The Weather Channel tweeted about the difference between weather and climate on Friday in response to President Donald Trump (https://www.huffingtonpost.com/topic/donald-trump)’s Thursday tweet (https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/946531657229701120) that said “we could use a little bit of that good old Global Warming (https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/trump-climate-change-winter_us_5a458e5de4b06d1621b7e590)” to counteract the current record-cold temperatures in the Northeast region.In addition to edifying the president on there being a difference between the terms, the Weather Channel’s Twitter account posted about cold snaps occurring in warming climates and how 2017 was likely one of the three warmest years on record.

Though Trump was never mentioned by name, the tweet linked back to an article from Weather.com entitled: “Trump Tweets About the Bitter Cold and Global Warming, Confusing Weather and Climate.”

Ah, but it is. All those people from hurricanes who still haven't recovered, and the ice and snow and damage that does along with the tornadoes in spring and the fires in CA. What YOU don't get is that this DOES matter. Republicans have been trying to CUT Federal FEMA assistance to American citizens. What do you think that means with our disasters caused by extreme weather from climate change?

But as the deadly crisis continues to unfold in southeastern Texas, Congress also has a responsibility to take up disaster relief. It’s against this backdrop that the Associated Press published a striking detail (https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/congress/source-says-trump-hill-leaders-to-meet-next-wednesday/2017/08/30/fb369e50-8d8b-11e7-9c53-6a169beb0953_story.html?utm_term=.a97f75d02eb6) about a pending Republican spending bill.
President Donald Trump is promising billions to help Texas rebuild from Hurricane Harvey, but his Republican allies in the House are looking at cutting almost $1 billion from disaster accounts to help finance the president’s border wall.
The pending reduction to the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s disaster relief account is part of a spending bill that the House is scheduled to consider next week when Congress returns from its August recess. The $876 million cut, part of the 1,305-page measure’s homeland security section, pays for roughly half the cost of Trump’s down payment on a U.S.-Mexico border wall.
Reports like these may seem hard to believe, but the AP is correct. House Republicans, eager to find money for Donald Trump’s border wall, proposed using funds from FEMA’s disaster relief account. The AP’s article went on to note that “the optics” surrounding the GOP proposal are “politically bad,” which seems like a rather profound understatement.
But there’s a little more to this.
It’s worth emphasizing that the House Republicans’ plan to cut FEMA’s disaster funding was crafted long before Hurricane Harvey made landfall. In other words, this was the GOP plan before members knew about the devastation in Texas, and it’s a safe bet that when Congress gets back to work next week, House leaders will quickly change their plan.

More repubilcans plans to turn its back on American citizens.

What’s really odd is that the left uses the weather to argue about man made climate change, but then wants to deny the climate and weather are linked.

I’m wondering why the climate screamers can use the weather to help support their view that our lifestyle is altering the climate and ultimately the earth, but no one else can use the weather to dispute them?

I seem to remember that Obama when he was a candidate for the presidency that he was going to support the climate warmers but after he won, he changed his mind and did nothing about it. THE FACT IS HUMANS CAN NOT STOP GLOBAL WARMING OR COOLING NO MATTER HOW MUCH MONEY YOU THROW AT IT!

Bob you do realize that most of the country isnt as concerned with climate change as not right?

Is there climate change ? americans dont know and they are too busy trying to survive then to worry about it. See the problem for the left with climate change is most people either dont believe it or arent convinced.

How can there be global warming, when they are freezing in the Northeast ? see my point.

Then you have those that take their views overboard and turn it into a circus, like Gov Jerry Brown blaming the latest forest fire on yes thats right CLimate Change. All my life California has had big bad fires from time to time and even earthquakes. To most people that just sounds like a looneytoon using a disaster to further his political agenda.

To further add to the cloud around the subject, there was the scientists that got caught fudging and lieing about all the numbers a while back, that really put a kink in the agenda for alot of people.

Recently I read an article that was to me so ridiculous I didnt post it. It was about climate change killing off big cats, <lions> elephants, rhinos etc. The reason it was so ridiculous to me was ITS POACHING and hunting killing them off at alot faster clip than climate change possibly could.

Most people realize that a world with large poles with fans on them to replace power plants is ASSININE and can never happen. Taxpayers gave a fortune to enviro companies in subsidies and where are we at ?

The world at this stage of existence cant run on Big fans and Glass Panels everywhere aint happening.

LOL. typical. When it's colder than normal in many places we are to believe that it is warmer somewhere. Global warming appears to have stalled
