Milwaukee, Wisconsin - On Saturday, Milwaukee police arrested one individual after Nicholas Alioto, the manager of Serb Hall at the 5100 block of W. Oklahoma Ave. was assaulted by multiple individuals (MAGAs - Make America Great Again/Keep America Great) after attempting to enforce the City of Milwaukee Health Department COVID-19 restrictions such as distancing at a crowed outdoor event "Defend Your Vote" part 2 venue. At least, 500 MAGAs including former Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke and the Republican Party of Milwaukee County (RPMC) Chair David Karst were present. The RPMC sponsored the outdoor rally.
Alioto claims that he was shoved to the ground and kicked several times by individuals at the Trump supporting event. Alioto is heard in the Facebook video (video made available by photojournalist Jade Birch, first aired by Fox6News) telling the crowd to "sit down", in order to practice distancing or he would stop the Trump rally venue to avoid losing Serb Hall's business license.
Apparently, two Milwaukee City Health inspectors were present at the outdoor parking lot venue and one was reported to have been assaulted (pushed by MAGAs) as well, according to a spokesperson from the Milwaukee Health Department. The City of Milwaukee Health Department inspectors were at the rally to enforce bar and restaurant outdoor COVID-19 seat down restrictions and facemask requirements to operate.
WISN Radio Host and known MAGA Vicki McKenna, a guest speaker defied the Milwaukee health officials at the rally and told Trump rally participants to "stand up" in violation of the COVID-19 order, which mandates that those attending an outdoor gathering in restaurants and bars should remain seated to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Most of the participants at the Serb Hall MAGA/GOP rally didn't wear a facemask as required by City health officials at restaurant and bar venues, especially political gatherings at local businesses.
In Milwaukee, outdoor seating capacity at restaurants and bars is 100 capacity and people must remain seating and wear facemasks when not eating or drinking, according to the local health officials and City ordinance.
Serb Hall will allegedly be cited with multiple $500 fines (3 citations) for violating the City's COVID-19 safe practice restrictions during the pandemic business operating conditions to prevent the spread of COVID-19. The MAGAs at the venue ignored Alioto's warning and the venue abruptly ended after police responded to the scene.
The rally participants then walked into the street along with Clarke to protest Biden's election and the City's COVID-19 outdoor restrictions.
The MAGAs in Wisconsin including in Milwaukee are upset that Trump (R) was defeated by Biden (D) in Wisconsin (Biden won 10 Electoral votes in WI) and who received a total of 306 Electoral votes nationally compared to Trump's mere 232 Electoral votes, 270 Electoral votes are needed to win the U.S. presidential election in 2020.
Trump lost his bid to get re-elected on November 3rd and America overwhelmingly rejected Trump's racist anti-immigrant stance and hate rhetoric towards people of color, especially Latinos, including his White nationalist MAGA Amerikkka agenda.
Update: According to WisconsinRightNow dot com., Perfecto Rivera, WHEDA's Business Development Officer, former Republican candidate for Congress District 4th (2006) and talkshow host at WISN-AM 1130 Radio "Valor Latino", since 2005 admitted that, “He said I pushed him and stole his microphone out of his hand and then other people were kicking him. I never touched his body. I did tear the microphone out of his hand. At that point, he was stealing our voice. That was my freedom of speech. When I took the microphone away. I laid it on the table where the power source was. It happened suddenly. I didn’t hurt the guy.”
During the incident, says Rivera, Alioto “attacked me and tried to choke me. I could feel it. The lack of his strength though in trying to choke me, I just walked away from it. He was trying to put his hands around my throat, and people were trying to pull him away from me. I didn’t see if he fell.”
A newly released video by WisconsinRightNow from a different angle shows Rivera grabbing the microphone away from Alioto and Alioto grabbing Rivera by the neck as Rivera attempts to turn away. Another individual wearing a dark beanie cap and red shirt and black jacket is seen grabbing a hold of Alioto and pulling to side as Alioto loses his balance. Apparently, former Sheriff Clarke had told the crowd to stand up too and called for a Proud Boys chapter in Wisconsin. The Proud Boys are known as an alt-right White nationalist militia group.
What Rivera and the rest of crowd at the rally didn't seemed to know was that Alioto is also a MAGA Trump supporter and voted for Trump on November 3rd.
It seems that the MAGAs were attacking the very same individual that allowed them to hold a pro-Trump rally at Serb Hall.
Editors note: It's unfortunate that MAGAs are attacking MAGAs today in Milwaukee as the result of Trump's major defeat by Biden on the November 3rd election and not respecting the rights of private businesses in complying with the Milwaukee Health Department and City ordinance that regulates huge gatherings at political outdoor venues at local restaurants and bars.
Shame on former Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke and Vickie McKenna for telling people to standup in order to defy the seating down City mandate and Perfecto Rivera for being part of the incident at Serb Hall including the Republican Party of Milwaukee County for booking the pro-Trump rally knowing that the COVID-19 outdoor restrictions would be enforced in Milwaukee and not abiding by the health department's order and City ordinance regulating huge political gatherings during the Coronavirus pandemic and especially not making sure that MAGAs attending were made aware to wear facemasks at the rally, which could prevent a surge of COVID-19.
