Biden labels people ‘brain dead’ to doubt ‘climate crisis’ fueled Hurricane Helene: ‘Put politics aside’

President Biden called on Americans Wednesday to “put politics aside” to focus on Hurricane Helene recovery efforts — moments before stepping on his own message by saying that anyone who doubts climate change’s role in the disaster “must be brain dead.”

“In a moment like this, we put politics aside, at least we should put it all aside, and we have here,” the retiring 81-year-old president said during a recovery briefing in Raleigh, NC.

“There are no Democrats or Republicans, there are only Americans, and our job is to help as many people as we can, as quickly as we can, and as thoroughly as we can.”

The consoler-in-chief, seated next to the Tar Heel State’s Democratic governor, Roy Cooper, and emergency officials after an aerial tour of the Asheville area, pivoted moments later to an attack on the mostly Republican skeptics about the role of fossil fuel use in severe weather.

“Nobody can deny the impact of [the] climate crisis anymore — at least I hope they don’t. They must be brain dead if they do,” Biden jabbed.

Hey Joe, isn’t that a Pot/Kettle statement?

Joe and his puppeteer 0bama both have beachfront property.

I'm just sayin'.

Xiden is too brain dead to know what brain dead is.

Thank you Mr President, for your diagnosis.
I am brain dead and proud of it!

[Robert DeLong]

Ut may, but if it does it is not manmade, and there is nothing humans can do anything about it. However, it is an opportunity for certain humans to gain power. Has nothing to do with politics, it has to do with nature created by the Lord.

I was curious about the iceage glaciers receeding and how there was nothing unnatural about it.

Something funny about early man grunting his tribe needs to stop hunting to prevent futher climate change because “we’re losing the glacial ice at an alarming rate.

The whole thing is such a fraud, but hears the rub. I know and artist who is anxious and dedicates all her work to abstract representations of global warming and destruction of nature.

Buys the whole lie hook line and sinker and has ruined her life wringing her hands of a made up bogie man.

She one and liberals everywhere buy it, look at who is still wearing the masks.

At least we don’t go around sniffing tricycle seats on toddler’ tricycles.

Only senile dementia patients believe the “Climate Crisis” hoax.

Anyone who tells you a particular weather event is proof of climate change, is absolutely a fool or liar.

There always have been hurricanes in that region, and in recent years I know there was a 13 year lull in destructive hurricanes.

“Look! A big storm! Now that just PROVES climate change. “

“Nobody can deny the impact of [the] climate crisis anymore”

BS BS BS. There is NO climate crisis” or “climate emergency” or “climate catastrophe”. There is only government fear-mongering to keep the populace in constant turmoil and clamoring for the government to “do something” (which means tens of trillions of new taxes that won’t do a thing to the climate).

Where I live right now was under a mile of ice 285 generations ago.

[Dilbert San Diego]

LOL. Given his cognitive decline, It seems bizarre for him to talk about people being brain dead.

I was earlier today thinking about this subject, and agree. We are coming out of an Ice Age, and looking back on what we think we know about such things, the planet will be warming up. It may be warming up quickly right now (or not), but one could expect that what looks like a gradual trend, in a geologic time sense, to in fact be the result of ‘minor’ spikes, flat spots, and valleys over thousands of years. All that aside, things do seem headed in a certain direction. The greatest question is what we should be doing at this juncture, if anything.

On July 15–16, 1916, the Asheville area was subject to severe flooding from the remnants of a tropical storm which caused more than $3 million in damage. Areas flooded included part of the Biltmore Estate, and the company that ran it sold some of the property to lower their maintenance costs. This area was later developed as an independent jurisdiction known as Biltmore Forest, which is now one of the wealthiest in the country.

If you look at recent history, the Vikings experienced a warming period which allowed them to farm in "Greenland".

Or more recently, George Washington had to deal with ice on the Delaware River during the American Revolution.

So are you agreeing with Biden that “climate change” is making everything worse?

[drwoof]

Yep! Ups and downs quite normal.

[Gay State Conservative]

It's possible that the world's climate is changing.It's happened before...more than a few times...before the advent of the internal combustion engine.

An example: that little piece of land currently called Central Park (in NYC) was,about 10,000 years ago,enveloped by an ice shelf just about 1 mile deep.

So my message to the Big Guy is...."climate change"? Maybe. Man made climate change? Go fornicate yourself!

[eyedigress]

Thanks for politicizing the death in the Carolinas.

What a great leader.
