‘This Is A Wake Up Call’: Experts Say Climate Change Played A Role In TX Storm | The ReidOut | MSNBC
But “real” Americans HATE BOOK LARNIN!
You shut yer lib-rool mouth [spits tobacco]
We’ve had dozens of wake up calls, the GQP and their voters will keep refusing to wake up.
I think you mean conform
@mark Evans no. It’s wake up.
Try it.
Dallas – Coldest recorded temperature. -8F set back in 1899.
When are Republicans ever going to understand and accept the reality of climate change?
don’t hold your breath.
But it was the wind turbines!!!
turbines work in the antarctic and cancada and wisconsin and the netherlands and, and, and…
but for infrastructure?
In Texas they say don’t mess with Texas unless you are 4 inches of snow and cold temps. The leaders in Texas are all hat and no cattle!!
No 🐴 horses neither!
This panel trio needs to return…much respect 🌄 🦅 🇺🇸
Great segment Joy: keep speaking truth to power!
first
ol’ texas oughta smarten up as to who it is who’s killin’ ’em
Watch Republicans continue to hit the snooze button.
The Messiah Trump said, “It Will Get Cooler” [sarcastic smirk]
I love how you can’t stop thinking about Trump
@mark Evans Failures are easy to remember.
So typical: Cruz leaves for sunny Cancun and ditches Texans in crisis. AFTER he tried to overturn the election. Talk about corrupt!
Because it’s cold people think Global warming doesn’t cause this. It does. They need to pay attention.
So global WARMING makes places that are usually hot…..much colder?
@The Wraith GET EDUCATED.
Just think how much worse this winter would have been if it wasn’t for global warming!
EVER BEEN TO NEW MEXICO WHEN HIGHWAYS ARE SHUT DOWN DUE TO SNOW.
My neighbor got solar kept warm family safe and pipes safe FACT
Ted Cruz was being a good dad by taking his girls to vacation in Mexico. But an illegal parent comes to America to provide a better life and they are the criminal ?
If Ted asks nicely we might even fire up the ‘space laser’ & defrost his mess! 🤣
So long as big oil/gas run TX they will never join this century.
Wildfires in the West.
Ice storms in the South.
Hurricanes in the Northeast.
Yup, everything is just fine. 🙄
When you add energy to a chaotic system (the weather) it becomes more chaotic. That’s what we’re seeing.
