Re 

above out of Durham, got a DM asking why I thought DPD would deliberately do that
I *don't* think they deliberately did it; I think they were asleep at the switch (a point I thought I made in the tweet after)
Malfeasance, misfeasance, and nonfeasance can all be deadly

New York City, NY: police stop issuing press credentials to keep the reporters out
Given how many journalists they beat and shoot on air, honestly I'm surprised NYPD doesn't issue *more* credentials to have more targetshttps://twitter.com/melissagira/status/1268987406805499907 …T. Greg Doucette added,

Mike Dunford @questauthorityThis reads less like an attempt to assault Brandenburg, and more like the FBI trying to link some dumbass in literally Peoria to everything bad that happened in Peoria in a 2-day period because Barr told them to find federal crimes and this is the closest they could come up with.Show this thread2 replies 29 retweets 101 likesShow this thread -

More on


in Valdosta. The Sheriff who strangled the protestor said he took the sign for displaying profanity

Valdosta, GA: making this a separate incident because it happened the following day — the Sheriff of Lowndes County illegally arrested a woman for holding a profane sign
This criminal prosecution will end up dismissed, & the department likely suedhttps://twitter.com/adamsteinbaugh/status/1269281278463037440 …T. Greg Doucette added,
Adam SteinbaughVerified account @adamsteinbaughOn Thursday, he carried through on that unconstitutional promise. This woman, holding up a sign using a vulgar word, this time directed at the sheriff and the president -- an obvious commentary on the sheriff's earlier abuse -- was arrested. https://www.wctv.tv/content/news/Lowndes-County-arrests-protester-for-obscene-sign-571035091.html … pic.twitter.com/lynyiXGcSTShow this thread5 replies 131 retweets 300 likesShow this thread -

Seattle, WA:
Guy runs from cops and dives into a random SUV. So police club him (0:33), but then punch him in the face for sport after he's cuffed (1:44)
And arrest the random driver
And arrest someone filming
