given NO-ONE denies CLIMATE CHANGE, why does Scaramucci need to come out with this nonsense? on CNN, no less!
31 Dec: Politico: DAVID COHEN: Scaramucci: Trump doesn’t deny climate change
BScaramucci defended Trump’s (Twitter) remarks, telling CNN’s Dana Bush on “State of the Union” that he was not a denier of climate change, just an opponent of the Paris climate accord. Earlier this year, Trump withdrew the United States from the agreement, which is designed to combat global warming.
“I think you guys should ask him directly if he’s a climate change denier or not. I think you will find you will be surprised by that answer,” he said of Trump.
“He didn’t want to just sign it and go along with the crowd,” said Scaramucci, who said he expected the president to be proved right on the issue: “My prediction is, is that some time at the end of 2018, people will look back at him and say, wow, he had a lot of common sense by getting out of that climate accord.”
Scaramucci also joked to Bash: “It is freezing here on this beautiful Sunday morning.”...
Scaramucci also said: “Washington has this magnificent way of finding scandals to hit people with to distract them from their agendas. The great news about the president is: He’s undistracted, he’s undeterred, and I think he is going to have a phenomenal 2018.”

31 Dec: NY Post: Scaramucci: Trump’s view on climate change will ‘surprise’ you
By Marisa Schultz
Asked whether Trump agrees with scientists that climate change is a real, manmade problem, Scaramucci demurred.
“I’m not going to answer that for him. But, more specifically, I think what he’s really saying in that tweet is that that deal, the Paris accord, there was something wrong in that deal as it related to the United States,” Scaramucci said, noting he talked to the president “last Monday.”...
Scaramucci said he left a mark by making on-camera press briefings the norm because it’s important for the media to check people in power.
“I think we have to be very, very cautious with people that we give power to, because they can run amok and they can get overzealous with it,” he said.

In the beautiful Emmett Valley, Idaho
24f
4 and falling in Indianapolis.
We had a white Christmas here in northern Indiana. It has stayed white and got even whiter on Friday, and baby, it’s cold outside. 10 now, -6 forecast for tonight.
:)
Absolute zero wouldn’t do that :)
(hope they don't run out !)
It’s colder than a Mother-in-Law’s kiss....
I remember Anding. I came to Barksdale from 8AF on Guam, following the flag. Not sure what Chuck did in the Comm Sq, he was not the Commander. He went to Air Command and Staff College from there and stuck me with his Cub Pack. Dr White was a trip. You’d swear he was just an old country farmer but at the time was the south’s leading expert in sugar cane diseases... real dry sense of humor. Half the time you’d miss what his point as until a couple seconds later. Good memories.
Lord I got those Birmingham Blues....
Has LakeGeorge frozen over?
12 in Springfield, MO, down from 17 high today. Tonight and next 2 nights will be minus 2, minus 4, & 0 they say.
64 sunny
Lol....wrong Birmingham.
Currently an even 0° at the coal-fired power plant at Washingtonville, PA
-
I’m in PA, but an hour or two east of you, and it’s 0° here, too. Well, actually about -10, since I’m up on a mountain and it’s always 10 degrees colder here. I can also hear the wind blowing outside, and the windows don’t seem to be doing a very good job of keeping the cold out.
We need some global warming, and FAST!!!
-16 at my sister’s, -18 at the farm. Central AB
I....deny "AGW"!
You are down there observing/ counting the Monarchs? I’ve read about that. Cool.
13, and dropping
Started the day at -6 then made it to 0 now at -1 on the way to -11 in Olean NY. Gets cold in the valleys inland from Lake Erie and Lake Ontario.
