Florida Republican suggests Greene have ‘head examined’ over hurricane claims

Florida Republican Rep. Carlos A. Gimenez suggested Wednesday that Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) should have her “head examined” after she claimed humans can control the weather.

“Humans cannot create or control hurricanes,” Gimenez posted on the social platform X , as Hurricane Milton bore down on his home state. “Anyone who thinks they can, needs to have their head examined.”

Last week, as a number of Southern states began dealing with the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, Greene wrote on X that “yes they can control the weather.”

“It’s ridiculous for anyone to lie and say it can’t be done,” her post said .

Greene posted a number of other claims over the past several days about the storm being manufactured.

Greene’s post is not the first time the Georgia lawmaker has posted about the weather . In April, she defended her claim online that an eclipse and an earthquake were signs from God telling people to repent.

Hurricane Milton is barreling toward Florida’s west coast. It is expected to make landfall late Wednesday and bring a life-threatening storm surge.
