University of Idaho ‘Walk Out Against Trump’ Planned for Tomorrow by Climate Activists

By • November 7, 2024

Climate activists with the Sunrise Movement (Palouse group) are planning a walkout at the University of Idaho tomorrow in protest of President-elect Donald Trump.

According to Decision Desk HQ, Trump became President-elect late Tuesday evening and has now secured 312 electoral votes to Kamala Harris’s 226. Trump is also expected to win the popular vote.

Sunrise Movement posted an image of flyers on their Instagram account encouraging students to protest in front of the U of I library tomorrow at 1:15 p.m. PT. The flyers say they “won’t stand for fascism.”

Sunrise Movement is a national climate organization that says its objective is:

“Together, we will force the government to end the era of fossil fuel elites, invest in Black, brown and working class communities, and create millions of good union jobs. We’re on a mission to put everyday people back in charge and build a world that works for all of us, now and for generations to come.”

A post on the Palouse chapter’s Instagram account says,

“Tired of our broken political system? Worried about the lives and rights of our communities and families? Thinking about how our climate and ecology cannot take another climate criminal president? Walk out of class tomorrow and show up for our futures. The Democratic Party has failed us. We have 6 years to fight the climate crisis and our lives, communities, and futures are at stake – we must walk out tomorrow and organize for a just and livable future on the Palouse.

Bring friends, neighbors and signs!!!! We will have sign-building starting at 12:45 outside the library.”

Trump has questioned how much man is harming or not harming the environment and says that change is natural. Before becoming president in 2016, Trump said the climate activists created a hoax to make money. In 2014, on X (then Twitter), Trump said,

“The weather has been so cold for so long that the global warming HOAXSTERS were forced to change the name to climate change to keep $ flow!”
