DHS Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen was having dinner at a place reported to be a Mexican restaurant Tuesday night in Washington, DC, until protesters, who somehow knew where she was going to be, arrived and started yelling:
wow — Protesters crashed DHS Sec Kirstjen Nielsen's dinner at a Mexican restaurant tonight, shouting "shame!" and "if kids don't eat in peace, you don't eat in peace!" Eventually drove her out. Video: https://t.co/z9HhnhAZE5

The Metro D.C. Democratic Socialists took credit for organizing the disruption:

Part one of a video of @mdc_dsa @DC_IWW and others shouting DHS Secretary Nielsen out of a restaurant. She doesn’t need to be kidnapping #immigrantchildren to deserve this treatment. Don’t give the regime a moment of rest. #KeepFamilesTogether pic.twitter.com/B3RfraOk1E

DHS Sec. Nielsen was just dining at MXDC (a Mexican restaurant) when activists with @mdc_dsa stormed in to confront her on family separation. https://t.co/bHFqCSEZUB pic.twitter.com/hiNSBWSnHN

Reportedly that’s why Nielsen left the restaurant early:

Naturally, The Resistance is cheering. Among them, super-feminist Jessica Valenti:
DHS secretary Kirstjen Nielsen was confronted at a DC restaurant by DSA protesters and it's VERY satisfying to watch. She should never be able to show her face in public again.https://t.co/npKehwW3bb

Between this and "Mr President Fuck You" my night is looking up

Like any good feminist, she’s always standing up for all women. Oh, wait…
To the folks replying “it’s not feminist to harass women.” That’s true!
But it is absolutely feminist to hold powerful people accountable – no matter what their gender, no matter where they are – for the crimes they commit against vulnerable children.

Oops, Valenti tripped over “feminism” there a little bit.
This kind of rhetoric, escalated, is what made James Hodgkinson feel justified on that baseball field. Don't applaud it. It's disturbing and wrong. https://t.co/UhR3CPVMI9

Disturbing, and then some.
You have tremendous hatred in your heart, Jessica. https://t.co/yHgczQt9Gp

Leftists have been radicalized. They have nothing left but hatred.
They want to destroy you. #TheyHateYou https://t.co/mOn5dkrMSi

Secretary Nielsen was having dinner THEN an angry lynch-mob of socialists (the group's actual name is METRO D.C. DEMOCRATIC SOCIALISTS OF AMERICA) disrupts her dinner.
This is NOT normal or productive behavior. Please don't normalize this crap. #MAGA?? #RedNationRising? https://t.co/wLwz2DwVpm

Media left: stalk your adversaries, attack them in public, and try to make sure they "never be able to show their face in public again." https://t.co/v4VoeFsWuj

I don't want to hear any complaints when "activists" do this to Democrats now. https://t.co/VJNdk1ju1q

The problem is it won’t ever happen because conservatives are the truly tolerant ones who are generally respectful in a public place and actually believe in an individual’s right to hold a differing opinion.

So this is ok now. The Left and their fluffers in NeverTrump want people stalked, harassed and attacked. https://t.co/Spvwr06qXX

Nearly a year to the day that Steve Scalise was shot in public, the media is celebrating and encouraging more confrontations with elected officials so they are afraid to appear in public … https://t.co/qWms8Ko67b

Amazing. Actually, no it isn’t.
