365. Is The Climate Cult Crumbling?

Show Notes

The Heartland Institute's Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, and Chris Talgo present episode 365 of the In The Tank Podcast. There have been a couple stories that have popped up recently that might point to the fact that the climate cult is falling apart. From Al Gore calling out corporations for "greenwashing" to Rashida Tlaib lashing out at bankers for not cutting off fossil fuel financing, it seems like the "greenies" are turning on each other. Also, YouTube denied our attempt at monetizing our channel, claiming our content is "harmful."
