Keystone Pipeline Politics

By Mike Huckabee

If President Biden was going to make other nations love us more by replacing Trump, he’s not doing a very good job of schmoozing Canada. After leaving them holding the bag for billions by abruptly and pointlessly canceling the Keystone XL pipeline (while approving a Russian pipeline), the Biden White House is now begging OPEC to increase oil production to ease skyrocketing gas prices. And if you think his unfathomable actions are infuriating now-unemployed pipeline construction workers, try talking to the Premier or the Energy Minister of Alberta, Canada.

Related: Having killed the Keystone XL Pipeline project just because Trump approved it and environmentalists opposed it, the Biden White House is trying to quietly allow the lesser-known Line 3 Pipeline in Minnesota to continue construction, despite similar environmentalist protests. Critics say it’s an admission that Biden knows there was no legitimate reason to kill the Keystone project other than politics.

For those who insist that we had to kill Keystone to somehow save the Earth: one way or another, we need energy, and it’s better that we create it ourselves than have to depend on OPEC for it. It’s also a lot safer for the environment to send it through a carbon-neutral pipeline than on big ships that can leak into the ocean, trucks that can turn over or trains that can derail.

As I’ve noted before, one study found that using diesel trains to transport the same amount of oil to the refineries that would have flowed through the Keystone XL Pipeline will generate pollution equal to putting an additional 400,000 cars on the road. But I guess that’s okay, as long as you’re doing it to “save the planet.”

“Even a Broken Clock Is Right Twice a Day” Desk

By Mike Huckabee

From our “Even a Broken Clock Is Right Twice a Day” Desk: Kudos to National Public Radio, of all outlets, for calling out the CDC for spreading misinformation. The CDC claimed that the Delta variant of COVID-19 is “as transmissible as chicken pox,” one of the most contagious viruses known. As NPR pointed out, that’s only true if you overestimate the contagiousness of Delta and underestimate the contagiousness of chicken pox. It’s two to three times as contagious as the original COVID-19, but it’s no chicken pox.

Republicans And Democrats

By Mike Huckabee

I’m still trying to figure out why 19 Senate Republicans thought we needed to spend $1.2 trillion on a Democrat wish list “infrastructure” bill that spends only about a fifth of its budget on what most people would consider infrastructure. But I’m sure I will never understand why a Republican Senator thinks that now is the perfect time to create a whole lot of new federal judgeships to let the Democrats fill.

The Big Wheel of Random Outrage

By Mike Huckabee

It’s Saturday, so let’s spin the Big Wheel of Random Outrage and select today’s common term that we’re suddenly no longer allowed to use because it’s OFFENSIVE! And the wheel clicks to a…stop…on…”Female!” According to an op-ed in the UC-Santa Barbara newspaper, it is now “uncomfortable,” “dehumanizing” and “overwhelmingly sexist” to use the term “female” to refer to people who are…uh…female.

https://redstate.com/alexparker/2021/08/13/university-of-california-op-ed-insists-calling-women-females-is-dehumanizing-n425743

So, what are we going to call females if we can’t call them females? Maybe we should let the brilliant creative minds at the Academy of Breastfeeding Medicine come up with a new term. They’re up for the task. When trans activists complained that “mother” had to be banned because it somehow offended the many men who give birth, the government came up with the laughable term “birthing person.”

But even more creatively, to affirm its “commitment to gender equity and health equity” in creating terminology for “lactation-related” language, the ABM coined the new term “chestfeeding” (I feel sorry for those poor babies, they’re gonna starve); and instead of the offensive sexist term “breastfeeding mother,” they suggest “human milk-feeding individuals.”

That could also apply to the wait person at Denny’s who brings me milk for my corn flakes. Speaking of that, do you know what’s a perfect term for these people? “Flakes.”


High Profile Allegation

By Mike Huckabee

Realizing that most of my readers don’t watch “Saturday Night Live” anymore, I should probably still take notice of this latest high-profile sexual abuse allegation against former cast member Horatio Sanz. In his defense, his attorneys deny the woman's claims and say she’s trying to shake him down for money. Left unanswered: why would the parents of any young teenage girl allow her to go out all night with hard-partying, heavy-drinking celebrities who were twice her age? Warning: disturbing sexual content in this story:

    Yeah Biden IS mentally incompetent. Talking to a wall during the primary?
    China and Russia pull his strings and got him into office with fraud.

    Governor Huckabee:
    By now I am sure you are aware, Biden is NOT in charge, Obama, AOC, Nasty Nancy etc. are pulling his strings. They and the dumbocrats have no clue to what we the people want or even need, they just want their Power and Control over all of Americans. They can go maskless, travel where and how they want, but Not for Us! Trump was right recently, America is slowly becoming communist. And under Marxism, we will all be doomed.

    RE: "Keystone Pipeline Politics ". My guess is that the Biden's stand to make multi $millions$ off the Russian Pipeline. And sadly we American Citizens will be paying for this at the gas pumps. Now! Tie this in with Afghanistan and Russia. When the Soviets were in Afghanistan fighting the Afghan mujahideen in the 1980's, the Soviets had military strategic interest in Afghanistan and also the Soviets wanted to have to have a pipeline across Afghanistan to Iran from Russia as well as infrastructure. I seriously doubt the Russians have lost interest in the possibility of these endeavors. To do this the America would absolutely have to be out of the way! And the dots start connecting with Biden's decisions to withdraw American troops, NGO's and civilians. Most interesting perhaps Biden is not so mentally incompetent after all.

    Basically NONE of your headlines compel the reader to read the article! Your headlines typically give NO INDICATION of what the article is about. For instance, the headline "The Big Wheel of Random Outrage" is so non-specific that it does not lead you in to wanting to read the article. Why not, " Woke Left Trans Activists Offended by the Term 'Breast-Feeding Mothers' - Pushing to Change to 'Chest -Feeding Individuals'".

    Your story, "High Profile Allegation" could be about anyone anywhere - why not, "Saturday Night Live Cast Member Accused of Sexual Abuse of a minor"?

    The headline "Republicans and Democrats" does NOT SAY A THING ABOUT WHAT IS IN THE ARTICLE! Why not "Sen. Todd Young (R-IN) Working Hand-In-Hand With Democrats to Help Them Load up the Judiciary."

    I would be more than happy to read your articles before you post them to suggest engaging / compelling headlines for all of your articles. As it is your headlines are not the least bit so.

    Love your daily posts and feel quite well informed because of them - but the headlines...

    I hope you're entertainment-style show stays true to your pastoral roots - we don't cave to the glitz of the world, we show them a new standard and way of being through Jesus Christ Our Lord and God the Father Almighty.

    United Steel, a northern firm, bought Lone Star Steel to close it down. Lone Star Steel made superior grade products (specialty pipes)>>My Grandfather, Dolph Abernathy, had the Gift of Prophecy and he told me in l961, I don't understand this Lord. (He did not understand many things but he did tell me as the Lord gave it to him. >>> "There is still iron ore in the hills and valleys of East Texas." He told me many things and he died a few weeks or days later. I was young & I did NOT realize what prophecy was because I been reared and born- again as a southern baptist.>>>It is my thought that we must open up Lone Star again and make our own pipe. Pres. Biden is saying "Buy AMERICAN", but, we are not "MAKING AMERICAN". >>>" THE INFERIOR MADE IN CHINA PIPE" is going through the biggest water AQUAFERS in our Country. I believe the safety of our "WATER SUPPLY" is at great RISK.>>>I do not trust the former KGB officer and the and leader of Russia. It is worthy of note that Franklin Graham met with him in 2015. >>> Perhaps this places us on the Russian pipe potential, however, my theory is to start immediately making superior East Texas Pipe for pipeline. At least it would not contaminate our water supply. >>> I can't go through much more than I have gone through. But, that is my thinking. Bonnie Parvino-----

    Mr. Huckabee,
    Please do the diligent research on this Keystone pipe--It was/ and is a BAD idea--it promotes "tar sands" flowing south to the US--that crap is toxic, caustic, and cannot be environmentally made benign--the infrastructure to process this garbage is monumental, and is NOT a proven technology.
    Biden may have stopped this for political reasons--but he got it right just by accident--Please do the research before you jump into the fray--
    Gary

    The Big Wheel of Random Outrage - super chuckle time. Guess these "Flakes" were NEVER introduced to the Bible or Religion of any kind. Their ignorance is becoming a bore already. This brain dead idiots must not have any Grandparents to teach them GOD CREATED THE EARTH, THE MOON, THE STARS AND MAN AND WOMAN TO TAKE CARE OF HIS BELOVED ANIMAL PETS. FROM 1 MAN AND 1 WOMAN , no matter how you look at it, male and female, PERIOD. I feel sorry for these brain dead people, they've never known the joy of being a Mom and a Father. I thank God I did and do not regret a minute of my love for HIM and the joy HE HAS given me.

    Why does none of this surprise me. The Senile president's handlers can always blame Trump for everything to keep the left wing deplorables anxious and frightened.
    What will happen when Iran and it's proxies start sinking oil tankers vis " mysterious explosions?" How many will vanish completely. High seas piracy pays off well.
    As far as the Republican Party goes it has done all but sign it's obituary with it's takeover by Romney, Crenshaw, and the other " slick Willies" likely paid off by their Marxist handlers.
    Sounds like it's time for another "Boston tea Party!" Also another Reformation. As Luther so eloquently stated, " the Church reformed, and always reforming"
