Throughout the Senate confirmations for President-elect #Donald Trump‘s cabinet picks, they’ve been interrupted by #Climate Change protesters planted in and outside the hearing rooms.
This is part of a coordinated campaign being spearheaded by the activist group 350.org, which is led by environmental extremist Bill McKibben.
They also have a timeline of activist activities planned during and after the hearings. According to its website, 350.org has a list of operations where they plan to interrupt and delay the hearings because Trump didn’t win the popular vote, but won the electoral vote.
Contrary to the rants on 350.org, every president in U.S. history has been elected by the electoral college and not by the popular vote.
It just so happens that most of the time the popular vote and electoral vote line up together.

They also think that Trump’s cabinet picks are dangerous and are attacks on civil liberties, religious beliefs, and tolerance.
Egging on their followers with unsubstantiated statements that Trump’s “cronies’ plan to attack social services, give tax cuts for the super-wealthy, and pursue dangerous foreign policies, it’s unsurprising they are being interrupted by people wearing Klu Klux Klan outfits and Dinosaur costumes.
