And finally… mother of all rioters

A teenager who was rapped for supporting Black Lives Matter protests turned the tables on her mother by turning her in for allegedly trying to storm the Capitol.

Helena Duke, 18, took to Twitter to highlight footage of her mum, uncle and aunt among the mob of pro-Trump rioters who wreaked havoc earlier this month.

Her first tweet read: “hi mom remember the time you told me I shouldn’t go to BLM protests bc they could get violent…this you?”

The footage she highlighted shows a woman she claims is her mother, Therese Duke, grabbing at a black security guard’s face mask and then being punched in the face.

In further tweets, Helena said she was “the liberal lesbian of the family who has been kicked out multiple times for her views and for going to BLM protests”.

Therese’s employer, UMass Memorial Medical Center, has reportedly fired her, Advocate reports.
