Ellis notes that the feds argue "plaintiffs have not been engaged in First Amendment protected activity" because they've "intermingled themselves with rioters."
"But as I've previously stated," Ellis says, "I don't find defendants' version of events credible."

Ellis notes people being tear gassed, staring down the barrel of a gun and being "slammed to the ground with their head bashed into the street."
"All of that would cause a reasonable person to think twice about exercising their fundamental constitutional rights."

Ellis turns to the testimony of U.S. Border Patrol chief Greg Bovino. How he denied using force against a man he tackled and said he didn't see the Rev. David Black hit by pepperballs.
"More telling," she says, "defendant Bovino admitted that he lied."

When Kash Patel tries to claim his Target List is hyperbole to sell his book, don't believe him. He's a Flynn Digital Soldier & associate of Ivan Raiklin who has his own 'Deep State Target List', which he says is for extra judicial raids & executions of 'enemies within.' Senators better be ready.
