Larry Correia is a fine writer, and he wrote a piece about the sudden concern for legal processes

on the part of people who didn't give a damn when it was a corrupt FBI and other agencies screwing with people who are conservative, or worse, "Evil Right-Wingers".  I'm going to borrow some of it:

It is so funny (in a pathetic way) FINALLY seeing the liberals I know waking up to the fact that federal agents abuse regular people. Sure, it took attempting to deport illegals to get them to actually notice for the first time ever, but right now I'm seeing them doing this big histrionic freak out, all OMG federal agents came into people's homes and were rude and mean and wrecked stuff and took property even though those people were citizens and hadn't done anything wrong!

And I'm over here like no shit? First time? 😃

Of course right now they think ICE is the only agency that's ever been mean to people, and they don't realize this is NOTHING in the grand scheme of American history. And I figure it could go two ways for here. Either they'll slowly realize this is how dozens of big stupid government agencies routinely treat people (and worse, and get away with it) and they'll slowly stop being liberal and wanting ever increasing amounts of big government meddling in literally everything.

Or (and this one is far more likely) the second the left gets back in power these virtue signaling libs will go back to licking the jack boot and cheering on the government stomping on everybody they don't like.

Yes, at least most of them will.

How close Europe came to a real-life, no bs disaster

Here's the link for the post.

And here's an article at Yahoo Finance:
A reliance on net zero energy left Spain and Portugal vulnerable to the mass blackouts engulfing the region, experts said last night.

In what is believed to be Europe’s largest power cut, tens of millions of people were left without electricity, while flights were grounded, trains halted and whole cities were left without power, internet access or other vital services.

The cause of the initial fault in the region’s electricity grid is still being investigated, and the EU has insisted that there were no indications that it was a cyberattack.

However, energy experts have blamed a heavy reliance on solar and wind farms in Spain for leaving the region’s power grid vulnerable to such a crisis.

A state of emergency was declared in Spain, while in Portugal, water company EPAL said supplies could also be disrupted.

Queues formed at shops of people seeking to purchase emergency supplies like gaslights, generators and batteries.

Energy operators are fighting to restore power in Spain, Portugal and parts of France, and residents are being urged to avoid travel and use mobile phones sparingly.

Must be making a bunch of the Net Zero  morons in Britain and Canada upset that all the peasants are getting information on this.
