Rep Gohmert asks: Can climate crisis be fixed by altering moon's orbit?

what was the answer?

Do not alter their orbits! Listen to meeee!

We are so fucked.

Hilarious that he only complains in his tweets that people think he says BLM referring to Black Lives Matter, not Bureau of Land Management.

He is absolutely clueless that we're laughing about his believing that we can change the orbits of the moon and Earth.

He wasn’t suggesting we attempt to change the orbit of the moon or the planet.

He was trying to blame climate change on the slight changes in Earth’s orbit rather than man made reasons.

The article mentions that per NASA, slight wobbles are normal, and Earth’s (and the moon’s) orbit, has never been a perfect circle.

Christ I wish coronavirus had killed him

R5, no, in the quote from the article he asks whether the orbit of the moon could be changed.

Okay, I'm kind of dumb but I asked some people recently, "isn't it time for an evil genius to invent a weather machine?" One woman told me that it IS possible to "seed" clouds, I guess that someone figured out how to place rain clouds in certain areas, but there was too much danger of flooding. I have not looked this up. Is this bullshit?

I can believe anything after I went to Yellowstone and waited for Old Faithful to blow. A woman loudly called the park office and asked when they were going to turn the damn thing on.

I'm just shocked he has the intelligence to know he has to draw breath in order to live.

What in the fucking fuck?

{quote] We know there’s been significant solar flare activities, and so, is there anything that the National Forest Service or BLM can do to change the course of the moon’s orbit or the Earth’s orbit around the sun? Obviously that would have profound effects on our climate.”

You are right R7, I missed that.

He’s crazy to even ask the question.

Send him to Elon and his idea of terraforming Mars.

Gomer Pyle is a real smart one, isn’t he? 🤡

Idk wtf he's thinking with that, but no one better start fucking around with trying to change whatever happens in space. FFS Leave it alone.

I remember talking to someone that was thinking shooting waste into the sun might be a good idea, if we could get it there in an affordable way -- Hell no. There's reasons why we don't dump garbage into volcanoes (explosions).

Thank goodness we're not that advanced yet with space travel because I have a feeling we would've doomed us all already but screwing around with that environment. We already have quite the collection of garbage circulating the planet from thrusting shit into the atmosphere.

He's watched too many episodes of "Space: 1999".

I figured he just watched that Chinese movie The Wandering Earth with he thrusters on the side of the Earth on Netflix.

thrusters on the surface of the planet I should have said.

where does ‘Gomer’ come up with this shit…..he must have been talking to tRump again

That gerrymandered district in east Texas keeps re-electing him. He's another product of Charles Koch money. MTG is not the only House Republican that displays wacko behavior.

I read that you can actually do this for the earth if everyone on one side of the earth jumps up and down at the same time, and everyone on the other side stays very very still.

Gohmert? Ewww! I don't want him in Mar-a-Lago.

And this goober makes over $200,000 + perks a year while consistently spewing idiotic and provocative shit. Tired of this redneck-hillbilly motherfucker.

Maybe all the newly magnetized vaxxed people can affect our orbit.

How can you be so ignorant of common sense reality. He’s even asking the forest service to do it!!! Was he like this in high school?

"I'm just shocked he has the intelligence to know he has to draw breath in order to live. "

Post-it notes on the backs of his hand that say "Breathe"

He's little more than a booger eating moron.

It’s easy! Just change the gravitational constant of the universe! Stupid humans.

Is he really as stupid as he looks?

Who voted for this guy?

These MAGA representatives are truly bottom of the barrel idiots.

Texas. There's your answer.

He was born there. Raised there. 'Edumacated' there. And lived there his adult life.

Louie is Texas. Texas is Louie.

I thought he was from Mayberry

It certainly sounds affordable.

So, in fact, there are stupid questions.

I'd he moonlighting for Michael Bay as a screenwriter? If not, he should

[quote]I'd he moonlighting for Michael Bay as a screenwriter? If not, he should

The majority of Americans have learned their basic science facts from science fiction movies - "Science" is right there in the title, so it must be fact.

Song for Louie, swing it, boys!

Maybe he should date the magnetic field vacc doc? They seem made for each other.

This shitbag proves that you can indeed live without a frontal lobe.

‘Gomer’ just says the darnedest things…..

Louie Gohmert was a judge, which means he also went to law school. Granted it was Baylor, but still. Rick Perry also appointed him to the Texas 12th Court of Appeals. Imagine having the misfortune to go in front of this dipshit for some crime you were innocent of (and/or if you are a person of color or LGBTQ).

This is why I don't kneejerk say that just because someone graduated from law school automatically makes them intelligent.

Major Rakal asks: Can Earth be fixed by ejecting Louie Gohmert into space?

Oh how I wish the Vulcans would pay us a visit ….

and get me off this rock….

No way he passed exams/bar on his own a la Trump. People were paid off. Texas REALLY loves stupid people. The dumber the better. How do you go from Ann Richards to George Bush to Rick Perry to Abbott? We are doomed.

How can representatives act stupid ,talk stupid..and still get votes…i can’t figure it out

i thought tRump would be toast after some of the ridiculous shit he said….no ..the donations keep pouring in…It’s like a fuckin alternate universe or something.

if the multiverse theory is true…how do i get to the sane universe?

[quote]He was trying to blame climate change on the slight changes in Earth’s orbit rather than man made reasons.

While to most people he seems like a dumbass - and he is - he's trying to normalize ideas that as batshit crazy, Q-Anon loving Trumptard constituents *already believe* - thereby getting them off the hook for doing the hard/painful things to alter/slow climate change (assuming they even believe it exists!), we just need to shoot the moon!

My only hope that in a Barr-less DOJ, they can find all kinds of shit on this guy to put him in the jug for the rest of his pathetic life

Stupid is rampant in the halls of Congress. Remember the loon from Georgia who worried the island of Guam would tip over?

The roads to D.C. are paved with stupid. This will

Do they have any other textbooks other than "The Good Book" in Texas? Seeing what dumbass representatives they produce, I doubt it.

*This will*????? Don't have a clue how that got there.

Go Go Gohmert, watch him go, go, go!

Caucus of Seditionists

Kevin, Louie, Madison, Ted, & Lindsey

show of hands…all say ‘aye’

Well…Lady G is just trying to get ass fucked without losing MAGA support

She is a duplicitous little bitch.

she wants her cake and eat it too.

I’m not usually into outing people, but in Lady G’s case i’d make an exception I would pull her out of the closet kicking and screaming if I could

I bet he was homeschooled.

Or a private Christian "school".

I don't think his medulla oblongata is operational.

Lá Sénatrice is not going to nullify her access to proud boys.

Wonder how many oath keepers have been gentleman callers also?

the nation's stupidest people,Texans, keep electing the stupidest congresscritter, the oughta give Iowa a chance, again

Gomer...if we could alter the moon's orbit, we would probably make it worse...rather, make everything worse.

Gohmert's behavior during certain committee hearings were disruptive and childish. Remember the annoying pencil tapping? Still, they tolerate him, though some Democrats have expressed disdain about his antics. "Take your meds."

Gohmert's behavior is as bad as that of MTG; perhaps even worse considering his longevity and seniority in Congress.

'memba when Louie's toof fell out during a press conference and he sort of rolled it around with his tongue????

Texas is only sending the best and brightest!

Dumb as a box of rocks, and ugly as home-made soap.

Florida has some really deplorable GQP politicians. Texas has the best with the numbers.

^them beat (not the best)

Not to be outdone----TEXAS demanded the Forest Department teleport Earth into another Galaxy, Far, Far, Away, where Global Warming doesn't exist.

Fighting back against ultra-MAGA Governor Henry McMaster in South Carolina per climate change.

This moron makes Tommy Tuberville look like Einstein.

I'm in.. Let's knock the moon out of its orbit by exploding a nuclear bombs on the backside where we won't see the damage. We'll call the project 'SPACE 1999'.

R40, that's what always concerns me - that he was a judge. I keep thinking of the unjust convictions laid down by this stupid man. There really should be a review of every case he presided over.

He is frighteningly stupid.

Exactly. Who did he blow to get appointed a judge???

Rick Perry was rumored to like the peen.
