Endless coverage of January 6th... yet the media rarely covers recent incidents of left-wing protestors violently taking over Federal Buildings. One extreme is just as bad as the other. Well both extremes have one thing in common -- they proudly record their crimes and post them on social media making it much easier to prosecute them. 'Reminiscent of Jan. 6': Violent protesters arrested after storming Interior Department, injuring officers https://www.foxnews.com/politics/re...torming-interior-department-injuring-officers Dozens of activists protesting fossil fuel projects were arrested Thursday in Washington, D.C., after they staged a sit-in at the Interior Department, a move that led to "multiple injuries" and at least one law enforcement officer being transported to a hospital. Demanding that President Biden declare climate change an emergency, People vs. Fossil Fuels, the group responsible for the protest, organized a week-long series of demonstrations against the president as he approves different fossil fuel projects. Following the protest, Interior Department spokeswoman Melissa Schwartz released a statement through a series of tweets. "Early this afternoon, a group of protestors entered the Stewart Lee Udall Main Interior Building," Schwartz wrote. "Federal Protective Service personnel responded to the area to mitigate the situation. Multiple injuries were sustained by security personnel, and one officer has been transported to a nearby hospital. Medics representing both the Department and the protesters were present." Schwartz also noted that Interior Secretary Deb Haaland was not in Washington during the protest and insisted that leadership at the department "believes strongly in respecting and upholding the right to free speech and peaceful protest." According to video footage from The Washington Post's Ellie Silverman, activists could be seen climbing up doors and pushing officers back as they tried to force their way into the Interior Department. Andy Ngô, a conservative journalist who often covers events related to Antifa, shared one of Silverman's videos. He described the scene at the federal building as "reminiscent of Jan. 6," noting that officers were forced to draw their stun guns as "extreme environmentalist protesters" attempted to make their way inside. Event organizers alleged that "police tased and hit multiple people with batons" and "55 people were arrested and taken away to DC Metro police stations." "Police acted aggressively with the water protectors and indigenous leaders, tasing at least two people and hitting others with batons," the group claimed. "An independent indigenous media person was assaulted by the police and had his equipment broken." Fox News reached out to the Federal Protective Service (FPS) and received the following statement: "Yesterday, officers from the Department of Homeland Security’s Federal Protective Service (FPS) responded to a demonstration at the Stewart L. Udall Building. FPS is committed to the safety of demonstrators participating in lawful protests and fully supports the peaceful expression of all people. FPS will continue to pursue our mission of ensuring the safety and security of federal employees and facilities, consistent with the law." In the statement, FPS also offered appreciation for U.S. Park Police and Washington Metropolitan Police Department who assisted in efforts "to detain, prosecute or take action against anyone who caused harm and attempted to disrupt the business of the federal government yesterday."
The liberals already did it but rather than just one day and a few hundred, the liberals and thugs stretched it out for 3-4 months. They did try and storm government buildings but were stopped or else those animals would have. They were foaming at the mouth, look what they did to Target, Walmart, and all those other business’s. Nothing says justice like “ Im gettin me some free shit “.
one is an attempt at overthrowing democracy, another is a sit-in in protest that got rowdy. Really OP? Is your scalp itching so much for that redhat?
“ got rowdy”… Thats abusurd. It was violent and greed driven from day one. They are waiting for the next excuse to riot, destroy, and steal. What a way to live !!! They never disappoint.
NY_Hood approves this message GWB. Fox wrote that quite cleverly as usual so that it was not quite obvious it was a protest at the department of Indian Affairs by Indigenous leaders.

Despite a proclamation declaring October 11th Indigenous Peoples’ Day, Indigenous leaders were met with police violence and lrad was used on Indigenous matriarchs and youth being arrested on the White House fence. demanding Biden Stop Line 3 climbing the flagpole outside the Army Corp North Atlantic Division Office, replacing it with a “Free Informed and Prior Consent” flag that read “Consultation is not Consent.” The Indigenous leaders issued this statement: We will no longer allow the U.S. government to separate us from our relationship to the sacred knowledge of Mother Earth and all who depend on her. Her songs have no end, so we must continue the unfinished work of our ancestors who have walked on before us. Because of colonization, our mission has been passed on generation after generation- to protect the sacred. Just as those who walked before us, we continue their song and rise for our youth, for the land, and for the water. Politicians do not take care of us. Presidents will break their promises but Mother Earth has always given us what we need to thrive. We will not back down until our natural balance is restored. For the land, for our waters, for our future-- we must fight now so our young will thrive. You can arrest us, tear gas us, poison us but there will always be more hearts to continue the song until we are all free. Another world is possible. Our demands for the President of the United States are: - Abolition of the Bureau of Indian Affairs. - Restoration of 110 million acres (450,000 km2) of land taken away from Native nations. - Bring home our children buried at your residential schools. - Restoration of treaty-making (ended by Congress in 1871). - Establishment of a treaty commission to make new treaties (with sovereign Native nations). - Land back. - Water back. - Honor the treaties. - No new leases for oil and gas or extractive industry on public lands. - Free, prior, and informed consent. - Reclaim and affirm health, housing, employment, economic development, and education for all Indigenous people. - Restoration of terminated rights. - Repeal of state jurisdiction on Native nations. - Federal protection for offenses against Indians.

You can bet Washington is rushing to do that, give the redskins a mic on capitol hill. Right wing news will be dying to cover their grievances. No sorry, they will clickbait it hiding the indigenous protestors reality but saying "leftists" using fallacious comparison with Jan 6th as Greg did.
Edit: First in their list was: "Abolition of the Bureau of Indian Affairs." almost as if the building they were staging a sit down protest in was not seen as looking out for their interests?
