(

)

... that several major U.S. politicians have spread conspiracy theories about the 2024 Atlantic hurricane season?

Source: "Greene, after spending years trying to distance herself from her infamous 2018 remarks on social media blaming wildfires on 'Jewish Space Lasers,' is now using this climate emergency to double down on weather conspiracies and lasers." Owen (2024)

ALT1: ... that relief workers responding to hurricanes Helene and Milton have received threats of violence from people who think the government is hiding aid? Source: "Falsehoods around hurricane response have spawned credible threats and incitement to violence directed at the federal government – this includes calls to send militias to face down FEMA for the perceived denial of aid, or to shoot and/or harm FEMA officials and the agency's emergency responders." Institute for Strategic Dialogue (2024)
ALT2: ... that following hurricanes Helene and Milton, some falsely believe the U.S. government created the hurricanes? Source: "The posts would be laughable if they weren't taken by many people as gospel. Among them: Infowars' Alex Jones, who claimed that Hurricanes Milton and Helene were 'weather weapons' unleashed on the East Coast by the U.S. government" Warzel (2024)
