President Joe Biden used part of his remarks in Florida on Wednesday to blame Hurricane Ian, a recent Category 4 storm, on human-caused climate change despite recent pushback from experts. "We're in a situation where the Colorado River looks more like a stream," Biden said during a speech in Fort Myers, Florida, on Wednesday afternoon. "There's a lot going on, and I think the one thing this has finally ended is a discussion about whether or not there's climate change, and we should do something about it." Biden visited Fort Myers alongside Gov.
Ron DeSantis, R-Fla., and Sens. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., and Rick Scott, R-Fla., to survey Hurricane Ian's damage and reaffirm the federal government's commitment to assist with the state's recovery efforts. Last week, the storm pummeled Florida's west coast, causing more than 100 deaths and over a million residents to lose power.
As the storm struck Florida, though, several Democrats, left-wing commentators and media outlets claimed its existence and intensity was a result of carbon emissions and global warming. Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., even appeared to suggest that voting for Democrats would help avoid future hurricanes.
However, experts, including the Biden administration's top hurricane expert, have since pushed back against such claims, saying there wasn't enough evidence to tie the storm to climate change. "We can come back and talk about climate change at a later time. I want to focus on the here and now.

As gas prices have risen for 15 consecutive days and OPEC+ announced production cuts – which could drive prices even higher – Fox News contributor and former White House Deputy Chief of Staff Karl Rove argued Republicans stand "a good chance" of gaining control in the Senate after the midterm elections, on "Cavuto Live" Saturday, as inflation remains a top concern for voters. : The Senate is a difficult picture for the Republicans because there are 21 Republicans up and only 14 Democrats, none of the Democrats are up in states that Donald Trump won.
