On June 1, U.S. Park Police and other agents attacked peaceful protesters in front of the @WhiteHouse at #LafayetteSquare in Washington, D.C.
At our June 29 hearing, some Republican members dismissed how the agents used tear gas & beat unarmed civilians as no big deal.pic.twitter.com/wq6OOnTWZz
We’re holding a July 28 follow-up hearing to get to the bottom of who ordered that attack and why. Acting U.S. Park Police Chief Gregory Monahan will testify. Then we’ll hear from Adam DeMarco, a former Army officer & major in the DC National Guard. https://bit.ly/2OQBAZG pic.twitter.com/lKfHyGd79o
Maj. DeMarco is appearing before the Committee to offer testimony under the Military Whistleblower Protection Act. He coordinated military & law enforcement agents on June 1 & directly witnessed how the crackdown was carried out. We look forward to his testimony.
Lafayette Square was a turning point that gave way to the Trump admin’s ongoing violent attacks on civilians. We need to know who ordered the crackdown & why. The right to protest & peaceably assemble is deeply American. We cannot let these types of attacks happen ever again.
Lets put an end to racism RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!! Our species does not deserve this!!!!
I watched this happen on live tv. My jaw hung open. I could not believe what I was seeing. Very peaceful protesters were just herded by horse back riders and tear gassed to just get them out of the way. Shocking.
Me too!
