Eileen Clancy: Aww, thanks. For about a decade, my work was trying to protect public space for protest. And, protecting individuals who got b.s. arrests at protests. I had to stop doing that work because it was far too dangerous. But, I still care about people not being hung out to dry by the govt.

It's important to note that Trump tried to order this at least twice we know of during his regime.

right. the president could order troops to suppress protesters using live fire and the supreme court would extend that absolute immunity

This actually happened. For real. Trump wanted this guy killed and federal marshals mercilessly shot him dead in the street very shortly thereafter. And, bragged in a debate.

He bragged in a debate about ordering the Marshalls to kill Michael Reinoehl

Well remembered, my brain is swiss cheese this week. And yes, this happened, this horrifically happened. And there will be no justice.

I feel you on the memory stuff! We're all gonna have to dig up and share nasty stuff from past six years, and earlier. Now, white normies think "rights" protect them. I don't mean to talk down to people. It's just political education needs to happen fast. To stop people from getting picked off.

You're not coming off as talking down to anyone. 💕
