White supremacist vigilante kills 2 in Kenosha
August 26th, 2020
(FYI, threats however anonymous and hidden are reported, and comments approved so the world can see what ugly jerks you are.)
Kyle Rittenhouse arrested in Illinois for fleeing, and charged with 1st degree Intentional Homicide, and more, in Wisconsin:
READ THE WISCONSIN CRIMINAL COMPLAINT HERE:
Contact the Wisconsin Attorney General and urge a full investigation of not only these murders and shootings, but the ties between Kenosha militia (and others) and Kenosha Police Dept., their coordination with militia in driving protesters towards them, and the role of militia and inciters to bring this about. Urge a U.S. Dept. of Justice investigation into Kenosha Police Department. https://www.doj.state.wi.us/ag/contact
Suspect Charged with Murder After 2 Shot Dead at Kenosha Protest
- Wisconsin DOJ 608-266-1221
- Gov. Tony Evers 414-227-4344
See him walking away? You’ll see that in the Military Vangard video below. And after that first shooting, this:

Here’s another:
And Kenosha Police Department issue this:
Looking for him? Kyle Rittenhouse, a/k/a Kyle Lewis, of Antioch, Illinois. They had him after the shooting, and they had him before, right here:
“We appreciate you guys, we really do!“
And some people wonder why people are out in the streets.
Here’s Kyle Rittenhouse a/k/a Kyle Lewis, of Antioch, Illinois:
Kyle Rittenhouse, charged in Kenosha protest homicides, considered himself militia
Police press conference, OMFD, complete with passive voice and claim that Rittenhouse was there “to resolve the situation,” another OMFD:
Here he is in 2017:
Apparently Rittenhouse’s mother drove him up to Kenosha. Is that who he was calling after he shot that first person who fell between the cars, saying “I just killed someone” and she came and picked him up (how did he get back to Illinois otherwise?). Sounds like she’s an accessory:

Here’s a photo from that rally:
Read the missive below, and recall the video above where the Kenosha Guard is trying to be all chummy with the police, and Paul Swick, local III%, going back and forth with Kenosha Guard. fb has taken down the Kenosha Guard and Armed Citizens… pages and posts of their “event” for last night. Scroll down for Infowars promotion!
Militia guy said cops told him, “Do you know what the cops told us today? We’re going to push them to you, because you can deal with them, then we’re going to leave.”

Infowars promotion of the militia recruiting:
The Kenosha Guard, a local militia, is making a call-to-arms for “any patriots willing to take up arms and defend our city tonight from evil thugs.” The groups Facebook warns of potential future destruction to the neighborhood, claiming that there is “no doubt they’re currently planning on the next part of the city tonight!” [fb or the Kenosha Guard has taken the link down]
The Facebook event scheduled for 8PM at Civic Center Park today, outlines the agenda asking for “Armed Citizens to Protect our Lives and Property.” [fb or the Kenosha Guard has taken the link down]
This may have been inspired by other boogaloo movements such as in Michigan, but subsequently a result of the destruction of private property. A few brave locals came out armed last night to protect their businesses in Kenosha. The armed militia attempted to stop looters and rioters.
PJM’s State of Market for 1st 1/2 of 2020
August 14th, 2020
PJM’s “independent” Monitoring Analytics (don’t know how independent it really is) has released its State of the Market report for the first two quarters of 2020, and there are some most interesting observations in this report. First, here’s the report:
The intro is astounding for the admissions about the electric market, decreased demand, and coal’s role:
That’s from page 2 of the PJM 2Q SoM Report.
Much of this new world is due to COVID, but the changes you see were in the works prior to COVID, which hit primarily starting 2nd Quarter. Demand has been lessening for a long time (the big increase circa 2003-2005 was when PJM territory expanded). Note that unlike MISO, it’s not strictly summer peaking, three peaks were in winter!
The histrionic squeals of “freezing in the dark on a respirator without a job” … or is it “in an incubator without a job,” either way, those fears did not materialize, and with the billions of dollars in transmission based on those hyped-up fears, where are we now? Another day older and deeper in debt…
And if you need wallpaper, do put up the LMP maps:

AFCL Complaint forwarded to OAH for hearing
August 12th, 2020
Association of Freeborn County Landowners filed a Complaint with the Public Utilities Commission against Commissioner John Tuma and Chair Katie Sieben last week.
The PUC responded with this… oh my… and an Affidavit from John Tuma, he DID contact a Freeborn County Commissioner about pre-empting the township’s Ordinance and local control:
And under the statute, Minn. Stat. §216A.037, the PUC must refer it to the Office of Administrative Hearings:
The administrative law judge assigned to the ex parte complaint proceeding by the Office of Administrative Hearings shall conduct a hearing investigation and shall issue a report within 30 days after the matter is referred. If the administrative law judge determines that the report cannot be properly completed within that time period, the judge shall report that fact to the commission within the 30-day period and shall file a final report within a reasonable time thereafter, no later than 60 days after the referral to the Office of Administrative Hearings.
Minn. Stat. §216A.03
… so today, it was referred. GOOD!
Why? Well, this is about the July 16, 2020 meeting, the one where you just have to listen to the video – yeah, we’ve got the transcript, but the video just conveys so much more:
AFCL v. PUC & others
August 5th, 2020
On June 10, 2020, Association of Freeborn County Landowners filed a Complaint against the Public Utilities Commission and four wind projects: Freeborn Wind, Plum Creek Wind, Buffalo Ridge Wind and Three Waters Wind:
AFCL brought this suit under MERA, the Minnesota Environmental Rights Act, which gives anyone standing to sue, and sue we did, seeking:
- A declaratory order that the state’s permitting of Large Wind Energy Conversion Projects is not in compliance with the Minnesota Environmental Policy Act;
- A declaratory order that the Public Utilities Commission has not complied, and must comply, with the mandate of Minn. Stat. §216F.05 to develop rules for environmental review of wind projects;
- An order that the Public Utilities Commission promulgate rules for wind siting and environmental review;
- A remand for additional proceedings as required by law and the Commission’s rules.
- AFCL also seeks a temporary injunction pending these directives and actions by the Commission. Minn. Stat. §116B.10.
All the Defendants have brought Motions to Dismiss, and today I received reams of paper with their arguments:
Filings from the PUC:
Filings from NSP & Plum Creek:
Filings from Buffalo Ridge Wind and Three Waters Wind:
++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Onward toward the Motion Hearing on September 2, 2020! Lots of reading and writing to do in response to these, and lots of writing to do for our Motion for Temporary Injunction!
