   Democratic Congresswoman Joyce Beatty was arrested in the Hart Senate   
   Office Building Thursday after she led a group of protesters into the   
   building.   
      
   A photo posted by Politico reporter Nicholas Wu shows Beatty and others   
   being zip-tied by Capitol Police.   
      
   Beatty, who is the head of the Congressional Black Caucus, was seen   
   moments earlier walking into the building chanting "end the filibuster."   
      
   Around the same time of the arrest, Beatty posted on her Twitter account   
   that she was marching to the Senate to protect voting rights for Black   
   women.   
      
   "Black women are demanding OUR right to vote! We’re marching to the Senate   
   to send a strong message. #OurPowerOurMessage" Beatty tweeted.   
      
   Beatty’s Twitter account also posted a photo of the arrest taking place   
   with the caption, "Let the people fight for justice."   
      
   "This afternoon, nine people were arrested for demonstrating in a   
   prohibited area on Capitol Grounds," the Capitol Police said in a   
   statement to Fox News. "At approximately 3:30pm, the United States Capitol   
   Police responded to the Atrium in the Hart Senate Office Building for   
   reports of illegal demonstration activity. After officers arrived on the   
   scene, they warned the demonstrators three times to stop. Those who   
   refused were arrested for D.C. Code §22-1307. Two males and seven females   
   were transported to USCP Headquarters for processing."

   After so much complaining, will the democrats set up a commission to   
   investigate members of their own party?  This reminds me that five things   
   will help get the country where it needs to be and ensure that actual   
   American citizens are duly represented are Voter ID and a Constitutional   
   amendment for term limits on Congress - both the House and Senate. There   
   should be NO MORE career politicians, and no more pensions for   
   politicians. A politician should be a finite service to the country, not a   
   career. Also, biden/harris should be removed from office, and the   
   immigration laws on the books need to be enforced. That is what America   
   needs now.

   hope they enjoyed their experience of being booked before release.  Their   
   constant victim hood is growing old.  They make $175,000 a year and they   
   are victims.  Retire and live in the real world where most of us live.
