A Huntsville, Alabama, solar panel factory will close after President Joe Biden exempted foreign-made bifacial solar panels from United States tariffs earlier this month.

LG Electronics, a South Korea-based company, announced that it will be closing its Huntsville solar panel manufacturing operation, resulting in the layoffs of about 160 American employees and another 60 Americans who are employed as contract workers.

Executives said they hope to retain as many employees as they can by transitioning them into the company’s other business and manufacturing sectors at its Huntsville campus. Laid-off employees will receive severance packages.

The announcement comes just weeks after Biden decided to exempt foreign-made bifacial solar panels — the overwhelming majority of which come from China — from Section 201 tariffs on solar imports to the United States that were first imposed by former President Trump in January 2018 at a 30 percent rate.

The Coalition for a Prosperous America (CPA) had warned that Biden’s gutting U.S. tariffs on China-made bifacial solar panels would have a devastating impact on America’s solar manufacturing sector.

“China sympathizers may believe that gutting the 201 solar tariffs would not affect the U.S. solar manufacturing industry as long as Congress supports domestic producers. This is flat-out wrong,” CPA Chairman Zach Mottl said in a statement

Building Back Better. Just not for Americans. Great job Brandon.

In an address Wednesday evening, Russian President Vladimir Putin said he has decided to green light military operations in Ukraine.

“I’ve made the decision to conduct a special military operation," Putin said. “Our analysis has concluded that our confrontation with these [Ukrainian] forces in inevitable.”

“A couple of words for those who would be tempted to intervene. Russia will respond immediately and you will have consequences that you never have had before in your history,” he added.

Ukraine has closed its airspace to civil aircraft as Russian leaders are seemingly poised to launch a full-scale invasion of the country.

A NOTAM alert Wednesday evening notified civil aircraft that Ukrainian airspace was closed due to a "potential hazard for civil aviation."

Russia has amassed more than 190,000 troops along the Ukrainian border, the U.S. says.

The CNN team on the ground is hearing several loud explosions near Kyiv, the capital of Ukraine.

It is about 530am in Ukraine

So Putin just declared War.

Biden releases statement on escalating crisis in Ukraine
"The prayers of the entire world are with the people of Ukraine tonight as they suffer an unprovoked and unjustified attack by Russian military forces," President Biden said.

Biden contnued:

"President Putin has chosen a premeditated war that will bring a catastrophic loss of life and human suffering. Russia alone is responsible for the death and destruction this attack will bring, and the United States and its Allies and partners will respond in a united and decisive way. The world will hold Russia accountable.

"I will be monitoring the situation from the White House this evening and will continue to get regular updates from my national security team. Tomorrow, I will meet with my G7 counterparts in the morning and then speak to the American people to announce the further consequences the United States and our Allies and partners will impose on Russia for this needless act of aggression against Ukraine and global peace and security. We will also coordinate with our NATO Allies to ensure a strong, united response that deters any aggression against the Alliance. Tonight, Jill and I are praying for the brave and proud people of Ukraine."

^^^^^^

Paraphrasing, gotta get some shut-eye, later, dudes.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that Ukraine will be imposing martial law in response to the Russian invasion of the country.

“This morning Russia launched a new military operation against our state. This is an unjustified deceitful and cynical invasion," Zelenskyy said.

He continued:

There are strikes on military and other important defense facilities, border units are under attack, the situation in the Donbas has degraded. The Armed Forces of Ukraine, all special and law enforcement agencies of the state are on alert. The National Security and Defense Council is working in an emergency mode. Martial law will be imposed."

"Civilians of Ukraine should stay at home.

And it begins; yet another catastrophic event that would not likely have occurred under Trump. I wonder if the leftist trash infesting our country are happy with themselves. The globalist cabal certainly is.

Guess Pota-joe should have just gone on his little vacation for all the good "jaw-boning" with Putin did.

Anybody else noting how some media sites are taking up Mr Potato Head's chant(s) that the Russian is the reason inflation will continue going up - and not PH's policies?






Oh, and that it's Trump's fault Russia invaded.

Well, at least this administration has its priorities in order, like keeping the mask requirement in airports and setting up fencing around the capitol building in case those bouncy houses set up by the freedom convoy get out of control.

Never fear the Potato-in-Chief will address the nation at 12 noon ET today.

I for one can't wait to see him mumble, slur, whisper-shout and lose his train of thought 3/4 of the way through a sentence as he fancies himself a 21st century FDR

This is the first time I have pulled up White House.gov Live since Trump left. It's saying 1230

Well, maybe this is just a "minor incursion." So we won't have to do anything.

Anyway, no more mean tweets, and that is what's really important.

It was supposed to be 12 noon, that's what I saw all night last night and this morning. They are probably waiting for him to finish his Jello and that shot that peps him up to kick in.
