comment email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest tuesday august 30 2022 america under the democrats this is sam brinton the person in charge of dealing with high level nuclear waste for our country as announced on yahoo it seems president joe biden made history last month that s when sam brinton announced the administration had hired them as deputy assistant secretary of spent fuel and waste disposition in the office of nuclear energy for the department of energy mr brinton wants everyone to use the pronouns they and them when referring to him although he is one person not many as they is understood by us non woke americans out here in rural america this is our world now as long as democrats control our country in 1986 i was thoroughly engaged in a grassroots political fight to prevent the us department of energy from disposing of spent fuel rods under the ground here from lovell to westbrook maine we declared victory only when chernobyl melted down the ural mountains of russia that incident caused the us doe to scrap their plans for burying spent fuel rods in maine and instead plan to hollow out yucca mountain in nevada for a nuclear waste repository that was thirty six years ago but nothing has been done in nevada or anywhere else yet that s because the late senate majority leader harry reid of nevada prevented that from happening in his state as of today the nation s highly radioactive spent fuel rods are still kept in pools at our remaining nuclear power plants all over america until either sam brinton or his successor determines what to do with them don t worry though spent fuel rods are only dangerous for a few thousand years according to national review brinton has bragged about participating in kink relationships as a pup handler a person typically a gay man who enjoys taking care of other typically gay men who pretend to be dogs sam brinton doesn t seem to know he s a man yet president biden thinks brinton knows what to do with america s most dangerous nuclear waste this is america under the democrats think about that when you go to the polls in november posted by tom mclaughlin at 12 26

proponents those for and against the proposed solar fields in lovell maine do not reflect traditional party lines not all left leaning people who support renewable energy in principle support the local solar fields project recognizing that multinational corporations profit from them and don t always care what ancillary effects they have on a little town like lovell not all the conservative leaning citizens are against commercial solar projects either recognizing that while landowners should be free to lease their land to huge solar companies they want zoning ordinances to regulate it as a fairly well known local conservative who has publicly opposed the huge solar development proposed by walden renewables for lovell i ve been criticized for going against conservative principles after all don t conservatives believe landowners should be free to do what they like with their property one critic emailed me recently claiming a n unexpected disappointment was to see you apparently lose your compass i expect hypocrisy and false outrage from the left but not from a conservative who would want to own other people s property communally richard inherited a good sized piece of land near me and agreed to lease it to walden renewables for about half of their proposed solar project some tens of thousands of solar panels i don t know how much walden promised to pay him but it must be a good chunk of change because he s pissed at me for helping organize lovell s opposition to the project i t appears you got fearful that your view would be impacted and you were off to the races spreading mis information and publishing fake news like you were a rachel maddow staffer you re waist deep in with the mob as a hero of the revolution as a board member of our eden association the principal organization opposing the project i helped get a proposed ordinance onto an upcoming lovell town meeting ballot that would discourage multinational companies from building large scale solar developments in lovell while encouraging projects for a homeowner or a small business richard compares that to bolshevism writing it is truly scary what is happening in lovell the phenomenon of how social media can be used in a malicious way to gather support to trounce on landowners rights mobs don t need to walk the street with torches now they just use facebook anything this group wants to do from seeding the boards to putting in new ordinances they are able to do with their apparatus in place well yeah those are some of the things we re encouraging through the our eden association but isn t that constitutional democracy at work not in richard s mind apparently lovell has gone full on socialist and heading for communism and you re in there leading the movement he wrote republican leaning folks focus a lot on big government at the state and federal level but the absolute tyranny comes from towns and neighbors are you working on the 5 year plan well sort of i know richard was referring to lenin s and stalin s five year plans for the soviet union but it so happens that lovell is preparing to update its comprehensive plan and recently canvassed citizens about what direction they want lovell to go in state law requires towns to do that but evidently richard considers it tyranny within days after word got out about the walden solar project richard contacted me evidently to feel me out about my position on it i knew who richard was at the time but didn t know him well i was still researching it and hadn t made up my mind and i told him so now i m wondering if walden had asked him to contact me did the company consider me a potential adversary who writes newspaper columns i don t know my wife roseann in the yard this was a good if not great project for lovell the country and the world he wrote last week it never even got a hearing because a mob sprung into action that could be compared to all the great dangerous mobs of history mobs led by me i guess lovell is lost to me he continued it gave me a great childhood but with berta s passing my last emotional tie to the town is gone good luck with whoever buys all my land i won t tell them that they have many co owners that will not share in the taxes richard was referring to roberta chandler a mutual friend about whom i recently wrote a tribute for the lovell historical society newsletter roberta was a great lady who loved lovell posted by tom mclaughlin at 3 28 pm 2 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest monday december 27 2021 industrial wolves in environmentalist sheep s clothing too cheap to meter was a claim made by proponents of nuclear power plants to generate electricity in the 1950s we ve since learned that was wildly optimistic since then we ve heard similar pie in the sky claims made by proponents of renewable energy touting wind and solar electric generating projects in maine and just about everywhere else it s free it s limitless it s clean and so forth those power sources can work so long as the wind is blowing and the sun is shining they don t generate anything during calm still nights however when people still need electricity the old fashioned nuclear and fossil fuel generators have to back up production of electricity at these times wind farms can also be very noisy kill a lot of birds and they can be unsightly as well protruding up to 650 feet above the hilltops on which they re usually sited the same people who enjoy looking at paintings of quaint dutch windmills can be put off seeing hills covered by enormous modern windmills lately we re learning the drawbacks of industrial solar farms already built under construction and proposed in maine they re noisy they re huge the one proposed for lovell would cover and area twice the size of the one in fryeburg walden renewables the firm that got the enormous fryeburg project approved has sold it to a canadian firm while it s still being built they promise however they wouldn t do that to lovell and we can trust them right lately we re learning that solar panels are built in china using slaves even those built in vietnam and elsewhere have in them key components like polysilicon produced in xinjiang province using uyghur muslim forced labor just this week president biden signed a bipartisan bill banning imports from xinjiang province that was opposed by apple and nike good for him does that ban include solar panels i certainly hope so back in 1986 we here in lovell learned about one of the downsides of nuclear power when the us department of energy proposed burying highly radioactive spent fuel rods in the granite batholith that underlies southern maine between lovell and the city of westbrook however within three months of the doe s proposal the chernobyl nuclear power plant melted down in russia s ural mountains that was only seven years after the three mile island meltdown in pennsylvania and the nuclear industry took a big hit within weeks the us department of energy scrapped their plans for a nuclear waste dump in maine one thing i don t understand about maine leftists is their opposition to the clean energy corridor and their orchestration of its defeat on a recent referendum the now defunct corridor proposal would use an already existing passageway for its power lines over most of its route and bring surplus hydroelectricity from a facility on canada s hudson bay quebec hydro is a renewable power source yes some additional trees would be cut to expand the corridor but the operation produces no emissions isn t zero emissions what the left wants we all depend on a reliable supply of electricity and we re rudely reminded of that every time there is a power failure it is in our interest to keep the supply steady and we should understand that renewable sources with the possible exception of hydroelectricity are not reliable they re intermittent and we need back up sources nuclear power is close to 100 reliable and while it too has its drawbacks like how to safely dispose of the waste but it may well be our best choice at this point meanwhile we have walden renewables llc posing as lovell s best choice it will produce no emissions it will reduce our electric bills it will provide tax revenue but we have so ask ourselves is walden really an industrial wolf in environmentalist sheep s clothing my what big fields of solar panels you have we say the better to serve you with says walden how ugly they are we say they re only visible from 0 14 of the town says walden what huge piles of waste you ll leave when you re gone we say we ve included decommissioning costs in our proposal says walden but we don t know what those costs will be in thirty years we say we ve planned for that says walden but there are toxic materials in your panels we say we ll take care of those says walden and then three s this says walden sheep can graze under our solar panels we ll even plant special nutritious grass for them it s all in our proposal walden renewables it sounds so thoreau like doesn t it with a name like that we can trust them right posted by tom mclaughlin at 7 12 am no comments

lovell s old town hall was packed standing room only i wasn t sure what to expect when i arrived but energy permeated the room if any present supported the proposed location of 170 000 solar panels in rural lovell maine by walden renewables llc they were silent five people representing the company were the only ones to utter anything positive but then they were paid to do that no one spoke in favor from the portland press herald no one spoke against solar energy either rather they objected to where walden renewables wanted to put row after row of their big ugly black panels in the 100 square miles of lovell the company chose a venue that would ruin one of the nicest mountain views in our picturesque town one hundred eighty acres of carbon consuming trees would be clearcut and replaced with 170 000 solar panels ostensibly to mitigate climate change it would also mar the vista along christian hill road where i happen to live the photo above depicts only 30 000 panels the one proposed for lovell would be five or six times that my backyard solar panels would fill the hillside below the mountains it was gratifying to hear how many people describe how beautiful the views are from christian hill how when traveling north or south through lovell they choose to drive our road instead of route 5 the main north south thoro...
