| Another round for Angie Craig. Minnesota lawmaker fought an attacker. |
Rep. Angie Craig (D-MN) is not your typical noisemaker in Congress. She is a relatively low profile type of lawmaker who understands the role of being a representative for her constituents of the 2nd Congressional District.
Her district covers exurbs and suburban areas in the Minneapolis/St. Paul metroplex.
She does not make the news with endless noise, trolling and click bait.
Craig confirms she managed to fend off her attacker with hot coffee, reports the BBC. The incident took place a little after 7am in Craig's apartment building in Washington, DC. She first saw her assailant in the lobby of the building, and he was "acting erratic as if he was under the influence of an unknown substance," per the police report cited by NPR.
She isn't in the news like Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO), Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), Rep. Maxwell Frost (D-FL), Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA), Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA), Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA), Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA), Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), Rep. George Santos (R-NY), Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL), Rep. Paul Gosar (R-AZ), Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH), Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ), Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO), Rep. James Comer (R-KY) and Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL).
Those aforementioned are noise makers and distractions to getting things done.
Craig is like Rep. Lauren Underwood (D-IL), Rep. Lucy McBath (D-GA), Rep. Shontel Brown (D-OH), Rep. Abigail Spanberger (D-VA) and Rep. Eleanor Holmes Norton (D-DC). Just works and not be in the media too much.
Craig just minds her business and works.
She also is a good defender. She managed to fend off an attacker who served her a hot plate.
A sexual predator attacked her while she was at her Washington, DC apartment. When Congress is in session, many lawmakers have to rent an apartment to stay in the vicinity whenever their is a vote or a committee hearing.

Craig says the man followed her into the elevator. After she said hello, he started doing pushups, then punched her in the chin and grabbed her neck, say police. At that point, she doused him with her coffee, and he exited the elevator. Police later arrested 26-year-old predator who does not appear to have a permanent address. The attack does not appear to have been politically motivated.
The predator is in custody. The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
Craig is a mother of four and is married to Cheryl Greene. She is one of a handful of LGBTQ members serving in the House of Representatives.
