"Climate Activists Vandalize US Constitution at National Archives with Red and Pink Powder"

The activists, calling for President Biden to declare a climate emergency, were arrested and may face federal charges. The Constitution, Declaration of Independence, and Bill of Rights were unharmed, and the National Archives Rotunda will reopen after cleaning. This incident follows a recent protest by climate activists demanding action on climate change.
