Maybe they were afraid that MAGA would march on the WH after that “rip rousing” speech by Biden, you know the one where he threatened to nuke us.
I heard it was so boring that peeps are asking to just bypass Biden and read next speech off the teleprompter.
I saw Biden gave a speech at the John Warner memorial but didn’t pay attention to it; that speech??
Found an article about the DC protest; apparently Reverend Jackson is still trying to be relevant.
Progressive clerics Rev. Jesse Jackson and Bishop William Barber II were among more than 20 people arrested during a Poor People’s Campaign demonstration at the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday, according to police.
The campaign announced that they’d be holding the demonstration under the banner “A National Call for Moral Revival” this week.
The mission of the demonstration was to protest Senators Joe Manchin and Mitch McConnell for their failure to vote for the $15 minimum wage, and also their opposition to the For the People Act.

Somehow, Jesse Jackson and ‘moral revival’ aren’t two subjects that go together in my mind...
