Rev. Dr. William J. Barber II full speech at Capitol ahead of December 13 direct action
"Wherever there's been a long train of abuse and usurpations by despotism, the people have a right and a duty to throw off that form of government and to alter the direction of the nation," said Rev. Dr. William J. Barber II in a speech Monday afternoon ahead of a direct action that led to the arrest of 70+ progressive activists.
Rev. Dr. Barber specifically called out politicians over the increase in poverty amidst the pandemic when paired with 2 trillion in new wealth generated for billionaires during the same time period.

Antifa activist Jason Charter held a press conference Wednesday afternoon alongside his lawyer where he denied the Trump administration's claim that he is the "ringleader of antifa."
"My name is Jason Charter, and I am a proud antifascist," he began.
"The 'ringleader of antifa' statement is as absurd as it is false," he said. "Antifa is an idea which simply means to be against fascism."
"We organize horizontally and don't believe in a hierarchy, so can how could there be leaders?" he asked. "The only reason I was arrested was so Trump could put a face to the unrest around the country surrounding the longstanding racism in the United States."
Charter currently faces three felony counts related to the statue of Andrew Jackson in front of the White House, which was vandalized on June 22, 2020 by a group of George Floyd protesters.
The charges include Destruction of Government Property, Destruction of Veterans' Memorials, and Aiding and Abetting.
Another charge of Destruction of Government Property pertaining to the statue of Albert Pike that had been torn down on June 22, 2020 was dropped by prosecutors.

Supporters of January 6 defendants held a Memorial Day march on Monday from the Capitol to DC Jail for Ashli Babbitt, an Air Force Veteran killed on J6.
"Ashli Babbitt!" chanted the crowd, which included her mother, Micki Witthoeft.
"F*** Ashli Babbitt!" yelled a counter-protesting livestreamer who goes by the name "Anarchy Princess" that yelled at them on the entire route.
"Anarchy Princess" made fun of the mother of Robert Gieswein, a January 6 defendant that plead guilty and had a pouch that said "My Mom Thinks I’m Special" on his vest: "What a stupid book bag to wear while you insurrect the Capitol."
"Did your momma not love you?" Gieswein's mother responded.
"Why are you so full of hate?" another asked AP.
J6 defendant supporter Gary McBride and "Anarchy Princess" made physical contact and accused each other of pushing.
As the Ashli Babbitt Memorial Day march got closer to the DC Jail, "Anarchy Princess" shouted through the megaphone that there's "Terrorists coming through your neighborhood!"
"Ashli Babbitt's mom, domestic terrorist!" she yelled. "Nazis incoming! Insurrectionist losers!"
In response, Ashli Babbitt's mother Micki Witthoeft told me that "My daughter served this country for their freedom to be idiots, so you're welcome."
"Go home and worry about your son," livestreamer Anarchy Princess said to Ashli Babbitt's mother Micki Witthoeft. "Go home and take care of your one baby who's not dead or in prison."
"Nazis coming!" she yelled.
Ashli Babbitt's mother Micki Witthoeft got close to livestreamer Anarchy Princess as they arrived at the jail.
AP gave her the finger, and Witthoeft swiped her hand and pushed her away by the backpack.
About a minute later, Witthoeft grabbed her megaphone, which was playing siren sounds, and threw it on the ground. The sirens stopped.
Tommy Tatum, a prominent participant in the January 6 defendants' movement, briefly confronted AP close up before a police officer separated them.
AP said "I need to press charges" against Witthoeft over the megaphone, but there were no arrests.

"They can't define 'assault weapon' but somehow they want to ban assault weapons!" said Arizona Congressman Andy Biggs speaking out at a Second Amendment Rally in Phoenix on Saturday. "I've really had it in Washington DC."
"I'm trying to understand why it's ok for us to transfer your tax dollars to Ukraine so they can be weaponized but they want to take away the weapons and guns of American citizens."
