Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) said that “professional agitators” were cleared by police before President Donald Trump’s visit to the St. John’s Episcopal Church near the White House amid protests about the death of George Floyd.
“They knew the street needed to be cleared before 7 pm curfew,” Rubio wrote on Twitter. “But they deliberately stayed to trigger police action & get the story they wanted, that ‘police attacked peaceful protesters.’”
