"The freedom of individuals verbally to oppose or challenge police action without thereby risking arrest is one of the principal characteristics by which we distinguish a free nation from a police state."

Q: "Do you believe that deadly force was necessary?"
Trump: "It was highly disrespectful of law enforcement. The woman and her friend were highly disrespectful of law enforcement…Law enforcement should not be in a position where they have to put up with this stuff."

Not the WSJ having the only even moderately acceptable push alert here.

Sending the National Guard to Kent State in 1970 was, famously, the savvy solution that turned American sentiment in favor of the Vietnam War, and made Richard Nixon the beloved president that he remains today.

When Rep. Victoria Spartz says “if you break the law you don’t deserve due process,” she’s either dangerously ignorant of the Constitution or deliberately misleading people. Due process isn’t about protecting criminals. It’s about protecting everyone from abuse of power.

The FBI and Justice Department will do exactly nothing about the national security fiasco.
They exist now to serve a man and his personal agenda(s) only and not the people nor their oaths of office.
