Under t1 they kidnapped citizens off the streets to try and chill potential protesters.

But hey.. occupy and defund and blm weren't the right optics for the democratic party, so we collectively looked the other way.

They never got so much as investigated, much less faced consequences, under biden. Now they have absolutely no fear.
