She also praised the \u201c1619 Project\u201d of the\u00a0<em>New York Times<\/em>, which fraudulently claimed that the American Revolution was fought to defend slavery. In addition, she praised a Black Lives Matter protest in 2016 against police officers who were ultimately found not to have broken the law.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"gmxrevmore\" class=\"H\"><\/figure>\n<p>Sen.
