Democrat Massachusetts Sen. Ed Markey has claimed that the Los Angeles fires are the result of a climate change “disaster” stoked by President-elect Donald Trump’s embrace of “Big Oil” — and there is “more death” coming as a result.
“Trump has been bought for $1 billion by Big Oil. Just a payoff to kill the IRA and the Green New Deal. We know what will happen. More fires, more climate disasters, more death. The LA fires are preview of coming atrocities,” Markey wrote on X on Saturday:
In another post from Friday, the left-wing senator said Trump is adding “fuel to the fire” by expressing support for more natural gas drilling:
As multiple fires burn through thousands of acres in Los Angeles, Markey has been harping on Republicans for not supporting the Green New Deal:
“Republicans say that we can’t afford a Green New Deal,” he wrote in yet another social media post. “What we really can’t afford is to sacrifice our lives, homes, and communities in fires fueled by the climate crisis. We need a system change, not climate change.”
Markey, who served 20 years in the U.S. House before being elected as his state’s junior senator in 2013, cosponsored the Green New Deal with New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D) in 2019 in order to transition the country to using zero-emission energy resources, though it failed to advance in the Senate.
As Markey invokes climate change as the cause behind the ongoing fires — which have already claimed the lives of at least 16 people and destroyed thousands of homes since the first blaze sparked in the Pacific Palisades on Tuesday — Los Angeles Fire Department (LAFD) Chief Kristin Crowley has admitted that city officials “failed” in getting her agency the resources they need:

This is the same kind of woke nonsense to caused the disaster in the first place.
Talk about stuck on stupid.
Time to piss test Markey. Blame everything on Trump and the MAGAS. Commie fags on the left are nothing but losers.
I am gobsmacked by the lunacy coming out of mouths of Leftists. Do they listen to themselves?
Well, your cult created covid to get him out...fully expecting another evil (from your cult) now that he's back in.
“Talk about stuck on stupid.”
***********
Dems learned absolutely nothing from the election.
Watch them double down on their radicalism over the next four years.
Ol’ Ed can’t even spell his own name correctly.
He is Senator MaLArkey.
Sounds like a terrorist threat.
Well there was Biden’ “winter of death” for the unvaccinated.
Doesn’t seem this mean we’re going to die again?
Wag—the—Dog…..
I hope there are some people, even Dems who are too smart to believe this horse pucky.
Californians believe it though ..sad!
Its a very close call between Ed Markey and Patti Murray as to who is the US Senator with the least intelligence.
OH MY …so true! Haven’t heard that one in a long time.
For the left, the “Green new deal” is nothing more than a total SCAM To make themselves rich..they enjoy the death and destruction, ya think the left is upset about what they have seen, they are CHEERING IT ON, they are celebrating all of it, so they can get their end game
“Give us more money or your city gets burned down.”
Sheesh! He hasn’t even been inaugurated, yet, and already everything is Trump’s fault!
The libturd insanity continues, unabated.
Is Sen. Markey on drugs?
Horse Hockey.
As Markey invokes climate change as the cause behind the ongoing fires — he proves that he is a moron.
