Capitol Riot Attendee Wants No Biden Voters At His Coffee Shop

METRO CLEVELAND, OH — An Ohio coffee shop owner has said people who support President Joe Biden, the transgender community or anyone who kneeled for the national anthem should not buy his coffee.

Adam Newbold, owner of C4 Coffee in Lisbon — about halfway between Cleveland and Pittsburgh — posted a video about it on a website called Rumble this past weekend, according to a WKBN report.

Newbold said he was present in the Jan. 6 Capitol riot but did not commit any crimes. He said he doesn’t condone those who did but understands their anger.

“If you voted for Joe Biden, don’t buy our coffee, it’s not for you,” Newbold said, according to the news station. “If you believe there was nothing wrong with this election … don’t buy our coffee.” Read more from WKBN
