It Ain’t Easy Being Green
What to know: The Biden administration has updated its green energy plans for transportation and other aspects of our lives.
The TPPF take: The green energy agenda increases poverty, and it must stop.
“While the media is constantly ringing alarm bells about the always-changing climate, not enough people are alarmed by the economic trade-offs these unreliable green energy initiatives create,” says TPPF’s Jason Isaac. “Forcing some of the population to depend on energy sources that don’t work ultimately pushes them into hardship and poverty when those methods fail.”

WHO?
What to know: Entrepreneur Elon Musk and the head of the World Health Organization have sparred on Twitter over the WHO’s proper role. Musk warns nations not to cede their sovereignty to the WHO.
The TPPF take: The U.S. must opt out of the WHO’s global medical tyranny.
“Reservations about this agency’s scientific arrogance and the pharmaceutical industry’s drive for profit have inspired a group of 17 U.S. senators, led by Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., to draft a resolution urging the Biden administration to submit the new WHO agreement as a treaty for the Senate’s consent or rejection,” says TPPF’s Chuck DeVore. “With what we know today, the U.S. should stay away from the WHO — not because the Chinese control it, but because We the People do not.”

DEI
What to know: It’s time to dismantle “diversity, equity and inclusion” rules at colleges and universities, Heather MacDonald writes for Quillette.
The TPPF take: DEI’s ideas have gotten twisted.
“The meaning and application of diversity promoted under bad DEI practices has little to do with different points of view or experience,” says TPPF’s Ron Simmons. “It instead embraces the idea of distinct and rival groups pitted against one another in a power struggle. This is unhealthy for a pluralistic society.”
