On October 4, 2018, taking over the Capitol was just another form of protest.<br \/>\nOn that date, The Hill reported, \u201cMore than 300 people were taken into custody by police on Capitol Hill after descending on a pair of Senate office buildings Thursday afternoon to protest the confirmation process of Brett Kavanaugh, President Trump\u2019s Supreme Court nominee.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">\u201cThe vast majority of the arrests, 293, were a result of protests in the Hart Senate Office Building, where protesters crowded in the atrium. Loud chants could be heard throughout the building, which is structured so the hallways of each floor open up and look out onto the first floor.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">\u201cThose arrested in Hart were charged with crowding, obstructing or incommoding, according to Capitol Police. Another nine people were arrested on the fourth floor of Dirksen Senate Office Building and charged with unlawful demonstrations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">CNN also called the crowd protesters.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">On Wednesday, CNN called pro-Trump protesters who stormed the Capitol \u201crioters.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">NPR called them \u201cfar-right insurrectionists.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">In 2018, NPR called the anti-Kavanaugh crowd \u201cdemonstrators\u201d and titled its coverage of the storming: \u201d \u2018We Believe Survivors\u2019: Demonstrators Throng Capitol Hill To Protest Kavanaugh\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read the rest <a href=\"https:\/\/donsurber.blogspot.com\/2021\/01\/storming-capitol-was-cool-in-2018.html\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thegatewaypundit.com\/2021\/01\/flashback-storming-us-capitol-ok-2018-democrats-communists\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Then the media referred to them as \u201cprotesters\u201d.
