@theintercept bootlickers will lick the boot and abandon all sense and duty
@ChemicalEyeGuy geez a bit close to home for you :(
@theintercept @dedicto Can anyone say fascism? I hope the ACLU can get him released since this is *obviously* a case of freedom of speech. Two million bail?! What judge authorized that?? And on what evidence I'd like to know.
@theintercept A textbook case of law enforcement using policing and legal process to punish people they don't like when they know there is no chance of conviction. I hope he sues and bankrupts the county. And whoever set the bail should be unemployed.

@theintercept I really wish fascists couldn't speak or move a muscle. They should be paralyzed from the waste down minimum and every time they try to speak they should get an electric shock since they don't care about the truth or justice
THIS. IS. WHAT. HAPPENS. IN. #FASCIST. #DICTATORSHIPS
WHEN. WILL PEOPLE. WAKE. UP?
