Louie Gohmert Hits The Trifecta Of Ebola, ISIL, Climate Change In One Interview @TPM http://t.co/sZzr689JcN— Kragar (@Kragar_LGF) October 9, 2014
In a brief interview with Newsmax’s Steve Malzberg, Gohmert made the most of his limited time by suggesting the Obama administration was prioritizing climate change over responding to the Ebola outbreak or combating ISIL militants.
“This President, and this secretary of state, think that more deadly to this country than Ebola is climate change, more deadly than the Islamic State to Thomas Foley is climate change,” Gohmert said.
Gohmert presumably meant to refer to James Foley, the American journalist who was beheaded by the extremist group in a video released in August.
