The video of Jill, Kelly and Jason being "bicycled" by the cops-thugs is pretty scary. Anyone who has met Jill in person knows she weighs about 90 pounds sopping wet. Kelly isn't much bigger, either. They could have broken bones and caused severe bruising to them pushing them and throwing them to the ground.

They charged Jill with "assault" and everyone else with "trespassing." Excuse me? Jill was assaulted, and like I said before, she weighs about a third of what the big fat pigs weigh. They were clearly assaulting her and the others. Someone pointed out to me that this could be yet another dirty trick by the Dems. They want her to be charged with a felony so she is unable to be on some states' ballots, sort of like what they're trying to do with Trump. Just when you thought the Dems had gone as low as they could go... Sigh!

I saw something reporting she had to go to the emergency room, but I don't know if that was several hours later etc. Many of these cops are off the damn fascism scale.

I saw an X/Twitter post from Medea Benjamin of Code Pink. She got a HUGE bruise on her leg from protesting at the White House Press Banquet thingy the other day. And she's a tiny woman as well. What the f*** are these cops/thugs thinking when they use that sort of force on small and older persons? They really do want to injure--possibly fatally--people. I hope Jill is okay. She is very brave with a huge heart, but she is still not a very large person in size, and the fascists can use this against her.

I think it is quite significant. He can be a great adviser to the campaign on foreign affairs issues.
