As President Trump arrived Tuesday at the U.S. Capitol to have lunch with Republican leadership, a protester inside the hall threw Russian flags at the president, shouting “Trump is treason!” at him. “This president conspired with agents of the Russian government,” the unidentified protester, wearing a suit and tie, shouted as police removed him. “Everyone’s talking about tax cuts; we should be talking about treason!” he added.
