You sick. How dare you? You can see one protester getting thrown to the ground after confronting Manchin. According to the Harvard Krenzen, the near brawl happened when six demonstrators from the group Climate Defiance interrupted a talk Manchin was giving at a Harvard's Kennedy School on Friday. They were criticizing Manchin's support of the Mountain Valley Pipeline. The 300-mile natural gas pipeline in West Virginia has drawn the ire of environmentalists.

I'm glad it didn't get worse than it did. Obviously, a US Senator should be able to go to a campus and talk, and whatever the disagreement is should be handled differently than that. I will say that there is a growing level of alarm on the ecological left about what's happening. Right now, the weather is just totally.
