These Washington rats werent voting on the infrastructure bill.

A Popeyes chicken franchise in the nations capital was shut down after a viral TikTok video exposed a nasty rodent infestation. (Watch it below.)

In a clip posted earlier this month, TikTok member @blackazzriq01 identified himself as a chicken supplier for Popeyes in Washington and invited viewers into one restaurant located in the Capitol Hill neighborhood.

He flicked on the kitchen lights, revealing a parade of rats running up the wall. Some scurried across the floor.

You still love that chicken from Popeyes? he says at the end, riffing on the fast food chains slogan.
