Climate change cultists seem intent upon disrupting wherever they can.
They did that again today at the Harvard-Yale football game.
The game came to a halt during halftime when protesters rushed the field and refused to leave, sitting in the middle of the field and unfurling banners about fighting “climate injustice.”
Harvard-Yale game delayed by student protest over climate injustice.

It’s unconscionable that Harvard and Yale continue to profit off of fossil fuels, private prisons, and the Puerto Rican debt. #nobodywins pic.twitter.com/vBm9kaVpC2

They were demanding that the Ivy League divest from fossil fuels and cancel Puerto Rican debt.
When the halftime ended and they were still on the field, hundreds more streamed onto the field with some chanting against fossil fuels and the PA announcer begging them to leave.
Finally, after about an hour, police made their move sweeping the field from one sideline to the other to get people off. Anyone remaining after that, was arrested. A couple of dozen were tied together, two at a time, and led away by the police.

And the climate continued merrily on, not in the least bit affected by their antics.
They did get some support from the usual suspects.

You know what’s more important than a football game?
The survival of the human race
Complain all you want but if we don’t do something now Harvard won’t be able to continue beating Yale 100 years from now because there will be no human race. #HarvardYale

50 years from now how is Harvard going to kick Yale’s ass if the game gets stopped because of high tide? #HarvardYale

50 years? Don’t we only have about 9-12 years left? Or was it 15 months now?
As a Canadian, I was always told that Yale and Harvard were prestigious schools.
Have we been lied to up here?

Yes.
As former Secret Service agent Dan Bongino tweeted, “If we haven’t yet reached peak stupid, then we are assuredly about to cross the event horizon.”
I’m gonna get 2 plastic straws for my iced coffee today just because of this. #maybe3
