CNN, Biden Official Spark Outrage After Saying “Climate Change” Could Have Caused Condo Collapse

By: Kipp Jones, Western Journal,  June 29, 2021:

You knew the insane Democrats would find a way to cash in on the tragedy in South Florida which left at least 11 dead and 150 unaccounted for. After all, a building such as the Champlain Towers partially falling to the ground might be a way to push President Joe Biden’s non-infrastructure infrastructure bill across the finish line.

But only days after the building collapse, a top Biden administration official sat down withCNN’s Erica Hall, who attempted to assign a potential culprit: climate change.

“[G]iven what we know about the changing climate, given that we’ve seen an increase in so-called extraordinary tides, and the impact that that can have in areas like South Florida, do you think that climate would have played a role in that building’s collapse?” Hill asked Granholm.

Granholm, who likes to brag that she drives an electric car, actually indulged the bonkers theory.

“Well, obviously we don’t know fully,” she said, “but we do know that that the seas are rising. I mean, we know that we’re losing inches and inches of beaches — not just in Florida, but all around.”

“Lake Michigan, where I’m from, you know, we’ve seen the loss of beaches because the waters are rising,” she said. “This is a phenomenon that will continue — whether- we’ll have to wait and see what the analysis is for this building, but this issue about resiliency and making sure we adapt to this changing climate, that’s gonna mean levees need to be built, that means sea walls need to be built, that means infrastructure needs to be built.”

“We need to make sure that we invest enough in clearing out the forests so we don’t have these weather events,” she added. “Hopefully, these infrastructure bills, when taken together, will make a huge step and allow America to lead again.

CNN further insulted the dead by plastering a chyron across the screed that read: “Could Climate Crisis Have Contributed to Building Collapse?”
