Democrat Sen. Markey: L.A. Fires Are ‘Climate Disaster’ Stoked by Trump, ‘More Death’ Coming
Breitbart ^ | January 12, 2025 | Olivia Rondeau

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.

Time to piss test Markey. Blame everything on Trump and the MAGAS. Commie fags on the left are nothing but losers.

Dems learned absolutely nothing from the election.

Watch them double down on their radicalism over the next four years.

Well there was Biden’ “winter of death” for the unvaccinated.

Doesn’t seem this mean we’re going to die again?

Its a very close call between Ed Markey and Patti Murray as to who is the US Senator with the least intelligence.

As Markey invokes climate change as the cause behind the ongoing fires — he proves that he is a moron.
