DeSantis rips reporter on climate change: ‘Chance of me virtue signaling for people in media is zero.’
SARASOTA, Fla. – Gov. Ron DeSantis scorched a reporter at a press conference on hurricane recovery who asked when he would use the words “climate change.”
The governor responded, “The chance of me virtue signaling for people in the media is zero, so do not count on that.”
“I don’t subscribe to your religion, and it’s just a tired refrain and song and dance,” the governor said.
“I get you have an agenda – I understand that. I think you should be more honest about what that would mean for people, taxing them to smithereens, stopping oil and gas, making people pay dramatically more for energy,” DeSantis said.
DeSantis said the country would “collapse” and the “idea of climate ideology driving policy” would not work.
“In Florida, our energy is going to be affordable and reliable, that’s what you’re going to do. That’s the only way you can adequately respond to things like we just saw with the storms, to get people hooked back up,” the governor said.
In May, the governor signed legislation to slash climate agenda directives in Florida’s energy policy.
“The legislation I signed today [will] keep windmills off our beaches, gas in our tanks, and China out of our state,” the governor said at the time. “We’re restoring sanity in our approach to energy and rejecting the agenda of the radical green zealots.”
