… who spread lies about President Biden and climate change to the local TexAss mouth breathers,
and the fossil fuel industries who have kept adding CO 2 and other greenhouse gases to our atmosphere
as they buy off politicians all the while knowing that warm air holds more water than cooler air.

I saw one Kerr, County mouth breather telling a video cameras that they don’t need any of that “Biden
Money” for a flood warning system because Joe Biden is a communist in 2021. This tragedy is just
a taste of things to come. Salt water is moving north up the Mississippi, killing thousands of acres of
coastal forests in New Jersey, and in Columbus, OH I have been able to see the smoke from the Canadian
forest fires.
