On Monday, Fox News host Shepard Smith accused the GOP of making climate change a “political issue,” declaring “it’s science.”
Mediaite picked up those comments from Smith, who reported on the recently released government climate change report. The report predicted that rising temperatures could cost the U.S. economy hundreds of billions of dollars and cause premature deaths, including deaths from starvation, mosquito-borne disease, heat exhaustion, flooding, and other natural disasters by the year 2090. The report urges action to reduce fossil fuel use and greenhouse gas emissions.
“Heat waves are getting stronger, floods are growing larger, wildfires are obliterating more of America’s landscape. It’s because of climate change that’s largely man-made. Our burning of fossil fuels is damaging planet Earth, and the time to stop it is running out,” Smith said.
“By the end of the century, climate change could shrink the U.S. economy by hundreds of billions of dollars,” he continued. “That is the warning in a new report released on Friday, ahead of schedule, by the Trump administration.”
Smith summarized several of the report’s findings and attacked Republicans.
“The climate science is accepted science,” Smith said. “Governments across the nation are spending billions preparing for what is to come. The U.S. military, too, billions of dollars. This is not a political issue. It’s science. But some have made it political — especially Republicans. And as a result, a lot of folks have missed this report. It was dropped, as I said, ahead of schedule, on Black Friday, when a lot of Americans are busy shopping, eating Thanksgiving leftovers,

Is Shepard Smith interested in reporting on the criticisms of the government’s report? Or is his definition of “fair and balanced” attacking Republicans for refusing to implement new government policies in response to climate alarmism?

Oh, you make way too much sense because you have an EDUCATION! Naughty, naughty! You have to rely on your imagination in our modern world, where you make up your fantasy as you go, like the media and the politicians do, where the skill of lying is a necessity on your resume. That way, you do not have to be scared of what is real and needing to be faced on a regular basis by most real people like, how do we get and keep a job, how can we afford a family, how can we pay the bills to meet our basic needs, will our health care become too expensive for us, can we afford a college education for our children. If you are a Millennial, you might wonder when you will be able to get out of your parent's basement into a place of your own. For some of us, the war against our President is the biggest threat our nation faces, for there are way too many cowards in public office to keep us safe from seditions rising everywhere we look. Hope and pray. That is what we on the outside looking in do each and every day.
So glad I decided to leave OAN on the TV for the last week....refreshing for true news to be aired.
“So glad I decided to leave OAN on the TV for the last week.”
We’ve been hanging there, too, alternating between there and NewsMax. Liz Wheeler at 9 p.m. on OAN is outstanding! I don’t know why she hasn’t gone big-league, although I’m glad she has stayed “pure” — unlike Tomi Lahren who stated at OAN and now is aligned with Fox.
You can’t fight mother nature.
Does anyone really watch this clown any more?
He is a full leftist,,,Up is Down, right is wrong,//
Or as written a couple thousand years ago
Woe to those who call evil good and good evil,
Shep - and other libs - can do something PERSONALLY to “combat global warming”.
Every day, they can hold their breath for ONE hour, to reduce CO2 emissions. Just ONE measly hour, don’t breathe, Shep. “MAKE a Difference”!!!! “GIVE something Back”!!!!
Lead by example, and “speak truth to power” by not exhaling for one hour....
The Left tries to prohibit all dissent.
“We” are “politicizing” Marxists’ takeover of the US economy under the guise of “protecting the Earth”.
“We” are passing “bathroom bills” designed to overturn the “bathroom bills” THEY passed demanding that small businesses let men who identify (that day) as women pee in the ladies’ room and watch women and girls undress in the ladies’ lockerroom.
Scientists can’t agree on what has already happened.
And science cannot accurately predict the future.
They can make hunches and guesses just like the rest of us but nobody can tell what will happen tomorrow.
Plus, shep is a homo, Jim.
“Accepted Science”. There is no such thing.
Exactly. Scientists are still questioning and testing Einstein’s theories from well over a century ago, and nobody is criticizing them.
That is pathetic. The gal cant barely put her oar into the “raging water”.
People should get these clips and pictures out to the general public for a WAKE UP call.
Sheppard Smith at the last Bill Clinton event.
I can’t hit FF fast enough when this assholes face appears!!!
I don’t know about science ...but a fact is that not one of the gloom and doom predictions made by these geniuses has come true!!!
When people try to spread propaganda as truth.
Suggest you look up Aristotle and Eratosthenes.
