The U.S. Senate has been transformed into a theater of the absurd. Sen. Mike Lee’s appalling performance on the Senate floor prior to a vote on the Green New Deal was not only an embarrassment — for him and for the people of Utah — but also reflects the Republican Party’s frivolous views on climate change.
“[It] is not this unserious resolution that we’re considering this week in the Senate but rather the serious business of human flourishing.” In other words, his solution is “to fall in love, get married and have some kids.”
Oh dear, Sen.
