Liberal Attorneys General Have Been Working On a Plan To PROSECUTE Climate Change Skeptics

dem-ags

Since the election, unhinged liberals have been running around like maniacs calling Donald Trump a fascist before he has even taken office.

Meanwhile, a group of liberal attorneys general have been working on a plan to prosecute climate change deniers.

Who are the real fascists?

The Daily Signal reports:

The California Gathering That Hatched Plan to Prosecute Skeptics of Climate Change

Just before joining climate change activist and former Vice President Al Gore for a press conference in New York City, seven state-level attorneys general huddled with a representative of the Union of Concerned Scientists. The political activist, Peter Frumhoff, called for them and other elected officials to move decisively against major corporations and institutions for “denying” climate change.

The seeds of that call to action in March were planted four years earlier at a gathering of environmental activists, trial lawyers, and academics across the country in San Diego.

The Daily Signal found this and other revealing bits of information among material produced in response to a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit filed against Virginia’s George Mason University, home to six academics who urged the Obama administration to prosecute individuals and organizations for not agreeing that man has caused climate change.

The detail is important because Rep. Lamar Smith, R-Texas, chairman of the House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology, demanded that 17 state attorneys general who call themselves “AGs United for Clean Energy” provide documents on interactions among their offices—and with various environmental organizations.

Such details obtained through the lawsuit “reveal the incestuous relationship between climate change activists and partisan state attorneys general,” Hans von Spakovsky, a senior legal fellow at The Heritage Foundation, told The Daily Signal. He added:

They are subverting our democratic system by using the courts to silence the opposition to their economically costly, unneeded policy solutions for an unproven scientific theory. Americans should be outraged by this abuse of governmental powers by the chief law enforcement officials of these states.

Here’s the group’s website.

Let’s recap.

Liberals are trying to pervert our legal system to make it a crime to disagree with them about climate change.

And Donald Trump is a fascist?
