Ben Cohen — the far-left co-founder of the notoriously woke Ben & Jerry’s ice cream company — was ARRESTED Wednesday during a Senate hearing for causing a major disruption with a deranged pro-Gaza protest while Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was testifying.
Cohen disrupted the proceedings with an unhinged pro-Gaza protest, accusing Congress of “killing poor kids in Gaza” and bizarrely linking Medicaid funding to the Israel-Hamas conflict, according to NBC News.
Capitol Police were forced to remove Cohen and six other protesters after their outbursts derailed the hearing.
The scene quickly descended into chaos after one protester shouted, “RFK kills people with AIDS,” before Cohen stood up and launched into a tirade blaming the U.S. for the deaths of Palestinian children.
Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-LA), who chaired the hearing, swiftly ordered the removal of the disrupters.
“Members of the audience are reminded disruptions will not be permitted while the committee conducts its business. Capitol Police are asked to remove the individuals from the hearing room,” Cassidy announced while Cohen was forcibly removed by a Capitol police.
