Governor Brown criticizes President Trump for climate change position as California burns
CBS News ^ | 1/26/2018 | Hidden Author

Posted on 01/26/2018 6:27:44 AM PST by EagleUSA

California is reeling from its most destructive wildfire season ever, exacerbated Governor Jerry Brown says, by the effects of climate change. Brown says the fires show President Trump is making a mistake by ignoring the facts of global warming. Governor Brown speaks to Bill Whitaker for a report to be broadcast on 60 Minutes, Sunday, Dec. 10, at 7:00 p.m., ET/PT.

Brown told Whitaker that President Trump is wrong to withdraw the U.S. from the Paris climate agreement and misguided for calling it a bad deal for America. "That's a preposterous idea, not even a shred of truth in that statement," Brown said. "I don't think President Trump has a fear of the Lord, the fear of the wrath of God, which leads one to more humility... and this is such a reckless disregard for the truth and for the existential consequences that can be unleashed."

Every time this liberal parasite opens his mouth, his agenda for Californians comes out. Scam, taxation, illegal voting base, trouble making for Trump, gross neglect of California needs, and buying leftist votes.

***WARNING***

CBS = Complete Bull Sh#t

Don’t believe these Lying Leftist Media outlets that proved themselves during the 2016 campaign to be operatives of the DNC and intentional liars. They are presumed to be lying and we should presume what they publish is a lie. The presumption can only be rebutted with the outlet providing clear and convincing evidence they are not lying.

Why don’t we follow Trump’s lead here on FR? See what the liars are saying, but don’t repeat it using the Lying leftist outlet as the source. Let’s limit posting headlines from these wretched Lying Leftist outlets. If this story is true and has some redeeming value, at least get the story from a reasonably reliable source, not from a known Lying Leftist operative posing as a “news” organization.

Why not post the TRUTH about the lies? You don't have to use the liar as the source to post a headline that alerts readers to a published lie. Use yourself as the source or a reasonably reliable source that addresses what the Lying Leftist source is saying. That way you have a headline and a source that your readers can reasonably rely on and they go away more informed about the lie AND the truth. You’ve done the Patriotic Right a service. Much better than the mindless repetition of lying sources and their lying headlines.

They tried to blame Reagan for AIDS because he wouldn’t “recognize the facts” of the disease, or of homosexuality (I’m not sure what exactly they wanted him to “recognize,” or what difference his “recognition” would have made).

Now they’re doing the same thing with Global Warming, only now it’s PDJT they want “recognition” from.

from what i understand... burning logs puts as much co2 into the atmosphere as letting the timber decay over time... but the difference is time.

this still doesn’t change that brown is an idiot and california will be history soon.

Brown would’t know the truth if he had a head-on collusion with it. Brown and his Leftist buddies have nothing to do with the truth, only with their agenda of Global Totalitarian Government and will use any lying, deadly means to get there.

I find it best to try to blame Brown for the fires, not putting out the fires and then for all of the CO2 released this year in Calif. on his watch.

Brown has learned how to believe several contradictory things, all at once. It is an essential skill for Progressives.

Everything is climate change.

It is completely non-falsifiable, and therefore not science.

No matter what happens, it can be called climate change.

If Nicolas Maduro and Kim Jong-un had a baby, and that baby went on to become governor of California, that state would be in precisely the same shape it’s in now.

Kalifornia sure knows how to pick ‘em. The rat-bastards that run the place are bound and determined to turn it into a s***thole.

Governor Brown criticizes President Trump for climate change position as California burns

Gov Moonbeam: You know, when I was watching about 15 European CEOs at The President's luncheon yesterday talk about what their companies did, how much they already had invested in America, and the huge sums they planned to invest, not once did I hear even a peep about "climate change" (and I seriously doubt that kalifornia is even on their lists of potential investment locations in America). Now make yourself useful and fetch me a plastic straw!

It a shame that this type cognitive dissonance isn’t painful. Very painful.

Note to Brown: Get off your butt and go clear the brush and dead wood before the next fire, and fire all the government agencies that don’t wont you to do that. Then quit making “climate change” the bogeyman for what ails California. The real culprit is your political party in California.

Perhaps we should take every federal dollar away from California and give it to Paris. Maybe that would make Governor Brown happy.
