As Hurricane Milton threatens catastrophic damage in Florida, the Georgia Republican suggested on X that such storms could be engineered by humans.
As President Joe Biden delivered a stark warning Wednesday about the dangerous hurricane barreling toward Florida, he shot down misinformation about the storm, including one particular conspiracy theory propagated by Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene.
“Marjorie Taylor Greene, the congresswoman from Georgia, is now saying the federal government is literally controlling the weather, we’re controlling the weather. It’s beyond ridiculous. It’s so stupid. It’s got to stop,” Biden said in televised remarks at the White House.

“Dems control the weather to manufacture storms and wipe out republicans”
And then in the next breath
“People don’t exert enough control over things to be able to influence climate!”
The Whitehouse needs a competent and derisive science explainer. Someone that can explain in simple terms the amount of force you’d need to stop a hurricane compared to the entire arsenal of WMDs on the planet, and how stupid the conspiracies are.
Make the village idiots feel like idiots again. Not empowered outside the box thinkers.
Wasting your time explaining this at a low enough grade level that the people who believed it would understand is part of what the likes of MtG want, wasting hours or days of effort to refute a lie made in seconds. You are also reliant on people actually engaging with the content and believing the content when they live in their own alternate information reality divorced from the laws of physics and actual math.
Whats needed is actual punishments for spreading such bullshit in the first place, stop the source of the disinformation.
Maybe you then have them explain about patterns and how “it” has historically spewed lies so likely will do so more.
I vote Randall Monroe or Derek from Veritasium. Although I would not wish the nonsense that would come with being in a government cabinet position on either of them.
But her research was peer reviewed by Alex Jones
Being so stupid is unfortunately a core value of the Republican party and it’s members.
Referring to Marjorie Taylor Greene as “it” isn’t very nice
She is a beacon of fuckin sunshine. So I can see why I care what that cunt thinks.
If she tripped into a pile of cactus and then into lemon juice while becoming paralyzed I still don’t think it’s a cruel enough fate for such a vile human.
I think there once was a time when we’d call for the men with the butterfly nets for the likes of Empty G.
gonna be using Empty G now, that’s excellent.
I still call her Margarine.
Why have I never thought of this before?!? I’m adding Empty G to my list that also includes Rhonda Sandtits
Georgia why do you keep electing the missing link
that’s what he would say /s
If the president could really control the weather he’d make sure to only hit red states (and that ladies house for exposing him).

He didn’t even slam it. Smh my head.
