DC food workers pledge to make Trump officials unwelcome, echoing confrontations in first term
Fox News
Washington, D.C., food workers vow to disrupt service for incoming Trump administration officials, echoing past harassment of his allies during the president-elect's first term in office.
In September 2018, Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, and his wife were harassed at Fiola, an upscale Italian restaurant in Washington, D.C. Protesters confronted them over Cruz’s support for then-Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh during his contentious confirmation hearings. Videos circulated online showing demonstrators shouting at the couple, chanting, "We believe survivors." Cruz and his wife eventually left the restaurant due to the altercation.

This incident was part of a broader wave of confrontations involving Trump administration officials and allies over the summer that year.
