Comrade Bernie is very proud
I make no apologies for proposing the boldest and most aggressive climate proposal with our Green New Deal. This is a climate emergency. https://t.co/aHAjeUeVCo

Then why didn’t you vote “YES” for the Green New Deal when it came to the Senate Floor?
Maybe because it’s not a plan. Or a good deal. Or even “Green.” It’s a 3rd grade science project that isn’t based in science or engineering.

As Climate Change Dispatch notes
Not a single member of the Senate voted in favor of the proposal, and 43 Democrats — including Sanders — voted “present.â€
Yet today, Sanders touts the Green New Deal on his presidential campaign website, promising that if elected, he will “generate the political will necessary for a wholesale transformation of our society,†do away with fossil fuels, guarantee the industry’s workers five years of their “current salary … as well as early retirement support for those who choose it or can no longer work,†and replace current energy sources with renewable industries that “will be publicly owned.â€
Not even the main co-author of the GND, Senator Ed Markey, voted for it. And Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the co-author in the House, had a meltdown, forgetting that Ed submitted the GND to the Senate.
If hypocrisy were gold, Democrats would all be trillionaires.

Polar shift is much more likely to be the culprit with changes in polar ice coverage, but you can’t use the carbon credit scam with that. And it’s not a theory; it’s proven fact.
Climate was changing a long time before humans were industrialized, glaciers grew & receded, volcanoes blew their stacks; seas rose & fell; all things that have happened & will continue to happen, all having more effect on the planet than humans.
Honestly, we’re more likely to eradicate ourselves.
And SAINT GRETA THE HOW DARE YOU gives him permission to BE PRESENT!!!!
There are already rumors that when Bernie is elected he will make her his Chief of staff and she and AOC can play tea party with the squad in the oval office while Bernie takes naps on the couch.
When I think of Bernie Sanders and the democrats I think of the film The shinning:
America? Darling? Light, of my life. I’m not gonna hurt ya. I’m just going to bash your brains in.
