Federal Investigation Concludes Protest Not Broken Up Due to Trump’s Church Visit

(Worthy News) – A federal investigation has determined that the decision to forcibly clear racial justice protesters from an area in front of the White House last summer was not influenced by then-President Donald Trump’s plan to visit a historic Washington, D.C. church set on fire by protesters the night before.

The report released Wednesday by the Interior Department’s inspector general concludes that the protesters were cleared by U.S. Park Police last June 1 so that a contractor could get started installing new fencing.

As CBN News reported in June of 2020, the demonstrators were protesting the death of George Floyd, who died after a then-Minneapolis police officer knelt on his neck and pinned him to the ground for about 9 1/2 minutes. A half-hour after the Washington protesters were forced from the area with pepper pellets and flashbangs, Trump walked across Lafayette Park and delivered a short speech while holding a Bible in front of St. John’s Church.
