Dianne Feinstein rebuffs young climate activists' calls for Green New Deal

The California senator has been criticised for her response to a group of children and teenagers asking her to support the Green New Deal. Video footage shows Feinstein flatly rejecting the activists’ request, telling them: 'I’ve been doing this for 30 years. I know what I’m doing'

The Guardian YouTube network:

These kids screwed up. You're supposed to hand the senator the check first, then tell them what you want them to support.

[pulphope]

SNL brought me here, knew the reality would be much funnier XD

[choops]

LOL. Your 16, you didn't vote for me

[EliAngwin]

Social engineering and manipulation at its finest.

[mikedee]

LMFAO, that teacher thought bringing little kids to her office would change her mind. "words matter"

[lucadhagat]

"We can't pay for it" says the Senator who's continuously authorized increases in military spending.

:Feinstein told the activists 'I’ve been doing this for 30 years. I know what I’m doing.' She must have been talking about filling her campaign coffers over the last 30 years from the fossil folks.

Not a Feinstein fan. BUT who set this up? A clear hit job. WHO??

[jeanlucdiscard]

Kids: "Hey I am really concerned about our future and the future of our planet."

Feinstein: "That's not my purse, I don't know you!!!"

[Geletin]

"It's my way or the highway - I don't respond to that" - yet, works for government.

[crazydipz]

Don't really agree with Senator Feinstein on MANY things but I will say I commend her for not backing down in here. Good Job!

[RULERofCERTAINthings]

HAHA this is such an obvious hit piece, dems are tearing each other apart

[afzaluahmed]

LOL. World is going to end in 12 years folks.

[genericign]

Why are teachers politicizing their students

[eworks]

Feinstein-"Kids I am going to teach you the most valuable lesson in your life" Learn to think and act for yourself because government is me.

[DJ]

They were trying to use kids to corner her. I would’ve responded the same way.

[DevinsDen]

Damn she was born in 1933. We absolutely need term limits.

[kvswpoi]

"Young activists" lmao this is cringe. I'm sure these *children* understand the nuances of the discussion.

[stealthwolf]

I think we should start taxing children's allowances.

[fortunazee]

Her 7 grandchildren are richer than these kids.
