A bunch of far left climate organizers invaded a meeting at Harvard University featuring 76-year-old Seantor Joe Manchin.
The group hurled slurs and insults at the Senator, yelling that Manchin “sold our futures and got rich doing it, you sick f**k.”
Manchin was speaking to a group at the Harvard Kennedy School INstitute of POlitics discussing his decision not to run for re-election. While speaking the group barged in to protests his support of the Mountain Valley Pipeline project that is a 300 mile project designed to “bring natural gas from West Virginia to southern Virginia, cutting a path through the Appalachian Mountains, a national forest, and hundreds of stream crossings.”
“Approval of the $6.6 billion project was included in legislation last spring to raise the debt ceiling and was viewed as a concession made by the White House to Manchin for his support.”
The group of protestors were members of a group called the Climate Defiance and claim they are a “youth-led group using direct action to resist fossil fuels.” The group bragged over its disruption on X on Friday, posting, “We just called Joe Manchin a sick f**k. We humiliated him in front of a herd of Harvard elites. He squared up. We held firm. Barbaric murderer, hideous fiend, he torches humanity and laughs.”
Yeah, about holding firm…Didn’t look like it to me.
One of the protestors got shown the business and he didn’t look like he was built for it.

Dude got ejected.
A Harvard spokesperson said in a statement to WHDH Boston: “A Harvard University police officer ordered the protesters to leave the Kennedy School campus, and the protesters complied… Harvard University Police Department and the Kennedy School are reviewing the incident.”
