A top Biden administration official was pressed Monday on the president's recent public claim that global warming is the sole existential threat to humanity, as the Palestinian group Hamas orchestrated militant attacks and kidnappings in Israel.
On "The Story," anchor Martha MacCallum cited continued American financial support for Ukraine following its invasion by Russia, and longtime aid for Israel before queuing up a clip of President Biden speaking during his visit to Hanoi, Vietnam last month for John Kirby, the National Security Council Coordinator for Strategic Communications.
"The only existential threat humanity faces – even more frightening than a nuclear war – is global warming; going above 1.5 degrees in the next 10 years," Biden said.
MacCallum asked Kirby if Biden stands by his comments:
"Absolutely he does," he replied. "Climate change is an existential threat. It actually threatens and is capable of wiping out all human life on earth over time."
Kirby added that addressing that threat doesn't mean the U.S. cannot fulfill its other national security obligations.
"The president believes wholeheartedly that climate change is an existential threat to all of human life on the planet. That's just science… But it doesn't mean that we turn our back on the other challenges facing this country and our allies and partners around the world," he said.
The United States is a sizable enough world power that it can confront multiple challenges at once, he added.
Kirby was also asked about Biden's early lunchtime ‘lid,' which signifies to the press that there are no further public appearances scheduled for the day. He said the announcement did not preclude any business Biden is conducting outside the press' eye.
"A lid means that he doesn't have any more public-facing events. It doesn't mean that the president is not working..."

We are RUN by the MOST EVIL, DEMONIC and MORONIC people in this country.
Kirby does as he’s told by his Marxist superiors. If he didn’t, he would at most be a forgettable history professor at a mid-level state university in flyover country.
This is actually a true statement. The Sun will eventually use up its supply of hydrogen and swell to become a late stage red giant which will incinerate the Earth. We may only have a billion years left.
Even if the worst fantasies of the Global Warming cult were true (and they are not - it is all a hoax as most if not all Freepers know), this would not be true.
Somewhere a cow farted. That is the existential threat.
Yep-
hoards of young Chinese are coming across the border, foreign countries have emptied their insane asylums and prisons and shipped them here to walk across the border, men who are on terrorist watchlists have been captured - how many more have gotten through?????
All you need to know is that Biden’s nuts are being held in a vice by some demonic entity - could it be one who has pictures of every single one of those criminal Bidens in a compromising situation whether it be with drugs, treason or children?
It has to be THAT bad if they are wiling to kill America over it.
Please! Someone help ADUHmiral Kirby. It is not Carbon-DIEoxide that is life threatening! Carbon-dioxide is necessary for a fully functioning planet. The big ball in the sky is what is causing the temperature to increase and decrease. Climate CHANGE is a cyclical process of the planet earth that has been going on since the beginning of time! Kirby needs to quit drinking the glasses of FOOL-Aid!
After Katrina...they said we should expect Cat 5s every year. The next year...we got nothing.
1.5 degrees warmer!!!
We’re all gonna sweat!
I watched that exchange live, and Kirby is a real piece of work. He can’t even defend his boss. He should take bull💩lessons from Karine JeanPierre…
Yeah. I’m thinking he’s gotta really be hating his job right now.
I don’t see “climate change” getting corrected anytime soon, & even if they could, in what way would it be corrected & to what advantage? We always have climate & it always changes by itself. When will the geniuses of the world learn that?
NEVER! It’s ALL ABOUT SCARING AND CONTROLLING US!
