Footage from the violent, bone-crushing attack on Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) by Code Pink head organizer Susie Benjamin circulated on social media on Wednesday, and Luna says it’s “more than enough evidence” to prove a criminal act. 

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Luna claimed Medea Benjamin assaulted her after questioning Secretary of State Marco Rubio in a House Foreign Affairs Committee hearing on Thursday.

“The head honcho of Code Pink here on Capitol Hill decided to try to harass me as I was leaving my hearing with Rubio and smacked my arm,” she said. “I have no issues answering questions, but the moment you touch me, you cross a line.”

She went on to describe the incident, laughably claiming she was “physically hit” and that she would file charges.

However, video from the incident shows Benjamin tapping Luna on the arm as if to get her attention. Although Code Pink is indeed a radical left organization, and they were following the Congresswoman, it was hardly a smack as she alleged.

Instead of just ignoring them, Luna had engaged in a conversation with the activists until the “smack,” and Benjamin agreed to walk away after she was threatened with the Capitol Police. Luna rightfully shut the crazed leftist down, but going on to represent it as a malicious assault was silly.

Luna later said in an interview with TMZ that Benjamin “smacked my arm” and that she was planning to press charges.

“There’s footage of this, they have multiple angles of this, there was multiple witnesses, we have people that filed statements as well, and I think that she’s going to be getting in a lot of trouble. You cannot do that to people,” she said.

“We live in a day and age when people feel like they can hurt people because they disagree with them politically. We’ve seen this happen to many conservatives, but I’m sure it also happens on the left as well. That’s unacceptable,” she added.

“We have more than enough evidence to hold this person accountable and responsible, and let this person be a symbol everyone else that come up here and try to hurt people because they disagree with them.”

When asked if she thinks the person will be arrested, Luna responded, “Yes, without a doubt,” adding, “You cannot hit people because they disagree with you.”
