On Tuesday, the U.S. Capitol Police arrested 130 people for illegally protesting at the Cannon House Office Building in yet another pro-Hamas demonstration. Such arrests come less than three months after pro-Hamas agitators were similarly illegally protesting at Cannon, with arrests being made at the time there as well.
The House called off votes due to winter storms in Washington, D.C., though the Senate is still operating so as to avert a government shutdown. Nevertheless, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) was able to share footage of the illegal activity that took place earlier on Tuesday.
