During a U.S. House Natural Resources Committee hearing Wednesday, Joe Biden’s Interior Secretary Deb Haaland, a former congresswoman from New Mexico, burst into tears while talking about “climate change.”
She said, “All of this is because climate change is the crisis of our lifetime!” claiming weather events were responsible for changes in temperature. “We can’t continue to be a one-industry country, referring to oil, gas, and coal.
WATCH:
Also during the hearing, Rep. Pete Stauber (R-MN), chair of the Energy and Mineral Resources Subcommittee, rebuked Haaland about the administration’s decision to ban new mining near the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness.
Stauber claimed Haaland had “no idea” what she was doing when her department issued the “ill-informed decision,” which he said, “has left the U.S. more dependent on China.”
Ranking member Raúl Grijalva (D-AZ) came to Haaland’s defense, claiming Republicans were “berating” her during the tense hearing.
Politico reported the hearing to be “tense.”
Following the dissemination of the clip showing Haaland crying, the New Mexico-based Rio Grande Foundation think tank wrote, “Climate change is the official religion of the left. But they would rather abandon nuclear power than actually solve the problem.”
In many previous congressional hearings where Haaland has testified, she has failed to answer basic questions that pertain to her role as Interior secretary.
Fake crocodile tears
What happened to the brave Indian warrior spirit?
You wouldn’t last a minute on any reservation, clown.
Cry me a river.
Pathetic. She should get a rile in “The Room” remake. God knows nobody in their right mind would get her a room.
She’s as incompetent as all the other ‘affirmative action’ employees that BiteMeJoe has hired.
“Affirmative action” employees is priceless!
Haaland’s Trail of Tears moment.
If you spent any time on the Rez, you’d go crying for your Mama and the nearest In-and-Out burger.
I’ve never known you to be a racist. Seems the cracks have opened wide.
Ok, I like that she cares. But does she care because she is misinformed? I am passionate as well but is it because I care as well but I think I have a better hold on reality.
One industry country? Biden is sending everything else to China.
A true climate religion convert
Remember: she, as a ‘survivor of a 12 step program’, is a ‘recovering alcoholic’…ie: never recovered. Perhaps she suddenly realizes the fantasy of the mass dementia called ‘Global Warming/Climate Change’…but don’t count on it.
There’s no crying in politics!
Why not?
Haaland is a disgrace for our country and NM.
Lefty ignorant tool. Her administration’s policies, aided by her, will destroy Nem Mexico’s economy.
You are a disgrace to God.
Fake news.
Let’s demand that ALL of the raw materials for solar panels, wind farms, and batteries be mined here in the US, and especially in New Mexico which has major mining potential. We need mines everywhere, running on coal-fired power plants and diesel digging equipment. Will that make her happy?
We need to stop humans from exploiting our earth!
Still bent about the money she “mishandled” for the Pueblos.
Another example of the corrupt Loserjan regime putting in a person of color who has NO experience just to fill the quota. Haaland hasn’t done ANYTHING productive–including within the tribal area she supposedly represents! Like the other 2 idiots in Washington who BS’d the people for a vote,(little Benny-boy Loserjan and Hiney-lick), Haaland turned her back on New Mexico when she boarded the plane to Washington and has never looked back or given a sh** about this Great State of New Mexico!!
