the head of noaa was right, let's stay focused on the event at hand, and second of all, no relationship between global warming and specific events. >> jesse: i'm glad they didn't have a lot of solar panels in florida, because they would have been underwater, and never have been able to restore power. "tucker" is up next. i'm watters. this is my world. >> tucker: this is a fox news alert. search and rescue operations are underway at this hour throughout the state of florida. hurricane ian, as you know, struck the southwestern part of the state yesterday as a category 4 storm and caused catastrophic damage, roughly 3 million floridians no longer have power. many of them don't have communications. the entire communities were flattened. there's no official count as of right now, but it is clear this could be the deadliest storm in florida's history. let's go now to fox's steve harrigan in placida, florida, in

the southwestern part of the state. >> claudia, what are you doing now? >> i'm so owe -- i'm getting important stuff. my paperwork. my husband's personal things. i lost him two months ago. now i've lost my only home. so i'm packing it up, taking it to my car. >> you're packing it up in a garbage can? >> yeah. >> have you the goe gotten any p yet? >> no. but that's okay. i'm strong. i can get it, get the important things. >> all right, claudia, god bless you. >> thank you. >> all right. >> i'll be all right. claudia says she's strong, and that's what people are relying on, at least in the first early hours here, their own strength. some people have been asking us for water, food, and of course communication is a tough thing as well with all the cellphones down. right now really it's neighbor

helping each other here until help from more than 35 states arrives. tucker, back to you. >> tucker: we'll assess the path of the storm and the damage that it's wrought with hurricane expert brian norcross who joins us for the third night in a row. good to see you. tell us the status of the storm. >> the storm is gathering strength again. this is going to be a big rainstorm and big flood event for south carolina. then up into the piedmont and mountains of north carolina and virginia. so there's much more of this storm to come. phases three and four, so to speak, as the floodwaters are just going down in north florida. that's phase two. then we get down to the original disaster, the biggest part of this disaster, in southwest florida. this was the storm at landfall. what happens with storms is it depends on both the strength of the storm and the direction of

the wind on who gets the tremendous storm surge, which, of course, does all that damage at the coast. so when we look at this map, the white areas here, those are the winds of over 100 miles an hour. and then the yellow area out here is winds from 60 to 100 miles an hour. so what we see, that's the wind speed. then we see the wind direction. if you notice the wind direction at landfall, at 3:00 in the afternoon, that was right into the naples area. so the flooding in naples came first, because they happened to have the direction of the strong winds pushing the gulf water in toward downtown. now, looking close up here, here's fort myers, well up the river, just beginning to push water up the caloosahatchee.

farther south down here, you can see that the 100-mile-an-hour winds were pushing water into fort myers beach, all the way over the barrier island there. that's why that place is just devastated. it's going to take a long time before that's actually a workable community again. here's on sanibel, you get water from a bunch. different directions. this is where the sanibel causeway hear was knocked out. there's a lot going on here. then just to the north, gasparilla, water coming the other way. all the areas around that eye, tucker, took this ultrahard-hit from this category 4 hurricane. >> tucker: brian norcross, thank you so much. you saw fire in the picture from sanibel there. of course that's a feature always of storms like this. fires break out. some of the damage, some of the pictures you have seen, is from burning, not from flooding.

interesting. we'll have more reporting all night from the state of florida, including on this show. but first a step back. so when something this awful happens, something that affects the lives of millions of your fellow americans, decent people step back for a moment. it's a moment that demands reverence and silence to consider what we've just seen. then the practical questions. people are suffering. how are they suffering? they don't have power or communications. how many homes were destroyed? you ask questions like this, assess what this means and the human cost of it. the one thing you don't do is immediately jump forward to score a cheap and she'sy political point from it. that used to be obvious. but for the past several years it's been clear it's no longer obvious. at least to one political party. you saw this happen after the forest fires in california two years ago. it happened after tornadoes killed people in the midwest last year. it's happening again now. immediately on cable television, on the floor of the legislative bodies across this country, self-described experts are

demanding that you accept responsibility for whatever natural disaster has just occurred. it's your fault, including for hurricane ian. you did this, because you didn't support giving joe biden trillions of dollars to fight climate change. so you caused it. watch. >> decades ago it used to be one or two a season would happen. now with climate change, the extreme warm waters, it's happening all the time. >> this storm in a way is kind of bad news for the people still trying to deny climate change is a factor. >> florida republicans deny climate change as a monster storm barrels toward the coast. >> this will be a first-time test for how you adapt to these new stronger storms on a warmer planet as a result of climate change. >> the threat exacerbated, of course, by climate change. >> charleston, like miami, gets water that comes up on a good sunny day. that's climate change, because water levels are rising. >> our earth is getting warmer. there is just no doubt, i think, left that it is feeding these

beasts. >> jesse: imagine taking a science lecture from someone as stupid as stephanie rule. on that level, it's ridiculous. it's also, as we just suggested, unseemly and antihuman. of course people are dying, so wait just a moment before putting forward your demands for more political power. it's also factually untrue. you just heard one hair hat say it's happening all the time. you hear this all the time. it's a way of terrifying you into handing politicians more power over your life. the fact is it's a lie. it's not even remotely true. i mean, it's not a close call. there's been, as a factual matter, no increase in hurricane frequency in the continental united states from 1900 to 2020. that's 120 years. under the circumstances been reported. we have the data. they're on your screen right now. in that case, as michael

shellenberger has pointed out, someone who has looked at the numbers, the number of landfalling hurricanes has dropped slightly over the past century. why? we're not sure, but we can probably guess it has nothing to do with climate or your suv. we do know that same period deaths have dropped a lot from natural disasters. the death toll is forecast to drop even more as people respond to the changing environment. that's what people do. government scientists at the noaa predict hurricanes will become 25% less frequent throughout the 21st century. oh. that makes sense, because the current atlantic hurricane season is the slowest one in a quarter century. none of that is to downplay or minimize the savagesy of hurricane ian, the sadness of what it's done to your fellow americans. it's horrible. it races the question, how

exactly are you responsible for it? of course you're not in any sense. you're not libel for that. you didn't do that. you're a normal person, grieving for the people just killed, not trying to score political points on their deaths. don la lamond has a brand-new theory, claiming storms that may not have become more frequent, but, quote, more intense. watch. >> the science shows what the science shows. it's undeniable what's happening. listen, let's talk about the storm surge. really what i was trying to explain, it's just a phenomenon of the intensifying storms over the years, what it is, not trying to say that one -- you know, that one particular storm we could gauge something. but listen, you get an idea. you've been doing for a while. i've been covering this since i've been in the business for 20 years, have lived in the gulf coast. you see the intensity of the storms increasing. the science definitely shows that. >> tucker: ha-ha-ha. "so the intensity of the storms

has increased." notice how all tv presenters, the claim that is never proven. they never show you how it's true. they just assert it. how does don know that? because of a longitudinal study he did? well, in a way, he lived on the gulf coast. the storms are getting more intense, because he's been in this business a long time. is that true? it's worth assessing, since you hear it constantly, an there's a political reason they're telling you that. is it true? are the storms getting more expense? if so, how much more intense are they getting? we did our level best. this is a new show, to get to the bottom of that. according to the latest models from the noaa, the worst case scenario is that hurricanes get 5% stronger this century. we're 22 years into the century. 78 years to go. so hurricanes are 25% less common and at most 5% more intense. do the math. well, as scientists roger pellke put it, quote, you should even the most extreme circumstances

of climate change future disasters will look a lot like today. it's not about science, is it? actually there's no science behind these claims. no. it's what everything is in this intensely politicized country, another opportunity to push people who don't vote the right way, cow them into submission, seize the moral high ground, to punish your opponents. that's why even as bodies are still being identified, and apparently many have not been on the streets of florida, "the view," apparently still on the air, mocked the people of florida for daring to ask disaster relief money from the federal government. watch this. >> governor desantis says it's all hands on deck to prepare for what's coming. and that includes reaching across the aisle for help. >> isn't it socialism when the government helps you? that's what they say. [laughter] >> like social security and medicare? >> and the police. i mean, socialism.

>> tucker: oh, so clever. what an incisive point. this show is totally opposed to censorship, pulling anyone often the air. we're not calling for that in the case "the view." when that show does die, a well-deserved death, this will be a better country. that's just true. consider what you just saw. a hurricane devastates florida, kills americans, and the reaction of the morons on "the view" is to laugh at them, to mock the people who are suffering. while they're doing this, they claim it's really coming from a place of compassion. they're laughing at people who are dying, because they're better than you. see how that works. here's joy reed. >> it's a bid ironic now that you might have floridians to actually pour over the borders and go north and get out of the state of florida in the exact same cries that we've been talking about on a trolling level in that state for a long time. and be careful about attacking people who have to move to save their own lives, move to safety, because you never know when it's

your people that have to move, when it's your people who have to migrate, when it's your people that have to get on that road. >> tucker: we throw a lot of cable news clips on the air. who cares what the dummies on cable television say, but it's a window into our broader political debate. if you wind up in a country where no one can think clearly, when the most educated harvard graduates like joy reed literally can't think in a logical linear way, incapable of rational thought, then over time your whole country becomes incapable of rational thought. people fall out of the habit of thinking like adults. we're moving toward there. so these are the very same people, by the way, who cheered as illegal aliens were removed by force from martha's vineyard and sent to a military base. they called them trash, took them out within 48 hours with the army, but lecturing you about compassion as they float over a deadly hurricane. it's time to stop taking them

seriously. they don't care about people. they care about advancing the power of the political party they belong to. if you need more evidence of that, joy reed went on to explain that the hurricane, the one we just saw, is not a moment to stop and reflect on the flailing jilt of life. no. it's another reason to keep our border open. watch. >> the reality is that humans, we're literally running from what the climate -- from the climate change that we're pretending isn't happening, but we're physically being moved around the earth because of it. >> it will actually be the single biggest cause of migration. we talk about migration being caused by conflict and wars, in syria and ukraine. it's going to be migration because people can't move. generally prosperous people can move first, because they can afford to, but when the grain stops growing, the fields start flooding, the poor people move too. we have to come to terms with

that's the major cause for migration, around the world, and here in america. >> tucker: imagine when these people go home at night and look in the mirror. "ooh, another day of successfully not read tending to stupid, fueling tv viewers into we know what we're talking about." anyone with common sense at all, the powers of observation that most adults would know, that what they're saying is ridiculous. ian wasn't the first hurricane in florida. florida gets hurricanes every year. more americans have moved to florida in the past two years than any other state. climate is not forcing people out of florida. how does that work exactly? they never answer. instead they tell you the solution to climate change, to keep our southern border open. mermartha's vineyard is still of limits, because that's where their donors live. this is atonement for climate

change. these same people never tell china to open its borders. even though china is by far the largest carbon emitter and largest polluter in conventional terms in the world. but no one's ever in china's face about being an eknow state, a racist. they have no moral obligation to let m people move to beijing. the same people that say climate change is the most important change in the world, those same people tell you that china is doing a great job, and we're a cynic. here's our climate czar, john kerry. >> my question to you is what can be done about china, their

seeming reluctance to participate in affairs of climate change like other nations. >> china, interestingly enough, china has a plan. they've put a plan in place. we think they could be doing more. china is going to be building more electric vehicles, will be put on the road over the next year or so,s in china, than in any you all the rest of the world put together. they are deploying renewable power at a rate that exceeds all other nations. they are the largest manufacturer of renewables in the world. and so china is moving. >> tucker: so john kerry, who really is cadavarious, is the climate czar. he's not only sniffing their

throne, he's defending them on climate grounds? ha-ha-ha. it's not subtle. they're not even trying. they don't care about climate change. they definitely don't care about natural disasters. they just want power. that's why they suck up to the most powerful guy in the room, chairman xi. it's unbelievable. how deep is their insincerity? last year, during hurricane season, joe biden leveraged these natural disasters as a way to sell his vaccines. watch this. >> god forbid a natural disaster strikes we have to make sure we're ready to be protected against covid -19 as well. let me be clear, if you're in i state where hurricanes often strike, like florida, the gulf coast, into texas, a vital part of preparing for hurricane season is to get vaccinated now.

>> tucker: sure, the letch is ts to get the vaccine. can't we have a natural disaster that we accept as natural? that's why they're called natural disasters. they're products of nature. god is in charge. we're not god. you have to think you're not god in order to admit that. they think they are god, in charge of the weather, and they can't give it a break. they can't let people die, and their deaths be observed for what they are, which is a tragedy, that demands reverence, not posturing, none of their stupid political speech, but they can't control themselves. ever. candace owen joins us with reaction. i would love to see someone die in this country without getting a lecture posthumously. you died because of smoking, didn't get the vax, driving that suv. can't we acknowledge death is a sad thing, give it the reverence, and move on?

>> not if you're a member of the democratic party, because they're psychopaths. this is the same ideology that takes place with school shootings. wait a minute, there are schoolchildren that are dead, you need give us more power. the fact they think about consuming more power, when tragedy strikes, is an example of they're utter psychopaths. what's going on is extreme tragedy, but it's a natural tragedy. the earth has hurricanes. if there was no human beings that walked the face of the planet there would continue to be hurricanes, blizzards, and tornadoes. there's in lobby that should be laughed at harder than the climate lobby, because they keep being wrong. when i was a kid, i was tole it was global warming. hide under your desks, kids, the polar bears are going to drown because there's global warming. they stopped using that language around 2011, because accidentally the earth started

to cool and disprove their narrative. before my generation, there was a generation that said that global cooling would end the world, but they were wrong and the earth started to warm. there was the hole in the ozone layer. whoops. that wasn't actually a tragedy. they moved on. there was the acidic ocean. there's going to be acidic oceans, because the rain was acidic. whoops. that didn't happen. they moved on. they've been wrong over and over again. yet they look in the face when a natural disaster strikes and tell you, we've never once got it right, but give us your money anyways. these people are sick. >> tucker: i completely agree with that. in you know, people's kooky theories don't bother me, but if you try to take over we have a right to fight back. no? >> an absolute right to fight back. we need to start in the

education system. my mind was polluted about global warming, because they sat us out in health class and made us watch "inconvenient truth " y al gore. that was a lie. >> tucker: candace owens, thank you. >> thank you. >> tucker: to lie for their own power. so back to reality. physical reality. the earth, hurricane ian, still moving, moving northeast after leaving a swath of destruction across the state of florida. fort myers, florida, one of the hardest-hit place, a live report from there straight ahead. right now you're seeing video from storm chaser brandon ivey in port charlotte. we've got a lot of his footage to show you tonight. we'll be right back.

>> tucker: this is a fox news alert. matt lachey is a small island near cape coral in florida, took a direct hit from hurricane ian, now totally cut off from the mainland. bridges and houses have been destroyed. fox weather's will nunley fired

this report. >> we arrived at the southernmost point of cape coral, to find a coastline shredded under the force of this storm, homes that look like this, neighborhood after neighborhood washed away, washed from their foundations. i spoke to the man who owns this home. he wasn't here as the storm approached. he said -- he made the decision to get out at the last-minute. he knows he wouldn't have survived a storm like that. he says neighbors here for years have been talking about the storm, the big one that was going to cause damage like that. sure enough it's come to pass. let me show you this area right here. where you see water, this used to be a lot, a sandlot, they were about to build a new home on. a seawall is there in the distance. they just had the seawall built. it didn't do enough to keep everything together under the force of the storm the roads have been washed out. emergency rescue crews are trying to get to places like

pine island, and they have to go by helicopter, get on a boat to reach people, that, by the way, are still stranded. this search and rescue mission is still very, very active. there are people who are on these barrier islands awaiting rescue, so much still there to track for you in terms of those rescues underway. it's difficult to navigate around here. it took us a couple hours to get to this point from fort myers because all the electricity is out. therefore your streetlights don't work. traffic is mayhem. there's no gasoline. hotel rooms are still extremely scarce at this point. these are delicate first few hours of the search and rescue process. unfortunately what we're seeing is not good. stay with fox weather. we'll continue to keep you posted on what we find. tucker, back to you. >> tucker: matt nunley for us, from matlacha. last night we told you about the fbi's crac crackdown. dozens just raided the home of a pro-life leader, arrested him in

front of his wife and seven children with guns drawn for nothing, a noncrime, a misdemeanor. we didn't used to have fbi raids on the base of alleged misdemeanors in this country. now we do if you vote the wrong way. at the same time the fbi is all but ignoring violence against people who don't vote for joe biden. in sunscreen, criminals fire-bombed a pro-life pregnancy center in buffalo. the bombers have not been caught. why? because the fbi has not even bothered to investigate a fire bombing. local police and the feds took surveillance footage from the center, but they done do anything with it, but they didn't give it back to the center. the center is suing to get it back. the attorney for the local police told the crisis pregnancy center they can't have their own tapes back because the tapes might inspire right wing violence. are you following the logic here? it's completely insane. it's utterly politicized law enforcement. it's the deepest level of

corruption. it's totally unacceptable. you can't have a country run like this. reverend james harden joins us tonight. reverend harden, thank you so much for joining us. this is one those stories you sum up the facts, it's hard to believe they're real. did we sum that up correctly? is that actually what's happened? >> i know it sounds dystopian, but that's exactly what we're facing. we're facing a importantly hurricane in our country. the fbi has gone from abdicating their duty to provide equal justice under the law to pro-life people like us to downright attacking us. that was our concern when we filed suit against the amherst police department taking charge of the investigation to get our video back so we can start to prosecute whoever the perpetrators are. i was concerned that they would engage character assassination. that is the fbi. that would be their next step. over 70 attacks on pro-life organizations across the country, zero arrests. i mean, it's naive to think that

the largest law enforcement agency on the globe, with the best forensics technology known to man doesn't know not a single person who's engaging in these attacks. if it's not the fbiing to it, they certainly know who is, and they choose not to make arrests. we need equal protection under the law. the pro-abortion group is getting ace pass. look, the new cross in the front yard is burning down pregnancy centers, b they're denigrating e personhood of preborn boys and girls and anybody who stands up for them. >> tucker: you can't allow fire bombings in your country, period. congress should shut the fbi down over this. really quick, where you told you couldn't have your own surveillance tapes back because those tapes of a fire bombing of your property might inspire right wing terrorism? i mean, that doesn't seem real.

>> yes. we're in the process of suing. i mean, there's litigation. there's active litigation happening right now to get our video back. and so we can just see it. in fact, the town attorney representing the police department went so far as to say, to characterize pro-life people as sporing us, as ak-47 gun toting people, bombing and killing people. they're vilifying us. >> tucker: the facts alone in this story are stunning to the conscience. they really are. reverend james harden joining us tonight, thank you. >> thank you. >> tucker: so if you make under, like, maybe $200 grand a year, you'll notice that food costs have gone out of control. why is had inspecting? the democratic party is blaming greedy food corporations and

vladimir putin. is that going on? we'll get clarity on that question. we'll be right back.

>> welcome to "fox news live." i'm kristina coleman in los angeles. ian regaining hurricane strength as it heads for south carolina, expected to make landfall in charleston tomorrow, a region vulnerable to storm surge. this massive storm already causing widespread destruction in florida after crashing ashore yesterday as a category 4 storm. flooding forced the rescues of hundreds of people today. >> as soon as the winds died down enough to where it was safe, you had coast guard assets, urban search and rescue teams. we've had the national guard out assisting people. there have been more than 700 confirmed rescues. there's likely many more than that that will be confirmed as more data comes in. >> the hurricane is also blamed

for several deaths, but an exact number remains unknown. also millions of people are now without power and clean drinking water. i'm kristina coleman. now back to "tucker carlson tonight." >> tucker: this is a fox news alert. hurricane ian absolutely crushed naples, florida, one of the fastest-growing cities in the country, one of the nicest. naples recorded more than 8 feet of storm surge. that's a record. cars and debris are piled up in the streets. fox weather's max gorden has assessed the damage for us in naples. >> water still fills the streets here in naples, florida, after a massive storm surge inundated the city as hurricane ian came to shore. you can see this roadway still filled with water. behind me, right here, folks cleaning up the damage. lots of palm fronds, other debris from the storm. streets are blocked off here. as you can see, the winds were really whipping. you can look and see this palm

tree stripped from the winds. we've got a vehicle driving up here. really almost up to the bumper there. you can see how high the water is. you can see how this storm surge came. if you come over here, you can look at the line of debris on this house. really houses filled with water. it looks like between 2 to 3 feet of water in some cases. going to be a lot of work mucking these homes out. >> tucker: food price, if you've been to the grocery store, you know are continuing to climb. political leaders like joe biden and elizabeth warren say it has nothing to do with the war in ukraine, but greedy grocers who are getting rich. we never speak to ceos, because they never come on, but one joins us tone. bob, thank you very much for coming on tonight. so you have heard, you run this huge company, and you've heard that you're the reason that food prices are up. is that true?

>> not true, tucker. thank you for your courage in speaking the truth. aid like to say our hearts, our prayers, and our help, because we are in puerto rico and florida, go out to the victims of fiona and ian. >> tucker: yes. >> at the core of inflation, and it's out of control, especially in food, is evil. our desire to control us. when i was a child, my parents said, never take candy from a stranger. they're giving out candy, incentivizing people not to work. they're taking away our purpose, our spirit, our reason to get up every day. they're doing it without their own candy. they're taking our candy, and using it to incentivize us not to, would. that's very inflationary. >> tucker: i think you're the only person i've heard say that, that this is an intentional effort to take people's purpose

for living away, which is work, the act of creation. that's why we're alive. why does nobody say that? >> well, you know, we were an essential business, tucker. we never stopped working. work is essential. it gives us our reason. you know, god -- i love this gal from italy, the fascist speak, god, family, country. you know, you need to have a purpose. she says we all have our genetic code. each one of us is made in the likeness offed for with our own identity. we all have a purpose. now, you take that purpose away by the very few who want to own us and slave us, control us, for their own greed and power. >> tucker: okay. i don't think i've ever heard a ceo of a big company talk that way. i hope you don't mind if we bother you to come down and see

you for a longer interview. bob with goya, thank you. >> god bless you. >> tucker: so it turns out, you're not allowed to ask questions about what happened to the nord stream pipelines, because obviously putin blew up his own pipeline. that makes sense, right? right. right. more on that next.

after my car accident, right. wondnder whahatmy c cas. more on that next. so i called the barnes firm. i'm rich barnes. youour cidedentase e woh

than insurance offered? call the barnes firm now to find out. yoyou ght t beurprpris

ci had no idea how muchw i wamy case was worth. c call the barnes firm to find out what your case could be worth. we will help get you the best result possible. ♪ call one eight hundred, eight million ♪ >> tucker: this is a fox news alert. so far no big population center in the united states has been hit harder by hurricane ian than fort myers, florida, which essentially got it right in the face. power's out. the peers are destroyed. the storm surge was overwhelming. we assessed the damage at a marina in fort myers. >> tucker, it seems like this takes away your eyes and senses here. look at this construction. i'm standing on concrete slabs

once piers cut by the energy of hurricane ian and the storm surge to came in. piled up like tinker toys, snapped on their sides, some crashing into the land here. one vessel so large all of this, as if it were nothing. that's what hurricane ian did to this area, with those hurricane-force winds. downtown fort myers took the storm surge. the businesses in the historic area, the streets, look like rushing rivers as the storm came in in the evening. some of the toughest conditions were wednesday night as that dirty side of the hurricane rolled through. it made landfall about 20 miles to the north of year, tucker, and the situation was just absolutely nasty. as we tried to leave this down the area last night, and the surge coming in, what we experienced was road conditions with powerlines down, trees

down, having to zigzag our way through. there's no power still here, no running water, and on the coastline search and rescues occurring as we speak right now. those areas devastated. some of the images out of fort myers beach complete disaster. hurricane ian unfortunately will go down in the books, will likely be retired, and it is not done, charging up the coast, creating bad situations for not only the rest of the peninsula, but georgia and the carolinas, tucker. >> tucker: look at those pictures. thanks for that. so nord stream pipelines blew up recently, sabotaged, the biggest act of industrial terrorism maybe ever. we know who probably didn't do it. whatever you think of him, vladimir putin, may be evil, but not stupid. those were his pipelines. russia paid for them. critically they gave russia leverage over the rest of the world in the middle of a war. those pipelines are what they plan to use to sell gas to

europe. why would putin blow up his own most important asset? who did this? we don't know. we do know just a few months ago that joe biden promised to bring an end to those pipelines. >> if russia invades, that means tanks or troops crossing the border of ukraine, again, then there will be -- there will be no longer a nord stream two. we will bring an end to it. >> how will you do that? the project is in within germany's control. >> i promise you, we will be able to do it. >> tucker: there will no longer be a nord stream ii. when this week there was no longer a nord stream ii, someone blew it up, a polish law firm,

close friends of joe biden, tweeted this, thank you, usa. he since deleted the tweet. wonder why. the likely suspect is not vladimir putin, based on the evidence, obviously. blame putin for whatever you want, but he clearly didn't do this. i mean, right? not if you're the u.s. media. "the daily mail," just ran this headline, quote, what putin could gain from blowing up the nord stream gas pipeline. what? the article noted that conspiracy theories abound, the conspiracy theory being if you suspect that putin didn't do it you're crazy. but in reality, putin blew up his own pipeline, quote, as patter of a new terrifying attempt to intimidate the west. destroying his own country? this is insane, idiotic. again, we can't say who did it. we're pretty sure who didn't do it. telling us otherwise is too insulting actually. save it for dumb people, please.

to go back to the kamala harris well, you can't help yourself, she said something else today that's unbelievable. we've got to show it to you. and we will next.
