On her 2:00 p.m. ET hour show on Wednesday, MSNBC anchor Katy Tur predictably exploited Hurricane Florence to push the left’s climate change agenda and condemn “deniers” in the Trump administration. She brought on liberal environmental activist Bill Nye and ex-Clinton administration official Paul Bledsoe to provide even more alarmist rhetoric.
“President Trump says FEMA is ready for Hurricane Florence, but mounting evidence suggests it could incredibly difficult to deal with this disaster if climate change deniers are on the front lines of emergency response,” Tur proclaimed at the top of the segment. She then touted a new study “echoing the findings of previous research showing climate change as the cause of warmer ocean conditions that produce fast, intensifying storms like Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria.”
Tur fretted over the White House policy agenda:
But where does the Trump administration stand on climate change? Well, just yesterday, President Trump rolled back Obama-era mandates blocking rogue methane leaks from and oil and gas wells. Last month, the EPA weakened a rule limiting carbon dioxide pollution from coal-fired power plants. And in July, the agency reduced regulations capping greenhouse gas emissions from automobiles. These rules were all part of Obama’s three-part strategy for combating climate change.
The host turned first to Nye, who climbed atop his usual climate change soapbox:

Hurricanes have existed as long as the earth, but the low information audience at MesSNBC believe anything they hear.
“Dumbass Guy” lol
Yeah, my response-—well it is hurricane season! What, you never heard of a hurricane occurring this time of year??
Like its the first time a hurricane happened!
From the fake news media all you need to learn:
ITS ALL TRUMP’S FAULT!!!!
ahhhh, like there have been hurricanes since forever?
Not to mention “climate change” before human’s existed?
Duh.
uhh…..because we’ve been having hurricanes for as long as we’ve had oceans on this planet? Long before EEEEEEVIL Capitalist Humans began burning fossil fuels.
Liberals are ramping up their finger pointing. Now it’s not just manmade climate change that is causing disasters, it’s the deniers. Specifically, conservatives. Saving the planet now means getting rid of just them.
Whatta steaming pants load.
Joe Bastardi predicted this bump in tropical activity 3 weeks ago based on the current conditions and historical patterns.
The MSM are the only ones making Storms bigger by adding Super, Catastrophic ,Vortex etc etc to them
Because it’s called WEATHER and it’s been happening like FOREVER
Well they could grab some plywood and board up some windows.
I think I see their point.After all it’s “settled science” that there were never any hurricanes/typhoons anywhere on earth before the establishment of the Republican Party.
How long before deniers are made to take life-ending drugs?
Is that a misprint? ;-)
