Reporter to Leavitt: "I'm struck that the president has not at any point said 'the most important thing is to protect the 1st Amendment rights of peaceful protesters' ... why is he not out saying, 'all peaceful protesters will be protected?'"

INTRODUCTION
1. "[The right to counsel is the foundation for our adversary system," Martinez v.
Ryan, 566 U.S. 1, 12 (2012), and the "courage" of attorneys who take on unpopular clients has
long "made lawyerdom proud," Sacher v. United States, 343 U.S. 1, 4 (1952). John Adams famously embodied these principles by defending eight British soldiers in the "Boston Massacre"
trial, an effort he described as "one of the best pieces of service I ever rendered my country."! And
British monarchs' practice of punishing attorneys "whose greatest crime was to dare to defend
unpopular causes"-which threatened to reduce lawyers to "parrots of the views of whatever group
wields governmental power at the moment"-helped inspire the Bill of Rights. Cohen v. Hurley,
366 U.S. 117, 138-40 (1961) (Black, J., dissenting). It is thus a core principle of our legal system
that "one should not be penalized for merely defending or prosecuting a lawsuit." F. D. Rich Co.
v. United States ex rel. Indus. Lumber Co., 417 U.S. 116, 129 (1974).
In an unprecedented assault on that bedrock principle, the President has issued
multiple executive orders in recent weeks targeting law firms and their employees as an
undisguised form of retaliation for representing clients and causes he disfavors or employing lawyers he dislikes? These "personal vendetta[s]" are so facially improper that the first court to address the merits of one of these orders concluded that it likely violates multiple foundational
' David McCullough, John Adams 68 (2001).

I had the privilege to witness this in Bolivia.
After 21 days of relentless creative peaceful street-blocking protests all across the country, the people (police & military ended up joining them) ousted the then president who had committed blatant fraud to try & hold on to power.

This is the correct take. If the situation was hopeless, the propaganda would be unnecessary. If they truly had the power and the mandate, they would not be scrambling to clamp down.
If you want to know why Donald Trump is becoming more unhinged, the answer is simple: he’s realizing that he does not have the mandate he claimed to have.
