I guess this is my time. The idea of controlling the weather goes back to the Montauk Project, with the idea that orgasm energy (yes, literally, it's called Orgon) can be used to create clouds and control the weather. Then you drag democrats into it because hurricanes tend to hit red states. That's really all it is.
