Jay Inslee On Climate Change -- "I have a plan for that." His interview with Yale 360.

" The climate crisis is not a single issue, it’s every issue.

It’s the economy.

It’s healthcare.

It’s our nation’s security.

It’s every issue and the one that is most urgent."

Inslee has since unveiled two major climate change proposals. One would require “zero-emission” electricity generation across the U.S. by 2035.

The other calls for the federal government to invest $3 trillion over a decade to upgrade buildings, create “climate-smart infrastructure,” encourage “clean manufacturing,” and research “next-generation” energy technologies.

Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, of New York, one of the authors of the Green New Deal, recently tweeted that Inslee’s plans were “the most serious + comprehensive” of any of the candidate’s.

5. I don't think it's what we're hearing about 2020 elections protections. It's what we're NOT hearing.

What I mean is, you wouldn't, if you were IT techs working in states or in tandem with Intelligence agencies, tell the public what you're doing to shore up protections for voting and thereby tip off the GRU or FSB, would you. No, it would be kept on the down low.

Know what I mean?

We can't yet think that we know the lay of the land about 2020.

7. I admire your positive thinking

Personally I am CERTAIN on election day in those 4 states and others votes were flipped by the KGB and others.

I am certain of this because putin doesnt spend billions and years fixing an election with a stooge and then on election day sits back and leaves it up to us, no way.

9. A thing called virtual programming can be built into election software at state or server levels;

it can make vote counts accurate.

I don't have an inside line on how to circumvent hacking, but I'm sure virtual programming can be one workaround the Dems can do to ensure count accuracy. They're already devoting over $90 million in those stolen states.

Don't give up.

So glad he is talking about a plan that will actually make a difference. If the candidates do not push this it will never happen.

6. I think it will. AOC, Inslee and their supporters will keep it front and center so it does happen.
