    An invaluable opportunity to label “global warming” as a “deep state conspiracy” was missed…

    Because they can’t accept that climate change is a thing, without seeming “woke”.

    Do new oil and gas leases qualify as weather modification? What about clear cutting forests and draining wetlands?

      “Stop controlling the weather” = “Stop imposing restrictions on weather controlling behaviors”.

    Does that mean the Republicans are going to reign in the lax laws they passed for industrial waste and pollution, and the gutting of the EPA? That’s the government’s weather modifications…
