Resisting Arrest and Assault on a Police Officer is code for I'm ruining your life because you offended me
Yes, @HellGateNY confirms, the NYPD really DID have un-trained officers commander an MTA bus to take driver over the Brooklyn Bridge and to one police plaza. "The cops were kind of joking around with each other, like, oh, I hope we make it." hellgatenyc.com/nypd-officer-l…
Just in: 🔥🧵Charges dismissed for all 57 individuals detained during UT-Austin pro-Palestinian demonstration.
All charges were dropped against the 57 individuals arrested during the pro-Palestinian protest at the University of Texas on Wednesday. The Travis County Attorney's Office cited a lack of probable cause for all arrests, which were related to criminal trespassing.
It is strange that college presidents see thousands of students protesting across the country and conclude that the right response is to send in the cops against their own students. They're not at all concerned that a) it will backfire and b) they're on the wrong side of history?
Incredibly busy atm but have space for one more pro bono case so if you know an Emory student or faculty member that was arrested today and needs representation- DM me and I’ll tell you how they can reach me.
@artemis_nieves @TWULocal100 We didn’t win the injunction we were seeking in court but we prevailed on the issue . Immediately following the court case @TWULocal100 prevailed . It isn’t the job of @transportworker Bus Operators to drive buses loaded with arrestees. Especially those locked up in protests .
BREAKING: Students from Berklee College of Music marched into Northeastern’s campus around 7 p.m., joining NU protesters’ encampment.
I just watched on Instagram Live hordes of police descend on my alma mater, Emerson College, to arrest students who were peacefully protesting genocide. They pushed students who fell to the ground and threatened legal observers with arrest. This was the City of Boston’s decision
btw, these campus encampment sweeps mirror what happens at encampment sweeps of unhoused folks. Tents trashed, rights violated, violently displaced, & criminalized. As consciousness shifts re Gaza & state violence, folks ought to also be radicalized against sweeps.

USC valedictorian Asna Tabassum joined me on NewsNight tonight after her school cancelled her graduation speech citing “threats.” What she planned to say and what she thinks really happened:
Cops when little kids are being murdered in their school vs cops when college students are protesting a genocide

Not buying it. Why would they get tents online rather than simply using the hundreds of unique outdoor tents students regularly bring with them to attend college in New York City?

IS THERE A CONSPIRACY OF OUTSIDE AGITATORS FUELING PROTESTS IN NYC AS LLEGED BY @NYPDnews AND @NYCMayor???? OR ARE COLLEGE KIDS JUST BUYING THE CHEAPEST, MOST DISPOSABLE TENTS???? A @HellGateNY INVESTIGATION hellgatenyc.com/mayor-adams-ou…
Hochul didn't do any of this when pro-Palestine protesters at Columbia were sprayed with Skunk that left some hospitalized. When I asked if she planned to visit students, she said she had none at the time. If she ever did visit Columbia, Hochul did not publicize it like this

No sir. These are de minimis touchings, 70% of which don’t even hurt the officer’s feelings. Police often charge A&B LEO as leverage to coerce a guilty plea, or to cover up their own misconduct… …and that’s injustice and that’s beneficial to your garden virginiamercury.com/2020/07/20/som…
I hope one of the lessons everyone’s taking away from watching how these police officers handle student protests is that police brutality isn’t just the murders you see, but the routine daily violence police use on civilians to do something as simple as conduct arrests.
@FrenettMarco It's much more than 12-hour work days. You cannot ethically bill every minute that you work.
“To get to our students, you have to get through us.” Incredibly inspiring courage and solidarity from these professors, and a perfect emblem of why the right wing is dead set on defunding CUNY.
Faculty have formed a human barrier between their CUNY students and campus police.
@garysbroderick So right on. Winning really matters. And how we win, with mass participation, not "gotcha" tricks. It's mass participation that leads to durable wins and is the foundation of great political education. Appreciate you, Gary, and so many for hearing "winning matters most" from me.
@4everKentuckian yeah saying “i work here” while getting arrested for trespassing at her job was lowkey problematic
this position means that even tlaib is anti-palestine by virtue of being in congress, but if you believe that & are consistent i think that’s totally valid. if we agree to disagree on electoralism, then we can focus on building a coalition around the 99.99% of stuff we agree on
you actually cannot be a member of the US gov’t and be pro-palestine hope that helps ❤️
Faculty have formed a human barrier between their CUNY students and campus police.
Yesterday, CUNY Faculty formed a human barrier between campus police and their students. Today they picket using the same chant.
This of course doesn’t undermine the incredible work of youth and student activists. But this is what happens when you try to suppress healthy and democratic dissent. It grows hundredfold.
The Columbia admins must feel so uniquely stupid for basically igniting a national campus wide movement
I’m certainly not trying to make light of this But I just need yall to think about how they are doing this to an older white professor, with dozens of camera around They abuse their power like this every. Single. Day. They’ll say bodycam got lost too + charge HER w assault
It is worth watching this CNN video from the moment Emory Econ Professor @CarolineFohlin came across the violent arrest of a protester on campus and asked the police, with shock, "What are you doing?" That's all that prompted an officer to hurl her to the ground and handcuff her.
THE HECK YOU SAY.
All charges were dropped against the 57 individuals arrested during the pro-Palestinian protest at the University of Texas on Wednesday. The Travis County Attorney's Office cited a lack of probable cause for all arrests, which were related to criminal trespassing.

I find it really annoying that CNN’s Chief Legal Affairs Correspondent has never tried a case and barely practiced law (if she ever did) in the year between law school and becoming a journalist. And it shows by how career prosecutors disagree with her.
Any time someone unsympathetic is acquitted, or their conviction is reversed, the first person you should blame is the prosecutor. It's not a judge's fault for noticing the state fucked up.
I have never looked this cool in my life
