Hurricanes

On Wednesday's The ReidOut on MSNBC, fill-in host Jason Johnson gave environmental alarmist Michael Mann a forum to tie fossil fuels to the intensity of Hurricane Milton as the category 3 storm targeted Florida.

Thursday’s White House press briefing appropriately had a central focus of late Wednesday’s landfall of Hurricane Milton on Florida’s Gulf Coast and tornadoes across the state, but the partisan shills chose to ask a slew of questions emphasizing about this vague “misinformation” campaign they claim has had catastrophic consequences in the south as somehow on part with apocalyptic physical…

Showing his command of both the response to Hurricane Milton and Florida state history after viewing storm damage in Fort Pierce, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R) closed a Thursday afternoon press conference by sparring with a number of reporters who tried to bait him into directly blaming Hurricane Milton’s existence and damage on climate change. Having none of these political games,…

Dem Rahm Emanuel, Obama's former chief of staff and ex-mayor of Chicago, famously said that you should never let a crisis go to waste. Morning Joe took Emanuel's words to heart today. On a morning when people were desperately searching for information about the effects of Hurricane Milton, the show gifted a big chunk of its opening hour to Kamala campaign co-chair Mitch Landrieu to blast Trump…

“No one can deny the impact of climate crisis anymore. At least I hope they don’t. They must be brain dead if they do. Scientists report that with warming oceans powering more intense rains, storms like Helene are getting stronger and stronger. They’re not going to get less; they’re going to get stronger.” -- President Joe Biden, Oct. 2, 2024 Three years ago, Science News published an article…

ABC, CBS, and NBC evening news shows all led into the impending arrival of Hurricane Milton by promoting President Biden and Vice President Harris trashing Donald Trump for spreading hurricane "misinformation." Only NBC allowed the view that the Federal Emergency Management Agency might not be doing a stellar job after Hurricane Helene.

With much of the national media ghoulishly obsessing over fringe conspiracy theories about Hurricane Milton and Russia-related claims from Bob Woodward’s new book, Real Clear Politics’s Philip Wegmann actually did his job Wednesday in pressing White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre on claims in the Woodward book about Ukraine and President Biden reportedly regretful he made Merrick…

In addition to a subsequent phone interview with The Weather Channel, CNN eagerly helped Vice President Kamala Harris insert herself into the news cycle Wednesday with a softball interview when the country’s news media should be entirely focused on the potentially catastrophic Hurricane Milton set to strike Florida’s Gulf Coast. Instead, Inside Politics host Dana Bash treated her to…

Now that former President Donald Trump has made a series of statements regarding the federal response to Hurricane Helene, elements of the Regime Media have found their angle with which to cover the recovery. The real scandal is not the slowness of response or hurricane emergency funding shortfall, but Trump’s statements. The story of Hurricane Helene recovery is in the process of being…

On Monday with millions of Americans still recovering from catastrophic devastation caused by Hurricane Helene and more preparing this week for Hurricane Milton, numerous White House correspondents chose to engage in childish bashing with Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R) with false claims about him ignoring calls from Vice President Kamala Harris. In…

On Friday, President Biden made his first appearance in the White House Briefing Room with only three and a half months left in office after years of calls from reporters across the political spectrum. Sure, he only took questions for just over eight minutes, but the press corps made sure to throw this unique opportunity away with a combination of open-ended foreign policy queries and…

Part of what makes the Regime Media the Regime Media is their propensity to hide stories that cast the Regime in an unfavorable light. One such story is the announcement, made by Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas that, with a month remaining, FEMA lacks the funds to make through hurricane season.

Monday’s White House press briefing was otherwise uneventful with plenty of process questions about the fallout from Hurricane Helene and concerns about Middle East tensions (which would grow Tuesday with Iran’s missile attacks), but Doocy Time brought the heat with challenging questions on dangerous illegal immigrants and how President Biden and Vice President Harris spent their weekend as…

The Regime Media can’t resist injecting their deeply held policy beliefs into certain stories. One of those policy preferences centers around climate, which the media address by performing the condescending ritual of lecturing Republicans on climate after a major disaster.
