EXCLUSIVE: DENIED: Code Pink thrown out and barred from open Senate intel hearing

• Sen. Tom Cotton threw anti-American Code Pink protesters out of the SSCI hearing where President Donald Trump’s national security A-team appeared before the Senate to deliver its assessment of threats to America.

• Code Pink disrupted the hearing, as it has done to GOP-led hearings in the past, but this time it was met with the heavy end of Cotton’s gavel for doing so.

• For years, Code Pink’s detractors have highlighted reports connecting the left-wing, anti-American organization to funding from sources tied to the Chinese Communist Party.

• It wasn’t only Code Pink protesters who embarrassed themselves during the hearing — Senate Democrats joined the leftist activist group in its dumpster fire endeavor. Sen. Mark Warner (D., Va.) shrieked at Tulsi Gabbard, the Director of National Intelligence (DNI), in a manner that had some observers wondering if sexism played a role.

Only once in a blue moon does the Permanent Select Senate Committee on Intelligence (SSCI) hold an open hearing. Much rarer is when people are thrown out of said hearing, which the Washington Reporter can exclusively confirm happened due to the leadership of Sen. Tom Cotton (R., Ark.).

Cotton threw anti-American Code Pink protesters out of the SSCI hearing where President Donald Trump’s national security A-team appeared before the Senate to deliver its assessment of threats to America. Trump’s team will appear before the House tomorrow.

Code Pink disrupted the hearing, as it has done to GOP-led hearings in the past, but this time it was met with the heavy end of Cotton’s gavel for doing so.

Cotton threw several protesters out of the room and barred the rest from entering, with Capitol Police physically removing six protesters, a Senate leadership aide told the Reporter. The aide added that “everyone hates the Code Pink freaks so it was refreshing to see a Senator proactively expel them instead of letting them screech and disrupt the hearing.”

For years, Code Pink’s detractors have highlighted reports connected the left-wing, anti-American organization to funding from sources tied to the Chinese Communist Party.

It wasn’t only Code Pink protesters who embarrassed themselves during the hearing — Senate Democrats joined the leftist activist group in its dumpster fire endeavor. Sen. Mark Warner (D., Va.) shrieked at Tulsi Gabbard, the Director of National Intelligence (DNI), in a manner that had some observers wondering if sexism played a role.

“If a Republican senator spoke to a Dem cabinet member the way Mark Warner is speaking to Dir. Gabbard, they would be admonished,” Alexa Henning, Gabbard’s Deputy Chief of Staff, remarked. “Democrats are continuing their rude behavior and just looking to score political points rather than any substantive national security discussions.”

The hearing came at a crucial time for President Donald Trump’s national security team, which is under fire for a ludicrous hit piece in The Atlantic. The Reporter previously published an editorial pushing back on the vociferous piece and its performance today won plaudits from many in Trump’s orbit.

“Despite the distractions from Senate Democrats and discredited journalists, President Trump’s national security team of Tulsi Gabbard, John Ratcliffe, and Mike Waltz, showed that they’re the A Team we need to Make America Safe Again after four years of failure from Joe Biden,” one Trumpworld source noted to the Reporter.

“Code Pink is a bunch of unemployed freaks. Good job on Tom Cotton for booting them out of Congress so they can get a real job under the booming Trump economy,” the source said.

The New York Times extensively covered how a Code Pink co-founder married a tech mogul and socialist who “works closely with the Chinese government media machine and is financing its propaganda worldwide.”
