Leftists Introduce ‘CLIMATE MURDER’ Charges to Try to Terminate the Oil Industry & Force Automobile Manufacturers to go All Electric
If shutting down oil pipelines, banning fracking and punishing automobile manufacturers for their “carbon footprint” wasn’t enough, the left-wing climate change activists are now looking to use their hysterical conjecture and authoritarian climate lawfare to end the oil industry as we know it and make Americans dependent on an electric vehicle grid.
“Climate murder” charges are coming
To accomplish this, left-wing climate activists (who believe the world is ending if we don’t stop carbon emissions) are introducing a new concept called “CLIMATE MURDER.” Under this authoritarian new rule, oil companies can be accused of second-degree murder when temperatures rise in the summer, leading to inevitable heat-related deaths.
If accepted as precedent, the same “climate murder” conjecture can apply to deaths that result from other natural weather phenomenon such as tornadoes, earthquakes, lightning, flash-flooding, wildfires and hurricanes.
It’s typical leftist logic. It’s no different than when Democrats blame law-abiding gun owners for the heinous acts of school shooters. It’s no different than blaming guns for acts committed by individuals with criminal intent. It’s no different than new gun laws that restrict the freedoms of people who did not commit the crime. Leftists have repeatedly said they want to prosecute the National Rifle Association for criminal acts that they do not commit.
Of course, the hysterical left never calls for justice when a pharmaceutical product is directly linked to a person’s death. Instead, the Democrats mandate that people take poison, and believe they will never be held accountable for forcing people to take shots that injure and kill people.
Prosecutors are looking to blame heat waves on oil companies and make them responsible for deaths
Former federal prosecutor Cindy Cho was one of the first to advocate for second-degree murder prosecutions against major fossil fuel companies. Her outlandish opinion comes in response to the deadly heat wave that ravaged Maricopa County, Arizona, in July 2023, claiming the lives of 403 residents.
The premise of Cho’s argument is chillingly straightforward: Big Oil, alongside other fossil fuel giants, knowingly contributed to the atmospheric carbon buildup that has intensified global temperatures, thereby directly contributing to extreme weather events like the Arizona heat wave. This, she contends, amounts to culpable recklessness akin to second-degree murder under the law.
If these prosecutors get their way, they will be able to breakup the entire energy infrastructure, sending oil executives to prison, levying fines that will make it all but impossible to continue drilling and providing affordable gas and diesel. Of course, this will absolutely collapse our economy and destroy American civilization, leaving tens of millions of families unable to afford food and transportation.
Public Citizen released a memo detailing the legal foundations for such prosecutions. The memo claims that prosecuting fossil fuel companies for climate-related deaths is not only morally justified but also legally feasible. They urge local prosecutors to initiate criminal investigations into these corporations’ roles in climate-related fatalities.
Bill McKibben, a prominent climate activist, added fuel to the fire, stating, “What’s happened to the climate is a crime.” McKibben argues that fossil fuel companies, despite clear warnings from the scientific community, continued to exacerbate climate change unabatedly, resulting in a mounting death toll and shattered futures. In the medical community, there are talks of adding “climate change” to death certificates. One study blames a certain level of human breathing for generating enough carbon emissions to kill someone.
However, not everyone shares these outlandish, hysterical perspectives on weather, temperature and death. Marc Morano of Climate Depot dismissed these calls for prosecution as sensationalism, labeling them part of a broader agenda to merge public health concerns with climate change narratives. Morano contends that attributing “climate homicide” to fossil fuel companies overlooks the broader context of human adaptation to climate variability, citing statistics purportedly showing a decline in climate-related deaths since 1920, thanks in part to technological advancements fueled by fossil fuels.
Ukrainian Neo-Nazi Mocks Auschwitz Victims
Social media users have called out a member of Ukraine’s 3rd Assault Brigade, which includes fighters from the reformed neo-Nazi Azov Regiment, over several posts that appear to mock those who were killed at the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp.
In a series of posts on Instagram, Nikita Miroschenko, a member of the brigade, shared photos and reels of him paying a visit to the death camp in Poland several weeks ago. One of the reels showed the gates of Auschwitz with the infamous Nazi slogan “Arbeit macht frei” with German march music playing in the background. The post was accompanied by a caption reading: “We commemorated the memory, but there is one nuance.”
A second reel showed Miroschenko’s girlfriend Anastasia Korshykova, a member of the same brigade, standing in front of the death camp. This image was juxtaposed with a meme known as “Disaster Girl,” featuring a girl staring at the camera as a house burns behind her. The clip was accompanied by the song ‘Baby on Fire’ by the South African hip-hop group Die Antwoor.

Miroschenko was also pictured at Auschwitz wearing a T-shirt that read: “Where we are, there is no place for anyone else” – a phrase attributed to Nazi leader Adolf Hitler.
The flurry of posts, which appeared to mock the memory of the more than a million Jews, Poles, Roma, and Soviet prisoners of war who were killed at the camp, sparked a firestorm on social media. Moss Robeson, a self-described researcher of Ukrainian fascism, noted that “it’s unreal how Meta has let Ukrainian Nazis fester while it censors Palestinians and anti-Zionist voices in the name of ‘anti-Semitism’.”

Jake Hanrahan described one of Miroschenko’s posts as “disgusting,”while Daniel Mayakovsky remarked that “if you oppose Israel’s genocide in Gaza, you are an anti-Semite according to the Western media… but if you go to Auschwitz with a T-shirt quoting Hitler to gloat about killing Jews, then Europe and the US send you weapons.”
Social media users also highlighted another image of Miroschenko smiling against the backdrop of a quote by another Nazi leader Herman Goring, which read: “Marriage[s] between Jews and subjects of the state of German or related blood are forbidden.” Mayakovsky denounced the image, suggesting that the Ukrainian soldier had “visited Auschwitz to enjoy what Hitler did.” “They are sick,” he added.
Miroschenko’s controversial posts came to public attention as his brigade announced a tour of several EU countries to seek more support in the fight against Russia. Moscow has long warned about neo-Nazi ideology flourishing in Ukraine, saying that the “denazification” of its neighbor was one of the key goals of the ongoing military campaign.
House GOP says Manhattan DA, Judge Merchan Violated Trump’s Constitutional and Legal Rights
Republicans in the House Judiciary Committee, led by Chairman Jim Jordan, released a report this week claiming that both the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office and New York Judge Juan Merchan violated the constitutional and legal rights of Donald Trump.
Entitled “Lawfare: How the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office and a New York State Judge Violated the Constitutional and Legal Rights of President Donald J. Trump,” the report is based on extensive investigations by the Committee and the Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government that peg Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg and Judge Merchan as acting in violation of the law with their pursuit of Trump.
After scrutinizing the 34-count criminal indictment against Trump, announced on April 4, 2023, investigators made the following discoveries about the legal and procedural defects in Bragg’s prosecution of Trump:
1) Bragg presented an unprecedented and unconstitutional theory of criminal liability that did not require jury unanimity on each element of the criminal offenses.
2) Bragg overreached into federal jurisdiction by prosecuting alleged violations of federal campaign finance laws, reserved strictly for federal authorities, with no intervention from the Biden regime to uphold federal interests.
As for Judge Merchan, the report identified the following anomalies with the way he handled Trump:
1) Merchan failed to recuse himself despite clear political bias.
2) Merchan imposed an unconstitutional gag order on Trump during the trial.
3) Merchan allowed admission of inadmissible, irrelevant and prejudicial testimony against Trump.
4) Merchan refused to allow former Federal Election Commission (FEC) Chairman Bradley Smith to testify regarding the many complexities of the Federal Election Campaign Act.
The full interim staff report is available for viewing at this link.
(Related: If Trump is reelected this fall, he says he will prosecute everyone involved in stealing the last election from him with voter fraud.)
Bragg and Merchan violated their oaths
Bragg, Merchan and the rest of the anti-Trump crusaders who participated in this witch hunt acted well outside the bounds of the law. Keep in mind that both Bragg and Merchan swore an oath of office to uphold the Constitution, which they failed to do in the Trump case.
“The findings emphasize that both Bragg and Merchan, who took oaths to support the U.S. Constitution and the New York State Constitution, deviated from their constitutional responsibilities in their pursuit of Trump’s indictment and conviction,” reports Your News.
“Given the legal and constitutional errors cited in the indictment and trial, the report suggests that an honest review of the facts and law by appellate courts could lead to the conviction being vacated and the indictment dismissed with prejudice. This, according to the report, would help restore public trust in the American justice system. The Committee and Select Subcommittee will continue to oversee and address the broader implications of such politically motivated legal actions.”
In the comments, someone outraged about the revelations noted that you know you are “in a swamp full of alligators” when you have local DAs, in this case Bragg, deciding federal law.
“Now something must be done about this miscarriage of justice instead of just talking about it,” wrote another.
“That judge should be disbarred and put in jail for his corruption,” said someone else, adding that there are probably going to be a whole lot of people who retire before Trump is inevitably reelected back to the White House this fall.
“I want to see that judge sitting in prison,” said another. “Then put him in contempt-of-court solitary for a few weeks when he inevitably thinks he is the legalest person in the room.”

J.D Vance on Tech and the Internet
On Monday, Ohio Senator J.D. Vance was announced by President Donald Trump as his vice-presidential candidate for his 2024 campaign. This decision comes as Trump seeks to win back the presidency from President Joe Biden.
Vance, a figure that has seamlessly transitioned from the world of venture capitalism to the halls of US politics, brings a unique perspective to the ongoing debates surrounding technology and antitrust legislation. As a former venture capitalist and current Ohio Senator, Vance’s views are poised to significantly influence policy making in an era where tech giants face increasing scrutiny under antitrust laws.
This significant leap in Vance’s career could trace its origins to the early support of Peter Thiel, a major figure in Silicon Valley known for co-founding PayPal and the defense contractor Palantir, and for his connections with Elon Musk.
Following a brief tenure at a corporate law firm, Vance relocated to San Francisco to join Mithril Capital, a tech fund owned by Thiel, all while penning his memoir, “Hillbilly Elegy.” His venture into the financial world of technology deepened when he launched his own venture capital firm in Ohio, supported heavily by Thiel. It wasn’t long before political ambitions surfaced, with Thiel’s encouragement spurring Vance’s senate candidacy by 2021.
Trump’s selection of Vance was announced via Truth Social, where he commended Vance for his notable career in technology and finance.
With Vance’s rise to prominence, particularly following his endorsement as former President Trump’s running mate, understanding his approach to these tech issues is more important than ever.
Vance’s admiration for Federal Trade Commission Chair Lina Khan’s expansive view of US antitrust law was evident, suggesting potential policy directions in a new Trump administration.
Vance’s support of Khan highlights a split within the conservative movement, balancing a desire to reduce regulation with utilizing antitrust laws to address dominance, particularly in the tech sector. He believes these laws should not only focus on consumer prices but also on a broader competitive landscape. This perspective aligns him with other Republicans such as Senator Josh Hawley and Representative Matt Gaetz, who share this broader interpretation of antitrust objectives when it comes to the power of Big Tech.
At a Washington event in February, Vance articulated this stance on Khan: “She recognized there has to be a broader understanding of how we think about competition in the marketplace.”
Vance also said: “The fundamental question to me is, how do we build a competitive marketplace that is pro-innovation, pro-competition, that allows consumers to have the right choices and isn’t just so obsessed on pricing power within the market that it sort of ignores all the other things that really matter?”
His position indicates a readiness to challenge major tech companies, which is consistent with the antitrust actions seen during Trump’s first term. Under Trump’s presidency, the FTC and Department of Justice pursued antitrust investigations against major firms like Meta, Amazon, Apple, and Google, all of which faced lawsuits over alleged antitrust violations.
Vance has been vocal about his views on Big Tech, advocating for significant actions such as breaking up Google, as evidenced by his tweet in February criticizing the company’s monopolistic control over information.
“Long overdue, but it’s time to break Google up,” Vance posted, lamenting that “monopolistic control of information in our society resides with an explicitly progressive technology company.”
“I think that Google and Facebook have really distorted our political process, and I think that a lot of my friends on the left would agree with me, but they might disagree with me directionally about how to fix that problem,” Vance said.
Vance criticized the Biden administration’s collaboration with Big Tech to censor Americans, arguing that this partnership stifled necessary debates, particularly regarding the impact of school closures on children’s mental health and socialization.
During a Senate Republican press conference, Vance highlighted the human costs of such censorship, noting increases in depression among children who were unable to attend school and interact with peers. He emphasized the broader implications for democracy, questioning whether the real threat comes from the electorate’s potential voting preferences or from tech companies with ties to foreign interests collaborating with government agencies like the FBI to limit free speech. Vance asserted the importance of preserving public discourse on social media, which he described as the modern “town square” where critical national debates occur.
Senator Vance expressed concerns about a proposed Irish legislation, the Criminal Justice (Incitement to Violence or Hatred and Hate Offences) Bill 2022, in a letter to Irish Ambassador Geraldine Byrne Nason. Noting its impact on US tech companies, Vance criticized the bill for its vague prohibitions which he fears could suppress vital public debates, especially on sensitive issues. He highlighted that the legislation includes penalties for actions in public that could incite hatred, with potential impacts on discussions around immigration and gender definitions. Vance warned that the fear of prosecution under such ambiguous laws might lead citizens to self-censor, thereby undermining the rich tradition of free speech in Ireland and elsewhere.
Senator Vance has expressed skepticism for strong regulations against AI technology, arguing that such legislation would give more power to Big Tech incumbents.
“…Very often CEOs, especially of larger technology companies that I think already have advantageous positions in AI, will come and talk about the terrible safety dangers of this new technology and how Congress needs to jump up and regulate as quickly as possible. And I can’t help but worry that if we do something under duress from the current incumbents, it’s going to be to the advantage of those incumbents and not to the advantage of the American consumer,” Vance said during a Senate hearing last week.
President Trump’s vice-presidential pick brings a crucial focus on US tech policy and antitrust issues. Vance’s blend of conservative values and progressive views on corporate dominance and free speech positions him uniquely within the Republican party but it’s yet to be seen how his influence on Trump’s campaign and policy direction, especially regarding technology and censorship, will be important in their bid to reclaim the White House.
