Conspiracy theorist Alex Jones accused Vice President Kamala Harris of having the ability to control hurricanes through so-called “weather weapons.”
Jones kicked off his Tuesday broadcast by promising to explain how he knew the government could control the weather.
“I’m going to be covering today, and I’ve sent the crew over 20 clips, and I’ve got over a hundred documents right here,” he explained. “I’m gonna do a big presentation for everybody on what’s really going on with weather weapons.”
Jones claimed to have interviews and government documents that would prove his point.
“Then we have the bold headlines that I put up on X that the Kamala Harris, you know, the Biden-Harris administration is in control of this hurricane,” he said of Hurricane Milton.
“So they have the power certified easily with just five or six big aircraft,” he opined. “And that’s the old technology, not the lasers that are all certified and the Doppler radar. They also have on ships and in large oil drilling platforms that they’ve launched. They could totally just make this thing stop and dump the water in the ocean.”
Jones insisted that the technology to control hurricanes was used before the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.
“And on 9/11, the hurricane was gonna hit,” he asserted. “Remember in 2001, but that meteorologists never saw anything like it. It just turned away from the coast went away because that was gonna get in the way of some of the stuff the deep state was up to.”
Scientists have said it is currently impossible to control weather events like Hurricane Milton.
It’s mindblowing to us non-Americans that such a large percentage of a purportedly first-world country can be so utterly stupid. I can’t imagine that things were this bad even just 20 years ago. Why are y’all so dumb?
As an American southerner I don’t appreciate your cultural appropriation
Blame English for lacking a proper 2nd person plural pronoun.
Yous think, aye?
You’uns disagree?

Here’s the thing… If we can control the weather so easily, why can’t the Republicans? Have they not figured it out yet? I don’t want to vote for someone who can’t even destroy Florida on a whim with a few clouds.
Boy this dude’s gonna be pissed when all his livestream equipment gets auctioned off in that firesale to pay his legal expenses.
Most likely his dad will buy it.
His dad’s a billionaire? I did not know that!
I recommend listening to Knowlege Fight. They critique Info Wars episodes.
A billion dollar judgement against this guy and he is still spewing lies.
Billion and a half.
A billion and a half so far!

For anyone confused where these ideas originated from, I found out some articles from NOAA stuff like these:
Can human intervention diminish the force of a hurricane? From the mid-1960s through the early 1980s NOAA actively pursued Project STORMFURY, a program of experimental hurricane modification
https://www.aoml.noaa.gov/hrd/hrd_sub/modification.html
And I think in Wikipedia there were statement about using laser to warm the water a few degrees to pervent storms from forming…
Thank you. This is the stuff we should all one made aware of. Some of the craziest conspiracies are founded in some truth. This is why I find it so concerning. It doesn’t take much effort for some people to become believers in the theory that “climate change” is a hoax.
Because information travels at the speed of light and crazy headlines like this are attention grabbers, millions more people are exposed to mistruths. This is why we are where we are today. Misleading headlines. Social media. Engagement algorithms. It doesn’t matter how smart you are or what your politics are. I see misleading headlines and stories written all day every day. Then people just go to the comment section to “inform” themselves without reading the article or the source material or the entire context of a video clip, etc.
In my opinion, the real concern here is that this may be the demise of the need to address climate change. Just as these wackos convinced millions of people that vaccines were a government plot, they’re setting the stage for the climate change hoax. There will be a large swath of people who convert to believe the government is in control of the weather and the change we’ve experienced in our climate. This should be a grave concern for all.
I was a conspiracy nut for a while, (not that I believed everything, I just really wanted UFOs to be aliens lol) and a rather large conspiracy from “back in the day” was HAARP, a series of antenna in Alaska if I remember correctly. They were claiming similar things that long ago, that HAARP was responsible for weather modification and not climate change. While it was Myspace and not Facebook that was the popular thing, this didn’t really spread all that far.
Maybe now that Twitter is fully right wing trash and Facebook is just as bad this might catch on more, but I kinda doubt it. Some things really are just too stupid for a large enough percentage of people to actually believe.
Except there is a bit of truth to this. The government does seed clouds to impact rainfall. It’s not that far of a stretch for a regular person to believe getting as bunch of these planes together could plausibly nudge a hurricane into existence.
you have to round up not only the people that peddle this shit but the people that are gullible enough to believe it and get them far away from the gears of society. i don’t care how you do it, or where they end up, or how it gets done, but it’s obvious that we cannot have a functioning society with these people in it.
What the fuck do we do with the weather control machine then? :o
You’re telling me we spent $5.7 billion of traceable taxpayer money on a weather altering device just to not u-- I’m just fucking with ya 😂
i’m absolutely serious.
