It’s Earth Day, everyone! And let’s not forget this day was co-founded by a psychopathic murderer who then composted the girlfriend he just murdered:

And with that said, the group Extinction Rebellion appears to be carrying on in the original spirit of Earth Day’s co-founder with this insane stunt at the White House this morning:

Enlisting the help of children “is a nice touch”:

Hopefully:
I really hope her mom wipes that stroller down.

The group then linked the death of George Floyd to the “Climate Emergency”:
They’re from Extinction Rebellion, a group that often does stunt protests. A speaker right now is telling us how the Climate Emergency is intimately connected to George Floyd’s death.

UPDATE: But of course they left the mess for someone else to clean up:

But their shenanigans were not isolated to the U.S. Over in London, Extinction Rebellion vandals were arrested after breaking this sign at the HSBC building:
Think how much more C02 and other harmful waste will b put into our atmosphere in the repair/replacement of this vandalism Today you achieve nothing but damaging the thing you say you want to save What a load of complete idiots #ExtinctionRebellion my arse pic.twitter.com/92gtNn72gL
