Activist arrested spray-painting Midtown Apple store in protest over climate change and Trump

  • On Sunday, Extinction Rebellion protested at New York's Fifth Avenue Apple Store, spray-painting slogans and chanting against CEO Tim Cook and President Trump.
  • The protest followed Tim Cook's 2025 donation to Trump's inauguration and accusations that tech CEOs betrayed climate commitments while balancing business interests.
  • Activists called for a boycott, referenced Apple's climate hypocrisy, and denounced the Trump administration for rolling back environmental protections amid ongoing Texas floods.
  • Police officers ejected protesters and arrested one man who spray-painted phrases like "Boycott" and "Tim + Trump = Toxic" on the store's glass exterior.
  • The event highlights growing tensions as Big Tech faces criticism for expanding AI-related emissions and aligning with a government accused of undermining climate progress.
