A Texas city on Wednesday agreed to a $175,000 settlement with passengers on one of President Joe Biden's campaign buses in 2020, including Democrat Wendy Davis, who accused police of ignoring their calls for help after a caravan of Donald Trump supporters surrounded them on a highway. The episode took place days before the November election as the bus approached Austin.
'The intimidation we experienced on the highway that day and the threat to our safety, simply for engaging in the political process and supporting the candidate of our choosing, should never happen in this country,” Davis said in a statement. San Marcos City Manager Stephanie Reyes said the city continues to deny many of the allegations in the lawsuit.
