Subject: The Paris Climate Agreement
Something to seriously ponder in regards to the Paris Climate Agreement:
In December 2015, nine months before the end of his presidency, Barrack Obama signed the Paris Accord. The United States did not. *In order to ratify it as a treaty 2/3 of the Senate had to approve it.* Obama told us it was not a treaty, but an executive agreement between himself and other nations. The Paris agreement was an agreement only with the Obama Administration, and an unratfied treaty *in which case it had no effect*. *The Constitution's separation of powers prevents the President from binding the country unilaterally.* Our system does not divide authority into spheres controlled exclusively by the Senate, House and President. It requires combinations of offices to work together.
Obama's counterparties in Paris knew he lacked the support to bind our country. In fact, they *watered down the wording of the agreement to support Obama's contention that it did not require ratification*.
Examples: they changed the word "shall" to "should" in many places in order to avoid calling it a treaty. The negotiators choose between a treaty that would bind the United States and the promise of an outgoing president.
Any claims that Trump or the United States "is going back on its word" is disingenuous. *Only Obama gave his word and the other parties in Paris helped design the agreement to throw our Constitution out the window*.
Obama ignored his constitutional duty to submit treaties to the Senate. In fact, a statement from the Obama White House said it all when the White House signaled it would bypass the Senate no matter what by saying " I think it's hard to take seriously from some members of Congress who deny the fact that climate change exists, that they should have some opportunity to render judgment about a climate change agreement."
Under the agreement Obama signed, the UN would have called the shots on what we did within our own borders to protect the climate. They would have also had the power to punish us through embargoes and trade agreements.
Under Obama's agreement, China, and the world's major polluters, would be ALLOWED to increase their emissions where the United States could not.
India is hinging its participation on *billions of dollars of foreign aid. *
The agreement was less about the climate and *more about other countries gaining financial advantage over the United States.* This was a United Nations program that gave foreign leaders in Europe and Asia more say with respect to the United States economy then we do. It would have handicapped the United States economy - *it was a deal that would have punished the United States, while imposing no obligations on the world's leading polluters. *
China would be allowed to build hundreds of additional coal plants, but we could not, according to the agreement. India would be allowed to double its coal production by 2020, but we would have to get rid of ours. Even Europe would have been allowed to continue construction of coal plants, but we could not.
*Obama's requirements in the Paris Accord would* *have cost the United States economy nearly $3 trillion.*
By 2040 our economy *would lose 6.5 million industrial sector jobs including 31 million manufacturing sector jobs*. It would decapitate our coal industry which now supplies one-third of our electric power.
It imposed unrealistic targets on the United States for reducing *our* carbon emissions, while giving countries like China a free pass. China would actually be allowed to INCREASE emissions until 2030.
Obama committed $3 billion to the Green Climate Fund - which is about 30 percent of the initial funding - WITHOUT being authorized by Congress.  One man spent billions without approval. Where are the Democrats with an offset?
*We are already $20 trillion in debt; US taxpayers should not be paying to subsidize other countries' energy needs. *
The United States is already a Clean Energy and Oil & Gas Energy Leader. We can reduce our emissions and continue to produce American energy *without the Paris Accord*. America has already reduced its carbon-dioxide emissions dramatically (who remembers those yearly emission tests). The United States is the leader in oil and gas production.
*For anyone who thought the Paris Accord was all about clean river and air, it is not and never was. *
*THE AGREEMENT WAS TO FUND A UNITED NATIONS CLIMATE **SLUSH FUND** UNDERWRITTEN BY THE AMERICAN TAXPAYERS.*

  • It amazes me that Barry walked way from 8 years of havoc and lies, when he left office, without a whimper from the Justice Department of Trump's administration. I am still trying to figure out who put BHO into the position where he could destroy America. Was it Soros?  Barry broke laws with out any one fighting back. That proves to me that the Leadership of the Republicans is in cahoots with the Democrats. I am assuming that McConnell and Ryan have been "bought" by some outside sources. I believe that John McCain has been "bought" by Soros, but who else is in Soros pocket? The UN is a serious threat to the the USA and it should be ejected from the soil of America. These are just my thoughts about why Trump is having greater trouble than any other president has ever had in his first year in office.

  • You are right John, The United Nations is a far greater threat to America than North Korea, China, or Russia. And it is all being orchestrated and coordinated by the great "Community Organizer himself, Barack Hussein Obama. There are also many others behind and beside him, (Valerie Jarrett, Hillary and Bill Clinton). This thing with FBI Mueller and Comey is about to turn real ugly. The Deep-State along with the Communist News media such as MSNBC, CNN, NBC, and others is about to get really nasty. They are trying to bring down President Trump and all his administration.
    My advice right now is to prepare for a hard and hot civil war.

  • It's a sad day when being a natural born citizen puts you at a disadvantage in the nation we grew up in. Aliens and illegals have more advantages: more social programs, more government assistance, greater advantages in getting into colleges,
    A higher priority of hire in many businesses,
    Also citizens especially white citizens are more stigmatized because of their skin color and religious beliefs that they arnt even allowed a the discussion table. If you honestly look with open eyes racism is focused not on blacks, not on Mexicans, not on the Muslins, it's focused on white citizens.
    Sad that those who were born here are treated worse than those who are law breakers and the criminal gets more benefits and advantages than those who keep the law. We reward the guilty and punish the innocent.

    • Did you hear that somebody in the Hawaii registry of birth, said" We never had a birth certificate for Barack Obama. Yes it comes out! This man was plant to destroy America. We need to charge Nancy Pelosi for clearing BHO to run for president. No wonder he has kept his records sealed.

  • Bonnie, John, Old Rooster....
    We've all hit the nail on the head, our eyes are "wide open" while the majority's eyes are "wide shut". One thing the Trump presidency has produced is that it's brought the level and depth of the conspiratorial agenda out into the open. The left in trying to cover up their agenda has played the race card, used class warefare, railed unending accusations that those who have achieved financial success have done so by oppressing others and a myriad of accusations when looked into deeply are completely false. The "sheep" of this world eat everything they are serving up. They can not even see the open hypocrisy of them excoriating the rich while everyone of them are living as the 1% they bastardize.
    Even, almost every liberal newscaster I've researched is a multimillionaire and they didn't get that way strictly from their pay as a journalist. They have to play these cards and get people to look the other way or else they will see behind the curtain that everything they are saying and doing is a fraud and a lie. All we can do is continue to call out from the roof tops "The emperor has no clothes ". Bonnie is right if things continue to evolve contrary to our founding principles a revolution will take place, the core of this country will not give up without a fight. Over 90% of human history finds mankind at war with one another. This has started as a spiritual conflict begun before the creation of man and will continue until Christ's return which could happen at anytime. We can pray, speak the truth and live out our convictions in the sight of others.
    The majority of the world is running headlong into destruction. If your eyes are open, thank God today for you could be like the rest of the world, believing the lie.
  • Bonnie, Michael, and John, You're right. Civil war is fast approaching.
    I think we are much closer than anyone knows. Yes, Obama by-passed Congress on many occasions, and Congress never said a damn word about it. (Deep-State !! ??? ) Try treason.
    Is the United Nations in full control and in charge of the USA? If they are not now in complete control they are very very close. The UN has already told President Trump that he can NOT repeal Obamacare, that would be "ILLEGAL'  - - -  WHAT !!??? They also told him we can NOT deport all those refugees and illegals. That also would be illegal.......... Again - - WHAT !!!??
    What the hell does the UN have to say about ANYTHING here in the USA ???
    Civil war ??? The ANTIFA and blacks have said they are arming up for a civil war against the "Whites" , The "racists", and the Trump supporters. OK, So let them get it on, we are ready for them.............
    But here's another twist,,,,,,,,, FBI Mueller KNOWS that we are on to him. He has taken his "Russian Connection" way too far. Mueller has now demanded to see ALL the phone recordings from Air Force One. The President's airplane. Now this is only the recordings from the Trump administration, NOT the recordings from the Obama administration.
    Right now Mueller and those members in Congress who have opposed Trump in every manor know that the American people are on to their little games, and that we have just about had enough. They know the people are about to rise up and demand a stop to their Deep-State treason.
    So how do they plan to stop us ???
    Well if a civil war with ANTIFA and Obama's OFA black army isn't enough to do it how about starting WW-III with North Korea???  THAT would definitely serve to distract our attention.
    Kim Jung UN-educated is too stupid to know that he is probably being set up to get killed. So who is really doing all this ??? I'll give you three guesses,,,, the first two don't count. Follow the $$$$$$$$$$.

    $20-++ TRILLION dollars worth. Which actually translates to over $125 TRILLION dollars, US.
    Still have doubts about whether or not the UN is now in Control of the US??
    Why do you think they HATE Trump so much......
    Has anyone else noticed that ALL of Trumps original staff is now gone? Including his long time personal body guard.

    Trump now hears and is being told and briefed ONLY what the Deep-State wants him to hear.

  • I wonder if those seeking anarchy have fought this thing through??? When they start Trump can institute the full force of the Patriot Act. They might be the ones being put into these FEMA camps instead of us.
    Forcing someone's hands has consequences wheather its pushing the administration and law enforcement or Kim Jung UN-educated. "For every action there's a reaction". I guarantee you if they start they will not finish, others will because they are outnumbered and outgunned and the law is against them. In a way, I hope they play that hand, what happens to them will serve as a wake up call for the socialist loving left. Their small fish in the grand scheme of things.Their arrogance has blinded them just like North Korea's leadership to the
    The fury they will unleash and I guarantee you neither will win the battle.
