Police arrested Congressional Black Caucus chair Joyce Beatty on Thursday afternoon after she led pro-voting rights protesters into a Senate office building.

Officers moved in as Beatty, 71, and a handful of other activists, including Women's March co-founders Linda Sarsour and Tamika Mallory, chanted, 'Fight for justice,' and, 'End the filibuster.'

Capitol Police later said they had arrested nine people for 'demonstrating in a prohibited area on Capitol Grounds.'

Watch Joyce Beatty's filibuster rhetoric change (along with many other Democrats) if the Republicans take back control of Congress in 22, which is what I believe will happen.

 

[BreatheUT]

Anyone hanging out with Sarsour is a radical nutcase.

 

[utvolpj]

Why would they arrest peaceful protesters?

 

[Jxn Vol]

Put them away like the 1/6 folks?

It's a Stunt. It's about money. They perform stunts to fund raise.

Look at the terror threat coming from those "white supremacist" being arrested for shouting fight for justice. Those poor poor white supremacist causing a ruckus of not having justice in their life. This is the greatest threat America has than any other since the Civil War. These "white supremacist" hollering & screaming that they have no voting rights & no justice in america in the 21st century. So ignorant.

Ouch! Gotta love it when dems complain about what another group does and then get bit the next time they do it. 1/6, baby.

I don't agree with theses arrests at all. At least the capitol police is showing consistency, that's more than I can say for those that were against the protests on 1/6.

 

[volfanhill]

Anyone got an example of someone from 1/6 who was over charged? I haven't seen it.

Does the government recanting and dismissing all charges count as overcharging?

Federal prosecutors want to dismiss charges against a man they said breached the Capitol on January 6

Nothing because her punishment was a death sentence.
