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.'

It’s an INSURECTION!

Arrest them all and hold them in jail without bond until they can be tried next year.

The Capitol Stasi arrested a committee chair? This would be a real firestorm if they had arrested the table.

Perhaps this is a “rogue” Stasi faction, as I am thinking that Grandma Nan might not like this turn of events.

These are political activists. They intend to be put in jail. It gives them street cred with the Socialists. Therefore, they have to do things guaranteed to achieve their ends. So far, it’s been a lose/lose for law enforcement. It will continue to be so until the tactic fails to work. Given the money and marketing mojo behind it, it will almost always work. There is no counter movement money or marketing. Violence pays. The violent people more often than not get what they want.

To counter this, it would take a few conservative billionaires hiring some genius marketing people and a few powerful access channels. The best would be Google and Facebook...but we know where they side.

Hope that they are all held in solitary confinement for months waiting for a hearing.
