During today’s legislative meeting of the D.C. Council, a protester interrupted proceedings with a tirade against Ward 4 Councilmember Muriel Bowser regarding the construction of a Walmart in that ward. (A community activism group called Ward Four Thrives had been demonstrating outside the chambers this morning — check out some video of the tail end of the incident after the jump.) The incident was rather quickly forgotten — after all, protesters have interrupted the Council before, and with testy budget hearings looming, they will most certainly interrupt them again in the future.
