Tucker waves a red flag over manufactured energy crisis and Europe’s fast-moving decline into poverty

August 30, 2022 | | Print Article

Fox News host Tucker Carlson bluntly laid out the fact that Europe is sliding into poverty and a brutal energy shortage is looming for them this winter, which is all by design and part of the Green New Deal.

“So, the most advanced continent on the planet, the birthplace of Western civilization, our civilization, is getting much poorer very quickly. It’s moving backward at high speed. Just a year ago, Europe was a modern place. For example, the overwhelming majority of Europeans heated their homes with natural gas, as modern people do,” Carlson noted.

“In Germany, the continent’s richest country, only about 6% of households, most of them rural, heated with cordwood and you’d expect that, given that, again, Germany is a modern industrialized country with central heating and indoor plumbing and all the other trappings of a society that has moved beyond the medieval period. Last year, only about 6% of Germans used wood to heat their homes, but that has changed dramatically. Demand for firewood in Germany has risen so fast that there is none left to buy. You can’t get it, so desperate Germans are now cutting their own wood, scouring the forests like their ancestors for sources of heat,” he added.

He went on to elaborate that using wood is becoming the norm just as it was during the feudal period. Poland’s citizens are standing in line to buy coal as well. One 57-year-old Polish man told Reuters, “People are sleeping in their cars. I remember the communist times, but it didn’t cross my mind that we could return to something even worse.”

“Something even worse has arrived. The French government has announced energy rationing this winter. Just the other day, France had so much energy that it exported it to other countries. It was a net exporter of energy. Now, there won’t be enough heat in France for everyone in the country to stay warm. In the U.K., 70% of restaurants are preparing to close to go under. Why? Because when winter comes, they won’t be able to afford to keep the heat and lights on, etc., etc. This is happening across Europe, in every country,” Carlson reported.

“So, the question is: why is it happening? And the answer is extremely simple. There is an energy shortage in Europe. Cheap energy is essential. It is the key to everything that a normal society strives for: prosperity, safety, a longer life expectancy for its citizens. Everything depends on cheap energy, but Europe no longer has it and as a result, things are falling apart very quickly,” he warned.

Carlson went on to explain that energy costs in Europe will massively increase in the coming months.

“Green energy cannot replace fossil fuels. Not now, not anytime soon. Fossil fuels remain what they have always been: the key to civilization. That is true now. That has been true since Homo Erectus started the first cooking fire in a cave nearly a million years ago. So-called green energy is not close, is nowhere near replacing gas and oil and coal. It’s measurable. We could have known this. Anyone with eighth-grade math skills could have figured out in about 10 minutes that we cannot replace fossil fuels with renewables or green energy and of course, they must have known that. When they told you otherwise, it was just posturing. It was childish and destructive fantasy talk that apparently fooled millions of their citizens and millions of ours,” he explained.

“The Green New Deal means what it always meant. It means poverty and the people pushing the Green New Deal must have known that all along. They don’t actually believe climate change is an imminent threat. If they actually believe climate change was an imminent threat, an existential emergency, the first thing they would have done, the very first would be to ban private jets. Oh, but no. To this day, Al Gore still flies on private jets. Barack Obama owns tens of millions of dollars of beachfront property. He knows the oceans aren’t rising. Come on. So, they’re all in on it. It’s a scam, but they don’t care because they know they personally will escape the consequences of their own policies,” the Fox News host contended.

People can see through all of this and Carlson points out that Trump was once again right about the energy future of Europe. They should have taken him seriously.

“What’s changed, what’s so very interesting, is that suddenly everyone else who’s been paying attention can see that they were lying. They are frauds and the entire population of Europe now knows that. Donald Trump, to his credit, whatever you think of him, caught onto this early. Four years ago, Trump warned Europe about its energy future during a speech at the United Nations. The German delegation laughed at him,” he recounted.

“So, we could fix this problem. The solution to this catastrophe is very straightforward: End the war in Ukraine. Reestablish energy flows into Europe and save the global economy, including ours. Is Joe Biden doing that? And other reckless Western leaders like Boris Johnson doing that? No, they’re doing the opposite. They’re spending billions more from their dying economies to Ukrainian oligarchs and for no good reason. The UK just committed $2.8 billion to Ukraine in a country where 70% of pubs may close because they can’t afford electricity,” Carlson stated.

“This is the government preparing for power outages in the middle of winter, as the Guardian reported. ‘Under the government’s last reasonable, worst-case scenario, officials believe the UK could experience blackouts for several days in January if cold weather combines with gas shortages to leave the country short of power.’ Well, of course, cold weather will combine with gas shortages because that’s when people use gas, when the weather is cold. Wake up, geniuses. And it’s not just happening in the UK. Again, it’s happening everywhere. Spain has just approved more than €50 million for Ukraine and that’s not including funding for military hardware,”

Carlson also made the point that energy shortages are coming to the United States as well due to Biden’s Green New Deal insanity. It may be a very long, cold winter this year.
