Lately, there has been a notable increase in disruptive protests led by progressive leftists. Their actions are causing inconvenience and endangering lives, particularly when they obstruct roads and bridges.
However, these leftists express anger not only toward conservatives but also Democrats, alleging that Democrats overlook their radical agendas on many issues.
This week, members of both parties played a charity baseball game in D.C. This yearly event raises money for organizations in the city. But far-left environmentalists couldn’t let D.C. residents enjoy this politics-free event. They quickly learned that Congress does not tolerate disruptions to baseball.
From Fox News:
Several arrests were made at the Congressional Baseball Game for Charity Wednesday night after people in attendance who appeared to be protesters of climate change stormed the field at Nationals Park in Washington, D.C…Climate change protesters chanted while holding signs that said “Stop playing games with our future,” and they wore shirts that said “End Fossil Fuels” before entering the field…
The U.S. Capitol Police (USCP) promptly arrived and escorted the demonstrators out, and the game resumed. The USCP confirmed eight people were arrested.
It was only a few years ago when a gunman attacked Republicans practicing for that year’s charity baseball game. This horrible event is still fresh in the minds of congressmembers—and Capitol Police. So, when a group of “climate warriors” decided to disrupt this game, it didn’t take long for police to sweep into action.
A group of radical climate protesters ran onto the field while the game was going on. They held signs that read, “Stop playing games with our future,” and wore shirts that said, “End Fossil Fuels.” When arrested, they claimed that members of Congress should be the ones behind bars.
While many Americans might agree, they want congressmen in jail for other reasons—like actual crimes they commit, not for helping lower the cost of gasoline for working Americans or providing reliable energy for the country and the world.
Joe Biden has given these climate alarmists a lot of power since entering office. Members of his own cabinet have prioritized some of their extreme policies, like shutting down drilling for oil on federal land. Biden’s policies have led to skyrocketing gas prices, which have been a significant factor in the current inflation crisis.
Key Takeaways:
- The recent Congressional Baseball Game for Charity was disrupted by climate change protesters, leading to eight arrests.
- These actions were seen as disrespectful, especially considering the past attack on Republicans during a charity baseball game.
- Some blame Joe Biden’s policies for empowering such disruptive behavior.
