Biden, Harris take heat for claiming double standard by cops in US Capitol siege
Biden and Harris said Thursday that police would have been more aggressive in quelling Wednesday’s unrest had it been a Black Lives Matter protest instead of supporters of President Trump.
Biden went so far as to call it “totally unacceptable” that DC cops used kid gloves, allowing the rioters to breach the Capitol.
“This is complete nonsense,” conservative writer AG Hamilton said of the claim on Twitter.
“It’s gaslighting that requires ignoring what we actually witnessed on a nightly basis last summer.,” Hamilton said, referring to widespread anti-police protests last year.
Podcast host Allie Beth Stuckey tweeted that the comments by the incoming president and vice president only further inflame racial tensions in the country.
She took particular aim at Harris.
“They really just know how to make everything so much worse,” Stuckey told the network. “This is untrue, divisive race-baiting, and absolutely no one in the media will call her out for this lie.”
“This is the same woman who tweeted out a BAIL FUND for rioters who burned down Minneapolis,” she added.
