A very sad day for Democracy… will they be thrown in prison for years on end for this?

DC Draino made a very good point:

Leftists activists are currently insurrecting Speaker McCarthy’s office

Given that a J6 defendant got 22 years when they weren’t even in DC on J6, I can only assume these “domestic extremists” will be receiving at least 30 years in prison

Here’s what Fox News reported:

Protesters stormed House Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s Congressional office on Tuesday, demanding that he and other House Republicans re-up funding for an AIDs relief program.

Protesters with Housing Works pressed their way into McCarthy’s office and refused to move until Capitol Hill Police arrived and arrested them. The group was demanding a 5-year reauthorization of the PEPFAR global AIDs relief program, which they say has saved “25 million lives.”

Images of the incident show protesters sitting on the floor of McCarthy’s office and linking arms as bemused staffers remain at their posts.

“We’re proud to use nonviolent civil disobedience, among other tactics, to demand that our government take action to end AIDS,” the group wrote on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter.

I’m assuming these people will be locked up immediately, put on no fly lists, will have their houses raided and will be sentenced to years in prison, right?

Per The Hill:

A group of activists staged a sit-in in Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s (R-Calif.) personal office over funding for HIV and AIDS programs Monday, ending with several demonstrators being arrested by Capitol Police.

The demonstration, organized by the groups Housing Works and Health GAP, centered on domestic funding for HIV and AIDS programs as well as reauthorization of the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief, or PEPFAR, a global program.

PEPFAR authorization expires on Sept. 30 and has gotten tied into abortion politics as some Republicans worry that funds from the program have indirectly supported abortions, a charge Biden administration officials have dismissed, The Washington Post reported.

“PEPFAR has saved millions of lives. It is criminal for some members of Congress to treat it as a political football,” Charles King, CEO of Housing Works, said in a statement. “AIDS isn’t over until it’s over for everyone. PEPFAR has been essential to helping people in developing countries flatten the curve of HIV transmission. The United States has committed to the international goal of ending AIDS by 2030, and we cannot do that if PEPFAR is threatened.”
