"It might be a good idea for President Biden to call a climate emergency," the New York Democrat told MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow.
"He can do many, many things under the emergency powers ... that he could do without legislation," the Senate leader said.
"Trump used this emergency for a stupid wall, which wasn't an emergency. But if there ever was an emergency, climate is one," Schumer added.
For the first time in nearly a decade, Democrats control the Senate, House and White House. But most legislation still has to pass the 60-vote hurdle. Schumer -- who hasn’t committed to leaving the filibuster in place permanently -- told MSNBC that his party was looking into ways to include climate change legislation and other parts of Biden’s Build Back Better plan in budget reconciliation.

If you’ve ever wondered what insanity looks like, here ya go.
Just can’t wait to spend that money.
The thousand year lockdown.
The "emergency" if you will, is likely false assumptions fed into climate computer models.

The money changers like Al Gote Jr want their cut for trading carbon credits
On all of those "climate ready jobs".
Bwahahahaha!!!
Climate change is real. I have seen it
I hypothesize it has something to do with the big bright thing we call SUN
While he’s at it, he might as well declare emergencies on the dimming of the sun and on the expansion of the universe.

And since the Feds are running a deficit, that money will be borrowed money. It will take many decades to pay that money back, if ever.
What’s Gore been up to lately? Haven’t seen his name in the news and one would think he would be jockeying for a position that would help fatten his ill-got gains from promoting his climate shtick.
Both Obama and Biden bought $20 million+ estates right next to an ocean. Biden off east coast and Obama in Hawaii.
Think they’re worried about ‘climate change’?
Just another power grab based on a ‘crisis.’
Emergency? What emergency? And even if you could do something about NATURALLY OCCURING CLIMATE CHANGE, how are you going to do it quickly, which is what a remedy to an emergency has to do?? These idiots just hurt my brain.....
Yes! Bingo! We should see if Biden will say this. Hijack his earbud or something....
Winston Churchill accurately predicted this impending demise of civilization saying, “the whole world, including the United States, including all that we have known and cared for, will sink into the abyss of a new dark age made more sinister, and perhaps more protracted, by the lights of perverted science.”
The ‘thousand year lockdown’ will soon be here.
Small wonder the Democrat Party is keeping DC under military occupation.

Yep. Looks like they are planing some very drastic moves. They can basically do whatever they want; I think they are just now realizing they have unlimited power. America under tyranny begins.
800,000 abortions a year is the part of the EVIL RATS bullet points for the Green New Deal.
I had this discussion a few months back with a someone that had no problem with generalissimo cuomo assuming emergency powers and taking away rights. I told this person that eventually climate change will be an emergency and used as an excuse to ration your gasoline and electricity
