Paradoxically, it is the topic on which the US press pack cuts Joe Biden most slack, as they did in reporting his announcement late last month of measures to protect US citizens from the heat."Even those who deny that we're in the midst of a climate crisis can't deny the impact that extreme heat is having on Americans."
Yet this unremarkable statistic was the best Joe Biden could offer as proof that global warming had become an existential threat to the United States.The Joe Biden-led global elite is weaponising climate change to convince us that only government intervention can save the planet, writes Nick Cater.
Instead, he played the politics of fear by affirming the hype that the planet is boiling and that Americans must rely on the government for salvation. Are Americans so dumb that they need their head of state to warn of the dangers of heat stroke, headaches and nausea?
