New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez likened the allegedly changing climate to World War II on Monday and suggested that the planet has only about a dozen years left before it will be destroyed by human activity — but not everybody is buying what she’s selling.
Asked for a response to Ocasio-Cortez’s alarmist rhetoric, White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders dismissed it all with a laugh, saying the Trump administration will place their faith in a “higher power” than the freshman member of Congress when it comes to planetary survival.
Ocasio-Cortez: The sky is falling!
Ocasio-Cortez spoke at an event Monday honoring the late Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr.
She touched on a number of topics, including what she characterized as an impending catastrophe of man-made climate change that is bound to strike — unless we significantly raise taxes and destroy our nation’s flourishing energy sector.
The congresswoman also compared Americans’ struggle against climate change to that of World War II.
“Millennials and people, you know, Gen-Z, and all these folks that will come after us are looking up and we’re like: ‘The world is [going to] end in 12 years if we don’t address climate change, and your biggest issue is, how are we gonna pay for it?'” she said.
Unsurprisingly, the representative’s bombastic fear-mongering wasn’t taken particularly seriously by too many people, including the Trump White House.
Leave it in God’s hands
During an interview with Fox News host Sean Hannity on Tuesday, Sanders dismissed Ocasio-Cortez’s remarks and implied that the White House would trust in God when it came to such matters — not the socialistic representative from New York City.
Asked for the official White House position, Sanders replied with a chuckle.
“I don’t think we’re going to listen to [Ocasio-Cortez] on much of anything — particularly not on matters we’re [going to] leave in the hands of a much, much higher authority — and certainly, not listen to the freshman congresswoman on when the world may end,” the press secretary said.
“We’re focused on what’s happening in the world right now,” Sanders continued. “We wish that Democrats like herself would engage in that conversation, help us fix some of the current problems we know exist, and work with us to get some things done — particularly on the border, fixing the national and humanitarian crisis.”

“That’s the kind of stuff we’re focused on, not things we’re gonna leave up to the hands of something and someone much more powerful than any of us,” she added.
Looks like the Trump administration won’t be heeding Ocasio-Cortez’s warnings.

Выборы являются основным инструментом формирования органов власти в демократическом
обществе. Сами выборы представляют собой
механизм для избрания кого – либо открытым или тайным голосованием.
Сегодня проведение свободных выборов считается наиболее демократичным вариантом замещения
должностей руководителей
во всех общностях.
Вместо предисловия
Как известно, в сентябре 2021 года в России пройдут выборы
представителей в Госдуму. Возможность быть
избранным получит каждый гражданин, достигший 21 года.
Всего будут избраны 450 депутатов,
половина из них – по одномандатным округам.
Другая половина будет избрана от различных партий,
официально зарегистрированных центральной избирательной комиссией.
Право на участие в выборах получат все
граждане страны, достигшие 18
лет. Само голосование будет тайным.
Никто не вправе принуждать или препятствовать волеизъявлению населения России.
Эксперимент с интригой
Не нужно быть опытным политическим аналитиком, чтобы констатировать
тот факт, что власть в стране захватила одна политическая партия – «Единая Россия».
Для того, чтобы ее победить на выборах, необходимо объединение
всех протестных голосов.
То есть, нужно, чтобы избиратели на каждом участке проголосовали за
самого сильного конкурента кандидата от этой партии.
Именно в этом и заключается смысл проводимого «Фондом борьбы с коррупцией» А.Навального эксперимента, получившего название «Умное голосование» и представленного в 2018 году.
Несмотря на тотальную диктатуру «Единой России», в стране есть определенное количество
регионов, где позиции этой партии не
столь убедительны как кажется.
Таким образом, «Умное голосование» Навального способно провести в законодательные органы
определенное количество кандидатов от
других партий, тем самым разрушив гегемонию пропутинской
«Единой России».
Сложившаяся на сегодняшний день ситуация на электоральном поле целиком
и полностью устраивает пропрезидентскую партию.
Дело в том, что ее руководители уверены в безоговорочной победе
своей политической силы. Одновременно нынешняя власть демонстрирует, что
в стране наличествует политическая конкуренция
– признак демократии.
Однако, не все столь радужно, как хотелось бы.
Всем понятно, что как только кто
– нибудь захочет посягнуть на лидерство «Единой России»,
как сразу же будут применены
все средства для недопущения такого развития событий.
Конечно, это не означает, что в оппозиционных партиях нет людей, хотящих
выиграть у провластной партии. Такие люди есть,
просто они находятся в меньшинстве.
Однозначно, «Единую Россию» полностью
устраивают партии, которые:
• обладают достаточно большим политическим весом и желающие договориться;
• стойко придерживаются своих принципов, но имеют недостаточную электоральную поддержку.
Для правящей партии важно одно – чтобы
они были далеко позади нее.
Алексей Навальный имеет одно коренное отличие от так называемой системной оппозиции
– он хочет победить и имеет для этого возможности.
Именно поэтому против него развязана оголтелая пропаганда
со стороны власти. Но рейтинги показывают, что А.Навальный находится в группе возможных претендентов на президентское кресло.
«Умное голосование» 2021 года – еще одна возможность
показать власть имущим, что люди имеют свое мнение
и готовы его высказать в ходе голосования.
И хотя считается, что эксперимент от А.Навального способен всего лишь ненамного сократить отставание
второго кандидата от представителя «Единой России», это не является аксиомой.
В стране есть несколько регионов, где позиции провластной партии не
столь уж и сильны. Именно в них есть реальная возможность проведения вторых туров, исход которых трудно предопределить.
Принять участие в эксперименте может каждый желающий.
Для этого необходимо зайти на сайт «Умного голосования» и пройти процедуру регистрации.
Регистрация необходима, так как она дает возможность понять, в каком избирательном округе
проживает избиратель. После этого на указанную электронную
почту поступит рекомендация с фамилией кандидата,
способного победить «единоросса» в
ходе проведения голосования.
Кроме того, сайт предоставляет возможность стать членом
команды наблюдателей, чтобы защитить результат выборов.
Также администрация сайта обновила приложение «Навальный», добавив в
него функции «Умного голосования».
С их помощью избиратель сможет узнать номер своего
участка, быть в курсе последних новостей, а также давать рекомендации родственникам и друзьям по выбору самых сильных оппозиционных кандидатов на их участках.

The term “bitcoin” is stemmed from the software application which operates on the
bitcoin network. The network was introduced in 2021 and the software makes it
possible for customers to perform on-line settlements with money.
The bitcoin computer system code is encrypted as well as prevents 3rd events
or other individuals from accessing it. Essentially, when you utilize a site
with the bitcoin software, all you are doing is providing details to that site,
which internet site remains in turn paid by some anonymous entity called a “bitcoin web server.” The web server holds the bitcoin details and all
deals made in between the server as well as the website are encrypted.
The bitcoins work a lot like the Bean Bag as explained by Andy Gelb, “The factor that they don’t desire anybody in the means is that they have to pay a big sum of money to anybody who tries to change the equilibriums, get rid of the equilibriums or add brand-new equilibriums. By removing this computer power from the formula, the government (the federal government is run by a lot of politicians) and large financial organizations are at threat of going insolvent. The issue is that the bitcoin system makes it very hard to change the computer power, and also as a result it is practically difficult to influence any fraudulent purchases.
Among the most intriguing features of the bitcoin system is that it runs totally beyond the jurisdiction of the United States federal government. It functions only according to the principles of peer-to-peer borrowing, which implies that each user can offer a specific quantity of cash to another individual without stressing over the legislations of the financial institution or of the government. While it may not be a completely identified money yet, someday it could create a considerable component of the monetary system of the whole world.
