[VIDEO] Climate Cultist Gets Tossed Around Like a Rag Doll by Joe Manchin’s Top Aide

In the world of climate activism, some folks  take their passion to the extreme, earning the nickname "climate cult" for their fervent dedication to the cause. For these individuals, climate change isn't just a topic for debate—it's practically a religious calling.

Recently, tensions flared between a protester and one of Joe Manchin's aides, highlighting  the heated atmosphere surrounding environmental issues. The confrontation unfolded at Harvard University, where Manchin was making an appearance, and was sparked by the senator's support for the Mountain Valley Pipeline.

The protester, fueled by outrage, confronted  Manchin directly, accusing him of "selling out" futures and hurling expletives. The situation escalated further when the aide intervened, physically restraining the protester and halting the verbal assault.

From The Daily Mail UK:


After holding Manchin back, Communications Director Jonathan Kott can be seen grabbing and throwing the instigator out the door, sending him to the ground.

The protestor, later identified as a member of the new, youth-led group Climate Defiance, was joined by several others who took issue with how the 76-year-old Democrat facilitated the ongoing construction of the Mountain Valley Pipeline.

The natural gas pipeline, which has been in the works since 2014, is expected to run through Manchin’s home state of West Virginia and into southern Virginia, cutting through the Appalachian Trail. The activist, in turn, called the senator a 'sick f**k.'

'You sold our futures and you got rich doing it,' the unnamed male protestor said, before hitting the 14-year senator with the aforementioned, 'You sick f***!'

Manchin responded by rising from his seat in an apparent attempt to get into the protestor’s face.

But the protester, as previously indicated, remained persistent. 

“How dare you?' he continued, while appearing increasingly confrontational. 'You have sold our-'

His last line was cut off - as Kott was seen getting between the pair before sending the young activist literally tumbling out of the room.

It was not immediately clear if the activist was injured as a result of his outburst, but moments afterward, the group he belongs to took to X to take credit for the now widely seen encounter.
