BREAKING: Jack Posobiec confronts Rep Jamie Raskin in DC, is assaulted by Democrat union workers

"Jamie, why did you lose the popular vote? Why did you lose every single swing state?" Posobiec shouted, refering to the Democrats' performance in the 2024 election. The crowd, lead by the congressman, began to chant USA before the unruly mob assaulted and cursed at him, knocking his phone to the ground.

Raskin has been a vocal opponent of President Donald Trump and was the ranking member of the Select Committee on January 6.

A police report filed byPosobiec with the US Capitol Police detailed the assault on him by the attendees.

The statement to police said that Posobiec exited Union Station at around 5 pm, to discover a protest occurring nearby. Upon closer inspection, he found out that it was Rep. Jamie Raskin speaking to a crowd of federal union workers.

"I stood and listened for a few minutes with the crowd, filming. When Raskin called for protest I asked why he lost the election. At that point, Raskin pointed at me and egged on the crowd, who began swarming me and pushing, pulling me, hitting my phone down, and stealing my work backpack," the statement to police said.

The violent incident follows earlier reporting on Raskin’s efforts to recalibrate Democratic messaging and tone, apparently to no effect. In mid-January, during a retreat for Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee, Raskin invited psychologist Jim Coan and consultant Hal Movius to speak to members, according to Punchbowl News.

Movius is known for his work in “emotional regulation,” “negotiation,” and “organizational development.” The purpose of the session was to guide Democrats on how to manage conflict and navigate what the speakers described as “authoritarian styles of speech.” One attendee told the outlet the experts advised committee members to avoid getting drawn into heated partisan arguments.

According to the source, the session focused on “communication styles during the Trump era” and encouraged a more strategic approach to opposition.

Posobiec later said that he filed a report on the the incident, writing, "I have filed a full police report with federal law enforcement."
