The African-American woman who was last month filmed preaching to protesters inside the failed nation formerly known as CHAZ, has been arrested after throwing paint on the Black Lives Matter ‘mural’ outside Trump Tower in New York.
Bevelyn Beatty was on hands and knees on Saturday, covering the ‘artwork’ laid down with the help of Mayor Bill de Blasio a week ago.
“They do it for black people, right?” Beatty said as she emptied a black paint tin over the sign. “Black Lives Matter. But you want to defund the police for black people. You’re lying.

“No, we’re not standing for Black Lives Matter. We want our police. Refund our police! Refund our police!
“You all don’t care about black lives. Get the paint,” she added.
As police approached, Beatty began smearing the paint across the sign with her hands.
“They say ‘Black Lives Matter’,” she shouted. “They don’t care about black lives!”

A member of the public began berating Beatty for her actions, saying: “F*** you! F*** you! F*** you!”
Another woman can also be seen helping Beatty pour pain across the sign before also being detained by police.
The ‘mural’ has been defaced at least three times since it was painted. Two individuals were arrested on Friday after throwing blue paint across the letters as people shouted “All Lives Matter” and “Blue Lives Matter.”
Last month Beatty was in CHAZ where she was filmed calling out the Democrats as harmful to the black community and suggesting a vote for Joe Biden would have a devastating impact on African-Americans.
Bevelyn Beatty arrested but all in the name is Jesus and fighting for our country!
