Chemtrails & Climate Change: Perfect Together? The Tennessee state House of Representatives passed a bill Monday designed to prevent geoengineering, the practice of intentionally modifying the atmosphere to counteract global warming. The bill, which had already passed in the state Senate, covers a variety of technological interventions. They include theoretical ideas about cooling the climate by an approach known as solar radiation modification, as well as more limited practices that affect the weather, like cloud seeding, a technique used to increase rain and snowfall.  Most geoengineering options are theoretical and untested. Federal researchers have taken only a few small steps toward studying their feasibility, and atmospheric scientists say there is no evidence of any large-scale programs. On its face, Tennessee's bill represents an attempt to prevent experimentation with or deployment of such technologies.  However, lawmakers' discussions of the proposal toed a line between fact and fiction, with several suggesting that solar geoengineering projects are already underway and others referring to fears and misunderstandings that appeared to stem from the “chemtrails” conspiracy theory. “This will be my wife's favorite bill of the year. She has worried about this, I bet, 10 years. It's been going on a long, long time,” Republican Sen. Frank Niceley said at a hearing about the bill last month. “If you look up — one day, it'll be clear. The next day they will look like some angels have been playing tic-tac-toe. They're everywhere. I've got pictures on my phone with X's right over my house. For years they denied they were doing anything.”

John Kennedy introduced the subtly named “No Propaganda Act.” If enacted, it would end federal funding for America's public media. He joined an effort by billionaires Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, who are heading up an amorphous cost-cutting advisory group for President-elect Donald Trump and have also suggested that support for public media should be eliminated from the federal budget. Musk's suggestion and Kennedy's bill got little press coverage for an understandable reason: It's nothing new.  This would defund NPR, PBS, their member stations and their primary funding mechanism, the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. Efforts to defund NPR and PBS have been raised by Republicans and successfully batted away by public media defenders with annual regularity for decades.    Source: semafor.com https://twitter.com/WhitlockJason/status/1864729148729553231 https://twitter.com/DonaldJTrumpJr/status/1865155076118937618 BREAKING: Daniel Penny Acquitted — Jury Finds Marine Not Guilty in Jordan Neely Subway Death Case   ​Daniel Penny was found not guilty of criminally negligent homicide in the death of Jordan Neely during an incident on a New York City subway in 2023.​ The jury reached this verdict after more than 24 hours of deliberation...
