Ashli Babbitt’s Mother Arrested for Peaceful Protest While Her Murderer is Still Free

by | Jan 8, 2023

The mother of Ashli Babbitt, who was fatally shot while participating in the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, was arrested Friday afternoon for blocking traffic near the Capitol.

Micki Witthoeft, 58, is charged with blocking and obstructing roadways, U.S. Capitol Police said.

On January 6th, 2021 Democrats had the chance to finally stand with the 99% against the rich and powerful. Instead of doing so, they chose to vilify the working class and side with the corporate press, CIA, FBI, NSA, blue check Twitter, and all the other powers that be.

In Canada, they had the chance to side with the Convoy Protestors (truckers) against the regime of Justin Trudeau, they again chose to side against the working class.

Little to no coverage has been given to Ashli Babbitt, the unarmed peaceful protestor who was murdered by Michael Byrd. It’s okay for government’s to commit mass murder under the guise of “war and foreign policy”, but do not dare enter the Capitol without a permission slip.

If “we are the government” as Democrats always love to say, wasn’t Babbitt simply going into her own building? Or could it be that “we are the government” is a scam used to get people to comply with immoral laws?

Let’s put their theory to the test.

I hereby call for the arrest of Michael Byrd for the crime of murder in the second degree.

Instead of playing the game of rich vs. poor, or black vs. white, or Russia vs. America, or men vs. women, let’s divide people based on whether or not they are peaceful or violent.
