‘View’ co-hosts berate ‘annoying’ climate activists who threw paint on Monet painting: ‘Leave art alone’

Monet painting in Sweden this week, claiming they are ruining everyone’s days with the actions, even those who agree with them on the issue.Co-host Joy Behar ripped the recent climate stunt as “annoying,” while co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin agreed, calling it “counterproductive” for climate activists.Whoopi Goldberg rebuked the protestors, declaring that vandalizing art is “not your job,” even if the earth is suffering. The points came up while the co-hosts were discussing “Eat, Pray, Love” author Elizabeth Gilbert postponing the publishing of her new book, “The Snow Forest,” due to Ukrainian critics slamming it for being set in Russia.Though the book has nothing to do with Ukraine’s current ordeal at the hands of its invaders and merely provided Russia as a setting for the work, Gilbert delayed the release indefinitely, citing the pain of the oppressed Ukrainian people.The ladies disagreed with Gilbert caving to critics and mounted a defense of not stifling art simply based on the politics of the day.They then applied that point to the recent string of climate activists attempting to vandalize great western art in galleries across Europe.Most recently, two female climate activists were arrested in Stockholm, Sweden for throwing a paint-like substance on the classic Claude Monet painting, “The Artist’s Garden At Giverny” at Sweden’s National Museum this week.The painting was covered with glass, but museum staff have reportedly been analyzing the piece to see if any damage occurred.The attempted act of vandalism is one of many similar climate change protests, aimed to shock bystanders into taking the threat of climate change more seriously.Though even the liberal ladies of “The View” insisted that these protests miss the

Fox News’ Jesse Watters has surprising explanation for progressive extremism

When he interviewed people for his man-on-the-street segments, Fox News personality Jesse Watters typically only got to talk to them for 10 minutes at most. Now that he’s a primetime host, he has even less time to get into it with interview subjects. That fact inspired his new book “Get It Together: Troubling Tales from the Liberal Fringe” (Broadside Books, Tuesday).“I wasn’t getting close to the core: Why do people believe things? How did they end up with their worldviews? What gave them these radical ideas?” he writes.“I set out looking to interview out-of-the-mainstream Americans. Not debate them, just listen to their life stories. I’d listen for two hours, three hours, sometimes four. What I found was that their maverick ideology was rooted in personal struggle. I’d always assumed someone’s political belief system was based upon the books they’d read or the media they’d consumed. Not entirely. A big factor in a person’s policy preference or political identity? Formative experiences in their youth.”He writes that “many of the characters I interviewed for this project had experienced drugs and alcohol early” and “almost all of them had disastrous parents.”The resulting book is divided into 22 chapters, each focusing on a extreme leftist and looking at not just what they believe but how they came to believe it. Have a look at three in this excerpt: THE OPEN BORDERS PROFESSORJoe Carens, a political science professor at The University of Toronto, is described as “one of the world’s leading political philosophers on the issue” of immigration.
