While speaking at a coffee shop in Keokuk, IA, 2020 presidential hopeful Beto O’Rourke voiced his support for the Green New Deal, echoing socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) in saying the world will end in 12 years if nothing is done.
O’Rourke told the group gathered at the coffee shop that he has not “seen anything better that addresses this singular crisis” that he said “could lead to extinction” than the Green New Deal.
“This is the final chance,” the failed Senate candidate from Texas advised. “The scientists are absolutely unanimous on this — that we have no more than 12 years to take incredibly bold action on this crisis. My gratitude to them for the young people who stepped up to offer such a bold proposal to meet such a grave challenge.”
He concluded, ‘”Not to be melodramatic, but the future of the world depends on us right now here where we are. So, yes, let’s find a way to do this.”

“The scientists are absolutely unanimous on this – that we have no more than 12 years to take incredibly bold action on this crisis.”
No, scientists are not “absolutely unanimous” that recent climate change is, or would lead to, a crisis. There are numerous highly qualified scientists who contend that the climate is less sensitive to CO2 than alleged by the IPCC.
Remember the Oregon Petition signed by over 30,000 scientists disputing the anthropological climate change narrative. How can there be “absolutely unanimous” with that many people dissenting. The signatures include 9,029 PhD’s and 7,157 with master’s degrees. Also included are 3,805 scientists trained atmospheric, environmental, and Earth sciences.
Laugh my ass off! Seen this before. “Just not ready”
The UN is panicking because they see their agenda is in jeopardy. The earth is cooling as wet set into a cooler sun phase. The gist is almost up. Get as much mileage from this global warming deception while the sheeple still believe. Their predictions have been so bad up to now to this is just a bigger joke than all the past predictions.
The parallel to your comment is ‘Shifty Schiff’ and the rest of the Dims freaking out over the Mueller Report. Crow for din-din.
Just another attention seeking Melon (Green outer but really red inside).
Needs to read Prof.Ian Pimers’s ‘Not For Greens’
Honestly, what kind of people still believe? Sheeple, yes. What kind of political candidate hooks his wagon to the climate change glue horse? The Green New Deal is desperation for politicians who can’t add. They’re catering to an idiotic minority in a democracy.
Guaranteed to lose. People will vote AGAINST it.
And the bets are in and the conclsion of Beto Orourke has Lost his Marbles
Charlatans have been preaching this ‘end of the world’ nonsense since time immemorial. Never ending alarmism despite reality.
The Dem’s are crazed. Most everyone thought Trump was a long shot. When the dust had settled, America elected a successful business man to the White House. The economy is rewarding all Americans, not just the ones who voted Republican.
The Left will be hard pressed to find enough suckers willing to give up what they have, for what’s behind the Green New Deal door.
Another Tom Steyer command performance ?
Holly crap this guy could strap on a generator and produce more power by flapping his arms around than a California bird blender .
“The future of the world depends on us ” …nah not really 4.5 billion vs 200 million and only 200 years of heavy industry . Got to call major bullshit on that fairy tail .
The Democrats have defined themselves ,
1. Identity politics
2. Eco-anarchist that will destroy the American economy if the nuts are let lose .
3. Support of illegal immanent voting , open borders , and release of drug dealers , murderers and rapists so they are not run out of the country by ICE .
4. Abortions after birth (murder of infants ) .Respectfully of course .
5. Promise to destroy millions of union and nonunion jobs in energy , airlines and essentially anything they consider bad . Yes, bring the entire economy crashing down .. OK except for those intermittent wind mills.
What a plan .
The hijacked Democrat Party is a complete joke that has lost it’s way .
They must be so broke to have to kiss the ass of California nut jobs .
Hillary doesn’t need to run . Is that the strategy ? Just show up when the clowns are at 25 % and slam a crown on .
At least with that Russia scam they were able to keep the loons under wrap for a while .
The only thing the world needs from these socialist fruit cakes is to
take a hike .
The Liberal Lunatic Party formerly known as the DNC apparently believe that virulent psychotic detachment from reality is a plus for their presidential candidates. A logical, sane, intelligent person has no chance. A coherent plan or strategy for our country is a detriment to winning the presidency. Their candidate must be unconventional and radical; humanity will not survive unless he/she given the reins of power.
Beto is a blatant Pied Piper whose aim is to mainstream anticipation of an imminent catastrophe. He talks about fantasies and/or feelings of helplessness as we face a destructive force we are unable to prevent. He is projecting the picture of societal destruction hoping to create the anxiety of annihilation in everyone. I don’t expect you’ll learn the truth about Beto from what’s left of our media. In the mean time, I’m not buying what this nut is selling.
Beto O’Rourke couldn’t even get it right when he said Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said the world will end in 12 years if nothing is done. What she said was the world would begin to end in 12 years, not that it would end in 12 years.
I have been closely followed this fraud almost since the beginning and there have been many dead lines for saving the world which are now past. We didn’t take the action they wanted and the world is still here.
AO-C was referring to the “tipping point” . I don’t know if she understands the theory.
I’m sure that Albert Gore mentioned it as well.
Supposedly, global warming will take off on its own. Warming will thaw the Arctic and release the CO2 contained by permafrost. That CO2, added to our CO2, well, it’ll be our undoing, unstoppable. We’re way past Gore’s tipping point, now we’re counting down AO-C’s tipping point.
We can point out all their failed predictions. They keep making them. There’s something wrong with a society that believes them. Stupidity.
There are screwballs and there are screwballs and Beto,AOC,Cory Booker Etc are SCREWBALLS
