Teenage Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg will testify before Congress at an Earth Day hearing on Thursday, the same day that President Joe Biden will convene world leaders for a virtual conference on climate change.

Thunberg, Time's person of the year in 2019 for her work on climate change, will appear before a House Oversight Committee panel for a hearing entitled "The Role of Fossil Fuel Subsidies in Preventing Action on the Climate Crisis.”

Key context: The testimony will occur as Biden hosts a climate change summit with 40 world leaders. The White House has struggled so far to prod world leaders to bring new commitments to that event.

I hope the first question the GOP asks her is where she received  her phD in Climatology.

Second question:  On whose private jet did she travel to DC.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

Harris, Biden and Greta would make a great team.  See no evil, hear no evil, and evil.

You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

Only American politicians would be so disrespectful of their citizens as to bring in a 17-18 yr. old, with autism, who has been exposed as nothing but a liberal talking head on climate change to testify before congress.  That's like bringing in Adolf Hitler to testify about all the great things National Socialism does for Jews.  It is incredibly insulting to waste taxpayer money of this fake. :#@$%:
