In Providence yesterday, Tiny Toese was allowed to cross the police line and attack protesters as he pleased. When the Proud Boys started losing, the police stepped in and gave a dispersal order, threatening to arrest anyone who remained on both sides. https://t.co/dSlYMHnJyN
There was a mix of both on the ground yesterday. Don't quote me on it-- definitely check out the videos for yourself-- but I believe the State Police were in charge.

The Projo says it was a combo of State Police, Providence Police, Capitol Police, Sheriffs Department (Why?) and "the Disaster Management Assistance Team," which I can't find any info on. I assume they're Feds and were the snipers and guys with rifles.

I think the last guys you mentioned are a DHS Dept. That showed up in Portland during the ice occupation. Not sure tho
