World War III is well underway, both conventional wars, as in NATO versus Russia via Ukraine, and the US playing both sides of a battle between Israel and Iran and their proxies. There is also a psychological war underway.
This is the war against the First Amendment in America and the longstanding Western concept of freedom of speech in many other countries. Misinformation and disinformation are the new enemies, concepts known only in the eyes of the beholder.
One man’s disinformation is another man’s speaking truth to power. Who is the referee? We, the people, or the administrative state?

This is a multifaceted war, including all things COVID, vaccinations, election integrity, crime statistics, illegal immigration, and the Earth’s climate. I want to focus on climate change, once known as global warming.

Climate warriors insist the planet’s climate is changing. No one will argue that. We have had ice ages burying the upper Midwest under a mile-thick sheet of ice, with the planet cooling enough to create these massive glaciers, followed by subsequent warming and melting.
Palm trees and camels, now dotting the hot equatorial regions of the planet, once grew and lived in the ice-free Arctic. This was millions of years ago, long before airplanes, air conditioners, and masculine charcoal grills.
Millions of years ago, there was no “man” to create man-made climate change. In fact, the modern form of humans appeared only 200,000 years ago. Yet the climate has been changing long before that.
Perhaps the Earth’s climate is a bit more complicated than the predetermined outcome climate models used today suggest.
Where are the fact-checkers? Why are only a few challenging climate dogmas?
Now we are treated to “hottest day” stories during our Indian summer. Please spare me accusations of racism for using the word “Indian,” which is now verboten in professional sports. Britannica and Wikipedia both describe Indian summer.
The Denver Post breathlessly exclaims, “Mile High City ties the 132-year-old high-temperature record.” Big deal. A 132-year-old record in golf or baseball might be noteworthy, but the Earth is 4.5 billion years old.
Does the Denver Post know if there was a warmer late September day in Denver in the 1700s? Or the 700s? Or 2700 BC? Or 27 million BC?
The Denver Post said the same about September, “Record-breaking heat continues after hottest September ever.” Ever? The data goes back to 1872. What if 1772, 772, or 772 BC were hotter? With a 4.5-billion-year time frame, 152 years hardly qualifies as “ever.”
When describing planetary phenomena, a much longer time frame measurement is needed. In the Earth’s history, 132 years is but a blink of an eye.
