Tuesday several Democrat lawmakers were arrested outside the Supreme Court, including Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
All reports indicate that Cortez was arrested though video of her being extorted out of the protest shows the congresswoman waving to the crowd with no handcuffs on.
As she was filmed, Cortez did however hold her hands behind her back seemingly in an attempt to make it appear that her wrists were bound when in fact they were not.
“Squad” member Ilhan Omar was also arrested at the protest. She tweeted “Today I was arrested while participating in a civil disobedience action with my fellow Members of Congress outside the Supreme Court. – I will continue to do everything in my power to raise the alarm about the assault on our reproductive rights!”
Oddly enough no such right to abortion actually exists in the constitution, which is exactly why the Supreme Court overturned the bogus Roe V. Wade ruling from 1973.
Yahoo News reported Reps. Barbara Lee of California, Rashida Tlaib of Michigan, Cori Bush of Missouri, Jan Schakowsky of Illinois, Jackie Speier of California, Carolyn Maloney of New York, Veronica Escobar of Texas, Sara Jacobs of California, Alma Adams of North Carolina, Bonnie Watson of New Jersey, Nydia Velazquez of New York, Madeleine Dean of Pennsylvania and Andy Levin of Michigan were among the other legislators arrested.
The involved congress members acted unlawfully, seeming to believe that they were above the law. Even after being given 3 warnings they continued to violate the law and were thus arrested for their actions.
