Marjorie Taylor Greene claims that a group is manipulating weather patterns.
In a recent post on the social media platform X, far-right Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene has voiced her concerns regarding alleged weather manipulation, suggesting a hidden cabal orchestrates these activities. Greene, known for her controversial statements and conspiracy theories, asserted that individuals in power are both “controlling the weather” and engaging in chemical spraying practices. In her view, this manipulation has gone from being dismissed as a conspiracy theory to a topic of acknowledged debate, albeit she claims the public is being assured it poses no harm.
Greene’s rhetoric follows a pattern common among conspiracy theorists, who often refer to an ambiguous entity as “they” to imply the existence of a covert agenda orchestrated by a so-called “deep state.” She has previously made headlines for outrageous claims, including those linking environmental disasters to space lasers purportedly tied to affluent individuals. In her latest comments, Greene articulated her belief that weather modification and geoengineering practices are both “deadly and dangerous,” challenging skeptics to disprove her allegations.
Amid these assertions, Greene is advocating for legislation aimed at banning weather manipulation practices, a stance she has taken without substantial evidence to support the claims that such methods are actively being employed. Her commentary reflects a broader skepticism towards governmental entities and corporations that, she argues, benefit from these technologies, although no further details were provided to substantiate her claims.
Continuing her campaign against perceived government overreach, Greene stated emphatically, “We aren’t lab rats and weather is not a controlled environment.” Her remarks come at a time when social media platforms, such as X, frequently become hotbeds for unfounded theories during meteorological crises, as witnessed following the recent devastating flooding in Texas, which tragically resulted in over 120 fatalities.
In response to growing public concern regarding weather manipulation and its ethical implications, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has acknowledged the widespread reservations among citizens. EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin indicated that the agency would take a closer look at geoengineering activities and address these issues publicly. Furthermore, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) previously noted that the United States is still in the early stages of being able to effectively monitor solar geoengineering efforts, setting the stage for future discussions in this contentious area.
As these discussions unfold, the intersection of environmental policy and conspiracy theories will likely continue to gain traction in public discourse, inviting further scrutiny from both supporters and skeptics alike.
