Climate activists successfully disrupted a recent episode of The View featuring Senator Ted Cruz, prompting a temporary halt in the broadcast. A woman, later identified as an Extinction Rebellion NYC member, violated audience rules by shouting, “Fk you, Ted Cruz, you climate-denying piece of st.” Her outburst led ABC to take an unplanned commercial break. Cruz, a Texas conservative, faced criticism for his climate change denial, impacting the state’s struggling farmers. The activist questioned Cruz’s concern for Texas farmers, who have suffered job losses and property damage due to worsening weather conditions. The incident was part of a larger “Occupy Park Avenue” climate change protest by Extinction Rebellion NYC. In a separate video, additional activists interrupted Cruz, drawing attention from host Whoopi Goldberg, who urged them to let the show proceed. ABC later released a statement acknowledging the disruptions and confirming the removal of the protesters. During the episode, Cruz also faced questions about his continued support for Donald Trump despite past personal attacks.
