Joe Court-Pack
So, yes, the childish presidential debate was painful to watch. But this country can withstand buffoon-like behavior from politicians. But court-packing, an open assault on the independence and legitimacy of the Supreme Court that Biden keeps refusing to condemn, threatens the long-term stability of our nation.
And, of course, no answer from Dementia Joe on whether he would support ending the filibuster. Instead, the big takeaway from last night's debate appears to be President Trump not explicitly condemning white supremacists. I'm wondering when any Democrat will be asked to denounce black militant groups.
More from Scott Johnson:
Biden was still pushing the Russia hoax and asserting that Antifa is just a beautiful idea. We are apparently to be spared Biden’s views on the Democrats’ plans to pack the Supreme Court and end the filibuster. Unbelievable.
"Green" Energy Means Fossil Fuels Forever
There were rolling blackouts in California last month on two consecutive days. The reason for the blackouts wasn’t a mystery. There was a heatwave across the region and as the sun went down and California’s solar generation started to fade, the California Independent System Operator (Cal ISO) simply couldn’t find enough power from other sources to meet the demand. The blackouts were ordered to prevent the entire grid from entering a brownout.
Several outlets including NPR and the Wall Street Journal made the point that California’s push for green energy was partly responsible for the situation. In fact, as the LA Times pointed out, the California Public Utilities Commission had been warning about this exact scenario since last year.

Steven Hayward:
You too can have a decrepit grid like this when you pay twice the national average for electricity that doesn’t work when you need it.
What will California do when the surrounding states go as "green" as they have? Yay, unreliable, intermittent energy!
