GOP Sen. Ron Johnson Claims Clouds Will Stop Climate Change


During a segment on Fox News, while discussing climate change, Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) made the claim that the world is not really facing a climate crisis and that it is all just so much hysteria based on “bad science.”  He further claimed that alarmists were "ignoring the impact of clouds to basically act as a heatsink."  Then, without missing a beat, he astonishingly proceeded to claim “windmills are killing the whales.”

Wow, the nation’s dumbest senator said what?  Clouds will stop climate change?  Makes sense, just like umbrellas will stop it from raining.  So, if it’ll be clouds that’ll stop climate change, I guess that would explain why Johnson spends so much time in his backyard in his underwear yelling up at the clouds.  Frankly, the only way I can imagine Johnson’s cloud scenario possibly working would be if Johnson were to release that massively dense, dark cloud that inhabits most of the interior of his skull.

Of course, Johnson’s Republican pals will naturally argue that Johnson is “spot on” in his attacks on climate scientists.  And I do have to admit Johnson has definitely made some quite “interesting” points on the subject over the years.  You know, like global warming is the result of sunspots, and climate change “has always” been a thing - and to prove it, Johnson pointed out that Greenland was once actually “a green land” - hence its name.

That said, I believe perhaps Ron Johnson’s most profound contribution to climate science is his groundbreaking theory that “windmills are killing the whales.”  Now, I hate to sound like one of those folks who “blames the victim,” but if Johnson is correct on this, I honestly can’t help but feel that “this what these whales get for leaving the ocean (where they belong) and flying through the air like that.”  Why their place is in the water, not clogging up our airways.

Of course, I’m sure that just because Johnson and his Republican pals are all rolling in fossil fuel industry cash, it has nothing to do with any positions they’ve taken on this issue.  Now, my question is, “It sure seems like clouds have been around for an awful long time.  Just how effective have these clouds been so far?”  So, sorry, Senator Johnson, but I think Joni Mitchell probably put it best in her song “Both Sides Now” when she said, “You really don't know clouds - at all.”

Marjorie Taylor Greene Claims Pete Buttigieg Emasculating Driving With Electric Cars

During a segment on Neil Cavuto’s Fox News program, US Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg was told by the host that Marjorie Taylor Greene is claiming "Mr. Buttigieg is trying to emasculate the way we drive" by supporting electric vehicles.  In response, Buttigieg told Cavuto that “my sense of manhood is not connected to whether my vehicle is fueled by gasoline, or whether it's fueled by electricity.”  When asked by Cavuto if he was offended by what Greene said, Buttigieg remarked "To be honest, there are other members of Congress that I pay more attention to when I'm thinking about opinions that really matter.” Oh, come on now!  Let’s get real.  It would take a helluva lot more than an electric car to “emasculate” Marjorie Taylor Greene.  Besides, I’m pretty sure “real men” actually ride horses, anyway.  Of course, I’m certainly no psychiatrist, but it sounds like Greene’s anger could be a combination of both “road rage” and “roid rage,” leaving her...

Mike Huckabee Claims COVID-19 Death Risk Small and Sin Risk Lethal

Mike Huckabee Claims COVID-19 Death Risk Small and Sin Risk Lethal:   Former Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee has stirred some controversy with medical professionals by claiming that the risk of death from coronavirus is very “minimal,” but “sin is 100% lethal. Oh, really Mike?  Then how about showing me a death certificate which lists “sin” as the primary cause of death.  Of course, the fact is, sin couldn’t be 100% lethal, or a guy like me wouldn’t even be alive to write this.   On the other hand, maybe you’re on to something Mike - and sin really is lethal, and I secretly used a “ghostwriter” to write this joke. https://www.johnnyrobishcomedy.com

Trump Takes to Truth Social to Spread ‘Roomer’ About Ron DeSantis

Former president Donald Trump just shared some juicy gossip about Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on his Truth Social platform.   Trump posted, “Roomer (sic) are (sic) strong in political circles that Ron DeSanctimonious, whose Presidential run is a shambles, and whose poll numbers have absolutely crashed, putting him 3rd and 4th in some states, will be dropping out of the Presidential race in order to run, in Florida, against Rick Scott for Senate.   Now that’s an interesting one, isn’t it?” Gee, Donald Trump spreading “roomers?”  Say it ain’t so!   Now, me thinks perhaps that prestigious Wharton School of Business Trump attended might want to consider adding some basic 3rd-grade spelling classes to its curriculum.   Apparently, Trump is stalled at that level of language development where he is still spelling words phonetically.   Why his poor spelling makes him look like a real “looser.”   Frankly, I’m not sure its a wise choice for Republicans to choose ...
