Dozens arrested in D.C. this weekend, including registered child sex offender
Dozens were arrested after a “Million MAGA March” in Washington D.C. this weekend including a BLM activist and registered child sex offender, Kenneth Wayne DeBerry.
DeBerry was arrested for allegedly assaulting people. He was charged with aggravated assault, inciting violence and being a felon in possession of a gun.
During the day the rally was peaceful but as the march continued into the night, leftist counter-protesters turned out in opposition. Violence began to escalate and more than 20 people were arrested, according to local reports.
Trump accused Antifa for attacking “innocent MAGA People” on Twitter.
Twitter videos appear to show anti-Trump demonstrators harassing Trump supporters by burning their Trump hats and flags, punching people in the streets and even reports of stabbing.
Authorities said one male demonstrator was stabbed multiple times and sustained injuries that were not considered life threatening.
A variety of charges, including assault and weapons possession, were filed against those arrested, officials said. Two police officers were injured and several firearms were recovered by police.

Analysis: Biden unlikely to sanction Iran’s oil exports, gas prices ‘critical during an election year’
Analysts say President Joe Biden is unlikely to “prompt dramatic sanctions action on Iran’s oil exports” due to “worries about boosting oil prices and angering top buyer China” according to Reuters.
Speaking to Fox News on Sunday, House Republican Representative Steve Scalise, said the administration had made it easier for Iran to sell its oil, generating revenues that were being used to “go fund terrorist activity.”
The Biden administration has maintained for months that among its primary goals is to keep the Gaza conflict between terror group Hamas and Israel from turning into a wider regional war. However, House Republican leaders accused President Joe Biden of failing to enforce existing measures and said they would take up this week a series of bills to sharpen sanctions on Iran.
Kimberly Donovan, a sanctions and anti-money laundering expert at the Atlantic Council, said that oil-related sanctions have not been strictly enforced in the past couple of years.
“I would not expect the administration to tighten enforcement in response to Iran’s missile and drone attacks against Israel over the weekend, mainly for concerns (that) could lead to increases in oil prices,” she said.
