White House Forced to 'Relocate' Staffers During Pro-Hamas Attack

The White House was forced to relocate staffers, the Secret Service said, after pro-Palestine demonstrators threw objects at law enforcement and damaged security fencing around the presidential residence.

A video from Saturday evening shows demonstrators chanting “All walls will fall!” as they shake the White House security fence while standing in Lafayette Park. Another video shows law enforcement holding the fence as demonstrators chant, “F**k Joe Biden!”

Other videos show protestors throwing projectiles over the White House security fence and chanting phrases such as “Free Palestine” and “Yemen, Yemen, make us proud. Turn this invasion around,” referring to how Houthi rebels have been attacking ships in the Red Sea since Oct. 7, 2023, and a U.S. coalition responded last week with military force.

A massive crowd assaulted a seat of federal power in an attempt to impose its political will on the US government. So how is this not a federal crime worthy of years of investigation, prosecution, and prison time for its leaders? — Ed]
