    Nobody seems to be talking about how these charges are coming out of the Manhattan District Attorney’s office. I wonder who decided to bring these charges.

        I’d assumed this was coming from the federal government after Trump’s new mandate to go after “left wing domestic terrorists” but instead it’s coming from the Democratic leadership of NYC using similar rhetoric to Trump’s.

        I dont find it all too surprising, but it’s yet another bullet point on the list demonstrating that the Democratic party is far more aligned with Republicans than with the American people.

          part of me sees it as a “lets set this up so we look like we’re complying but the case is too stupid to succeed” thing, but i have been accused of being a tad pollyannaish in the past.
