It’s a real shame when the more extreme cultists come after those who think they are climate cult leaders
Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo was escorted out of a D.C. event that was interrupted by rowdy climate change protestors on Tuesday.
Raimondo was speaking at a Wilson Center event entitled “A Conversation on the Indo-Pacific Economic Framework” on Tuesday afternoon. She was onstage with economist Sadek Wahba when protestors barged in.
“We have to be present. And so for the five years before President Biden took office, the United States was not present economically in these regions,” Raimondo said to Wahba. “We didn’t even, you know, have a framework for engagement, I would say…”
Environmental protestors promptly interrupted the event and began chanting “We need clean air, not another billionaire” and “End fossil fuels, Gina” while the dumbfounded speakers looked on.
Footage shows Raimondo laughing and saying something to Wahba during the awkward interruption. The protestors wore t-shirts that read “END FOSSIL FUELS” and linked arms with each other.
The demonstrators obstinately chanted “Clean air, not another billionaire” for around three minutes. They were confronted by security guards before Raimondo was eventually taken off the stage.
Raimondo has done things like
- Secretary Raimondo Establishes Commerce Climate Council, Directs Department to Integrate Climate Considerations into Policies, Strategic Planning, and Programs
- Biden’s Commerce Pick Vows to Combat China and Climate Change
- Raimondo to stress climate change in pressing businesses to get behind Biden’s $3.5T bill
So, it’s not like she’s not a fellow climate cult traveler. She just learned that the climate cult leaders enabled a bunch of complete wackos and it’s coming back to bite them in the butts.

That security guy needs some training in hand-to-hand techniques.
