Nulla Ecclesia

Amici, Americani, Compatriotae,

I have not attended church for the past several weeks. I am disgusted with Pope Francis, the Argentinian Marxist Peronist. I am equally disgusted with Novus Ordo Masses being Protestantized. Further, I have attended a few Protestant services, but they are all invalid and invariably some heretical teaching is issued from the pulpit. And there are no Eastern Orthodox churches near where I live. And I can't go back to the Orthodox Anglican Church - too much bad history.

I am just disgusted and depressed. There is nowhere to go.

Auctoritas Presidentialis Exsecutiva de Indepentia Energiae

President Trump

Amici, Americani, et Compatriotae,

On March 28, 2017 President Donald Trump issued a "Presidential Executive Order on Promoting Energy Independence and Economic Growth." The intent of this order are to reduce or eliminate entirely those regulations which provide no objective public good but which serve to constrict the supply of low cost energy to the public. This order states in part:

(b) It is further in the national interest to ensure that the Nation's electricity is affordable, reliable, safe, secure, and clean, and that it can be produced from coal, natural gas, nuclear material, flowing water, and other domestic sources, including renewable sources.

Sec. 2. Immediate Review of All Agency Actions that Potentially Burden the Safe, Efficient Development of Domestic Energy Resources. (a) The heads of agencies shall review all existing regulations, orders, guidance documents, policies, and any other similar agency actions (collectively, agency actions) that potentially burden the development or use of domestically produced energy resources, with particular attention to oil, natural gas, coal, and nuclear energy resources. Such review shall not include agency actions that are mandated by law, necessary for the public interest, and consistent with the policy set forth in section 1 of this order.

One would hope that this would do some good in removing the excessive regulatory burden on nuclear energy which for 40 years has been exacerbated by the US NRC giving acquiescence to every precautionary principle proposal of the liberal progressive feminist left. For decades the Marxist left has opposed nuclear energy tooth and nail, and that opposition has led to the ascendancy of natural gas. Now the Marxist left has a new cause - anthropogenic global warming from burning fossil fuel. Not for one minute do I believe they will change their tactics in demanding a return to a 19th century style of life where without electricity the life saving products of modern technology cannot exist: air conditioning, refrigeration, flowing water, sewage cleanup, night-time lighting, etc. It is time to smash the lie that is liberalism back into the sewer of refuse from which it came crawling out.
