“I’m not an alarmist, and I’m not in denial. These windmills, according to an earlier report on your network, are killing the whales.”
His ‘Not an alarmist but windmills are killing the whales’ shirt has people asking a lot of questions already answered by his shirt.
Ironically, since he doesn’t believe in human-made global warming, a lot of humans roasted him like the fires of the Sun.

I’m presumptively opposed to tax increases, but the presumption is rebuttable, and in this case I think the State of Wisconsin should raise taxes so that it can buy its senior United States Senator some brain cells https://t.co/UvyWL3HIzF
