The MAGA hardliner continues to dig in.
FILE - Debris surrounds the Faraway Inn Cottages and Motel in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, in Cedar Key, Fla., Sept. 27, 2024. As the death toll from Hurricane Helene continues to climb amid the destruction it left in its path and the angst of another powerful storm on its path to hit Florida, MAGA conservative“Ask your government if the weather is manipulated or controlled,” Greene, who is an elected member of Congress, told her 3.7 million followers on X.
Helene is the deadliest hurricane to hit the mainland U.S. since Katrina in 2005. Roughly half the victims were in North Carolina, while dozens more were killed in South Carolina and Georgia — which Greene represents. Hurricane Milton, meanwhile, could come ashore Wednesday across Florida’s storm-battered Gulf Coast as a Category 5 storm. It’s currently on track to hit the Tampa Bay region, which has not endured a direct hit by a major hurricane in more than a century. Scientists expect the system to weaken slightly before landfall, though it could retain hurricane strength as it churns across central Florida toward the Atlantic Ocean.
In 2018, a poorly maintained electrical grid sparked a California wildfire that killed 84 people. In a Facebook post in November of that year, Greene falsely speculated that darker forces were at work.
