The U.S. Justice Dept has become Trump's very own personal legal defense team. Barr has replaced Michael Cohen as Trump's latest fixer.

In a joint statement, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio, Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler, and Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan accused the Trump administration of playing politics and said withholding federal funds would be illegal.

Durkan, Wheeler, and de Blasio are responsible for the fact that state prosecutors are NOT charging the "peaceful" rioters, looters, and arsonists after police officers have risked their own lives in order to detain and arrest the lawbreakers.

Durkan, Wheeler, and de Blasio have demonstrated by their actions that they do NOT want the violence, terrorism, and anarchy to end until after Harris/Biden wins election, which won't be in 2020.

Trump treats the office of President like he would a murky real estate deal, using every lever available to get his way.

He does not have any comprehension of the dignity. With luck he'll be gone in six weeks, dragged kicking and screaming like a child from the White House.

Protesting is a right for anyone living or visiting the USA. It is part of our democracy. We don't do like many other countries and prohibit visitors from taking part in peaceful protests.

As soon as violence or destruction of any property happens, that's when the police need to act, but with compassion towards the people who are just trying to get to safety.

Protest organizers need to bring their own security people to clamp down on undesirable protestors looking to cause trouble by being violent or breaking property. If they fail to do this, then law enforcement - police, state, and federal have a duty to bring order and break up the protesters.

Get 100K LOCAL protestors to show up and people will pay attention. Get 2K protestors, flown in from 40 other states, and it doesn't bring the same message.
