Veterans on Patrol believes government caused Helene with weather manipulation tech, Telegram chats reveal

Summary

Veterans on Patrol, a far-right militia, believes Hurricane Helene was caused by a government weather weapon and plans to destroy it.

The group’s founder, Michael Meyer, has threatened the US military and accused them of spraying poisons on the American people.

VOP’s activities, rooted in anti-government and anti-immigrant beliefs, have drawn criticism from law enforcement and advocacy groups.

Coal rolling dumb fucks who think man-made climate change is a hoax look for man-made climate change machine :)
Attack the machines that exacerbated the hurricane? Sure, just head to your nearest car dealership or container port or oil processing facility. Be careful not to burn anything, as that will make the weather worse.
- Don't forget the coal mines
  
  And the slaughterhouses
Uh-oh, which side will Republicans choose?
- You’re mistakenly employing critical thought where it otherwise would not exist.
  
  It’s Biden’s fault until Trump fixes it, which will be whenever he claims it’s fixed.
  
  It's like a giant switch, you just turn it and all the fresh water goes to LA instead of in the ocean, we could turn it in a day!
Why don't they just wait until Trump is sworn in and then he can use it to save America, right? Right?
- You don't get it, Trump is part of the radical left!
- They don't trust Trump because he supported the Covid vaccines.
But Republicans told me this Weather is NORMAL? Just like how Jan 6 which caused MILLIONS in Damage was a Nonviolent Violent Tourist Visit by ANTIFA where no one should have been arrested but ONLY MAGAS were for some reason.
Extremely hot oceans and great lakes are causing mass rainfall events near them. If the US or Jews were using energy weapons, it wouldn't be against the US. Venezuela, Cuba, Palestine, Russia could be destroyed by daily local record rainfalls.

The global warming is not real therefore all climate disasters are US attacks, loses to oceans are boiling right now from global warming, and the US military would not need to attack US and allies in order to "fake" global warming.

Maybe Trump can promise them "no more hurricanes".
- Well duh, Trump said you can nuke the hurricanes when he was in office last time... Glad we want to hand those codes back to him.
  
  People talk about nuking hurricanes so much NOAA has it as part of an FAQ on their site. The gist? It doesn’t work and would just make a hurricane more radioactive
Is it baseless tho when an elected representative says it’s real?
- I think you need to start with establishing that said representative is actually real.
  
  She's real. She's batshit crazy, but she's real

"The group’s founder, Michael Meyer..."

I think I found your problem - might wanna check him for a hockey mask.
- Sorry to be that guy, but the hockey mask was Jason Vorhees. Michael Meyers wore the Captain Kirk mask.
  
  Huh. Shows how much of a horror movie fan I am. Thanks for the correction.
  
  Wait. Captain Kirk mask? What a weird way to have a TIL moment. Thanks again!
- Or a severely unsettling candy-cane stovepipe hat.
Next these morons are going to be storming our local pizza places.
