But first: An update. It appears Jeanine McWinebox, U.S. attorney for D.C., overstepped:
We’ve already discussed sandwich-tossing Sean Dunn and the pickle he’s in over his encounter with Trump’s Dollar Store Gestapo. Dunn was trying to provoke (or so it appears from the video) a federal agent, and if those agents aren’t trained for their part in instituting Trump’s martial law in D.C., most of them know how to ignore verbal provocations.
It’s the physical that gets you in trouble, but rest assured that there are still ways to push back and do so creatively without laying a glove on ‘em.
When a phalanx of provocateurs showed up at Gov. Gavin Newsom’s Thursday press conference, where he announced he’s joining Texas in redrawing his state’s congressional map to get his party more votes, the official reaction was, in a word, perfection. LA Mayor Karen Bass called it a provocative act, and said:
“This is just completely unacceptable. This is a Customs and Border Patrol that has gone amok. This absolutely has to stop. There was no danger here.”
Newsom (or his press office, anyway) has turned the tables not by calling in troops of his own, but by ridiculing the sitting president, using Trump’s staccato phrasing in ALL CAPS on social media. This is first-class trolling here, a perfect mimicry of the garbled mess coming out of the raping felon’s social media accounts:

Other people are getting in on the fun:
I mean, my God. If our legislators and the courts are taking forever, at least humor strikes quickly and it can wound deeply if you’re aiming at a thin-skinned, small-handed, draft-dodging cheating mushroom-felon-traitor who rapes.
Stay strong, everybody. And remember that you inner you’ve-got-to-be-kidding-me muscle is a great weapon. Be like Ben (Cohen, of Ben & Jerry’s) and use your imagination, whatever you’re trying to highlight.
We can not be silent or silenced by this lunatic in the White House and his gestapo army. Glad to read that the charges were dropped against Sean Dunn -- they were excessive and over the top. Score one for swift justice. Newsom--- pleased that he stood up, criticized the administration, while the new Trump army stood outside the building. This is nuts! This should not be happening in our country. Swords Up. Onward!
In my eyes, Gov. Newsom is a hero. He’s not the only Democrat speaking up but he’s the only one willing to take the 🍊felon to the mat on his own turf. No one else is willing to do that and it’s SAD! I’d like to see every Governor that wants to fight for democracy be like Gavin Newsom. Bold, brave and not taking any crap from this administration.
