Thanks to the Trump Administration, I’ve had a nearly two-year break, with a few exceptions, from exploring radical climate cult stupidity. Remarking on their hijinks could fill a few volumes, but aside from some odd bits about Trump and his EPA sending them into fits, there hasn’t been much to talk about. The midterms have put wing-nut environmental catastrophism back on the table, in time for Thanksgiving.
No, they aren’t in power yet, but their useful idiots are feeling more emboldened, and few, if any, of the Demviornmentalists will ignore the opportunity. A happy mistake for the 2028 elections, but a potentially costly one if you lack hurdles to prevent it before then.
New Hampshire only has two. A Semi-Republican governor and one seat in the State Senate to prevent veto overrides, assuming they show up and are actually not another spineless Rino shill looking to make friends with the second most destructive force to liberty in the Granite State, and the nation.
That’d be the Democratic Party.
The first is not the DSA; it’s radical Islam, but both are intent on taking over the Dem Party to make it the biggest collective threat to America, women, liberty, and human flourishing.
Quick aside. Islam doesn’t care about women’s rights, and it doesn’t care about climate change either, so keep that prickly truth in your pocket.
Affordability.
Nothing about the climate cults’ agenda or objectives comes anywhere near the notion of affordability. They are polar opposites, and that’s pulling a tackle against the left’s affordability defense that allows you to run deep into Democrat territory.
Don’t miss the opportunity.

So-called green energy legislation from wind and solar mandates, net metering rate hikes, carbon, or any sort of emissions tax makes everything cost more. The state will tax you to fund subsidies for things that make electricity cost more, so you pay upfront and then repeatedly, as that meddling drives up the cost of business, which drives up the cost of goods and services, while also driving up the operating cost of the government that will tax you further to offset the price hike it mandated by law.
It is the Left’s Four Horsemen of the unaffordability apocalypse. Subsidies, electric/energy costs, goods/services, cost of government.
And none of it is even green. Most of these solutions are as dirty or dirtier, and a lot of them offshore the emissions, which is just a shell game everyone but the political class and their energy partners loses.
Lacking hurdles, or having few, will require you to do more or most of the heavy lifting. Find the expected so-called environmental legislation or action, and that may include demands from NGOs and well-funded street-action activists. Target the bills or demands, and frame opposition around affordability.
Blue States have already instituted much or most of what will be proposed, and the data paints the picture. Any elected official who supports any of that should be concerned and forced to explain the contradiction.
Don’t let them off the hook. Write op-eds for local papers, post them on local Facebook forums, and send them to whoever you’ve got in your state with reach across either podcastistan or independent print media. In New Hampshire, you’ve got limited options, but we’re one of them.
Find yours and start looking. Find the bills or the comments and ask the question. What about affordability? This isn’t affordable; it’s actually impractical, and depending on the move, impossible.
