bring an all-out war on climate science and policies \u2014 eclipsing even his first-term efforts that brought U.S. climate action to a virtual standstill.

We just hope they are also banding together on election reform to get rid of electronic machines, fix dodgy software, reduce ballot harvesting and teach voters why fraud is not The American Way. Polling effectively shows 13 million voters in the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/joannenova.com.au\/2023\/12\/one-in-five-us-mail-in-voters-admit-to-election-fraud-13-million-dodgy-votes\/\">US would admit casting fraudulent ballots if asked by a pollster<\/a>. One fifth of US voters don\u2019t seem to know that polling is meant to be done in the privacy of a ballot booth, not watched by coercive friends, or handed to middle men\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Climate bullying doesn\u2019t work anymore<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The experts have noticed that Trump is not \u201ctempering\u201d his language. The climate bullies are irrelevant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dana Fisher, director of American University\u2019s Center for Environment, Community and Equity, called the change in tone both notable and dangerous \u2014&nbsp;<strong>showing that Trump is no longer concerned about reaching moderate and independent voters with his approach to climate policy.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>\u201cHe doesn\u2019t feel like he has to temper his language,\u201d<\/strong>&nbsp;Fisher said. \u201cThe rhetoric means that he\u2019s much more likely to empower these efforts and initiatives than when he was concerned about how they would play the last time.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And after 91 indictments, it\u2019s not like anyone would care about being called a climate denier. Indeed, he is probably hoping they\u2019ll do it more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To reassure himself, the Politico writer doesn\u2019t think Trump\u2019s full throated \u201cdenial\u201d will sit well with the voters (boy is he in for a surprise).&nbsp; He quotes the usual mindless apple-pie climate poll, where people are asked if they don\u2019t mind if the government uses other people\u2019s money to solve climate change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Daily Mail asked the voters instead, and found it was a winner:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/news\/article-12953349\/Drill-baby-drill-Americans-wide-margin-Trumps-greenlighting-oil-gas-projects-poll-shows-Bidens-renewable-push-blamed-hurting-security.html\">\u2018Drill, baby, drill.\u2019 Americans by wide margin back Trump\u2019s greenlighting of oil and gas projects<\/a><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>Daily Mail<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Americans by a wide margin endorse President&nbsp;Donald Trump\u2019s pledge to \u2018Drill, baby, drill\u2019 and allow oil and gas schemes on federal lands, despite fears of global warming after 2023\u2019s searing temperatures, our poll shows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A DailyMail.com\/TIPP Poll reveals that 49 percent of US adults support the former president\u2019s pro-fossil fuel policy, while only 40 percent disagree. Another 11 percent said they were not sure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump instead vows to slash US energy and electricity costs by ramping up domestic production of&nbsp;fossil fuels, with tax breaks for producers of oil, gas, and coal, even as scientists warn about man-made global warming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He also wants to scrap much of Biden\u2019s $369 billion&nbsp;Inflation&nbsp;Reduction Act, the largest climate measure in US history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">US oil production broke records last year, and it\u2019s on track to surge to a new high of 13.21 million barrels per day this year,&nbsp;says a forecast from the government\u2019s Energy Information Administration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Steve Milloy, mentioned as a Trump advisor at the top of the Politico article, has written the skeptical&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/junkscience.com\/\">JunkScience.com<\/a>&nbsp;blog for years.
