NOTE: The following article is satire, not a statement of fact. Treat it as such.
Speaking at a recent event about “climate change” and “environmental justice,” Vice President Kamala Harris did her usual thing and went on the warpath against…using real words or sentence structures. Instead she rambled about nonsense before rambling about incoherent nonsense.
It began with the usual sort of nonsense, with Kamala talking about Baltimore in positive terms, which is rarer than her completing a sentence. She said:
“So I stand here before you, as Vice President of the United States, proud to make the announcements we are making today, which are historic. And I am very clear: I stand here on the shoulders of people like Vernice — and her decades of work and leadership in the fight for environmental justice. So, it is good to be back in Baltimore. You know, I’m from Oakland. Baltimore is like home to me.
“And it is, of course, wonderful to be here with my friend, with my colleague, the EPA Administrator, Michael Regan, who I have to tell you — because he and I have been working very closely, like I said, traveling around the country — he is extraordinary. Vernice talked about it, and you can see when he talks: He is truly committed, and he is bold and he is relentless, and he is tireless, and he is ambitious about the rights and the responsibilities that we have to respond to the needs of the American people.”
Continuing, she got more to the ostensible point of the speech, climate change, and said, “And we have seen, around our country, where communities have been choked by drought, have been washed out by floods, and decimated by hurricanes. Here in Baltimore, you have seen your skies darkened by wildfire smoke. And you have seen the waters of the Chesapeake Bay rise, threatening homes and businesses that have stood for generations. It is clear that the clock is not only ticking, it is banging. And we must act.”
That’s when she got to the fully incoherent part of her speech, saying, “And, well, what are we going to do, if when we act we do act? We are going…ummmm, we are going to act against pollution. Because pollution is bad. Ummm, well, what we in the, in the White House, umm, what we think now that we have started about to think about thinking, is that emissions are bad and electricity is good. Because when you turn on a car, there are emissions. You could die in the garage from them. But electricity is good. Because when I turn on my toaster, there are no emissions. Unless the bagel burns. But, still, that’s not that many. It’s the same with electric cars, which is why they don’t have an exhaust pipe.”
Ignored in Kamala’s ramble was that the electricity which is produced for EVs produces emissions. Particularly when the grid is overstressed…by EVs…and so older, coal-burning plants need to be turned on.
