Texas Soaked, Bloomberg Smoked? Lefty Billionaire Blames ‘Climate Denialism’ for Floods
NewsBusters ^ | 07/08/2025 | Joseph Vazquez

Lefty billionaire Michael Bloomberg is back in the spotlight exploiting the disastrous Texas floods to blow a gasket over arguably his most obsessive political issue — you guessed it — climate change.

The anti-American energy media mogul belched out a new op-ed on Bloomberg Opinion pontificating how “The Texas Floods Were Made Worse by Climate Denialism.” No, he wasn’t kidding.

Bloomberg railed about how “[t]he scientific evidence is clear that the more frequent extreme weather we are experiencing is being driven by climate change — and that it’s only going to get worse.” Of course the Texas floods which killed over 100 people couldn’t just be the result of a natural disaster without shoe-horning climate politics into it, right?

But Bloomberg channeled his dubious eco-scare porn to instigate political backlash against Texas’s elected leaders: “[Texas elected officials] owe [the victims’ families] a sincere commitment to righting their deadly wrong, by tackling the problem they’ve turned their backs on for too long: climate change.”

JunkScience.com founder Steve Milloy blasted Bloomberg for his outrageously tone-deaf political hot take in comments to MRC Business. “It's sad to see radical climate activists like Michael Bloomberg trying to exploit the tragic Texas flooding to advance its political agenda.” As Milloy analyzed, “Just for the record: This area of Texas is known for flash floods, extreme rainfall is not correlated with emissions and there hasn't even been any ‘global warming’ over the past five days.”

But Bloomberg clearly saw an opportunity to use the deaths of Texans to drag the climate boogeyman back into the national conversation. “The refusal to recognize that climate change carries a death penalty is sending innocent people, including far too many children, to early graves,” he spewed.

I read in 87 there was a pretty devastating flood in that same area. I guess people denied the climate then too?

Chemtrails, and weather manipulation. Look at the videos of tarps in that area where the rain was blue in color. Like it had been dyed.

Texas is the #1 state in wind and solar electricity in the USA.

Twice as much as California!

“the scientific evidence is clear that the more frequent extreme weather we are experiencing is being driven by climate change “

This is easily refuted by the climate historical record. The last report I wrote said that there were fewer natural disasters now than there have been in the past. This false talking point must be taken away from climate communists.

Just imagine how green the world would be if we had 5 TIMES the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere. It would still only amount to a total of 1/5 of one percent. Tell this to a libtard and they would have to change their diapers.

This catastrophic flood broke a record that was set in the 1930s.

Anything bad or unusual about the weather is Trump's fault. And your fault.

It's a CRISIS, and as with any crisis the solution is a boot stamping on a human face forever.

Let spoiled rotten Mikey Bloomberg spend his billions sending an solar umbrella into orbit around the Earth. He will sign the documents in case his technology fails and causes an Iceball Earth.
