What did I tell you about visiting GAW?
Just kidding, it looks fake.
List of the Tuesday breakfast club:
• Alma Adams of North Carolina
• Cori Bush of Missouri
• Assistant Speaker Katherine Clark of Massachusetts
• Madeleine Dean of Pennsylvania
• Veronica Escobar of Texas
• Sara Jacobs of California
• Barbara Lee of California
• Andy Levin of Michigan
• Carolyn Maloney of New York
• Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York
• Ilhan Omar of Minnesota
It looks fake because AOC was trying to look as if she was handcuffed to give the protest more drama than it deserved.

Feigning being handcuffed to score some political 'protest' gravitas is not prosecutable, unlike resisting arrest which will result in being handcuffed. Pretty sure AOC promised the cop an autographed copy of Saul Alinsky's book if he played along with the ruse. /s
Of those who were arrested, it's a huge nothing burger.
The initial group of lawmakers and activists were released from custody at approximately 2:30, Jennifer Shutt with the States Newsroom reported, adding that Dean said they were charged with “crowding, obstructing or incommoding and need to pay a $50 fine.”
For those trying to walk and chew gum at the same time (Against the work ethic rules of the House of Representatives), no charges were made since they failed in the attempt. /s
