Senator Ed Markey Fear Mongers Over ‘Climate Emergency’ as California Burns From Failed Democrat Leadership

MA Senator Ed Markey

Senator Ed Markey (D-MA) is focusing his energy on fear-mongering while Californias deal with the devastating consequences of failed Democrat leadership.

Markey took to X to say that, under President Trump, Americans should prepare for more “climate disasters” claiming the catastrophe is “what a climate emergency looks like.”

Markey stated, “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.”

It is the failed policies of Democrats in the state that have led to the devastation.

But Markey would rather focus on lies about President Trump than on the truth and find ways to protect Americans going forward.

It is amazing that you have so little restraint on outright lying.

Where is any evidence Trump got $1 billion from “big oil?”

Where is the evidence said payoff was to kill the “IRA and green new deal?” We were told the IRA was to reduce inflation. We already know that was a…

Hey Ed, just a ‘heads up’, you are not the Chair of the Clean Air, Climate & Nuclear Safety subcommittee (that’s Shelley Moore Capito, R-WV), and you are not the Chair of the Primary Health & Retirement Security subcommittee (that’s Bill Cassidy, R-LA)… you’re not even the… pic.twitter.com/t95dtX9bTu

Three months ago, during an appearance on the Joe Rogan Podcast, President Trump addressed the failed Democrat policies that could and ultimately did, impact the state. He discussed the ongoing issue of water dispersal in California and how the state could stop wildfires by clearing dead trees from forests.

He also suggested that the state actually has more than enough water to deal with these and other issues, such as farming, but progressive environmental policies are standing in the way.
