When is an insurrection not an insurrection? When its a far left communist insurrection, of course. Two hundred terrorist supporters attempted to blockade the DNC building near Capitol Hill. They attacked police but miraculously police only arrested one person who slammed a policewoman into a wall and punching her. All told, six police officers were injured. Do you think the FBI will track down the violent rioters in early morning raids by 30 heavily armed agents? Come on, get real.

Police had to take it up a notch to clear the violent protesters away from the doors of the DNC Headquarters in order 6to free Democrats from inside the building. Originally, the rioters tried to enter the DNC building but they didn’t have the Capitol Police holding the door open for them. DCCC leadership reception in progress inside @nbcwashington”

Two Democrat Congressman posted that they were evacuated by Capitol Police, Rep. Brad Sherman (D-CA) and Rep. Sean Casten (D-IL).
Brad Sherman, “Was just evacuated from the #DNC after pro-terrorist, anti-#Israel protestors grew violent, pepper spraying police officers and attempting to break into the building. Thankful to the police officers who stopped them and for helping me and my colleagues get out safely. (1/2)…Apparently, these pro-#Hamas demonstrators want #Republicans to prevail in the next Congressional election. (2/2)”
Sean Casten:
“I was just evacuated from the @dccc office after the building was surrounded by protestors who had blocked all modes of ingress and egress. Grateful to Capitol Police for getting all members and staff out safely. To the protestors: PLEASE don’t do something irresponsible /1…You have the Constitutional right to peaceably assemble and protest. But blocking all entries to a building with multiple members of Congress in it, protected by Capitol Police officers who have lived through January 6 is putting you and other innocent people at risk. /2…We were rescued by armed officers who did not know the protestors’ intent; they knew only that Members of Congress were inside, could not leave and that protestors would not let police through. Forcing police to guess intent is irresponsible and dangerous. /3…I am grateful for the USCP’s professionalism and that all were safely evacuated. I’m also keenly aware that it could have been much worse. Americans have a right to assemble and protest. But PLEASE do so at a safe distance and respect local police orders.”
Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) posted she is trapped in the Longworth House Office building with her husband and baby, “My husband, newborn, and I are in my office in the Capitol — which just went into lockdown because of these uncontrolled protestors. I bet you won’t hear a word about this from the media.”
Capitol Police report six officers injured, one arrest made, “The large group of illegal protesters near Canal Street and Ivy Street, SE, have cleared out, but USCP officers will stay on scene out of an abundance of caution…Tonight 6 officers were treated for injuries – ranging from minor cuts to being pepper sprayed to being punched. One person has been arrested for assault on an officer. We appreciate our officers who kept these illegal & violent protesters back & protected everyone in the area.”
