    The clock sure wasn’t at 100 seconds to midnight under Obama now was it?

      Only fools take the Doomsday Clock seriously. It isn’t science. It’s propaganda.

      Perfect for people who say they “believe in science” and never actually think about how stupidly fake the Doomsday Clock really is. (Maybe it’s actually 93 seconds to midnight. Or maybe 37 minutes. Or an hour and a half. If they published any of those numbers, who could disagree? After all, they are SCIENTISTS!?

      Shame on Insurance Journal for publishing such silly nonsense.

        LOL yeah they’re only atomic scientists, that’s like what a community college degree? The amount of garbage you would expect us to swallow to buy your ridiculous narratives is laughable as always, Craig LOL

          Whatever happened to we have only 12 years by our noted genius AOC? What happened to the Polar Ice Caps that were supposed to be melted entirely by 2014 as espoused by our noted genius Al Gore? What happened to all those disgraced scientists who falsified their data? All garbage of the first degree..

            AOC is not a scientist. Gore is not a scientist. Cite a source for disgraced climate scientists who falsified their data. I have a source for disgraced climate scientists who got it wrong.

            Did you know that of the 3% of published papers on climate change that deny man-made climate change are all flawed in some way.

            “Every single one of those analyses had an error—in their assumptions, methodology, or analysis—that, when corrected, brought their results into line with the scientific consensus.”

            97% got it right.

            LOL I’m guessing that’s Polar, and he does not realize he just agreed with the 97% of papers published on man-made climate change that point to man-made climate change being a reality. Ace reading comprehension bud LOL

            The 12 years aren’t up yet, and the icecaps ARE melting.

            Huh, Agent’s usual angry remarks are nowhere to be found after Harry posts a logical response. Wonder why?

          Iran now has $150B of capital to use to develop nukes. Who gave it to them?

    this kind of reminds me of “2 Minutes to Midnight” by Iron Maiden (but in this case it would be “One minute and a Half to Midnight”, which isn’t nearly as catchy). Great song. Great band. They’re boomers but nobody rocks harder or puts on a better show. Saw ’em live last summer in Philly. Stood on the floor, got about 30 feet or so from the stage. Realized I’m too old to watch a show from the floor anymore.

      That’s awesome. I’ve recently been trying to get my daughter into maiden. If she asks, Number of the Beast is about the beast from Beauty and the Beast. So far it’s working.

    Atomic Scientists be damned! We think it is closer to midnight than they think. All of our new accelerators are working wonderfully, thanks to the extra $150B we got from Heinz-Kerry, our new friend James Taylor, and Obama, some of which was delivered in cash payment on pallets during the middle of the night. The rest was given by unfreezing bank accounts that were frozen upon enactment of sanctions.
