16 Million Trees Cut Down To Make Way For Wind Farms, Scottish National Party Reveals

 Nearly 16 million carbon-catching trees have been cut down in Scotland since 2000 - in order to erect carbon-saving wind turbines - the Scottish National Party admitted last week.

An estimated 15.7 million trees - or about 1,700 per day - have been cut down on public land managed by Forestry and Land Scotland, Scottish Rural Affairs Secretary Mairi Gougeon revealed in a letter to Scottish Tory MSP Liam Kerr, who called the news "Astonishing."

"I've been contacted many times by rural communities all over the country questioning the location of these developments, sharing legitimate concerns not just about the visual impact but also damage to wildlife and business. Now we learn there's significant damage when it comes to trees."

Ironically, "The revelation came despite the nationalist party boasting about its green credentials, and being involved in a coalition with the Scottish Greens," Scottish Daily Express notes.

"If they're going to say it is better to have wind farms than it is to have forestry, then they must surely have that data. Because, if they don't, I think that would be very concerning, indeed."

"Trees Are Climate Change, Carbon Storage Heroes," the United States Department of Agriculture declares in an article describing how trees remove carbon from the air and store it, because they need it in order to grow.

"Joanie got it wrong: they did 'pave paradise' and they did take down the trees - but, they didn't 'put 'em in a tree museum," a GB News host quipped, quoting the song "Big Yellow Taxi," by Joni Mitchell.

Fauci Files Reveal Pfizer Helped Biden Rig 2020 Election

 Pfizer secretly colluded with Joe Biden's team to help him rig the 2020 election against Trump, according to new Fauci documents.

"On November 7, after the absentee ballots were counted, Joe Biden was declared the winner of the presidential election. It was the very next night that Albert Bourla, Pfizer's CEO, called me away from my neighbors' fire pit to inform me about the game-changing results from the Pfizer mRNA vaccine trial. I finally thought we had truly turned a corner in defeating this terrible disease." Today reports: In another interesting tidbit, Fauci discusses Trump's FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn declaring that he would not go along with the Trump Administration's plan to roll out the vac...

James Ray Epps Breaks Federal Law Lying To FBI Agents, Again, In Never Before Released Leaked Audio: ‘You Are The Boss’

 The Gateway Pundit has obtained more leaked audio of James Ray Epps' providing materially false statements during an abnormally friendly interview with the Federal Bureau of Investigations about his role in the Capitol riot, a crime punishable by up to eight years in prison. Joined by his attorney John Blischak, a former FBI agent, and his wife Robyn Epps during a voluntary March 3, 2021 interview, Epps assured the feds while laughing and cracking jokes that he only traveled from Arizona to Washington, DC to protect his son James Ray Epps Jry and "Try to deescalate" a "Raging" crowd amid a terrorist attack he suspected would transpire involving a bomb. On the 8th, Epps insisted at least fourteen times that he only traveled to DC to "Try to calm them down." Conspicuously, in thousands of hours of January 6 footage, Epps is never seen with his son. Epps claimed Baked Alaska, who served 60 days in prison for protesting at the Capitol, was to blame for in...
