‘We gotta leave you in the ground’: Biden Energy Sec Granholm appeared in 2018 video singing about end of gasoline, fossil fuels – ‘Gasoline, gasoline, the world’s aflame’

Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm made a cameo in a music video produced by environmentalist group Coltura for their anti-fossil fuels song “Gasoline, Gasoline (The World’s Aflame).” The video shows Granholm singing the group’s song, the lyrics of which call for leaving fossil fuels — dubbed “fossil fools” in the song — “in the ground.”

Granholm’s participation in the video, as well as Coltura playing a part in crafting legislation, were first revealed in a Monday reportby NPR. The report came shortly after Granholm laughed off a question about increasing domestic oil production, calling it “hilarious.”

The Video features climate activist Bill McKibben and others. The lyrics include: 
“Gasoline, gasoline, you are driving me insane. Gasoline, gasoline, the world’s aflame…We had a good run, but now were done….We gotta leave you in the ground.”
Energy Sec Granholm can’t suppress her smiles over gasoline shortages – Claims ‘supply crunch’ NOT ‘shortage’ – Thomas Lifson: “Don’t you realize it’s good for you to learn to get along without fossil fuels? Did you realize that if you drive an electric car, this wouldn’t be a problem? Watch as a reporter’s question on whether the shutdown would “speed up” the transition to green energy yields utterly` inappropriate (and chilling, if you think about it) smiles from Granholm…Sacrifices are going to have to be made, and it’s the little people who must make them. Don’t expect Granholm to take the bus to work or swear off private jets..And don’t call what’s going on a ‘gasoline shortage’! That’s too reminiscent of Jimmy Carter. Call it a ‘supply crunch’! She’s got her glasses on to show how concerned and well informed she is, but the smiles still sneak through.”

Flashback 1975: Obama Science Czar John Holdren warned U.S. ‘threatened’ by ‘the hazards of too much energy’ – Flashback 1975: Obama Science Czar John Holdren Said Real Threat to USA Is Cheap Energy: ‘The U.S. is threatened far more by the hazards of too much energy, too soon, than by the hazards of too little energy, too late.’

Holdren laments the masses driving to the store to get beer! Holdren: “In a society that uses its 5,000-pound automobiles for half-mile round trips to the market to fetch a six-pack of beer, consumes the beer in buildings that are overcooled in summer and overheated in winter, and then throws the aluminum cans away at an energy loss equivalent to a third of a gallon of gasoline per six-pack, this ‘primitive existence’ argument strikes me as the most offensive kind of nonsense.”

Biden Treasury nominee Saule Omarova seeks to ‘bankrupt’ coal, oil & gas companies: ‘We want them to go bankrupt if we want to tackle climate change’– Via Newsweek: Born in Kazakhstan when it was part of the Soviet Union, she tweeted in 2019, “say what you will about (the) old USSR, there was no gender pay gap there. Market doesn’t always ‘know best.’”

Fox News: Naming the coal, oil and gas industries, specifically, Omarova said “a lot” of the “small players” in those industries “are going to probably go bankrupt in short order,” adding: “At least we want them to go bankrupt if we want to tackle climate change, right?” …

Omarova: “For example for certain troubled industries and firms that are in transitioning,” she said. “Here, what I’m thinking about is primarily the coal industry and oil and gas industry. A lot of the smaller players in that industry are going to probably go bankrupt in short order, at least we want them to go bankrupt if we want to tackle climate change.” … She also said that in such a scenario, the National Investment Authority could take over the management of those companies, “basically leading them through restructuring to a new technological basis.” …

The Cornell University law professor, who has been nominated to lead the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, first made the remarks during a February “Social Wealth Seminar” event hosted by the Jain Family Institute, a nonprofit research organization. …

AAF founder Tom Jones condemned Omarova’s comments in a statement to Fox News. “Calling to bankrupt the fossil fuel industry that drives nearly our entire economy is dangerously misinformed,” Jones said. “Yet the Biden administration is nominating zealots like Saule Omarova to serve in our government as they attempt to destroy American energy jobs and stifle innovation.”
