A powerful winter storm has left millions of people without power in Texas amid freezing temperatures. Some Facebook users blamed President Joe Biden not for a particular policy, but for the storm itself. In a Feb. 15 post, Scott L. Biddle wrote that the storm resulted from weather manipulation and controlling the jet stream something he assured people is not a conspiracy theory.
Joe Bidens Dark Winter statement was not a random thought, it was a foreshadow of what was to come, Biddle wrote. Texas is the only state to have its own, entirely independent electric grid separate from the rest of the United States. This is warfare, an attack on Texas by altering the jet stream, seeding the clouds, and ultimately causing the storm that blacked out over 4 million people.
Sound crazy? Too hard to believe? Believe it. Dont believe it.
The post was flagged as part of Facebooks efforts to combat false news and misinformation on its News Feed. (Read more about our partnership with Facebook.) We reached out to Biddle who wrote a book of COVID-19 conspiracy theories that was removed from Amazon but we havent heard back. What he said isnt true. First, lets examine the dark winter statement. In November, Biden said the coronavirus pandemic could worsen over the winter months as Americans traveled for the holidays and were forced indoors by colder weather. Were still facing a very dark winter, he said. There are now nearly 10 million COVID cases in the United States.
