Biden on hecklers: ‘This is not a Trump rally. Let ’em holler’ – By Caroline Vakil (The Hill) / July 24 2021
During a stump rally for gubernatorial nominee and former Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe (D), President Biden sought to brush off several hecklers who interrupted his speech, saying, “This is not a Trump rally. Let ’em holler. No one’s paying attention.”
According to a Dallas News reporter covering the event, the hecklers seemed to be shouting, “Stop Line 3!” — a reference to Enbridge’s controversial pipeline project in Minnesota, which indigenous groups argue could have ramifications for the area’s water and land.
In June, the Biden administration signaled its support of the Trump administration’s approval of the pipeline.
As the hecklers shouted, another group of attendees yelled, “We love you, Joe!”
