Climate change doesn’t give a damn about our voter registration. It will torch our ranches as quickly as it floods our cities. And when it does, it will not ask whether our disaster response plan was woke or broke. Perhaps before we weaponize empathy and politicize tragedy, we should try governing, not by ideology, but by the radical notion that Americans of any state, of any race, of any party, shouldn’t have to die because of politics. Or receive disaster aid based on voter demographics.
