President Joe Biden said climate change is “everybody’s crisis” after he toured New York and New Jersey neighborhoods severely damaged by the remnants of Hurricane Ida. The storm claimed at least 50 people in six Eastern states.

President Joe Biden hugs a person as he tours a neighborhood impacted by Hurricane Ida, Tuesday, Sept. 7, 2021, in Manville, N.J. Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J., second from left, and New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy, second from right, look on. President Joe Biden declared climate change “everybody’s crisis” on Tuesday after touring neighborhoods severely damaged by the remnants of Hurricane Ida and said it’s time for America to get serious about the danger or face ever worse loss of life and property.

“The threat is here. It is not getting any better,” Biden said in New York. “The question is can it get worse. We can stop it from getting worse.”Biden struck a similar theme before he toured Manville, New Jersey, also ravaged by severe flooding caused by Ida. “We can’t turn it back very much, but we can prevent it from getting worse,” he said. Biden added that scientists have been warning for decades that this day would come and that urgent action was needed.Biden’s plan to spend $1 trillion on infrastructure nationwide is pending in Congress., and the White House asked Congress on Tuesday for an additional $24 billion to cover the costs of Hurricane Ida and other natural disasters.

At the briefing, Biden focused on the personal calamities, saying, “The losses that we witnessed today are profound. My thoughts are with all those families affected by the storm and all those families who lost someone they love.” Lou DeFazio, a contractor and three-decade resident of Manville, sat on his porch with a small Trump flag waving beside him and Kaycee, his dog barking through an open window. DeFazio said the town needs better planning instead of presidential visits.

More than half of the deaths, 27, were recorded in New Jersey. In New York City, 13 people were killed, including 11 in Queens.

Climate change is a hoax designed to generate income streams for these corrupt politicians. There is more ice in Antarctica this year that at any point since the 1980s.
