Manchin appears to square up against climate protester after being called a 'sick f---'
Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W. Va., appeared to square up against a climate protester after being confronted during an appearance at the Harvard Kennedy School in Cambridge, Massachusetts on Friday.
A video posted on X, formerly Twitter, by climate change group Climate Defiance, shows an activist approaching Manchin during the round-table discussion.
"Joe Manchin, you sold our futures and got rich doing it," the protester told the senator. "You sick f---. How dare you?"
Manchin immediately stood up and began to make his way toward the activist before a man stepped between the two.
"You sold our futures," the activist proceeded before being shoved to the ground.
The edited video cuts to Manchin speaking with the activists, saying, "Y'all want to sit down somewhere and talk?"
"I'm not going to sit down," one activist responds. "You've received more funding from fossil fuels than any other senator."
"You've made millions, you've made millions out of your position. You drive a Maserati," another activist tells Manchin.
"Oh my goodness," Manchin is heard saying in response.
MANCHIN HINTS AT POTENTIAL THIRD-PARTY RUN AFTER SUPER TUESDAY: ‘PEOPLE ARE LOOKING FOR OPTIONS’
The activists specifically honed in on questioning the senator over the Mountain Valley Pipeline. Manchin played a role in securing the pipeline in the Fiscal Responsibility Act, filing his own amicus brief in the Supreme Court case last year.
"Do you think people support this pipeline?" one activist asked the senator directly.....
=====================
The elitist Climate activists don't want to let people hear the other side of the argument. It is funny to see one getting bounced. Protesting is OK infringing on the rights of others isn't.
