President Biden is set to travel to Somerset, Mass., on Wednesday to deliver an ultimatum on climate change: If Congress does not act to combat a fast-warming planet, then the White House will tap its own powers to respond to the crisis.

With his environmental agenda in tatters on Capitol Hill, the president plans to visit the site of a former coal-fired power plant, aiming to issue an early set of policy pronouncements that make good on his threat. Biden is expected to direct federal funds toward communities facing extreme heat, while taking new executive action to boost domestic offshore wind production, according to a White House official who spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe the plans.

and his administration has struggled to assuage Americans who have seen the prices of goods skyrocket at their fastest clip in roughly 40 years. In a more promising sign for Biden, though, gas prices haveBiden is not expected to declare a national climate emergency during his speech Wednesday.

Manchin on Friday said he might be open to reconsidering his stance if the economy shows signs of improvement next month. But his opposition in the meantime has left Democrats unable to proceed with their original spending ambitions in the narrowly divided Senate — and prompted Biden to try to act on his own to reduce emissions and foster clean energy technology.

Say Bye Bye to the American Middle Class. All part of 'Build Back Better' and The Great Reset.

He can only travel if he gets his proper amount of naps

And he took a fleet of SUVs to the event

Must burn more carbon to deliver speech on the danger of burning carbon.

What powers? SCOTUS slapped down EPA powers saying executive branch over-extended. Same will happen here.

Tell me how congress can stop a fast warming planet? Shit, the planet was suppose to be covered in ice by now! That’s what they scared my generation with. And btw, country was filthy when I was growing up in the 60’s and 70’s!

About 1970 these fools told us: In 20 years Miami and Houston will be underwater. Lately we’ve seen large protests in several countries who allowed the global warming crowd to be in charge and now see that that bunch hasn’t a freaking clue. Bring it Joe. No way a court allows it.

What is the climate impact of his trip instead of just talking at the White House?

I love it when potus gives ultimatums.

Thanks you for your top notch investigative reporting- as always.

Thank You

We're in such an existential crisis that Pedophile Peter JoeBiden has to fly his massive Air Force one 747 to deliver a campaign speech .... 🤡🤡🤡

Is he going to bomb yhe Chinese and Indian coal-powered plants? If not, he should STHU.

Taking a climate destroying jet and gas guzzling limo to a climate conference while the Vice President takes another climate destroying jet and gas guzzling limo to Connecticut just about sums up how serious they are...or hypocritical.

All this traveling by Brandon is really putting us all at risk!

Who's going to tell him that the White House does not have these powers? Anyone?

Lololololol

The disaster they predicted decades ago never came, and it will never come. Man induced climate change is a lie.

So bypassing Congress and ruling like a dictator, isn’t a threat to our Democracy anymore? It’s hard to keep up.

The dictator has entered the chat

They don't have powers to do anything.

Climate change is serious and we should take prevalent action immediately !

If he was serious, why was he begging Saudi to produce more oil? Simple question

Any executive order that circumvents congress will be struck down by the Supreme Court. You guys love being dictators don’t you?

Crisis😂😂😂😂

Gonna be fun watching the courts strike it down

If the left would stop sky screaming 24x7 it would reduce carbon enough for mother earth to heal itself completely.

Since when does congress have control over the weather? The mentality of this individual and many others in his party are mind boggling

If only a conservative had their hand making this elderly puppet talk.

this is the absolute perfect time to print more $$ we don't have and waste it on the green thing, what with runaway inflation and looming recession. It's summer. It's supposed to be hot. ClimateCult

I hope this is not just political blah blah blah! And will be followed by concrete action!

He’s going to tap those powers that he doesn’t actually have. LOL

How is Biden getting there?

Whatever Biden does will be bad for us. Bank on it.

The planet is .2 degrees Celsius warmer than 1970

It's not a crisis.

He breaks everything

Yay what a great dictator Biden makes.

Meaning. If I don’t get another trillion dollars to destroy the US economy.. I’m going to use wartime powers.

He will issue new drilling permits immediately.

Luckily, the White House does not make laws, simply enforces existing laws. If they try to go beyond that limited power, they’re gonna have big trouble

🙂🙂

Let it be true.

Senile old man

Pseudo-science from a Pseudo-President.

The climate waits for no man! And, the longer we delay the farther we will fall!

Guess he’ll be taking our gas guzzling autos away.
