Joe Biden has tried to catch up with the Democrat cool kids, by demanding fossil fuel executives should be held accountable for the climate harm they have done. (Yawn) Joe Biden: ‘We’re All Dead’ if We Don’t Stop Using Fossil Fuels
Former Vice President Joe Biden claimed during a Sunday campaign event that “we’re all dead” if fossil fuels continue to be used as one of the world’s primary energy sources.
…
Earlier in the event, Biden vowed as president to hold energy giants liable for global warming and made a pledge to even jail executives.The threat to jail fossil fuel executives presumably includes current or former executives like his son Hunter Biden (Burisma) and Nancy Pelosi’s son Paul Pelosi (Viscoil), and who knows how many other children of prominent Democrats who hold or have held lucrative fossil fuel directorships in the Ukraine and elsewhere. It takes a courageous politician to threaten jail time for his own kin, and the children of some of his most important political allies. wattsupwiththat.com/2019/12/31/joe-biden-climate-threat-jail-fossil-fuel-executives-like-hunter/Are you as sick of this total crap as I am? Joe Biden spent way more on private jets in the third quarter than his top 2020 Democratic rivalswww.cnbc.com/2019/10/17/joe-biden-spent-more-on-private-jets-in-3q-than-2020-democratic-rivals.htmlDo the Democrats have anybody at all who isn't full of shit? Then, Say hello to Jeremy Corbyn. Why not form Bullshitters united?

Joe's okay. He wouldn't be my first pick but compared with Trump, he's a comfortable fit. We might even fall into step with the rest of the world with a Biden presidency for 4 years. It will take that long to recover from Trump and be ready to move on.
I understand and agree with most of your opinions on Climate Change, fret, but too much fossil fuel equals heavy pollution and I do see quite a few negatives in that. Our air, here in the greater Ohio river valley is cleaner now than it was in 2010 and times before that. I'd like to see it stay that way.

should be fun if Biden gets in......so much stuff for the republicans to thow his way as for jailing those involved in fossil fuels... what an insane idea.....as economies relied on fossil fuels .. just how far back in time is this noncense going to go...… and until you have an alternative heating/power/ cooking supply/... fossil fuels will continue to be used...……….. any one who thinks they can take away fossil fuels from the populace... I cannot see people going back to shivering in the winter and not being able to cook foods

Sleepy Joe has no chance of getting elected, President Trump will be elected in 2020 and this was foretold by a Demcrat contendor who stated that the Impeachment process has guaranteed Trumps re-election. It must be difficult being a Demcrat and having the taste of the bitter ashes of defeat permanently in your mouth and the deplorables / reprehensibles always laughing at your predicament !!

""@fretty"and who knows how many other children of prominent Democrats who hold or have held lucrative fossil fuel directorships in the Ukraine and elsewhere."" John Kerry's stepson was also on Burisma board and I suppose he was trousering around Eighty Thousand Dollars per month like Hunter Biden did !! and let's not forget that guy from the CIA who was Obama's conduit to vast wealth, also sitting on the board !!

Just a quick correction and to inform, ( I worked in Oil and Gas for many decades so I speak from experience), Gas is NOT a Fossil fuel !! Gas is in fact a renewable fuel.

I'm an Independent and have to admit I may change to Democrat if Trump wins again. His intelligence is questionable and he's obviously quite corrupt. We can do better. Be careful what you wish for.

Joe Biden has tried to catch up with the Democrat cool kids, by demanding fossil fuel executives should be held accountable for the climate harm they have done. He obviously doesn't really want to be President of the United States. The United States has the lowest gasoline prices in the world, except for Russia, Pakistan and Saudi Arabia. www.statista.com/statistics/221368/gas-prices-around-the-world/That's miraculous, given how hostile Democrats are to the petrochemical industries. Oil executives deserve the Nobel prize for bringing affordable, private transportation to billions all over the world, not calumnies and scorn from hypocritical, pinhead libtards. Ten bucks says this idiot is as heavily invested in petro and pharma stocks as the people he claims to hate.

Oil executives deserve the Nobel prize for bringing affordable, private transportation to billions all over the world, not calumnies and scorn from hypocritical, pinhead libtards. Ten bucks says this idiot is as heavily invested in petro and pharma stocks as the people he claims to hate. The children of Pelosi and Biden seem to be happy to have earned a crust out of the fossil fuel industry, particularly in Ukraine. Champagne socialism over there isn't that different to ours, it's as bent as a nine bob note: Documents, newly revealed by The Telegraph reveal that the non-profit Tony Blair Institute (TBI) was talking to officials about securing further funding from the European Commission.
Talks between the TBI and the EU were happening while Blair actively campaigned for a second Brexit referendum.
Responding to the claims, a spokesperson for the institute said it was “perfectly entitled to seek EU funding for work relevant to EU funding streams”.www.cityam.com/tony-blairs-organisation-bid-for-eu-money-while-he-was-campaigning-against-brexit/Without fossil fuels we'd be back to a neo-mediaeval society. You can't make concrete or steel etc without coal. Most, if not all, sterile products used in hospitals and medicine in general are packaged in plastic, made from oil. The list just goes on and on. Basically, it's the dismantling of the economy, as Obama's science guy once wrote: “A massive campaign must be launched to de-develop the United States. De-development means bringing our economic system into line with the realities of ecology and the world resource situation.” —Dr. Paul Ehrlich, Anne Ehrlich, and Dr. John Holdren, Ecoscience: Population, Resources, Environment, 1970 As a casual observer I'd say that the election will be Trump's to lose. The Green New Deal - however each Democrat candidate might water it down - is the means to begin de-development of the United States. assets.documentcloud.org/documents/5729035/Green-New-Deal-FAQ.pdfThe Green New Deal is nothing more than a silly student manifesto. Yet: Channeling the Green New Deal, Biden’s $1.7 trillion “Clean Energy Revolution” would raise taxes, send energy costs sky high and kill millions of good-paying jobs. eu.usatoday.com/story/opinion/2019/06/12/joe-biden-radical-green-new-deal-plan-moderate-column/1365919001/Hillary was going to put a whole lot of miners out of work...

If you put as much effort into scrutinizing the Republicans as you do the Democrats, I think you'd find the balance tipped to the "right". Mitch McConnell and the Trump family alone would stretch your imagination. Forget the Bidens, forget the Clintons ,.. there's no comparison.

But Beth, you don't find the Republicans coming out as squeaky-clean, holier-than-thou Saints, that's the big difference "" Forget the Bidens, forget the Clintons ,.. there's no comparison."" Comparison with what ? Are you giving what Joe Biden has done, a pass ? Have you asked how many times did Bill Clinton fly on Epsteins Lolita Airplane ??

There's no real indication Biden has done anything wrong or broken any laws. Trump's misdeeds, bribery and corruption are out for all to see. Don't spare him. It will set us up to have to endure other low lives if we do. Trump's life has been one illegal scam after another. Lock him up.

Biden clearly states he told the Ukraine to fire a public prosecutor or promised aid ($1bn) would be withheld. On Obama's authority. It's on video, he's even bragging about it. So how is it not guilty? Do tell.
