JESSE WATTERS (HOST): Florida's in a state of emergency tonight as it frantically hunkers down before Hurricane Ian makes landfall. And the storm's a big deal. So, did Joe Biden call Ron DeSantis to get on the same page?
...
Maybe the reason Joe isn't talking with the leader of the state that's about to be devastated by this natural disaster is because he's already got the whole thing covered with the Inflation Reduction Act. Senator Amy Klobuchar laid it out for us clearly. There's no need to worry, people, because the Inflation Reduction Act and voting for Democrats is going to stop hurricanes. Listen.
[CLIP BEGINS]
SEN. AMY KLOBUCHAR: We just did something about climate change for the first time in decades. That's why we've got to win this as that hurricane bears down on Florida. We got to win in the midterms. We understand that.
[CLIP ENDS]
Is it just me or is Amy saying if you vote Democrat, she'll drive to Florida and nuke the hurricane herself? Just asking.
