there is no fact-based evaluation that does not hold George W. Bush and Barack Obama partly responsible for where we are with Trump. For decades we let these guys extend the power of the executive and no one with power ever pushed back. We are reaping those consequences now.
This is their argument. In court. Not just a theory.

Who the president is right now doesn't matter, this was always going to happen as soon as Trump won. And it's going to happen again and again while he's in office, just like it did the first time around.
Under Biden - not Trump.
Police stopped, but didn't arrest neo-Nazis in #Columbus that held an armed march + attacked people with pepper spray and racial slurs.
Compare this response to arrests of students in nearby #Cleveland on felony charges for putting up graffiti + posters for #Palestine.

If I were going to commit a genocide, I’d make sure to kill as many women and children as possible to eliminate the future generations of the people I was trying to wipe out. Come to think of it, I guess I’d do what Israel is doing in Gaza.
