>one of Trump’s first acts in office was to convene national security hands and other White House aides to ask whether China was using a “hurricane gun” to precipitate adverse weather in the United States. He also wanted to know whether America should consider bombing China in retaliation for this supposed treachery. “It was almost too stupid for words,” one former Trump official recalled.

>Robert Kennedy Jr., who declared that nefarious deep-state actors have seized control of the weather via the Gates Foundation and the World Economic Forum. “They aggravate the problem, and sell us the solution,” Kennedy breathlessly announced. “The solution they want is more social controls.”

>Georgia Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene: As reeling communities in the path of Hurricane Helene started to dig out from the damage last week, Greene replied to her X account to alert her million-plus followers: “Yes they can control the weather. It’s ridiculous for anyone to lie and say it can’t be done.”
