Can't he just do it by fiat?

It isn't even fiat. There's no cap on the budget for over a year. He can just issue an executive order and print the money.

If this idea isn’t DOA I’ll be PO’d.

[Gaffer]

So. My main question is, “where in the Boehner/McConnell utter-capitulation budget” does this particular partisan expenditure fall?

[skinkinthegrass]

hasn't pResident 0'B@$t@rd, stolen enough already?

[al baby]

The bigger Question is who gets the funny money?

It's the perfect fund for when global warming starts melting the heaping piles of snow: a slush fund.

>"Weather practically everywhere is being caused by climate change," Holdren said.

This is so stupid on the surface, I think I lost 20 IQ points just reading it. I assume the next thing we will hear is that the climate is better in wealthy areas so we need to pay our fair share to help poor neighborhoods where the weather is bad.

He’s the Pied Piper of OPM.

He can do anything he wants.

“$1B climate change fund”

AKA, 2016 Dem party campaign fund. This money will be marked for “outreach”, “promotion”, “communication”, etc. All of which boils down to leftist advertising.

I guarantee it.

I smell a brand new EO. Or is clown even bothering to write and issue EOs anymore?

[RedMDer]

I wish someone had the guts to say that in a news conference.

Pfft. In what decade has California NOT experienced drought? Global warming my ass!

Multi-Year Droughts of Large-Scale Extent Since 1900: 1918-1920, 1923-1926, 1928-1935, 1947-1950, 1959-1962, 1976-1977, 1987-1992, 2000-2002, 2007-2009 — Source (www.water.ca.gov)

If this idiot can convince Americans we are facing “Global Warming” after this winter, he is in the wrong job. He could do much better selling using cars and real estate.

End Climate Inequality!
Some places have too much heat and others too much cold!
Some places have too much rain while others have little!
Redistribute the meteorological wealth!

Sounds like a slush fund for Washington approved senate candidates.

[Sub-Driver]

Yep...........
