Hail President Donald Trump for pulling out of the Paris climate change agreement.
In the first place, this "agreement" is a usurpation of the power of the presidency. The Constitution gives the president power to make treaties "provided two-thirds of the Senators concur." The Paris plan is a treaty or there ain't a cow in Texas. President Barrack Obama bypassed the Constitution's treaty mandate because he knew the Senate would reject the deal.
The same applies to Obama's undercover scheme that funds Iran's development of nuclear bombs.In both cases he ignored the Senate's constitutional authority.

Unfortunately, Senate Republicans refused to exercise their responsibility and declare the flawed agreements to be treaties and vote on them as such.
The Paris climate deal (allegedly voluntarily) obligates the developed world, America, Canada, Europe, Australia, etc., to impoverish ourselves and send our prosperity to Third World countries. It would be the greatest income transfer in history.
As such, the Paris accord fulfills the ambition of Marxism-Leninism from its conception. Communism failed to make all humans equal, even as they murdered 100,000,000 trying to do so and collapsed as a viable political system.World-government climate change mandates are just the thing to achieve the goals of communism.
For all the hysteria based on the fact that climate always fluctuates, the real threat to humanity, Islamic terrorism, is ignored by the worshippers in the Climate Change Church.
The Copenhagen climate conference of 2009 collapsed after exposure of climate data fraud at East Anglia University. Nevertheless, Herman van Rompuy, the European Union head, said that with climate change agreements "2009 is the first year of global governance" and is "another step to global management."
"Voluntary" may apply to other nations, but for us it will be mandatory, in effect. Climate-change religionists are already circling like buzzards looking for opportunities to sue somebody, anybody, to force compliance with global government's wishes. Laurent Fabius, presiding at the conference, said the standards are "voluntary but legally binding." Voluntary?
Under the Paris agreement Obama foisted on America, China will do nothing to reduce carbon emissions before 2030, if then. It will continue to drastically expand its use of demonized coal to produce electricity for their people. India demands a bribe before they do anything and they plan to double their use of coal anyway.
According to National Public Radio, no climate-change denier, we are required to send at least $100 billion per year to underdeveloped countries.
NPR says this is a floor, not a maximum. It will ramp up over the years. According to standard operating procedure, this largesse will not get to the needy people. Instead It will fund their kleptocrat rulers' lavish lifestyles and their offshore bank accounts. Example: China, ruled by "all animals are equal" communists, proves Animal Farm'sadage, "but some are more equal than others." Some of the richest billionaires on earth are high echelon members of the Chinese communist party.
NPR says further: Even the target date for reduction of greenhouse gases is a big guess. It's somewhere around "mid-century." In the near future CO2 will rise. Eventually, but not soon, emissions will decline. Nations aren't expected to reduce emissions immediately. Zero emissions is the goal, but we would have to completely shut down every beneficial greenhouse gas technology, to (possibly) achieve that objective.
For all the lost jobs, lost prosperity, strangling regulations (including on cow belches and farts,etc.)the illusive improvement in global temperature is only about 1.5 degrees centigrade in 85 years. The politicians negotiating the deal decided that at 2-degree rise "plucked out of air" would be unrealistic, but they moved to 1.5 degrees, even more unrealistic.
For all the hysteria based on the fact that climate always fluctuates, the real threat to humanity, Islamic terrorism, is ignored by the worshippers in the Climate Change Church. Non-believer and heretics are to be figuratively gagged, tortured and burned at the stake to save our souls.
