On Wednesday, US President Joe Biden reaffirmed that anyone who denies the impact of climate change “must be brain lifeless” and urged people to “put politicians off” in favor of the recovery efforts following Hurricane Helene.
During a lecture in Raleigh, North Carolina, Biden highlighted the need for unification, saying,” In a time like this, we put politics away, at least we should set it all away, and we have these. There are no Democrats or Republicans, there are only Americans, and our task is to support as many people as we can, as quickly as we can, and as carefully as we can”.
The President also addressed those who claim that climate change contributed to the disaster, saying,” Nobody can at least hope they do n’t, nor can I.” If they do, they may be head useless. Biden added,” Experts report that with warming waters powering more severe storms, hurricanes like Helene are getting stronger and stronger, they’re not going to find less, they’re going to get stronger. Now in North Carolina, I saw the effect of that bloodlust”.
His comments about “brain lifeless” climate skeptics immediately drew criticism, with previous President Donald Trump‘s campaign tweeting,” Biden, the uniter-in-chief, says Americans ‘ must be brain lifeless’ if they’ deny’ the hurricane damage is because of climate change”.
Biden reversed his earlier claim that no more resources were required during the presentation by saying that Congress would need to review additional money to address the storm’s effects.
He claimed that Congress has a duty to make sure state have the tools they need because it will cost billions of dollars to deal with this wind. The president also expressed confidence in the continuation of federal assistance, with the state funding Governor Cooper’s ask to include costs for dust removal and temporary protective measures and deploying 1, 000 troops to aid recovery efforts.
Vice President Kamala Harris visited Augusta, Georgia, to review the destruction caused by the wind. She was criticized for a post that showed her wearing disconnected headphones during a crisis briefing and allegedly skipping yearly hurricane preparedness meetings, especially from Republicans.
According to Harris,” I think one of the beauty about who we are as a country is that people actually rally together and display the best of who they are in times of crisis.”
Biden’s reaction to the wind has also been criticised, with some claiming that the first national reduction reaction was slow in the hardest-hit places. When questioned about whether he should possess managed the national response from the White House, Biden responded on Monday,” It’s called a landline”!
The wind has claimed at least 189 livelihoods across six says, with 70 of them in North Carolina, and more than 100 people still unknown for. On Thursday, Biden will go to Georgia and Florida, while Harris will be traveling to North Carolina in the coming days.
