Felon's Staff Has Altercation At Illegal Arlington Cemetery Photo-Op

The felon participated in an event marking the third anniversary of the deadly attack in Afghanistan as U.S. forces withdrew from the country; 13 U.S. service members were killed in the attack, and make no mistake about it: The responsibility for the chaos belongs on Trump's shoulders. Of course, though, Trump has blamed President Biden for the deaths.

NPR reports:

Two members of Donald Trump's campaign staff had a verbal and physical altercation Monday with an official at Arlington National Cemetery, where the former president participated in a wreath-laying ceremony, NPR has learned.

A source with knowledge of the incident said the cemetery official tried to prevent Trump staffers from filming and photographing in a section where recent U.S. casualties are buried. The source said Arlington officials had made clear that only cemetery staff members would be authorized to take photographs or film in the area, known as Section 60.

When the cemetery official tried to prevent Trump campaign staff from entering Section 60, campaign staff verbally abused and pushed the official aside, according to the source.

Gee, that sounds Corey Lewandoski-ish. The Trump campaign's toxic and abrasive spokesman, Steven Cheung, told NPR: "We are prepared to release footage if such defamatory claims are made."

However, the footage has not been released yet.
