Congress Demands Criminal Charges Against Erdogan’s Bodyguards After Violent Beating Of Protesters In Washington, D.C.

Congress is demanding that someone be held to account after Tuesday’s violent altercation between Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s bodyguards and protesters exercising their First Amendment right. The facts of the case are clear.

Video footage shows men in black suits, identified as members of Erdogan’s security detail, and Turkish embassy staff, kicking, punching, and pummeling Kurdish protesters outside the residence compound of the Turkish Embassy. Casually putting their earpieces back in place, the Turkish security forces then retreat back to the compound where diplomatic immunity renders them virtually invincible.

I have read that Spicer refused comment on this in yesterday's briefing.

Huge  :hands: to Trump if he deals with them harshly (i.e., appropriately ).  We can't let foreign thugs assault and bloody American citizens like that without response.

Let's see whether Trump will rise to the challenge.

Screw congress.  We need more beatdowns like we saw the other day in front of the embassy.  Simple effective crowd control.
