TMI Show Ep 147: “FBI Targeting Climate Activists”

Prepare for a frightening episode of “The TMI Show with hosts Ted Rall and Manila Chan,” joined by Dr. Reese Halter. We’re tackling disturbing reports that the Trump Administration has directed the FBI to surveil, question, and harass peaceful climate-change and environmental activists. In Boston, at least six activists, including members of Extinction Rebellion, were visited at their homes by FBI agents with no clear motive, evidently intended as intimidation.

Elsewhere, groups like the Appalachian Community Capital Corporation and DC Green Bank, funded by Biden-era grants, face FBI probes for alleged fraud, which looks like harassment ordered by right-wing EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin to push against environmental justice initiatives.

These actions threaten free speech and the right to advocate for environmental causes. Why are nonviolent activists in the government’s sights? What does this mean for civil liberties and environmental justice? With sharp analysis, Ted, Manila, and Dr. Halter, a renowned environmental scientist, will unpack the motives behind this crackdown, examining its chilling effect on activism. The TMI Show delivers unfiltered insights, cutting through mainstream narratives to reveal the truth. This critical discussion is a must-watch for those concerned about government overreach and the future of environmental advocacy.
