Democratic New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez suggested the tornado warning that hit the D.C. area Thursday was part of the “climate crisis” she has previously said humanity only has 12 years left to solve.
“The climate crisis is real y’all,” Ocasio said on Instagram Thursday, “guess we’re at casual tornadoes in growing regions of the country?”
However, she was quickly fact-checked by meteorologist Ryan Maue, who pointed out that far from proof of a “climate crisis,” D.C.’s tornado warning was “just the weather.”

She's keeping her name in the news to cash in later after she's kicked out of Congress in the next election.

We are all going to die of skin cancer because of the hole in the ozone layer, if you give me all your money and surrender your liberty I can fix it.
We are all going to freeze to death in the next ice age if you give me all your money and surrender your liberty I can fix it.
We are all going to starve to death due to overpopulation if you give me all your money and surrender your liberty I can fix it.
We are all going to burst into flames due to global warming, if you give me all your money and surrender your liberty I can fix it.
We are all going to drown in rising oceans and raging rivers if you give me all your money and surrender your liberty I can fix it.
We are all going to be gunned down by Floyd R Turbo, if you give me all your money and surrender your liberty I can fix it.

But the climate will be nice in NYC on Mondays because the NYC mayor made hot dogs and processed foods consumption illegal on Mondays.
The climate will be horrible in adjacent NJ and CT.

As much fun as it is to make fun of this notable brainiac, in reality it has just become too easy. She can hardly go a week without some kind of inane utterance.

Can we blame the warming weather that we get in June on global warming and then claim in December that we have global cooling because it is getting colder? NO! Sometimes, the weather is just the weather. There has always been changes in the weather and there always will be. People like OAC seem to forget that the seasons change and the the weather can sometimes be unpredictable.

Taco Barbie might be trying to get a gig as a weather forecaster on the local news. Would be interesting to see her sent out to chase tornadoes..she might even catch one.

Have to ask how AOC ever got elected in the first place. There is a story that NYC provided housing for 60000 migrants over the last few years. Have to wonder how many of them ended up in AOC's Congressional district, and voted in the election. Did AOC even win fairly?

“...we DO know for sure that tornadoes HAVE been changing.”

It's just that they know so much that is not true."

High pressure system over the South and a dip in the Jet Stream to the West. AOC should watch the Weather Channel and learn some things before opening mouth and inserting foot!

The article winds down with "But researchers have long noted there are complications in trying to study long-term tornado trends.". That says to me, that we DO NOT KNOW what tornado trends are. The Alarmists claim that since we don't know, tornadoes must be getting worse because of GW. Therefore, lack of science is proof of a theory? That's insane.
I can understand the appeal. I don't have any proof of it but I assert that AOC has a turnip instead of a brain. A world without facts or proof makes it easier to get your way. Or my way. Or someone else's way. Or no way.
Why do we listen to morons?

She was certainly wasting all her climate knowledge making Margaritas in New York.

Shut up Chica. You are still embarrassing yourself and the country.
Years ago on SNL one of the characters wore a bag over their head. Maybe if they aren't using it anymore, they can donate it to Chica.
