In The Tank

The Heartland Institute's Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, Justin Haskins, and Chris Talgo present episode 397 of the In The Tank Podcast. We have seen the ruling elites come after a number of things under the justification of Climate Change. We've discussed bans on gas-powered cars, gas stoves, and other products. Well now, they are coming for your appliances. A new Biden proposal will seek to ensure you refrigerator, dishwasher, and washer and dryer are properly "green." Also, the ITT crew looks into reports from the U.N. that promise a "new phase of accelerated progress." What might this so-called "U.N. 2.0" look like?
