CARLSON TONIGHT."

MILLIONS OF SCHOOL CHILDREN

ACROSS AMERICA.

IN FACT, AROUND THE WORLD

SKIPPED SCHOOL TODAY.

THEY WEREN'T PLAYING HOOKY.

THEY WERE, INSTEAD,

PARTICIPATING IN A

COORDINATED LEFT WING

POLITICAL PROTEST.

IT WAS CALLED CLIMATE STRIKE

SO NATURALLY MSNBC WAS THERE

TO CHEER THEM ON.

>> NEW YORK CITY IS THE HOME

BASE FOR THESE PROTESTS.

SCHOOL OFFICIALS, PUBLIC

SCHOOL OFFICIALS ARE

ALLOWING NEARLY 1 MILLION

STUDENTS TO CUT CLASSES.

>> SOME OF THE SIGNS BY THE

WAY I HAVE SEEN SO FAR FOR

THIS RALLY ABSOLUTELY

FANTASTIC.

>> I'M NOT IN FAVOR OF

ENCOURAGING PEOPLE TO SKIP

CLASS.

IF THERE IS A CAUSE THAT IS

IMPORTANT, THIS IS IT.

SO GOOD ON YOU FOR GOING OUT

THERE AND TELLING PEOPLE

WHAT REALLY MATTERS.

CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU AND

THOSE LIKE YOU AROUND THE

WORLD.

>> Tucker: CONGRATULATIONS

ON SKIPPING SCHOOL.

THROUGHOUT THE DAY NEWS

ANCHORS ASSURED THEIR

VIEWERS THAT THE STRIKE WAS

IN FACT BEING LED BY THE

KIDS.

THEY WERE LYING, OF COURSE,

LIKE ALL ACTIVIST MOVEMENTS

CLIMATE STRIKE BY ADULTS FOR

POLITICAL PURPOSES

OBVIOUSLY.

THE OTHER LIE YOU HEARD

TODAY THE STRIKE WAS ABOUT

THE ENVIRONMENT.

IT WAS NOT ABOUT THE

ENVIRONMENT.

THE MAIN GOAL OF THE

PROTESTERS IN THIS COUNTRY

FOR EXAMPLE WAS TO IMPLEMENT

ALEXANDRIA OCASIO-CORTEZ'S

GREEN NEW DEAL.

YOU WILL REMEMBER FROM JUST

A FEW MONTHS AGO THAT THE

GREEN NEW DEAL IS NOT ABOUT

THE ENVIRONMENT.

IN FACT, OCASIO-CORTEZ'

CHIEF OF STAFF CONCEDED AS

MUCH.

WE'RE QUOTING NOW WE REALLY

THINK OF IT HOW DO YOU

CHANGE THE ENTIRE ECONOMY

THING, END QUOTE.

THAT SHOULDN'T SURPRISE YOU.

THE ENVIRONMENT MOVEMENT

ITSELF HAS ALL BUT GIVEN UP

ON THE ENVIRONMENT.

DON'T BELIEVE IT?

LOOK AROUND.

IS OUR COUNTRY CLEANER THAN

IT WAS?

NO, IT'S DIRTIER AND MORE

CROWDED AND IT GETS MORE OF

BOTH OF THOSE THINGS EVERY

YEAR.

THE LEFT DOESN'T CARE.

THEY ARE CHEERING IT ON.

WHY?

BECAUSE THEY WANT POWER.

AND IN CLIMATE CHANGE THEY

FOUND AN EMERGENCY BIG

ENOUGH TO JUSTIFY GRABBING

MORE POWER.

IN FACT TAKING CONTROL OF

EVERYTHING.

DON'T BELIEVE IT?

CHECK OUT THE MANIFESTO OF

YOUTH CLIMATE STRIKE THAT'S

ONE OF THE GROUPS LEADING

TODAY'S STRIKE.

THE DOCUMENT CALLS FOR,

AMONG OTHER THINGS, STATE

OWNED BANKS, SINGLE PAIR

HEALTHCARE.

AFFORDABLE HOUSING, IS

EXPANDED RIGHTS FOR SEXUAL

MINORITIES, ET CETERA.

NOW, YOU MAY AGREE WITH

THOSE POLITICAL GOALS OR YOU

MAY DISAGREE.

WHAT DO THEY HAVE TO DO WITH

THE ENVIRONMENT?

OBVIOUSLY NOTHING.

BUT WHATEVER, FULL SPEED

AHEAD.

BERNIE SANDERS AMONG OTHERS

IS NOW DEMANDING THAT THE

UNITED STATES BEGIN

ADMITTING WHAT HE CALLS

CLIMATE REFUGEES IN TO OUR

COUNTRY.

MAYBE IN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD.

THAT WOULD INCLUDE EVERYONE

SOUTH OF MIAMI OR NORTH OF

BUENAS ARIES ALL NOW HAVE A

RIGHT TO MOVE HERE BECAUSE

CLIMATE.

WHAT ARE THE CHANCES OF

SOMETHING LIKE THAT PASSING

CONGRESS, YOU ASK?

WELL, RIGHT AROUND ZERO.

CONGRESS WILL NEVER PASS A

LAW ALLOWING THAT.

AND SO THAT MEANS IN ORDER

TO GET WHAT THEY WANT,

PROGRESSIVES WILL HAVE TO

BYPASS CONGRESS NOT TO

MENTION VOTERS THEMSELVES.

AND THEY WOULD LIKE TO DO

THAT.

WATCH AS COLORADO SENATOR

MICHAEL BENNETT EXPLAINS

THAT THE MAIN THING IN THE

WAY OF HIS CLIMATE AGENDA

IS, YES, DEMOCRACY.

>> I THINK THIS IS A TEST

NOT WELL-UNDERSTOOD BY SOME

OF THE CANDIDATES IN THE

CASE AND NOT WELL-DEBATESIDE

OUR DEMOCRACY UP TO THIS

TASK?

AND THAT IS A REALLY

NONTRIVIAL QUESTION BECAUSE

I MEAN IT CLEARLY ISN'T

RIGHT NOW.

>> SO FAR WE HAVE NOT.

WE HAVEN'T BEEN.

AND WHEN YOU LOSE A NATIONAL

RACE AS WE DID IN '16 TO A

CLIMATE DENIER, THAT CREATES

A REAL CONCERN.

>> Tucker: IS OUR DEMOCRACY

UP TO THE TASK?

IF YOU ARE EVEN ASKING THAT

QUESTION, YOU ARE MISSING

THE POINT BECAUSE DEMOCRACY

IS THE POINT.

DAMN DEMOCRACY SAYS THE

LEFT.

STANDINGED IN THE WAY OF US

GETTING DETAIL OF EVERY LIFE

HAVE TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT

THAT.

THAT IS THEIR POSITION.

IN THE MEANTIME THOUGH THE

LEFT HAS A BACKUP PLAN.

IT'S THE SAME AS ALWAYS

BEEN.

PROPAGANDA.

ANOTHER DEMAND OF THE YOUTH

CLIMATE STRIKE GROUP IS WHAT

THEY ARE CALLING, QUOTE,

COMPREHENSIVE CLIMATE CHANGE

EDUCATION.

THEY WANT IT FOR CHILDREN

AGED 5 TO 14.

5 YEARS OLD.

WHY SO YOUNG?

WELL, BECAUSE WE ARE QUOTING

HERE: IMPRESSIONABILITY IS

HIGH DURING THAT

DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE, END

QUOTE.

IN OTHER WORDS, BRAINWASHING

IS EASIER WHEN THEY'RE

LITTLE.

AND THEN YOU HAVE THE MODERN

LEFT'S CLIMATE AGENDA.

NO DRINKING STRAWS NO.

AUTOMOBILES, NO MEAT NO

DEMOCRACY.

IN THEIR PLACE, ENDLESS

PROPAGANDA AND A PARADE OF

15-YEAR-OLD RED GUARD

YELLING AT YOU TO STAY IN

LINE.

THAT'S WHAT THEY ARE

PROMISING.
