U.S. Capitol police arrested a male Democrat operative after he assaulted a female Trump administration official on Thursday.

Michael Bastasch of the Daily Caller reported:

U.S. Capitol Police have arrested a male Democratic operative for assaulting a female Interior Department communications official following a House budget hearing Thursday.

The assault happened after Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke finished testifying on the department’s 2019 budget proposal before the House Committee on Natural Resources. The suspect identified himself as a reporter with American Bridge and pushed a female Interior Department communications official to the floor, chasing after Zinke, The Daily Caller News Foundation learned.

Interior communications director Laura Rigas was “greatly alarmed and extremely irate that a female senior member of my DOI Communications team was physically assaulted today by a Democrat staffer from the PAC American Bridge,” she told Politico.

Interior officials filed a police report, The Daily Caller News Foundation has learned, but it has not yet been processed, police said. It will be made public in seven to 10 days once processed. American Bridge did not respond to TheDCNF’s request for comment.

American Bridge was founded by none other than David Brock, a friend of billionaire George Soros.

Soros donated over $2 million to American Bridge in 2016, according to Center for Responsive Politics.

Capitol Police took the violent Democrat operative into custody on Thursday; he was transported to USCP Headquarters for processing , Politico reported.

Here is yet more proof that Democrats are unhinged and resort to violence rather than debating issues civilly.
