I know what is debatable. The question of somebody so out of touch with the fundamentals of science can be competant to manage the important research facilities of DOE.

So more Department of No Energy, with focused opposition to coal and oil, and more wasted on the unreliable solar and wind "green" energy.
Wondering when we're going to have a "Battle of Lexington and Concord" event. This regime is pushing hard enough that it's got to be just a matter of time.

July 4th possibly, though it'll probably be more like Fort Sumpter than Lexington Green. You hear about Kokesh's armed march? Bad juju.

Sumter was an attempt to destroy constitutional government, thwarting the outcome of a legitimate election, where the new administration had constitutionally legitimate goals.
This 4th may rhyme with Lexington and Concord. We know this administration does not have constitutionally legitimate goals. The marchers unquestionably have the right to walk while armed. If they stay peaceable, the government has no legitimate interest in stopping them.

No legitimate interest, but if the march happens, DC police will try to stop it. The regime can't afford for their "law" to be violated with impunity by challengers. Only their people get to violate the law when it gets in the way of what they see a valid interests.
If the DC police are smart there will be a contingent at the bridge ready to issue a warning to turn back or be subject to arrest, something like Lexington in reverse. Wherever the police and protesters meet, my gut says someone will fire a shot leading to more fire from both sides.
And the press narrative will be a bunch of criminals openly challenging law and order.

Which is why I think it will "rhyme" with Lexington & Concord.

Problem is all it takes is a car backfiring or some such to get things going. Think about it--Kokesh wants 1000 armed people. That's not something cops have EVER faced in this country before. Then you have the other side, similarly on edge for a sign that they're not just going to walk to the end of the bridge and hand over their gun for handcuffs.
The gov has a reputation for plants and such in similar(though not nearly as volatile) situations, and all it takes is one idiot to start the third war.
