science community (I know, everything is a “community” now), one of the biggest arguments is over journals being corporatized and ruining lines of research by refusing to publish anything that goes against convention.
I live and grew up in michigan. I had to leave the state when she was governor to get a job as there was zilch in michigan. We were a one state recession until every caught up with our hell in 2008
We also call her granmole
THERE IS NO TRANSITION. tHERE IS NOTHING TO TRANSITION TO !!!! All these idiots have done is shut down what they don’t like and like Solyndra, they are just a-wishin’ and a-hopin’ . We can’t go on with this much longer. I’m afraid-of all of us losing our savings and money and I’m afraid of crime which is running rampant.
First bugs, then people, because the jab has killed how many, billions? Or at least thats how many got it, it will take 3-5
Oh man, I laughed when I read Hunger Games District 5. . . and then I suddenly stopped, realizing it’s all true.
From the edge of Hunger Games District 4.
Has she been watching video of the Hildabeast?
Maybe she gets personal coaching from her.
Re-education camps aren’t as efficient as firing squads.
Firing squads aren’t as efficient as importing Turd-World Berserkers to eat the natives.
What will the snowflake liberals do when these policies they stupidly supported start literally destroying them?
Probably look up at the sky with bugged eyes and scream WAAAHHHH!
The reason the border is wide open and the third worlders with their mayhem and maladies are being dispersed throught the USA as quickly as possible.
Well cared for at our expense.
Soon as there’s nothing to eat they will stop being cared for and then the fun begins.
Yup. The ” fun” will come all too soon, I recon.
Intentionally bankrupting and destroying wealth over a fantasy will make a nice skeleton for her impeachment.
They are all on drugs.
They are not transitioning to anything but destruction of human civilization and they will go down with it!
When someone is standing over you while your on your knees lady, ask yourself, where did i go wrong. Psycho’s.
she is completely crazy. she is pre murdering millions of people, destroying economies, upending lives, and crushing the human future. these nutjobs don’t care to put their energy systems in place before they dismantle the old. what we are seeing is a stunt where a rider is jumping from one bike to another. the first bike is mature tech, reliable, improvable. the new bike has tiny wheels, no pedals, and the seat is uncomfortable. the rider makes the leap to the new bike, only it is 20 feet behind, and lands on the pavement. that is what these imbeciles are doing.
she reminds me of some of the ladies that were in my mothers luncheon club 30 years ago, all bubbly, delusional, and flat out scary. (a few were cool.)
americas greatest supply change shortage is sober and talented adults in government. they are all fighting to be the first lemming off the cliff.
Sundance is correct. She says this with enthusiasm and zeal. She wants this to happen yesterday!
She has not a single clue about the whirlwind they are about to release or what they are going to reap from it.
One thing she can be sure of. She will need armored guards!
I think of Spain during the Peninsular War. The Spanish would ambush and kill the French occupiers every chance they could
And she’ll have them. Paid for with your tax dollars.
They are all “intellectuals” who come up with ideas that they think work and then when they fail, they walk away saying, “oh well.” But they are never the ones to get hurt by their stupid ideas its everyone else who gets hurt when they walk away without thought or conscience over their failures. They will never admit they failed.
The Lord delivers His ultimate Justice onto unrepentant liars and unjust evil rulers…..
Isaiah 10:1 – Woe to those who enact evil statutes,
And to those who constantly record unjust decisions,
Isaiah 1:23 – “Your rulers are rebels
And companions of thieves;
Everyone loves a bribe
And chases after rewards.
They do not defend the orphan,
Nor does the widow’s plea come before them
But ultimately,
Isaiah 3:14 –
“The Lord enters into judgment with the elders and princes of His people,
“It is you who have devoured the vineyard;
The plunder of the poor is in your houses.”
Ms. Granholm will receive her due justice in the end…..
Will the next Republican President and Republican Governors please start passing executive orders and even better laws reducing and/or eliminating this dishonest green energy? Limit it and decrease it to nothing.
And pass tax free coal mining and oil/gas drilling zones plus add incentives for fossil fuels.
Also if the Detroit auto makers want to be a monopoly as far as American auto companies go, and keep shoving electric cars on us, then they need broken up and laws passed to make it easier for startup new American vehicle makers.
Unions must be tamed.
Unions should be eradicated, having outlived their original purpose and only exist to pay off politicians for favorable legislation and make their leadership wealthy.
Trump was planning on it. He was going to declare gov’t unions abolished. They were ready to spring Schedule F on the bureaucracy, right after their landslide win. Except that didn’t happen.
Back in the WWI and WW2 era, the military had hydrogen-powered vehicles. What happened to that science? Once done it could be easily replicated and improved. Why is that information buried?
Here is what happened to one of our local clean energy boondoggles in the last few weeks.
Fossil fuel powered backhoes, cranes and wrecking balls demolished a 2MW wind turbine.
Why?
The local Board of Health declared the operations a public nuisance,
The BOH abated operations,
The developer walked away from the project leaving the Town to fund the demolition.
Note: Not the only local clean energy disaster…too bad the media doesn’t report upon these disasters.
Granholm is an economic, energy, engineering, and investment idiot.
Solar provided 3% of US energy in 2020. Projections (?) of 5% in 2022.
https://www.eia.gov/todayinenergy/detail.php?id=50357
Wind provided 9.2% of US Energy in 2021. https://www.eia.gov/energyexplained/electricity/electricity-in-the-us.php
87.8% of US energy came from other sources. (Coal, Gas, Nuclear, Hydro)
To charge EVs, if only 50% of transportation was EV, the US would need to DOUBLE the capacity of ALL generation and distribution. That is NOT possible with Wind/Solar. US has about 1,200 GW of total generation, about 1,000 GW available (Maintenance, etc). Transportation is 13 Million bbls/day of oil, or 952 GW of power required, over and above existing electric generation capacity. That would require restringing 427,000 miles of transmission and distribution lines at an avg of 3 Million dollars/mile (1.3 Trillion dollars) and about 100 years to do it. It would require building and commissioning 1.14 Million 2.5 MW wind turbines or 1 turbine every 4 minutes, non-stop, for the next 8 years. And it would require some 400 Trillion dollars in PowerWall batteries to cover the 23 days/yr that the US has insufficient wind and solar.
These people are technologically and economically illiterate, ignorant, incompetent, unqualified, ideological mouthpieces for a doomed effort that can only destroy the US economy and the lives of every American, in addition to destabilizing the World and bringing global war to fruition as well as global starvation. This kind of stupid needs to be kicked to the curb as fast as possible. The glib gibberish dribbling from their mouths is a testament to utter incompetence.
She is rewarded well for being such an idiot.
You Sir have a flair for eloquently stating the truth. Now this is word salad done with meaning and clarity! What a joy to read!
I second that!
Cowboy 79, is sharing your post ok with you ?
As you wish. I just can’t stand Granholm’s ignorance and condescension when she has zero knowledge of the situation.
I’m a mechanical engineer, my brother is an electrical power engineer. We marvel at the epic level of stupid this administration has regarding grid scale power. They are like unruly children who know nothing.
Nice looking greyhound

Essentially, absolutely None of the proposed “solutions” are possible, feasible, affordable, or reliable.
Their math works out just fine if only 1% of the population is allowed to own cars.
Actually would be nearer 100%… of the survivors.
They use the new math where if you get close to the correct answer your answer is then correct.
I fear that only extinguishment will be sufficient; kicking to the curb won’t be enough.
She believes she is a god and can simply change the laws of physics to fit her political goals. Manmade global warming is the biggest most expensive hoax in history. The reality is that it is thermodynamically impossible to increase atmospheric temperatures by increasing the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere beyond more than a few tenths of a degree C in the hottest deserts in the world on the hottest days in the year. To do even this would require more than 10 times the current CO2 levels of the atmosphere. That is why their predictions of doom never materialize. The US government currently pays Universities more than 3 billion dollars a year to produce fraudulent papers supporting the AGW hoax. She obviously is thrilled that the environmental con job is working and soon have all the peasants living in mud huts and spending their short miserable lives within a few miles of where they were born while she lives in an energy rich world of luxury. It is disgusting!
I was just in Michigan on Mullet Lake for a week. Beautiful place. EVERYONE had let’s go Brandon flags on their boats.
Based on what I saw I don’t believe the state is blue. No chance.
Oh my gosh. I love Mullet Lake and I love that part of MI.
Heaven on earth.
I agree with you, they did not vote for what they got.
You guys will LOVE this!
Saw it months ago but yes it’s good
She does a lot of talking and laughing but not a not a lot of listening with those over grown flappy ears.
Best thing is to revoke her citizenship and deport her back to Canada, where is is originaly from. She will be more comfortable there with their dicatorship government and approved lauging at their citizens.
what utter rubbish
So much of that in PedoJoe’s admin.
By design.
I believe the schlock Wind Power turbines are slaughtering loads of them Monarchs) . Also more immigrants= more people=more pesticides use, and less habitat for them. In my area i have only seen 2 Cabbage Whites, where I used to see 10-20 at a time. Monarchs used to be regulars, less every year. Not one Honey bee in my yard all year, hardly any Butterflies……………….These muppets do not care about the environment or even know what they are talking about. It really is a muppet theatre where billionaires who hate us are pulling their strings.
Monarch butterflies could be declared an endangered species. Here’s what that means.
https://www.vox.com/2015/1/2/7481337/monarch-butterfly-endangered
We have plenty of cabbage whites if you need ’em. 😆
I’m taking out what’s left of the broccoli and kale tomorrow to freeze up. We are fortunate to have wild honey bees that live back in our woods that take care of pollinating the tomatoes, peppers and tomatillos now feeding us. And lots of little predatory wasps thanks to the blooming chives planted around the veg garden to get after the cutworms and such. Next weekend we will start seeding the fall veg in weekly plantings – carrots, spinach, bok choi, Napa cabbage and more kale. The garden is doing quite well and I am very pleased. Yes it takes extra effort to double the garden output with an intensive gardening strategy, but it does not require double the effort, maybe just a quarter more. I will have plenty to trade and share with lots more canned, pickled and squirreled away in the freezer for the winter.
Thanks to Sundance and his crew for the early warnings about food prices; they have a spot in my evening prayers of thanks to God for helping them continue guiding us at the CTH.
Be sure to give thanks, Treepers you will be rewarded for your faith. Ask me how I know. 😉
Slainte friend. I so wish I had more property than I do. I would do a wildflower meadow as well as some farming.
Your doing what all of us should be doing.
I only have about 150 square feet of garden and planted it at half the recommended spacing between plants and rows. Between the rows I laid down tree bark to walk on and it acts as a top dressing too. It all has worked beautifully. Medium height plants (<=24") are staked upright to keep rhem from spreading out and crowding each other. The peppers, tomatoes and tomatillos are staked and tied using the 'Florida weave' so they grow vertically and flat. All rows are oriented north-south so both sides get sunlight as the sun passes over during the day.
Slainte to you my friend. We will prevail.
FJB and his puppeteers.
Just read today that Ford just laid off 8000. All mostly on the Gasoline powered car lines. Not looking good for Ford. They only have two EV models Mustang and F-150, and they have a huge problem with recalls on their battery contactor assemblies. They overheat and fuse the solenoids – vehicle stops if you’re lucky. Then call the tow truck….
We will be expected to walk and use whatever public transport might be available. Eventually.
Bicycles may become a luxury item available and affordable only for the very few well to do.
Privetly owned and operated vehicles will only be for members of the club that we ain’t in.
Aside from the Mustang, I believe Ford is only producing SUVs and Pickups. They no longer produce sedans.
If we could just include West by G-d into 3 Bloc, I feel pretty good about our chances this Season!
Just like college football
Area 3 is gonna kick butt!
😉
Mass psychosis and media brainwashing machine propagandists promoting Marxist communism for low information voters viewers. Nothing but crap from the cesspool.
This will fail bigly.
First the Urban Areas will go first, no heat or air conditioning, no food, …come on..Man… There will be riots and burning buildings the likes of which we have never seen in our lives. Do you realize how these normies act when they can’t get what they want, when they want it and how they want it?
How in Hell are these geniuses going to transition our entire COUNTRY to Green Everything NOW????
Who are the geniuses in the engineering, and technology fields who can do all that work? And who are they going to hire to be the workers bees????
Seriously????
While indeed standard issue of the day, I think I prefer Abnormies to describe the doomed subliterate dysfunctional masses.
The liberal snowflakes are going to rue the day they supported all of this bs when it comes knocking down their doors
She’s Canadian. An interloper in our politics. Good buddies with Castrudeau and Chrystina (Ukrainian) Freeland.
And they’re all best buddies with ……
Infiltration is a thing. She behaves very much like a collaborating Canadian agent championing the WEF agendas of Castrudeau, Freehand and the other WEF agents who now control the Canadian government.
What is a globalist but a person whose loyalties arise from governments other than the United States. It matters not which other government. It can be a corporation, and institution, a foundation, a transnational union, an existing government, a government-in-waiting, or an idealized government to be.
They are all the same in this axis of loyalty index: the present government of the United States is not the object of their loyalty. They are loyal to a different governmental form other than the United States.
They will claim they have shared loyalty.
Essentially, they claim to be almost pregnant by fiat of a simultaneous seminal interest.
Happy union indeed.
Freeland is a full-fledged Ukrainian Banderista.
“……….and it can’t progress fast enough.”
I interpret that to mean they understand that time is running out on their ability to force their agenda on us, that they won’t be holding political power much longer, and so they have to act quickly before a worldwide uprising takes them all out.
A worldwide uprising is inevitable with their agenda going forward. Details are only as to what degree, and the quickness of it with the suffering that will be causing it. I would be more concerned with what will fill the power vacuum amidst all of that chaos.
F’in liberal nuts. Dreams are “plans.” Hope is reality. They alone are gifted and can see the future of technologies whose basic chemistry or physics or economics they don’t understand. To their friends on the Hill or in media, they are superior future “thinkers” and political shakers. They feed on each other’s delusional expressions. It’s all nonsense. Every single word of it.
May they get the karma they are asking for.
Kindergartners would recoil at this level of sing-songy condescension.
Are there any organizations, such as the America First group, or organizations such as US-based oil & gas industry, plus a few State AG’s, that are stepping up sue this government for instigating public policy not a single person, or their actual elected representatives, voted for? Asking, because I don’t see any court giving individual citizens standing, but big money (i.e. lobbyist money) corporations should have standing.
Nobody elected the WEF acolytes to push through their agenda, how are they getting away with this with only private citizens, truckers in Canada, farmers in the Netherlands, the indigenous in Australia, the yellow-vests of France making noise to stop this worldwide mania being foisted on their lives.
Of all FJB’s cabinet picks, she is the scariest of them all.
On the other hand, her Bagdad Bob enthusiasm does give one hope that her little house of cards is about to come tumbling down.
She just ignores the fact that currently, about 10 to 12% of our (US) energy comes from the seven different types of renewable energies.
I don’t see how this transition can be accelerated to meet her expectations within a free market system.
Also, energy demand across America is increasing each year and on top of all of this headwind, are the other countries matching us?
She is a clown.
Her and Buttigieg are both clowns indeed.
Their role in the organized foreign infiltration of our government is to deconstruct.
All they need do is deconstruct. The more damage done, the better. The more quickly the damage is done, the better.
Their role is to tear it down, tear it apart, render us defenseless, convert us from citizens to subjects.
Build Back Better = Build Back Different.
They want a return to traditional oligarchic monopoly. They want the death of The Enlightenment Era.
The seek the death of individual sovereignty. The death of taxation with representation.
The seek a permanent return to Taxation Without Representation.
Let that sink in.
They call it PROGRESS.
Others call it TREASON.
Indeed.
They know they are unleashing epic murderous destruction.
What they are doing makes genocide look like a quaint pastime.
Look at all the affirmative action foreigners in many “western” governments. The UK is really bad
I call it regression. We are heading into another dark age.
Funny that, Muslims did the last Dark Age too.
This admin has a busload of ’em.
In Buttgagger’s case, he’s obviously an ass clown.
Let’s let California secede and take NY, CT, NJ, MA and VT with them. It’s time.
No way, don’t cede the coastlines. Lets encourage those citizens to keep their word this time and when 45 becomes 47 they will actually move to Canada (sorry Canada).
Deport them to Libya, Sudan,Congo etc
Sorry, witch, but I’m not eating the bugs.
She’s just as happy having the bugs eat you.
The craziest women in this country are Democrats.
