"Climate Homicide: Prosecuting Big Oil for Climate Deaths" is a study that was released by Harvard Environmental Law Review in 2023, and BlazeTV host Stu Burguiere calls it “the most influential piece of propaganda in this particular form.”The article finds that in jurisdictions across the United States, fossil fuel companies could be prosecuted for every type of homicide, short of first-degree murder. It also concludes that prosecutions could offer highly effective remedies that prosecutors could be motivated to seek.“Hey, we can find a way for climate deaths to be prosecuted as homicide, basically under every jurisdiction in America, as long as you don’t say it’s first-degree murder,” Stu mocks on “Stu Does America.” “And then in addition to that, you guys should note these will be good remedies for the policies that we want. Right.”Now, a few years later, the term “climate homicide” is beginning to rear its head.“The model is lawsuits against the cigarette companies, but individuals smoke cigarettes sold by particular companies. The theory here is that the fossil fuel companies have injured everyone in the entire world now and in the future by means of any business operations with any customers, with the chain of causation running through the atmosphere and climate of the entire planet,” Dan McLaughlin wrote in an article for the National Review.“It is completely ridiculous,” Stu comments. “But those cases are now popping up.”One oil company is being sued for the 2021 death of a woman, Juliana Leon, during a heatwave. Her daughter has sued seven oil and gas companies claiming wrongful death, with her suit alleging that “they failed to warn the public of the dangers of the planet-warming emissions produced by their products and that they funded decades-long campaigns to obscure the scientific consensus on global warming.”“All of this just popped out there as if it's a complete fact,” Stu says, noting that Leon began to go after the oil companies after being approached by a nonprofit group called the Center for Climate Integrity, which helps assemble and promote cases against large oil and gas companies.“So this is just a left-wing typical operation here,” Stu says.The supposed victim, Leon, was on her way back from a doctor's appointment after having bariatric surgery two weeks prior, when the air conditioning in her car broke.“So she had just gone through a very traumatic event with her body, she was quite vulnerable to heat stroke, and of course, the car’s AC broke,” Stu explains, adding, “Not only had she had the surgery, she hadn’t eaten any food in two weeks. Which, again, would probably make you very vulnerable.”Want more from Stu?To enjoy more of Stu's lethal wit, wisdom, and mockery, subscribe to BlazeTV — the largest multi-platform network of voices who love America, defend the Constitution, and live the American dream.

TUKWILA, Wash. — While most attention was on the No Kings march in Seattle on Saturday, a different crowd had gathered at a Department of Homeland Security building 15 minutes outside the city. The group of around 100, mostly dressed in black bloc, had spilt into two groups to physically block the north and south driveways to prevent government vehicles from leaving.Not only were Antifa agitators using their bodies to block the driveway, they had created makeshift barricades out of traffic signs and random materials found nearby. At first, only three officers with the Federal Protective Service were outside keeping watch over the crowd on the south end of the building, with the Antifa crowd heckling them for hours.Suddenly, members of the Tukwila Police Department arrived on scene to order the gathering to move from the driveway. The Antifa mob, who was facing the DHS building, turned around and refused to move. The Tukwila officers went into the crowd, firing crowd-control munitions to force the unruly throng off of the driveway.While Los Angeles was the first city to experience prolonged riots after a federal operation earlier this month, it has inspired far-left radicals to get out into the streets once again.U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents came out of the building to support the local police, moving in from behind to clear the road. At least one rioter was arrested by federal agents. Federal vehicles raced out once the driveway was clear.The rioters did not completely scatter after being forced to the sidewalk. The Tukwila police officers were attacked as they withdrew from the scene, and the CBP agents went back inside the building. The Antifa participants rebuilt the barricade with the few pieces that were usable.RELATED: Republicans clash with Democratic lawmakers defending violent anti-ICE rioters — (@) The scene that played out near Seattle is part of the growing violent response to the Trump administration's massive illegal immigrant crackdown. While Los Angeles was the first city to experience prolonged riots after a federal operation earlier this month, it has inspired far-left radicals to get out into the streets once again.The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement building in Portland, Oregon, which was one of the many places targeted by Antifa in 2020, has been attacked on a near daily basis this past week. Videos from this weekend showed DHS agents having to confront the Antifa rioters.RELATED: Trump orders ICE to ramp up deportations in Dem-controlled cities following MAGA backlash over selective pause on raids Trump orders ICE to ramp up deportations in Dem-controlled cities following MAGA backlash over selective pause on raids Photo by Win McNamee/Getty Images "Four officers were injured. Secretary Noem’s message to the rioters is clear: you will not stop us or slow us down. ICE and our federal law enforcement partners will continue to enforce the law. If you lay a hand on a law enforcement officer, you will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law," DHS said on X. — (@) The radicals in Portland have gone as far as to post flyers with the names, pictures, and addresses of federal agents around the far-left city.It remains to be seen how long the far-left will keep up the momentum. With the continued deployment of U.S. Marines and National Guardsmen in Los Angeles, all eyes are now on how the populations will react to President Donald Trump making it clear that immigration enforcement operations will proceed at heightened levels.Like Blaze News?
