Super Tuesday Victories, Global Liberty Advocacy, and Renewable Energy Fraud Exposed

On March 6, 2024, Trent Loos, Ted Harvey, Izabela Patriota, and Lorne Levy joined the show. Exposes the false claim that the Super Bowl used 100% renewable energy, revealing Nevada Energy generates most power from natural gas Announces candidacy for CD4 Congressional seat following Ken Buck’s retirement Describes LOLA’s mission to spread individual liberty and free market values to women across 40 countries Reports on current.

Exposing the Super Bowl Renewable Energy Lie

Start listening at 72:26 – Hour 2

Trent Loos demolishes the media narrative that the Super Bowl at Allegiant Stadium ran on 100% renewable energy. Nevada Energy, owned by Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway, generates 58% of its electricity from natural gas and 5% from coal, making the renewable claim physically impossible. Loos tracked down Nevada Energy’s communications director Megan Delaney, who initially engaged but then ghosted him when pressed on how electricity from 641,000 solar panels could be segregated from fossil fuel sources.

The math exposes the scam. If solar power with battery storage actually powered the Super Bowl, the cost would have been $2.50 per kilowatt hour, compared to the national average of 15 cents. Battery storage alone adds $1.30-$1.50 per kilowatt hour. Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway collected $3.5 billion in wind subsidies last year, with $62 billion allocated through the Inflation Reduction Act for solar investment tax credits and $51 billion for wind production tax credits.

“Warren Buffett is literally accumulating wealth by taking it from the peasants. And this week my big thing has been Catherine the Great, and I studied what she did as ruler of Russia from 1764 until she passed in 94. And her whole concept was the same thing, to establish this elite.”

Trent Loos, Sixth-Generation Farmer and Rancher

When pressed about the stadium’s five-hour battery backup, Loos questions whether such a battery even exists, noting that all the lithium in the world would only provide four hours of storage capacity for the entire United States. The renewable energy push costs taxpayers billions while enriching connected elites like Buffett.

Congressional District 4 and the Immigration Crisis

Start listening at 16:50 – Hour 1

Ted Harvey explains his entry into the CD4 race after Ken Buck’s retirement announcement. With 13 years in the Colorado legislature, including five in the state house and eight in the state senate, Harvey brings deep conservative credentials forged in the Reagan White House at age 22. He ran two major political action committees supporting President Trump and fighting the establishment.

Harvey identifies codifying the Remain in Mexico policy as his top legislative priority. Under Trump, this policy brought illegal immigration to a trickle by requiring asylum seekers to wait outside the border. Biden reversed it on day one, creating the current crisis. Denver now has the highest per capita illegal alien population of any American city, with Mayor Mike Johnston’s sanctuary policies overwhelming city resources.

“We’re not the extremists. The Democrats want to have abortion on demand when the baby is being born, right? That’s extreme. They want to kill seven-pound babies. The Democrats want to have open borders where you see people from all over the world streaming across our border by the millions. That’s extreme.”

Ted Harvey, CD4 Congressional Candidate

Harvey remains optimistic about November despite the challenges. He is the only CD4 candidate going exclusively through the caucus and assembly process rather than petitioning on, demonstrating his commitment to grassroots party activists.

Liberty Principles Empower Women Globally

Start listening at 34:43 – Hour 1

Izabela Patriota shares the mission of Ladies of Liberty Alliance, operating across 40 countries and 14 U.S. states to spread individual liberty and free market values to women. Unlike traditional feminism with its Marxist roots in early 20th century labor movements, LOLA teaches that government intervention hurts rather than helps women’s causes.

Patriota’s personal journey from Brazilian lawyer to American liberty advocate began when a massive corruption scandal at Petrobras, the state-owned oil monopoly, exposed the failures of government control. A lone classical liberal professor recommended Hayek, which led her to the Cato Institute and eventual immigration to the United States. In Kenya, LOLA members protest female genital mutilation, a practice still embedded in local culture despite being illegal.

“The answer for every issue that we face is not going to be solved by the government. Indeed, it’s the opposite. If there is something that they can do, it’s to make our lives worse. So let’s pray and let’s hope to fix our own problems by our own and by our communities.”

Izabela Patriota, Ladies of Liberty Alliance

The organization runs book clubs introducing women to Ayn Rand, Stuart Neil, and Hayek in countries from India to Kenya. International Women’s Day on March 8th provides an opportunity to reclaim the holiday from its communist origins and redirect the conversation toward individual liberty.

Housing Market and Mortgage Update

Start listening at 63:50 – Hour 2

Lorne Levy reports that homebuyers continue purchasing despite rates near 7%, following the strategy of marrying the home and dating the rate. Federal Reserve Chairman Powell’s congressional testimony signals potential rate cuts in the second half of 2024, though all action remains data-dependent. The 10-year Treasury in the 420s has pushed mortgage rates higher.

Colorado housing values remain strong with appraisals coming in at or above expected values. Unlike the peak market of recent years with bidding wars creating appraisal gaps, current purchases see valuations holding. Appraisal costs have risen significantly, now ranging from $600-$900 compared to $300-$350 years ago.

“From the deals I’ve been working on, I have not yet had any issues with appraisals. They’re coming in every bit of what people think their home might be worth when they’re telling me their estimate ahead of time.”
