Weather forecasters across the Southwest are having a hard time this summer coming up with descriptive taglines for each day’s ever-rising heat. If 105° is “hot”—what to call 110°… and up? Some have quit trying, simply labeling each day: “Again.”
Luckily Joe Biden has issued bold new steps to counter the relentless c*****e c****e that’s causing this extreme, k**ler heat. For example, workers will get “hazard alerts” telling them it’s hot. Also, a new website will urge everyone to stay hydrated. His aides say this shows that Joe is treating c*****e c****e with “the urgency it deserves.”
Excuse me while I have a political heat stroke. Urgency? The same day Biden launched his pathetic g****l w*****g “policy,” the Republican Supreme Court rubber stamped his disastrous push for the massively-polluting Mountain Valley Pipeline. This 300-mile environmental scar across two states will be like adding 26 more coal-fired power plants to our c*****e c****e crisis. Then there’s his unconscionable approval this year of Willow, an oil-drilling project in the Arctic that will release hundreds of millions of tons of additional greenhouse gas emissions. Plus approving and subsidizing dozens of other f****l f**l boondoggles.
Worse, Biden has meekly refused to take the genuinely bold step of declaring a climate emergency, even as he’s pushed new laws to remove the people’s right to challenge corporate profiteering at the expense of climate sanity.
Yes, the Republicans are worse, but pointing that out is neither a policy nor good politics. C*****e c****e is not a future problem, it is NOW… and people are literally feeling it. If Biden wonders why his approval rating is a woeful 39 percent (and even among Democrats, only 20 percent express enthusiasm for him)—there it is. People want and need p**********l boldness, not a hot weather website.

What bunch of BS! I don't need Biden to tell me when it's hot and I need to stay hydrated. But surprisingly I agree with your last sentence...
