ST. LOUIS Rep. Cori Bush, D-Mo., is facing criticism for her tacit approval to a riot Saturday at a downtown St. Louis jail after showing disapproval during the Capitol riot.
Inmates rioted over a variety of concerns, setting fires, smashing windows and throwing debris to the street below. It took corrections officers almost eight hours to end the “extremely violent” disturbance.
But the Missouri congresswoman tweeted a statement of support for the rioters, saying she would work to address their grievances, which include safety fears due to the coronavirus pandemic, Fox News reported.
