We won in NY. Billionaires spent MILLIONS trying to override us. We won anyway. But now they’re regrouping. Seething in their penthouses. Spilling champagne on their Hermès ties. Calling emergency donor meetings. They’re going to hit back. So here’s what we're NOT doing: going back to brunch.

If billionaires can buy NYC's mayoral election even after voters rejected their candidate in the primary, they can buy ANYTHING. Hey, New York: Don't let oligarchy win.

Veto a climate bill? Expect a response

MAJOR UPDATE: We caught Maryland Governor Wes Moore attending a private breakfast meeting at the home of Exxon lobbyist Michael McKay. Today we share the never-before-seen footage from inside that meeting.

Words fail. Words fail. A new paper from University of Exeter just found that coral reefs have hit their tipping point - the precipice from which there may be no return. This is a calamity. This is a disaster. This is code red for humanity. (1/11) 🧵

Sometimes you do need to beat a dead horse

Sex is cool, but have you ever heckled Andrew Cuomo for 10 minutes straight?

BREAKING: We just shut down a major cancer gala honoring Trump EPA Chief Lee Zeldin.

JUST IN: We just disrupted this vile, vulture capitalist lovefest. David Rubenstein, Governor Youngkin, and Governor Moore all on stage together, plotting how to profit from our extinction. They were having such a nice time. We ruined it.

They're worried about Tylenol being dangerous for kids? Cool, cool. Now do the actual fucking carcinogens in our drinking water from fracking.

BREAKING: We humiliated Lisa Murkowski. We shut her down. We made it clear she will never know a moment's peace as long as she keeps selling off our future to her evil cabal of fossil fuel CEOs.

#JimmyKimmel: *criticizes conservative* ABC: SUSPENDED!! Oil execs: *knowingly destroy planet for profit* ABC: Welcome to our morning show!

We just disrupted #BigOil's favorite PR kingpin, #RichardEdelman, at his 'Leading with Trust' talk in NY. LeAdiNg WiTh tRuSt — give us a fucking break! This fossil fuel spin doctor builds disinformation campaigns to advance the fossil fuel industry's planet-burning agenda.

When the powerful treat our future as collateral damage, direct action becomes a moral fucking imperative. We just exposed the soulless Joe Manchin at the launch for his book, "Dead Center: In Defense of Common Sense", while he sat blinking on stage like a malfunctioning robot.

You’ve seen us bringing the heat to climate criminals, now see us bring the LOLz at ‘The Climate Defiance Comedy Show’ next Wed Sep 24 at 8:30pm ET at Rodney’s in NYC for Climate Week (doors open at 8pm).

The Colorado Energy + Carbon Management Commission (ECMC) is about to wager our kids' future on 32 fracking wells + we are mad AF about it. The #SunlightLong pad sits just 3,300ft from #AuroraReservoir, threatening water for THOUSANDS + poisoning the air 10k households breathe. Read that all again!

Join us this Sunday 09/21 in the Upper West Side for our powerhouse Benefit Reception to ring in Climate Week NYC! This ISN'T your typical Climate Week event with empty promises + corporate platitudes. It's about leaders who ACTUALLY give a f*ck about our future: secure.actblue.com/donate/clima...

While you've been trying to live your life, the planet has been busy setting itself on fire. Last year became the hottest year ever recorded; atmospheric CO2 hit 422.8 parts per million; and the U.S. alone saw $27b in climate disasters, killing 568 people + causing $182.7b in damages.

We disrupted #EnerCom again, while these joker attendees yelled "We love wildfires!" Do they really think their money will save their homes from the next wildfire? Or that their privilege will save their grandchildren's lungs when we can no longer breathe the air?

Yes!!

New polling shows 77% of Democrat voters thinks Israel is committing genocide; half of the country (all voters) thinks Israel is committing genocide; Americans now sympathize more with Palestinians than Israelis for the first time ever; + Democrat voters overwhelmingly oppose sending more weapons.

20 years ago today, Katrina made landfall in Louisiana, resulting in the death of 1800+ people. Today, survivors are still unhoused. Still fucked by systems that forgot them the minute CNN stopped filming. Still remembering banks who promised help but delivered foreclosures. Still living with PTSD.

🚨 We shut down EnerCom's Casino Night to send fossil fuel investors a message: STOP GAMBLING WITH OUR FUTURE! These corporate executives were literally playing poker while the planet BURNS. While communities get poisoned. While we inherit a dying world.

HUGE UPDATE: We shut down a major address by Trump's EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin at the Hamptons Synagogue. We humiliated him. Sordid monster, hideous, grotesque, ecocidal murderer, he torches our planet and he laughs.

@climatedefiance.bsky.social remembers that Gillibrand led the capitulation to the Trump-Musk CR.l with Schumer. Do you?

This weekend we gatecrashed a $5000 private fundraiser for U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand in the Hampton’s. It’s brunch, but make it fuck them. (1/7)🧵

Murkowski is a murderer. She is a vile, anti-social misanthrope and we are damn proud to say we shut her down as she got called up to the stage to receive an award from the VP of Chevron. (1/11)

Words fail. Words utterly fail. As we write the US Senate is advancing a bill that would defund medicaid, defund food stamps, and incinerate our earth. It would be an act of ecocide - deliberate planetary sabotage - on a scale never seen. We explain 🧵(1/17)

BREAKING: we just shut down Senator Lisa Murkowski's book talk at the 6th and I Synagogue. We humiliated her in front of her friends. We made her leave in shame. It's an outrage she is even considering approving the "Big Beautiful Bill." This cannot stand. This will not stand.

REGIME CHANGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WHY ARE YOU MORE UPSET ABOUT ZOHRAN’S WORD CHOICES THAN ABOUT ANDREW CUOMO’S ACTIVE, ONGOING, UNEQUIVOCAL, UNAMBIGUOUS, EXPLICIT, DIRECT INVOLVEMENT IN A GENOCIDE?

In 10 days, I'm doing this event with the fine folks at @climatedefiance.bsky.social. I expect the conversation to be 🔥🔥If you're in the LA area, join us--for details and to RSVP: secure.actblue.com/donate/lajun...

BREAKING! We disrupted George Latimer, AIPAC’s number one man in Washington. Latimer doesn’t win elections, he buys them on behalf of Israel. Latimer prioritizes the Israel lobby over the most disadvantaged in his district. On behalf of all New Yorkers, fuck you George Latimer.

BREAKING! We HUMILIATED Charles Koch last night in Washington DC. His family has forked over 150 mil to climate denial propaganda and right-wing institutions. To say this man is a villain is an understatement. Charles Koch doesn't deserve an award, he deserves to be tried in The Hague.

‼️BREAKING‼️ Real New Yorkers are speaking out: we do NOT want Andrew Cuomo as our next mayor. We remember the truth. He covered up nursing home deaths. He protected abusers and silenced survivors. He failed us during COVID, then tried to spin it like he saved us.

STOP COMPARING ICE AGENTS TO NAZIS THEY ARE JUST FOLLOWING ORDERS

WHY ARE YOU MORE CONCERNED ABOUT YOUR 401K THAN ABOUT THE FACT THAT NO FOOD HAS ENTERED GAZA IN SIX WEEKS? WHAT THE FUCK?

‼️BREAKING‼️ We disrupted Sen. Lankford from Oaklahoma at his book talk in DC. He doesn’t serve Oaklahomans- he serves AIPAC and big oil which fund his elections. He’s a robber baron. He’s a sham. He’s as evil as they get. Whats stopping you from cursing out more politicians?

Let’s GOOO. Absolutely PACKED house in DC at our Project 2026 launch party. Filled shoulder-to-shoulder. A national shift is under way. The atmosphere has changed. Our people are FIRED UP and ready to take the billionaire class head-on. Thank you to @rokhanna.bsky.social for headlining.

Sow // reap

We disrupted Senator Michael Bennet's town hall. Bennet has taken over $500k in money tied to oil & gas in his career, according to data compiled by Open Secrets. Colorado demands better, Senator! Step up, or step aside.

Yes we did

BIG UPDATE: Today we are launching Project 2026, the people's movement to quash oligarchy and save our country and climate. Here's the four-part plan: 🧵

1/ Climate Defiance stands in lockstep solidarity with Mahmoud Khalil. Over the weekend, Mahmoud was abducted by ICE and torn from his 8-month-pregnant wife. He is now missing. This is a rapidly developing story. Here's what we know so far: 🧵

UPDATE: we disrupted capitalist-in-chief Larry Summers. Larry is a Wall Street-worshipping maniac who’s spent decades selling out the planet and working people to line the pockets of the ultra-rich.

He is weak. He is small. He is scared. He is alone. He uses outrages to distract. He overplays his hand. He overreaches from a place of insecurity. His friendships are situational. His enemies are committed. He will overshoot. He will flail. He will fall. He will find out.

WHY ARE YOU MORE UPSET ABOUT COLLEGE KIDS OCCUPYING A QUAD THAN THE UNITED STATES OCCUPYING GAZA?

If you are “outraged” when a Republican President threatens to annex Gaza, but silent when a Democratic one helps drop 2,000-pound bombs on it, kindly shut your mouth forever.

Today we name names. This man in the suit is Jaime Harrison. He is the chair of the Democratic Party. He personally manhandled one of our volunteers at this weekend’s Democratic debate. He fights the youth climate movement harder than he fights the oil barons. He is a former BP lobbyist. Bye.
