    In May, DeSantis signed a bill that removes most references to climate change from state law and streamlines fossil fuel development projects—“Don’t Say Climate Change,” the bill’s critics have called it, including a meteorologist who spoke up against it on air. On the day he signed the legislation, Key West was a record-setting 115°F.

        That’s not true at all!

        You also need to put in headphones so you can’t hear that pesky whistle.

          I mean, it’ll be pretty obvious that’s what’s happening even with your eyes closed. Just like it’s pretty obvious what’s happening in Florida.

      It’s not a hurricane. It’s a combined air/water relocation event.

      Congress should force him to add the references back in before giving himself the money.

      And make sure all the people who really need the help know why.
