In this explosive episode, we cover the chaos unfolding at ICE facilities across the U.S., from shootings and violent protests to left-wing political interference. We break down Trump's immigration strategy, the massive deportations already underway, and why federal agents are facing unprecedented threats while Democrats appear to turn a blind eye. We also dive into Trump's historic UN speech exposing the failures of green energy policies, highlighting how poorly conceived renewable projects are crippling Western industry while empowering China. From California's looming energy crisis to the broader implications of controlling energy and food, this episode examines the intersection of immigration, political power, and energy policy.

#Trump #UNSpeech #StarmerOut #Immigration #GreenEnergy #Borders #JonGauntLive  Donald Trump just delivered a blistering one-hour speech at the UN, attacking its values, blasting Europe over terrorism, immigration, and green energy, and calling out weak leadership.  He slammed uncontrolled immigration, warned that green energy policies are wrecking Europe, and reignited his feud with London Mayor Sadiq Khan. “I look at London where they have a terrible Mayor and they want SHARIA LAW.”  Trump declared: “Every sovereign nation must have the right to control its own borders.” Meanwhile, Keir Starmer was nowhere to be seen—issuing only a vague statement about “unity over grievance” and “Britain's best days ahead.”  Which vision of leadership do you prefer?  Join Jon Gaunt live at 6:30 pm tonight for reaction and debate.  Starmerout, Trump UN speech 2025, Trump nukes the UN, Trump green energy, Trump immigration, Trump vs UN, Trump speech highlights, Trump Europe terrorism, Starmer response Trump, Jon Gaunt live, Trump border control, Trump vs Sadiq Khan #StarmerOut #Trump #UNSpeech #Immigration #GreenEnergy #UKPolitics #Trump #UNSpeech #Immigration #GreenEnergy #Borders #Starmer #JonGauntLive #Politics #Europe #BreakingNews This video is a politics blog and social commentary by award winning talk radio star, Jon Gaunt

Budget 2026 must include tax measures to support green energy innovators, according to Hydrogen Ireland. With less than four weeks to go until October 7th, the organisation has identified supportive fiscal frameworks as crucial elements of the drive to promote emerging opportunities. CEO of Hydrogen Ireland, Paul McCormack, says the right framework of technologies and personnel with the right skillsets must be in place - and that requires support for funding now: "With the right approach, hydrogen projects could be having an impact on Ireland's energy landscape in three to five years. To achieve that, our hydrogen economy needs to be underpinned by a progressive tax strategy - one that rewards innovation, de-risks investment, and aligns fiscal tools with our climate ambition. We engage with dozens of investors and international organisations that all recognise Ireland's potential as the epicentre of the hydrogen revolution. What we need is the right support framework to convince them to invest here. We need to provide tax reliefs that will help convince people that Ireland is ready to lead the way towards a just transition, with hydrogen as a central element on that journey". Paul McCormack's comments follow the Taoiseach's comments in a letter to the EC President Ursula von der Leyen, expressing concerns about the impact of rising energy costs on semiconductor chipmakers, and calling for 'interim measures' to be taken to address the situation. CEO of Hydrogen Ireland Paul McCormack welcomed Taoiseach Micheál Martin's decision to raise the issue directly with Ms von der Leyen and sees the move as 'a strategic inflection point': "If Europe wants to lead in high tech, semiconductors, big data and AI, it must also lead in clean, affordable energy. That means coupling hydrogen innovation, grid reform, and industrial resilience into one cohesive vision. "Thanks to progress made to date, Ireland is in a prime position to harness the full potential of green hydrogen. We're calling on the government to create the kind of fiscal environment that will capitalise on the work done so far and allow innovators the space to accelerate progress towards a cleaner energy future for ourselves and our European neighbours". The global hydrogen dialogue will take centre stage at the World Hydrogen Technologies Convention in Dublin from October 21 - 23. Hosted by Hydrogen Ireland, WHTC is one of the best-known conventions in the fields of hydrogen energy and fuel cell technology. Speakers will include Minister of State at the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine Timmy Dooley TD, Tony O'Reilly, Founder and CEO of dCarbonX and President of the International Association for Hydrogen Energy, Dr Ayfer Verizoglu. Sponsors include ESB, Gas Networks Ireland and the Japan Atomic Energy Agency.

What's interesting is that violent crime is WAY down in places like Chicago and Baltimore. Not great, but still way down. I was 100% in favor of troops to clean up DC because it's our nation's capital and I think that matters, plus Trump had the authority to take action there. He does not have the same authority in other cities, but he seems to be pushing to put the National Guard there anyway.

What does it take to scale the clean energy transition—both at the bleeding edge of new technology and in the nuts-and-bolts of infrastructure?Today's episode dives into the nuanced world of climate finance and infrastructure with Brendan Bell, Chief Operating Officer and Partner at Aligned Climate Capital. Unlike most investors who play in either venture or infrastructure, Align straddles both worlds, backing early-stage companies while also owning and operating clean energy assets.Brendan shares his unusual path from the Sierra Club to the U.S. Senate, the Department of Energy's Loan Programs Office, and now into the private sector. Along the way, he offers candid insights into what makes a strong infrastructure investment, how venture-backed technologies eventually scale into bankable assets, and why understanding both sides of the capital stack is critical to accelerating the clean energy transition.This is a masterclass on the interplay between policy, venture innovation, and hard infrastructure. If you've ever wondered how moonshot technologies meet the realities of capital markets and project finance, this conversation will give you the inside view.

In the month of April, China installed more solar power than Australia ever has. China is also now home to half of the world's wind power and half of the world's electric cars.Despite this, China remains the world's biggest emitter of greenhouse gases.So, is it a climate hero or villain and how has the Chinese Communist Party managed to roll out green energy tech so quickly?Today, climate reporter Jo Lauder on why China is becoming the world's first ‘electrostate'. Featured: Jo Lauder, ABC climate reporter

Justin sat down with Steve Goreham, author of Green Breakdown, to expose what he calls the “crap plan”—Grand Rapids' new Climate Action and Adaptation Plan. While city leaders push lofty goals of cutting emissions 63% by 2030 and 100% by 2050, Goreham warns the plan won't move the needle on global climate but will jack up Michigan's already sky-high energy prices. They broke down how wind and solar mandates strain taxpayers, why Michigan's electricity costs have surged nearly 60% since 2008, and how AI data centers are set to fuel massive new demand—driven not by “green” energy, but natural gas and a renewed push for nuclear power. From restarting plants like Palisades to exploring modular nuclear reactors, Goreham argues the real future is reliable, affordable energy—not government-forced green schemes.Get the stories from today's show in THE STACK: https://justinbarclay.comNew gear is here!

Even as efforts to transition Appalachia out of coal receive broad policy support, the fate of the landscape is ultimately driven by incumbent actors used to getting what they want. Dr Lindsay Shade and Dr Karen Rignall discuss their research about how legacies of land ownership frustrate equitable and effective transition strategies. While an "Abundance"  argument suggests that  "the Democratic fetish for legalistic procedure has in so many places, made it impossible to get stuff done," the afterlives of coal provides a stark reminder of the deeper powers that control what happens on the land. Confronting the legacies of landownership may be the only path to meaningful landscape transformation.  Episode Links Dr Lindsay Shade Dr Karen Rignall Shade, L., Schwartzman, G., Rignall, K., Slovinsky, K., & Johnson, J.

Podcast Guest Correction: "At minute 26.41 - 27.55 it is implied that The Nature Conservancy (TNC) acquired all 253,000 acres as a single parcel and that it all passed through Pocahontas Land Company and Heartwood Forestland Fund, and also that The Forestland Group "sold" land to the former. Heartwood Forestland Fund is managed by The Forestland Group and holds land under various subsidiaries. In the three states where TNC brokered land deals for the Cumberland Forest Project, the land is held by various LLC's that TNC controls, all of which purchased land from subsidiaries of either The Forestland Group or Molpus-Woodlands, two different timber investment management organizations (TIMO's). These TIMO's previously bought land and/or timber rights from various coal and natural resource landholding companies in the region, including Pocahontas. As we describe in our paper on p. 8, the trajectory of the land in our case study in East TN is as follows: the land was first consolidated by the 19th century British coal company and land speculation firm "The American Association Ltd," later sold to JM Huber Coal, and then to Molpus-Woodlands, before being acquired by Cumberland Forest LLC, which The Nature Conservancy has a controlling share and manages."
