Yesterday

Capitol Police were attempting to remove an unhinged protestor from the Armed Services hearing. He was fighting back. I decided to help out and deescalate the situation.

This gentleman came to the Capitol looking for a confrontation, and he got one. I hope he gets the help he needs without causing further violence.

It sure didn't look like he was trying to deescalate. And what an absolute ghoul to break the hand of a marine and then taunt him.
