CA, REPUBLICAN, DOUG LAMALFA: “What per cent of our atmosphere is CO2, carbon dioxide? The answer is 0.04%. Not 1%. Not half of a %."

These folks are not part of any climate or CO2 panel.  Read their titles.  They're representing industries across the country.  Yes, they may be grifters on behalf of "Buy American" neocons, but I wouldn't expect these guys to know what greenhouse gases are or how much CO2 is in the atmosphere.  Still fun to watch.  Here is the entire hearing.  The California Congressman is Doug LaMalfa.

Orders of magnitude more stupidity in just a handful of answers https://t.co/z5QYlork4h

Well, I was able to identify the opening speaker, Mr. Rick Larsen from the state of Washington.  But he's not part of the CO2 panel.  

Okay, got it.  Here is the panel list.  The panel consists of the 4 members up front.  And they make it easy.  Here is the list from left to right, from 1st speaker to last.  

Witness List: 

Mr. Marc D. Williams, Executive Director, Texas Department of Transportation, On Behalf of the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials | Written Testimony

Mr. Dwayne Boyd, Regional President, CRH, On Behalf of the National Stone, Sand & Gravel Association | Written Testimony

Mr. Aric Dreher, Assistant General Manager, Cianbro, On Behalf of the Associated Builders and Contractors | Written Testimony

In 1890, 90% of U.S. women baked their own bread. By 1965, 78 out of every 100 pounds of flour a US woman brought into her kitchen came in the form of baked bread or another ready-prepared good.

Today, baking bread is an amusement, not a necessary chore.   https://t.co/j4I6er0VNY

RE: DIANE FEINSTEIN: Pelosi fears Newsom will name @RepBarbaraLee to replace her, making it harder for Adam Schiff to beat Lee.

The only reason Feinstein, 90, is still in the Senate - despite barely knowing where she is and her daughter having power-of-attorney over her life - is Pelosi fears Newsom will name @RepBarbaraLee to replace her, making it harder for Adam Schiff to beat Lee.

Pure elder abuse. https://t.co/xpua04sO7i

Elder abuse is a time-honored tradition in the federal gov't.  

The torturing of the old Davos minions on Capitol Hill will continue. This is not only sick but also a preview of what you won't get under their New World Order.

It'll be the assisted suicide pod for you.  https://t.co/GK2rdLUAjC

HOW MUCH ARE YOUR BASIC CIVIL LIBERTIES WORTH? During a lockdown, Melbourne shut in ~3000 residents of low-income housing for 14 days. Police put ring-fences around the buildings to prevent escape. A court awarded each resident $2220 compensation.
