The Hollywood star slammed Republican senators from Texas as “hateful,” “vicious,” and “cruel.” She then stated that God was punishing them for daring to voice their concerns about potential fraud in the 2020 presidential election.
“I feel for the people suffering thru this weather, but #God doesn’t seem to like #TedCruzor #JohnCornyn. These two also never recognized that #Joe won,” Midler tweeted to over 2 million followers. “If this isn’t payback, I don’t know what is,” she gleefully added.
"Inept" is the wrong word. "Hateful", "Vicious", "Cruel" might all apply. I feel for the people suffering thru this weather, but #God doesn't seem to like #TedCruz or #JohnCornyn. These two also never recognized that #Joe won. If this isn't payback, I don't know what is. https://t.co/58nrn22cxF

Breitbart.com reports: Midler also blamed the winter storm on climate change, saying that Al Gore warned of such possibilities three decades ago.
"But as climate change accelerates, many electric grids will face extreme weather events that go far beyond the historical conditions those systems were designed for, putting them at risk of catastrophic failure." Like #AlGore didn't tell you this 30 years ago.

The winter storm is believed to have knocked out power to 4 million Texans as unprecedented snowfall and winds dealt a blow to green energy sources, including windmills that were rendered useless due to ice.
As Breitbart News reported, White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Tuesday that while President Joe Biden was “monitoring” states severely impacted by winter storms, he had not yet personally reached out to their governors.
In 2019, Bette Midler tweeted that Hurricane Dorian was nature’s “revenge,” implying that Mother Nature was exacting retribution against mankind.
