Squad member Rep. Cori Bush quotes MLK to defend PRISON RIOT as language of the UNHEARD. But…
[Right Scoop] Member (but not FOUNDING member) of "The Squad" Rep. Cori Bush out of Missouri defended a riot that took place on Saturday. Shocker, I know. It was a prison riot, described by corrections officers as "extremely violent" and lasting over eight hours, and Bush protectively referred to them as her constituents and said they need her protection, quoting Martin Luther King Jr. to suggest they are victims who are "unheard."

"I want to talk to my constituents in the window," she said, referring to the photo in the tweet she was retweeting showing violent criminals making gang signs through the broken glass of the windows they’d busted out in their violent riot and battles with officers of the law at a jail in St. Louis.

"Their lives and their rights must be protected," she said of those constituents but not the law enforcement risking their lives, "My team and I are working to ensure that the urgent needs of people who are incarcerated are not ignored."
