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.

    Why are y’all so dumb?

    There were truthful realities that some people didn’t like. Those realities were communicated by experts. Instead of people accepting those realities, there was an attack on experts. This happened in two ways:

    • credentialed experts were discredited
    • non-credentialed people claim the mantle of “expert” for themselves where they pushed whatever narrative they wanted.

    Because there are now two groups calling themselves experts, and they are giving contradictory information, further loss of trust occurs. So the masses are picking and choosing which experts to listen to with whatever criteria they determine, and I’m not seeing a lot of informed decision making or critical thinking questioning sources.

    Couple that with Clarke’s proclamation: “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic”.

    So our technology has evolved to do so many amazing things, those without understanding of the technology assume it can do so much more, and don’t question things like “Dems control the weather”.

    So a whole bunch of us are dumb now.
