During President Trump's visit to Capitol Hill on Tuesday, a protester broke through the media pool and tossed a number of Russian flags at the President.
Reports indicate that the man yelled "Trump is treason" as the President and Senate majority leader Mitch McConnell flashed a thumbs up and walked away.
The man was whisked away by security after tossing the flags. He identified himself to reporters as Ryan Clayton of American State Action.
