Governor Moonbeam Loses The Plot

Here in California, we have one of the more deluded Governors in history, Jerry Brown. He has gotten his sobriquet “Governor Moonbeam” the old fashioned way … he earned it honestly through things like maniacally supporting his multibillion-dollar “Bullet Train To Nowhere“, and plenty more craziness-du-jour.

But I never thought that even Governor Moonbeam could be this far detached from reality. Here’s what he said two weeks ago on C-SPAN.

So climate now causes terrorism, and that’s just for starters. The real news is that “three billion people”, almost half of the population of the planet, will die from “fatal lethal heat events”.

I suppose that’s as opposed to those dying from non-fatal lethal heat events, but still … say what???

Riiight … welcome to Californistan, where even the Governor is clearly smoking something.

California also levies taxes on e-cigarettes equal to that imposed on tobacco cigarettes. The rationale : e-cigarettes somehow cause people to start smoking tobacco cigarettes. The facts are that vaping is the most effective means of weaning smokers off of tobacco and onto inhalation of harmless water vapors while vaping. Brown’s claims that vaping has dangers equivalent to smokoingtobacco are pure fantasy, but apparently the govt of California is incapable of viewing videos made by several prominent pulmonary physicians that highly recommend that tobacco smoker switch to vaping/e-cigarettes. I believe that Brown can be considered an accessory to the acquisition of lung cancer by tobacco smokers who did not switch to vaping because of the lies and high taxes imposed by this most disgusting individual ever to hold office.

Reality has nothing to do with a government imposing revenue streams. Governments are so addicted to our money that they will do anything to get more of it.

He must be angling for more miles of funding for the high speed rail to no where and maybe a train station on the ghost line this time.

Promotion of rail travel is part of the UN agenda on global warming issues. Found under “Transport” in UN publications.
Gov. Brown is just promoting more of the UN agenda.

“…we’ve got to radicaly turn that around or the migrations we see today are child play…”
Translation:
Let’s leverage the racial fears of white conservatives so that they’ll get on board with sustainable living.

Something about Gov Moonbeam looks like a psychopath.

Basically, he’s describing the plot to Avengers: Infinity War. Thanos is going to kill half the population. Frankly, Marvel does it better.

In the Midwest and Northeast, this is the longest winter (latest spring) in 95 years. We keep looking for a heat wave.

Brown is worried about mass migrations? I thought Cali welcomed illegals? Said it was wonderful. I am confused.

He came, he saw, he murdered the truth. Fact checkers run for cover or get chased down the streets actor Kevin McCarthy style.

And all along, most Canadians still prefer to live all cuddled up to their warm, southern border, not spreading out over the vast interior as much as they could.

Moonbeam needs to pack up his self absorbed climate disruption illusion show , retire to his ranch
and count cow farts .

Doubt Gore has become a hot air billionaire but he hasn’t missed too many meals .
Is “climate disruption” this years new marketing campaign slogan ?
No shortage of eco – porn to get on CNN .

In 2014, Governor Brown declared that the Los Angeles International Airport was in danger of having to be relocated because of a forecast of a four-foot rise in sea level over the next 200 years. Airport officials tactfully pointed out to the Governor that LAX is built at a minimum elevation of over 100 feet above sea level. A four-foot rise would leave the airport high and dry.
The historical sea level rise along most of the California coast has been only about 7-inches per century, or 14 inches over 200 years. This 7-inch per century sea level rise is the very modest and very manageable sea level threat facing the state of California.
One wonders if the excited 3 billion lethal heat victims claims, and the excited LAX claims claims originated from the same advisor to Governor Brown.

Vector disease caused by the CDC, and WHO. You have been warned by the “moon”.

Jerry “Moonbeam” Brown says ‘If I don’t get what I want and get it now, I’ll scream and shout, stamp my feet, and breathe CO2 all over you”.

Moonbeam should be forced to stick around and clean up the train wreck
he has created . Too easy to bugger off and leave the mess for someone else to clean up .
The guy admits very few care about his big boogie man yet he ignores the issues facing California
like a turtle tucked into its shell .
The real irony will be when this flake moves to Texas when the pitch forks are walking to his door .

Good quote. Is there any clue to where he got his “facts”? I’m guessing that this is the most catastrophic CAGW prediction ever. Did he remember the details wrong or did he make it all up himself? One commenter noted he did not say when this will happen. Nor does he say where these three billion people live. If we try to take him seriously, there are roughly three billion people living in places that are hot now. Latin America, North Africa, Middle East, India, Southeast Asia. The rest are in areas that aren’t lethal-hot now, so they could get hotter without getting as hot as the popular hot spots now. People seem to thrive in the hot spots. And when the earth does get some real global warming (he says it’s coming), who says that it is the hot spots that will get hotter? OR, when we can no longer afford to run air conditioning, everybody will have to move the the coast of California.

The trick is that “subject to” is meaningless. If one person is affected by an event we are all “subject to” it. More butterfly effect B.S.
