Notable quotes

  • Perhaps one of the worst offenses is the wind scam, and so that motivated me to make that documentary.
  • Wind does not work anywhere; it is literally a scam, a multi-billion dollar scam.
  • We are literally paying our existential enemy, the Chinese Communist Party, to import materials for a power source which doesn't work for American consumers.
  • In the meantime, for the near term to medium term, we have literally centuries of supply of natural gas.
  • We know how to access responsibly natural gas again. We can ship it via pipelines all over America.
  • I think there is a growing aversion to windmills; I think people are waking up to even if they subscribe generally to the so-called green agenda.
