Redballoon
Not so long ago, the American dream was alive and well. Employees who worked hard were rewarded, and employers looked for people who could do the job, not for people who had the right political views.  RedBalloon.work is a job site designed to get us back to what made American businesses successful: free speech, hard work, and having fun.  If you are a free speech employer who wants to hire employees who focus on their work and not identity politics, then post a job on RedBalloon.  If you are an employee who is being censored at work or is being forced to comply with the current zeitgeist, post your resume on RedBalloon and look for a new job. redballoon.work, the job site where free speech is still alive!

The Guardian: Climate Change Has Made Rainstorms ‘20% Wetter’
 
The UK-based Guardian newspaper has made the remarkable assertion that rainstorms are now 20 percent “wetter” than they used to be, thanks to climate change.
 
New York City’s recent storm and accompanying flooding show the “unmistakable influence of the climate crisis,” the Guardian contended Monday, warning the city may not be “prepared for severe climate shocks.”
 
The type of storm seen on Friday “is now 10-20% wetter than it would have been in the previous century, because of climate change,” the Guardian alleged, citing a new “rapid attribution study.”
 
The Guardian said that such a pounding rainfall is “a symptom of a warming planet” because a hotter atmosphere is “able to hold more moisture.” Curiously, at this time last year, the Guardian declared that droughts are “at least 20 times more likely” than without “human-caused global heating.”
 
In Monday’s article, the newspaper cited climate expert Tommaso Alberti, who said the rainstorm that hit New York was predictable and “aligns with climate change projections.”
 
Human-driven climate change is the “primary driver” of major storms, which underscores “the urgent need for climate mitigation and adaptation efforts,” Alberti argued.
 
Michael Mann, who invented the thoroughly debunked hockey stick graph and has falsely presented himself as a Nobel Prizewinner, agreed that the New York storm was clearly attributable to global warming.
 
“New York is experiencing a very clear increase in these extreme – more than 2in per hour – rainfall events, and that’s clearly tied to a warming atmosphere,” he said.
 
Rohit Aggarwala, the New York City commissioner of environmental protection, has also blamed the city’s reprehensible response to the storm on climate change, a convenient, if mendacious, dog-ate-my-homework excuse.
 
“The sad reality is our climate is changing faster than our infrastructure can respond,” he said.
 
Daniel Zarrilli, the former chief climate policy adviser to New York City, uttered similar lamentations.
 
“It’s clear that our cities and our aging infrastructure were built for a climate that no longer exists, particularly as a warmed atmosphere holds and releases more water,” he said.
 
Reuters joined in the climate change blame game as well, suggesting that New York City’s flooding is just part of the “new normal” ushered in by global warming.

Trudeau's internet censorship plan kicks off with government-operated streaming registry
 
Friday's announcement from the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) that online streaming services in Canada must register with the government agency has sent a chill throughout independent media. 
 
Critics say it is the beginning of a broad registry of all online news media, even if the CRTC is currently maintaining that a $10 million threshold exists fo
