A violent Oct. 14 brawl at the Department of the Interior headquarters building in the nation’s capital that saw multiple police officers injured and 55 protesters arrested was organized by an anti-fossil fuel group funded by a left-wing dark money group, according to a report made public on Oct. 25.
“Protestors attempted to tear down barricades at the White House, vandalized a statue of Andrew Jackson scrawling ‘Expect Us’ on it in red paint, assaulted police officers while blocking traffic near Capitol Hill, sprayed fake oil on the U.S. Chamber of Commerce building, and attempted to storm the Interior Department,” according to the report by Parker Thayer, a research analyst for the Capital Research Center (CRC).
