De Blasio: ‘What We’re Seeing Here’ with Isaias ‘Is the Result of Global Warming’
breitbart.com ^ | 8/4/2020 | Ian Hatchett

During a press conference on Tuesday, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio (D) stated that “What we’re seeing here” with Tropical Storm Isaias “and what we’ve been seeing now for years, is the result of global warming.” De Blasio added that global warming is leading to “more and more pressure on coastal areas all around the world” and that “We’re seeing problems in cities all over the world because of global warming.”

After urging New Yorkers to take precautions during the storm, de Blasio said, “Now, let’s talk about the bigger reality. What we’re seeing here, and what we’ve been seeing now for years, is the result of global warming. We’ve been seeing more and more pressure on coastal areas all around the world. Some of you may have been following the horrible flooding in Bangladesh right now. We have a big Bangladeshi community here in this city. We’re seeing problems in cities all over the world because of global warming. This is not an abstraction, especially for New Yorkers after Sandy. As I say, after Sandy, there were no more climate change deniers in New York City. We experienced it. We lived it. We’re not going to ignore it.”

I moved to Maryland ten years ago. After a hurricane blew through our first or second year and killed power for a week, I got a generator. It sure takes up a lot of space in my shed cause it’s never been used.

The storm with the funny name rolled through yesterday. Lots and lots of rain. That’s about it.

I ran to Harbor Freight and bought a pump to clear out some backyard flooding.

Do burning police cars contribute to it as well?

I saw this morning that orange flood restraints had been erected on Manhattan streets to protect the Federal Reserve gold vaults that are below grade and in the flood plain

Let's volunteer to carry out and hold as many gold bars as we can handle in our homes. To help our country in this crisis.

What happens if gold gets wet? Not much that a Bounty paper towel can't solve.

It’s funny to watch stupid talking heads try to pronounce ‘Isaias’.

Instead of the correct way with 3 syllables ( eye-ZAY-us ) they are saying it with 4 syllables ( eye- sah - eee us )

stupid morons...

If you are going to put valuable stuff in the basement, make sure you have a sump pump.

The demon-rats coveted one world government depends on their religion of collective salvation through socialism. We cannot be collectively be saved unless we believe in the second commandment of climate change.

No, it was a Cat 1 hurricane.

By the time it reached New York it was barely a tropical storm. DeBlasio is a poor excuse for a mayor.

They changed the vocabulary a while ago because the reality did not match the story
They started to name tropical storms, they never did that before.
Now they are counting up the named storms.
It all bullshit.
