Climate change activists flooded downtown Washington on Monday, snarling the rush-hour commute by blocking some the city's busiest intersections.
Operating under the umbrella of #ShutDownDC, at least 20 different groups — including the environmentalist 350.org and Black Lives Matter — hit key points of the Beltway commute, At the corner of New York Avenue and 3rd Street NW, at least 26 people had been arrested by 9:30 a.m., according to a Metropolitan Police Department spokeswoman.
How absurd. So, they back up traffic, vehicles sitting there burning fuel releasing carbon they say is the main issue. Not to mention all the resources they are wasting with their banners and signs and plastic water bottles. How much did they leave in the streets?

Meanwhile across the Atlantic, Macron continues to brutalize French protestors. But you won’t hear anything about this 45-week-old uprising thnx to the corporate media. YellowVests GiletsJaunes MacronResign MacronDemission
