Beto O’Rourke scared the kids recently.  He likes the “Green New Deal” because if we don’t go back to the 18th century we will all be killed by storms or locusts or something.

Mr. Beto apparently believes “Climate Change” will threaten the kids fairly soon and wants unprecedented government regulations to stop that warm feeling.  Yes, Washington, D.C. can reverse all this hot weather by telling Americans exactly what they can and can’t do in their lives.

It is encouraging to see that Mr. Beto has so much confidence in the Washington people.  Maybe because he’s from El Paso, Texas, he stands in awe of the awesomeness of most politicians.  Skeptical that the feds can neutralize climate change?  Nah, not Beto.  He’s seen first hand how well the VA system and Obamacare works.  By all means, let’s have the feds tell Americans how they can travel, what they can eat, what kind of dwellings are acceptable, and how cows are killers.

The far left is now conducting a political seminar on how America really should be run.  In addition to the “Green New Deal,” there should be a “New Deal” for unborn babies.  And that new deal says if you are unwanted for any reason, you can be executed inside the womb at any time.  Beto O’Rourke and others in the progressive movement are fine with that.  Such a deal.

And in order to impose the new deal philosophy on Americans who don’t approve, let’s pack the Supreme Court with more Justices.  Remember that show “Eight is Not Enough?”  Now it’s nine is not enough.  Let’s have 20 Justices or 30.  As long as they all think like Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

Even though progressives like Mr. Beto and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez enjoy mostly favorable media coverage, the folks are wise to what’s going on. The Green New Deal is a big con, a power grab attempt based on the absurd belief that Washington can control the world’s climate.

Yes, all Americans should be environmentally correct.  Don’t litter or waste resources.  But we have a right to live our lives without Beto O’Rourke coming to our neighborhoods and scaring the young uns.

Finally, I have a new deal for the fanatical progressive movement: wise up and nix the nonsense.  That’s what will really cool things down.
