Biden Peddles Climate Change Alarmism During Wildfire Governor’s Conference
Joe Biden is raising the alarm about the need for more taxpayer funding and regulations to fight a series of wildfires in western states. He blamed climate change for increasing the ferocity of the blazes.
“Our resources are already being stretched to keep up,” Biden told a bipartisan group of governors at a virtual meeting Friday. “We need more help.”
“Jay, you’re beginning to convince the American people there is a thing called the climate crisis,” the president cracked at the beginning of the meeting, addressing Washington Governor Jay Inslee (D).

The Washington governor gave a statement discussing the dwindling number of supplies to stop the fires. He told Biden that his biggest worry is that his agenda to reduce carbon emissions and limit climate change won’t clear Congress.
“That’s going to ultimately decide whether these forests survive in the next century,” Inslee said, before pushing for climate-related policies such as mass electric vehicles and a ‘Civilian Climate Corps.’
“There is only one way to prevent these forests from being gone in the next century, effectively to be totally unrecognizable. And that is to succeed in following your vision in the reconciliation bill for a clean energy standard, for a huge transition to the electrification of our transportation fleet, to a Civilian Climate Corps.”
Kamala Harris was also in the meeting but said very little.
Biden's brain splits in half when talking about wildfires:
