Video recording police in public is protected by the 1st Amendment. Labeling journalists/citizens filming officers as engaging in “acts of violence” is absurd, contradicting both law & common sense. Such recordings are lawful expressions of free speech & accountability.

Recording police is ‘violence’? Absolutely not.
Now the Trump administration is trying to destroy the right to document police by labeling it as an attack

Across the country, special elections keep going against Trump and his allies and that backlash is exactly why his administration is doubling down. The Department of Justice sued six states, including Pennsylvania, the nation’s biggest presidential battleground, in a push to seize voter data.

Two big firsts today. No other American president has ever named a political opponent to be prosecuted—much less had an AG follow through with an indictment. No FBI Director has ever released evidence from a live crime scene. The Epstein files must be SO BAD.
