TAMMY BRUCE (HOST): Look, leftism infects every single institution it infiltrates. Nothing is too sacred for the left to use to advance its agenda. Even as Americans face the devastation of Hurricane Ida, the Democrats didn't see the need for empathy, but they did see an opportunity for political grifting by blaming it on climate change and using it to ask for more infrastructure money. Clearly, following Rahm Emanuel's instructions, you never want a serious crisis to go to waste.
