MTG Sponsors Bill to Stop ‘Weather Control’: ‘God Didn’t Punish Texas’

One has to laugh because the alternative involves letter openers and the base of one’s own skull. Not that artificial weather control is science fiction – at least not the research of it, indeed it has a ton of promise. No, the laughter is from one Marjorie Taylor Greene, who believes that the U.S. does have the power to control the weather or at least make it more severe, because she now wants all attempts to control the weather stopped. It is because she is a conspiracy theory freak and that is kind of funny. Joe My God brings us the transcript:

“I am introducing a bill that prohibits the injection, release, or dispersion of chemicals or substances into the atmosphere for the express purpose of altering weather, temperature, climate, or sunlight intensity. It will be a felony offense.

“I have been researching weather modification and working with the legislative counsel for months writing this bill. It will be similar to Florida’s Senate Bill 56.

HOLD UP. A couple of things. One, we don’t have control of the weather, yet. There has been some research into cloud seeding to bring on rain but nothing that would cause 10-inch downpours of the type that just drowned Texas. Second, if we could somehow create rainfall out of nothing, it would already be used to turn the American desert West into a Garden of Eden with agriculture and natural resources everywhere, not sending it through red-state Texas in unprecedented levels. Oh! And where is she doing her research? Somehow, it is doubtful that she’s getting her stuff from the prestigious Nature research publication.

“We must end the dangerous and deadly practice of weather modification and geoengineering.  This is not normal. I want clean air, clean skies, clean rain water, clean ground water, and sunshine just like God created it!! No person, company, entity, or government should ever be allowed to modify our weather by any means possible!!

Hold up. God didn’t invent irrigation by man, either. But MTG would starve if it weren’t for the food provided by such irrigation. Additionally, God won’t ruin the planet, but man sure will if we keep “geoengineering” climate change (Hint, MTG – it’s in the name itself). We have already altered the weather, and it’s all-too-possible that climate change is making such storms more powerful. If only MTG would get on a movement to limit fossil fuels, even we could support her on that.

“Honored to add Tim Burchett as a cosponsor and look forward to working with more members of Congress, hopefully on both sides of the aisle.” – Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, apparently believing that today’s floods in Texas are caused by weather control.

Well, Marjorie, as said above, you will definitely get Democratic support for addressing real geoengineering. Until then, cloud seeding has a chance of allowing Southern Nevada, Arizona, and California to become an oasis. We are surely a long way away, but science is about dreams, not nightmares.

Before MTG cools her jets, she ought to also note who is in charge of the federal government and Texas right now. If something is making her angry, then she should be at war with the Trump and Abbot administrations. But political science says that won’t happen. It would be more compelling to do a rain dance.

Just don’t do it in northern Texas right now.

Zoomers, we are always in need of donations. It’s been an especially rough month, and my own health has not been great these past few weeks, which just adds to the frustration. Anything you can spare will be immensely appreciated. And thank you to all who have donated generously already. Ursula
