Dems Invite Latest Climate Change Poster Child Greta Thunberg to Testify Before Congress

Legal Insurrection: When the 115th session of the US Congress finishes, I would be hard-pressed to pick the most insane stunt organized by our illustrious representatives.

I’m tempted to pick Impeachment Theater as the most senseless move.

But I pick the decision to put a teenaged foreigner before Congress as an expert on climate science, setting policy that would dramatically impact our economy and national safety.

Swedish climate change activist Greta Thunberg, 16, is testifying before Congress next week at the invitation of House Democrats.

Thunberg will appear Sept. 18 before a joint hearing of a House Foreign Affairs subcommittee and the Select Committee on the Climate Crisis.

She is among a group of young climate activists Democrats invited to testify at the hearing, entitled “Voices Leading the Next Generation on the Global Climate Crisis.”

Thunberg is best known for founding an international movement called Fridays for Future, in which students skip school on Fridays to participate in demonstrations demanding action to combat climate change.

…“We’re at the point where an entire generation has grown up in the climate crisis,” said Democratic Rep. Kathy Castor of Florida, chairwoman of the Select Climate Crisis Committee. “They know the science, they know the stakes and they know how to rise to the challenge. We need to rise with them.” more here

  1. Funny, I just commented on the FREAK below. Shes straight out of a Gregory Peck Movie. She’s not freaken Jesus. She’s the Ant Christ. My God, look at those eyes. If this were a a B rated horror movie, all the black people will die first. And that’s just racists. Or something.

    They know the science??!?

    HAHAHAHAAAHAAAHAAAHAHAHA!

    There’s been very little application of the scientific method in the area of climate science studies. An awful lot of poorly applied statistics, an awful lot of poorly designed computer models with an awful lot of parameters¹, and an awful lot of confirmation bias heaped on an awful lot of earlier confirmation bias. But not much actual science.

    1. Regarding model parameters:

    With four parameters I can fit an elephant, and with five I can make him wiggle his trunk.

  3. Lunatic Fringe, I thought the same thing. Then I found out that she has an autism spectrum disorder. Don’t know much about that, but some people are thinking that she is being used by her parents and other adults to push this climate crap. I think there might be something to that, not sure.

    Hambone, she sailed here because she didn’t want to fly due to using ‘fossil fuels’.

    Still, she sure creeps me out.

    That’s even worse if you’re black. Holy Crap. It’s like “I saw what you did with your carbon foot print last night”.
    I don’t think I’ll be able to sleep tonight. And I’m almost white.

  5. Senator: “Ms. Toungeberg, would you compare and contrast the L/D of an airliner versus a passenger ship and their fuel consumption per passenger mile for us? As a way, perhaps, of justifying your chosen means of transportation to these hearings?”

    Greta: “It’s ‘Thungberg,’ Mr. Whatever-Your-Name-Is. Thungberg!”

    Senator: “Oh, I’m very sorry, Ms. Thungberg. Please, forgive me and help us out with your answer, if you will.”

    Greta: “You’re an evil man. An evil, evil man. You will die of heat stroke in your home town because you don’t believe in what’s coming!”

    Senator: “Can you answer the question for us, though, young lady?”

    Greta: “I can, but you’re a non-believer, I can tell. You’re ALL going to die. DIE, you evil fools. DIE!”

    Senator: “Let’s stick to my question. Do you know what ‘L/D’ is, Miss?”

    Greta: “Sure, it’s ‘Life over Death’ you over-consuming, wasteful American dinasaur! Go DIE already! You’re stupid!”

    Senator: “Mr. Chairman, the witness is not cooperating. I yield my time to the great Senator from Texas…”

  6. It’s very simple:
    Q1: Where did you receive your PhD in climate science?
    Q2: If you do not possess the terminal degree in climate science, please tell the committee the highest degree you’ve attained and in what field?
    Q3: You are a child that is merely spouting dogma fed to you by zealots, is that not true? If not, please cite your academic publishing record.

    I could do this until she cried “wolf,” or just cried.

  7. She’s creepy, mentally disabled, easily manipulated and incapable of empathy. A perfect representative of Socialism. The Demoncrats in the U. S. Congress will no doubt applaud their prubescent death cult princess.

  8. Typical dimwit demoncrats; wasting time and I’m certain money of the taxpayers who will fund their exalted climate (insert-word-of-the-day) guru, to back up the nonsense. Pretty sad when they lean on a child as an expert.

  10. What makes democrats so obsessed with hoaxes?
    Low IQ, indoctrination, a virus, a bacteria, a mixed up gut microbiome from the food served at democrat functions?

    Trump Russia collusion, Trump impeachment is a good idea because there is no evidience, man caused climate change is real (and that after we were all supposed to have died due to AGW 10 years ago), Kavanaugh is a sex predator, socialism is a good idea because it fails everywhere it has been tried, green new deal is a good idea, Hillary was / is a good presidential candidate (or any one of the other fruit cakes on the stage, etc.

  12. Sorry folks, got some bad news for ya. Miss Thunberg will not be attending the congressional assembly to address climate change. Swedish news is reporting that she was devoured by a polar bear yesterday.

  13. They want really badly for Trump to tweet about her, so they can roll out the “Trump is a Bully” canard again. They’ve got Greta Tweety Bird as bait, hoping for Sylvester Trump to pounce. It won’t happen.

  14. Those are the dead eyes of unquestioning belief. Not a contradictory thought allowed or provoked.
