WALSH: Environmentalists Have Become A Doomsday Cult, And They're Needlessly Terrifying Our Children

Dianne Feinstein caught a lot of flack over the weekend after an out-of-context video went viral. The clip shows Feinstein's exchange with a bunch of kids from a radical environmentalist group called the Sunrise Movement. The kids demand that Feinstein support the Green New Deal while the senator does her level best to educate the youngsters on the finer points of the legislative process.

The outraged masses claim that Feinstein was "disrespectful" and "rude" to the children. The full video clearly shows that she was enormously patient, at one point offering an internship to one of the kids. Even the short clip is favorable to Feinstein. She isn't the one who needs to apologize for her behavior. The impertinence was entirely on the part of the kids, who spent several minutes lecturing and scolding an adult. I'm old fashioned enough to still believe in respecting your elders. The parents of these children have clearly neglected to teach them that crucial lesson.

But the most disturbing thing about the footage, aside from the bratty behavior of those poorly-raised children, is the very real fear you can hear in their voices and see on their faces. They really believe that the world might soon end and the Green New Deal is the only thing that can pull us back from the brink. They believe such nonsense because that's what the adults in their lives have told them.

Also, keep in mind all of this green crap is to track you... Mark my words here right now!!!!!! Notice they never make any energy efficient propane anything, or natural gas anything, it is all electrical use devices that are being efficient, that is because the govt told manufactures and that start energy to only give ratings to energy efficient electric devices, not gas or propane... It is all part of the smart grid... You will see though, soon enough...

How can Parents not see the indoctrination of their children in schools instead of being taught the Reading, Writing, Arithmetic and true facts of History that would encourage their children to excel in life.

39 trillion proposal?? How the F*** can you be 22 trillion in debt and go in front of a camera and brag about spending another 39 lining the pockets of you and all your friends

Always amazes me that the media goes after a subject and uses it every minute, ever hour, as the song says. Before it was Russian Collusion for several years. Now we have to look at that goofy thing that should not be in public office. I was tired of her before she was given the position. No she will be on every minute, every hour, going green for several years. I can't see the attraction, or how you people vote for such a dummy.

3:07 I agree with your philosophy, but you are wrong about gas & propane appliances. I replaced my propane furnace a couple years ago, the new one has a yellow decal stating energy efficient
