This is the kind of excessive force case DOJ routinely prosecutes. They should open an investigation here, based on the misconduct not the victims status.

It's about low to no Empathy having people terrorizing folks with Empathy because it's entertaining.

In an absolutely devastating ruling, the Supreme Court has allowed the transgender military ban to go into effect.
This is shocking - the ban explicitly called transgender people dishonorable for being transgender. It is as clear as day soaked in animus.

The House Education and Workforce section of the reconciliation bill would eliminate the Education Department's authority to cancel student debt for borrowers whose schools defraud them.
So if you're a victim of fraud by your college, you'd still have to pay that loan that was fraudulently derived.

Imagine dismantling the only federal agency dedicated to uplifting minority businesses—
That’s exactly what Trump did.
The MBDA went from nearly 100 employees to just a few.
You don’t gut an agency like that unless you’re trying to kill its mission.

This, in a nutshell, is why the Justice Department remains independent from the White House when it comes to directing criminal prosecution. A country that fails to take to heart the lessons of Watergate ends up with Trump.
If this were a report about any other country in the world, the headline would be something more like "Trump Expands Efforts to Crackdown on Political Opposition."
