"The Kamala Harris campaign has tapped eco-loony Camila Thorndike as its “climate engagement director,” a far-left activist who says oil and gas workers are part of the “toxic patriarchy.”
"This “race against fascism is still too close,” Thorndike stated last week. “The only way to stop Trump’s Project 2025 from wrecking our progress and lives is to take action.”
"In early September, the Harris-Walz campaign brought on Thorndike, who had worked for Sen. Bernie Sanders as a legislative aide drafting climate-related policies, and who served in a senior director post at Rewiring America.
"While with Sanders, Thorndike said there is “something evil” about the fossil fuels sector, adding that “there’s no greater source of harm than continuing to cook the planet.”
As pointed out by the attentive folks at the Washington Free Beacon, Thorndike has a history of radical climate activism, in which she has attempted to demonize anyone associated with fossil fuels.
In one post, she said she has had no children because of the fear they would die young, asserting that “the fossil fuel industry’s ecoterrorism” is “great birth control.” . . .
Climate Change Activists Endorse Kamala Harris
"The final claim is based on an anonymously-sourced Washington Post article from May; Trump has only received about $14 million from oil and gas industry donors this cycle.
“Climate change is killing the earth and ruining our economy,” DiCaprio continued. “We need a bold step forward to save our economy, our planet, and ourselves. That’s why I’m voting for Kamala Harris.”
"Shockingly, the actor touted Harris’s tie-breaking vote on the “Inflation Reduction Act,” which he describes as “the most significant climate action in U.S. history.” The law has haunted Harris’s campaign, as it did nothing to stop soaring prices, and President Joe Biden has even admitted it was deceptively named." . . .
