Via The Hill:
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) called the Canadian wildfires “truly unprecedented,” in floor remarks on Wednesday, and warned of the ongoing damage caused by climate change.
“This morning, our nation’s capital — and much of the northeast, including almost the whole of my state, New York — woke up once again under a veil of smog,” Schumer said. “As we speak, wildfires of unnatural strength continue blazing in Canada, sending toxic air and smoke over the border and over American cities.” […]
“These Canadian wildfires are truly unprecedented, and we cannot ignore that climate change continues to make these disasters worse,” Schumer said. “Warmer temperatures and severe droughts mean forests burn faster, burn hotter, and burn bigger.”
Soooo, there have never been fires, that cause smoke, before??????
Unprecedented.. A twenty five cent word for Never Happened Before,, which proves he’s either such an obtuse idiot that he’s failed to be aware of it year after year, in various places, or he’s a lying liar,, Either one disqualifies him for a position of trust and responsibility.
