Fox News’ Jeanine Pirro Tries to Slam Democrats with Delusional Rant About…Cow Farts

During her opening statement on Saturday night, Fox News’ Judge Jeanine Pirro lambasted Democrats for their concern about cow farts. Yes, you read that correctly.

After claiming the Democrats’ Green New Deal — as proposed by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez — included pulling planes from the air, Pirro moved on to fart talk.

“My favorite part [of the Green New Deal] is where they seek a net zero greenhouse gas in 10 years,” Pirro said. “So you may ask why net zero as opposed to zero? The reason is that they are not sure they will be able to get rid of bovine flatulence.”

“I can’t believe I said that,” she added.

She continued on, breaking into an occasional chortle: “Aka, cows farting. These emissions from cows are of concern to the left because the bovine emissions have an environmental impact and the methane gas produced by the bovine flatulence contributes to the greenhouse gases that contributes to global warming.”

Then after laughing, she quipped, “Need I say more?”

Earlier on Saturday, Donald Trump also tweeted out his thoughts about how the Dem’s Green New Deal will try to eliminate “all Planes, Cars, Cows, Oil, Gas & the Military.”

A summary of the deal released last week says it sets “a goal to get to net-zero, rather than zero emissions, in 10 years because we aren’t sure that we’ll be able to fully get rid of farting cows and airplanes that fast.”

But despite Pirro’s attempt to mock the plan, a 2011 United Nations report found that methane produced by livestock is responsible for nearly 40 percent of greenhouse gasses emitted by the agricultural industry.

The plan’s economic focus on job creation through accelerating transitions of to clean energy echoes President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s Great Depression-era New Deal enacted in the 1930s.
