Will any of them note the massive use of fossil fuels for the attendees of the dinner to show up? How about Biden’s massive use of fossil fuels?
Climate change activists plan protest at White House Correspondents’ Dinner
Climate change activists have announced plans to protest at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner on Saturday where President Joe Biden is set to speak.
Climate Defiance organizers told ABC News that they plan to blockade the area near the dinner on Saturday night is an effort to hold Biden, who announced his reelection bid on Tuesday, accountable for what they say was his 2020 campaign promise to end fossil fuel extraction on public lands.
“Number one, no more subsidies for fossil fuel industry. No more drilling on federal lands. No more drilling, including offshore. No ability for the oil industry to continue to drill, period, ends,” Biden said at a March 2020 Democratic presidential debate.
The group is asking protesters to congregate at a Metro station near the Washington Hilton, the hotel where Biden is set to deliver remarks at the annual dinner featuring an audience of Washington’s news media.
It’s 1.4 miles from the White House to the Washington Hilton. How big will Biden’s fossil fueled convoy be? How many of these climawackos will take fossil fueled trips to D.C./Washington Hilton? Will they take fossil fueled travel to somewhere near DC and take the metro, which has a station .4 miles south of the Hilton? How much energy will they use to upload their videos?
“Washington Hilton respects all parties’ rights to express their points of view in lawful and non-disruptive manners; however, we are simultaneously committed to protecting our Team Members’ and guests’ safety and security,” a Hilton spokesperson said. “We will take all necessary steps, in cooperation with local law enforcement officials, to ensure such activities do not interfere with those entering and leaving the hotel.”
In other words, it’s not OK to mess with Democrats.
Here’s another group of climate Comrades earlier in the week
