Fact check: How a group of right-wingers spread a lie that Black Lives Matter stormed Iowa's Capitol
CNN
Iowa protesters did not force their way into the building last week. They walked lawfully through security -- getting their belongings scanned and their temperatures checked. The Iowa protesters even had a permit to protest in the building. And the building is open to the public anyway.
Some of them explicitly claimed that the protesters had forced their way into the building. Another suggested that what happened in Des Moines was "exactly" like what had happened at the US Capitol in Washington on January 6. It wasn't. Not even close. Because the Iowa protesters didn't storm the state Capitol.More Related News
