Nonviolent protest also requires discipline and self-control. It’s HARD. Your instinct as a person is to escalate or even fight. Part of why everyday Minnesotans are winning is that it’s very obvious that the side without any discipline, the side escalating to violence on a whim, is ICE.
Nonviolent protest compels public sympathy. Violent protest repels it.

These are government employees. So our tax dollars are funding ICE to flash white supremacist cards at vulnerable POC as an intimidation tactic. Who is giving this direction?
There’s something deeply sinister happening in this country right now, and I don’t think we can take three more years.

It was JUST 45 days ago that Trump destroyed the brand of the Kennedy Center by slapping on his name.
And already Trump says he has to close it.

With ticket sales plummeting and artists pulling out, Trump decides to close the Kennedy Center for two years, promising to renovate it and try again to find an audience and performers when it reopens in 2028.
