Climate, Energy, and The Midterm Blue Wave — The Climate Realism Show #224
Episode 883
Friday, 6 November, 2026
The Republican Party got a good old-fashioned butt-whuppin’ in the midterm elections on Tuesday as Democrats swept both houses of Congress making Donald Trump the lamest of lame duck presidents. The Democratic “blue wave” was so strong, they took statewide offices in places once considered safely “red,” such as Texas. Will this remarkable political turn just two years after a similar “red wave” thwart the progress climate realists have made with sensible, science-based policy in Trump’s second term? Climate change wasn’t a big topic of discussion on the campaign trail, but taking “climate action” is always on top of mind for a now-ascendent Democratic Party.On Episode #224 of The Climate Realism Show, we will also cover some of the Crazy Climate News of the Week, including a plan to put a giant umbrella in space to give shade to a warming earth, a claim that climate change is leaving domestic violence victims more vulnerable, and the notion that climate change caused by humans using fossil fuels is threatening the American Dream.Join The Heartland Institute’s Anthony Watts, Sterling Burnett, Linnea Lueken, Jim Lakely and “The Carbon King,” Jason Isaac, CEO of the American Energy Institute.
