That’s what we’re supposed to call this, right? The DOJ will be all over this, hunting down these people who broke into the DOI, right? It’ll be all over the news, right?
In a scene reminiscent of Jan. 6, extreme environmentalist protesters push police to try to force their way inside the U.S. Department of the Interior in Washington, D.C. They’re demanding the end of fossil fuels. Officers use a taser to force them back. pic.twitter.com/3Mll8ajJZT

Looks like insurrection to me, by the Dems definition
Hundreds arrested during ongoing climate protests around DC
Demonstrators with climate change-focused protest groups turned out around the District Thursday, with large banners and fake oil, as part of ongoing protests against a perceived lack of action on the issue of climate change.
The Extinction Rebellion protest is one of many in a weeklong string of climate protests that have led to more than 300 arrests so far this week.
Demonstrators hoisted banners and sprayed fake oil onto the façade of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce building, which houses one of the largest lobbying groups in the United States. The banners depicted sayings, such as “Welcome to the chamber of climate chaos†and “Your business costs the Earth.†(snip)
Similar protests were held at government buildings around D.C., including the Department of the Interior.
So, they assaulted a privately owned building, as well. The DOJ will be strict on prosecuting them, right? Has anyone checked on AOC to see if she is traumatized? This is worse then 9/11, right? They’re terrorists, right? Here’s the Washington Post
Police And Climate Activists Hurt In Clashes At Interior Dept.
I was hoping I could find this article at Yahoo News, because it is behind the paywall, no luck, but, suffice to say, this is Very Bad because police were hurt during this insurrection. And, apparently, they are going to do it again today. D.C. Mayor Bowser and Nancy Pelosi are going to call in the National Guard, right?
They are demanding Biden stop approving fossil fuel projects and declare a national climate emergency at a time when scientists say the world must sharply cut greenhouse gas emissions. Those protesting this week have said they believe he has not delivered on climate-related campaign promises.
Will they be at the White House today? Might not matter since Brandon is going to be leaving this morning for several fossil fueled flights to and from Connecticut. Also, you know they aren’t all from D.C. How did so many of them travel to D.C.? Fossil fueled flights and vehicles, perhaps?
During the Jan 6 riot 126 police were injured and there were multiple fatalities
Thst riot had the expressed idea of stopping the electoral vote counting and election of Joe Biden over 650 people were arrested that was why it is called an insurrection
In your mini mini insurrection 1 policeman was hospitalized very very few climate activists are calling for the immediate end to all fossil fuel use
You are trying to create a straw man you can beat up by suggesting otherwise
Absolutely nothing you typed there is true Hairy. 126 police officers were not injured in any way. There was one fatality, Ashli Babbitt, murdered in cold blood by a Capitol cop. She was unarmed. About 500 people were arrested none of which have been charged with “insurrection”, “treason”, or any other form of overthrowing the government. It appears there may have been dozens of FBI imbedded in the crowd as instigators and saboteurs. You really gotta stop relying on Don Lemmon🤣 and That Cuomo idiot for your news and look a bit deeper.
You probably still insist junta joe won the election even after the AZ audit. Pathetic.
Do you really think a double standard of law is a good idea? I don’t. I believe in equal justice under the law. Apparently you believe those you agree with are immune and fuk everybody else.
Arrest and prosecute as appropriate.
The violent protesters yesterday were not acting at the urging of the President as were the insurrectionists on Jan 6. They were not trying to overturn an election as were the insurrectionists on Jan 6.
If they broke the law, arrest them and prosecute to remind protesters not to storm official US facilities.
“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”
Fortunately there is nothing in that brief paragraph that says “US facilities” are out of bounds and your rights do not apply there. In fact it specifically states “petition the government” which unless I’m mistaken would mean the people, buildings and institutions that represent “the government”. If the Congress is afraid of the people then the Congress is the problem, not the people. Try and remember Elwood, they work for us. I know that’s hard for a vaccine tyrant and neo fascist to understand but try.
Kye,
No one has claimed that trump and his mob of orcs were very good at their insurrection. But THEY were chanting HANG MIKE PENCE, and we have no idea what they would have done if that had caught up with Representatives or Senators.
“Petition the government” does not mean breaking down doors and windows and beating guards with the American and tRump flags. It means to present your grievances to the government without fear of reprisal.
In addition, “the right of the people peaceably to assemble” means without breaking down doors and windows and without beating guards with the American and tRump flags.
Ashli Babbitt would no doubt be alive today if the people had assembled peaceably, but they didn’t.
Ashli Babbitt would be alive today if an incompetent nervous black man with a badge and gun had been fired after leaving his service weapon in a bathroom stall.
