Ben Cohen Of Ben & Jerry’s Displays His Brand’s Trademark Insanity

Ben Cohen, a founder of the famously progressive Ben & Jerry’s ice cream brand, was arrested Wednesday during a Senate hearing at which Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was testifying.
Cohen was among a group of seven people who disrupted a hearing for the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions, screaming 'RFK kills people with hate’ after which they were arrested by United States Capitol Police, per a report from Fox News.
“Members of the audience are reminded disruptions will not be permitted while the committee conducts its business. Capitol Police are asked to remove the individuals from the hearing room,” Louisiana Republican Sen. Bill Cassidy said as the protesters were removed.
The charges faced by the protesters include crowding, obstructing, and incommoding, according to a report from Axios.
Some of the protesters were also hit with charges of resisting arrest or assaulting a police officer.
Ben & Jerry’s has a reputation of supporting left-wing causes.
The ice cream brand, which was sold to Unilever in 2000, previously ended the sale of its products in the West Bank, asserting that the territory belonged to Palestinians.

Tom & Jerry’s Ice Cream Pushed Commie Ideology YEARS Ago

But I didn’t think they would ever come out and admit it without reservation. I’m proud that we discovered that early and we’ve never bought so much as a pint.

If you're not boycotting them, you're part of the problem.

 North Carolina Divests From Unilever, Parent Company Of Jew Hating Ben & Jerry’s.

If Unilever wants to let one of their companies run wild with Israel and Jew hatred while also supporting a State Department designated terrorist group, there are consequences.
North Carolina latest to scoop retirement funds from Ben & Jerry’s over ice cream brand’s Israel boycott.
North Carolina closed out last year by becoming the most recent state to divest its public employee pension from the corporate parent of Ben & Jerry’s over the ice cream company’s boycott of Israel.
North Carolina is a swing state in politics. Other states to pull retirement funds over Ben & Jerry’s boycott of Israel span the traditional political boundaries and include Arizona, Florida, Illinois, New Jersey, New York and Texas.
“We are where we are. We don’t pick which laws to apply and who to apply them to,” North Carolina State Treasurer Dale Folwell, a Republican, told FOX Business in an interview this week. “I wish I never heard of this subject and wish we didn’t have to do what we had to do.”
Folwell announced last month that the North Carolina Retirement Systems — which provides retirement benefits for more than 1 million members, including teachers, firefighters, police officers and government employees — is withdrawing $40 million from Ben & Jerry’s and affiliates. This includes its parent company, Unilever PLC, a U.K.-based company. (snip)
In the face of the BDS movement — short for boycott, divest and sanction — the North Carolina legislature passed a law in 2017 that prohibits “the North Carolina Retirement Systems or the Department of State Treasurer from investing in any company engaged in a boycott of Israel.”
Ben & Jerry’s is welcome to their free speech, North Carolina will not stop it, but, that doesn’t mean NC or the other states have to keep their money in a the company or their parent when they are taking the side of a terrorist organization and all the supporters in Gaza, people so dangerous and extremist that no Arab nation will take them in.
