Members of the mainstream media were quick to use staged “handcuff” pics from the Squad this week as members pretended to be escorted from a pro-abortion protest while being restrained by Capitol Police.
Congresswoman Ilhan Omar apparently arrested herself at a pro-abortion protest Tuesday; seemingly arresting herself as she walked from the group alone, smiling, with her hands held behind her back.
In this clip, Ilhan Omar appears to be wearing fake handcuffs and walking away alone with her hands behind her back.
