The clown show that is the Democrat Party put on an embarrassing performance at the Department of Education building in Washington, D.C.
In a meltdown over spending cuts by Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), and with President Donald Trump weighing potentially dismantling the Department of Education, Democrats took their protest right up to the door on Friday.
Reports showed Rep. Maxine Waters and others harassing security at the building where they were refused entrance.
BREAKING: Democrats are trying to storm the Department of Education! Maxine Waters and Maxwell Frost are trying to force their way past the guards.
At one point, Waters asks the guards if they have firearms and if they will shoot them.

“What are they afraid of? They know that we’re here,” the California Democrat raged, accusing security of blocking the group “for no good reason.”
“I want you to see this [security guard] right here who is a federal employee he told us … we pay him, we raise money to make sure that we have a Department of Education, and everybody that’s at the Department of Education is here because we pay for them to be here,” Waters said to the news cameras. “He’s standing here today blocking the door and he can’t give us a good reason why he’s blocking this door.”

Rep. Maxwell Frost also confronted the security guard who stayed silent as he did his job.
“Were you told, are you making this decision to stand in front of this door on your own behalf? On behalf of the Department of Education, were you to come out here and block members of Congress from complying with us?” the Florida Democrat demanded. “Were you told to stand here or did you decide to stand here and block members of Congress from entering the Department of Education?”
Another congresswoman declared, “I think it should be clear to parents in the United States, if you want to advocate on behalf of your children, you are not allowed to come into this building where you pay taxes.”
“Parents who have children who are disabled, access is being blocked. You voted for members of Congress to advocate on behalf of your children… and we’re not allowed in the building to talk to them. We are not allowed to advocate on behalf of America’s children. America, we have a problem,” she ranted.
The disrespectful behavior did not earn the raging Democrats much support on social media.
So when they do it, it’s ‘activism,’ but if anyone else does, it’s ‘insurrection’?

She doesn’t work at the DOE she has no reason to be there. So they have no reason to let her in. She is showing how corrupt she is by trying to strong arm her way in.
