Democratic Rep. Ted Lieu blames high temperatures on 'climate deniers'
Democratic Rep. Ted Lieu of California has blamed hot weather on "climate deniers."
"Suffering from excessive heat? Blame a climate denier. Climate deniers were wrong. Scientists were right. You have the power to vote out elected officials who refuse to deal with facts, and vote in officials who understand we are in a climate crisis," Lieu wrote in tweets on Sunday and Monday.

Actor Dean Cain responded to Lieu's post by urging people to vote the congressman out of office. "Please vote OUT @RepTedLieu," Cain tweeted.
"Someone tell Ted about summer," Kurt Schlichter tweeted.
"Let me be perfectly clear. There is not a thing that a politician can do that will change the future weather. If you think otherwise... you may be in a cult," tweeted Dr. Matthew Wielicki, who describes himself as "an expert in earth science."
Lieu is just one voice within a chorus of climate alarmists.
In a tweet last week, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton blamed Republicans for the weather. "Hot enough for you? Thank a MAGA Republican. Or better yet, vote them out of office," Clinton tweeted.
United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres used the phrase "global boiling" while purveying climate alarmism last week. "Climate change is here. It is terrifying. And it is just the beginning," he declared. "The era of global warming has ended," he asserted. "The era of global boiling has arrived. The air is unbreathable. The heat is unbearable. And the level of fossil fuel profits and climate inaction is unacceptable."
President Joe Biden has previously claimed that climate change "is the existential threat to humanity."
