Wonderful. Maybe the BLM protests can now commence and continue making a difference.

Just heard a report from NPR about this issue especially in Seattle. A necessary listen. [npr.org]
The mayor, Jenny Durkin, is worried that the feds coming into cities is a preview for a future deceleration of martial law.

I’m Cautiously optimistic about this news, because we know that Barr and trump are both liars and seem to be getting away with a lot of illegal shit.

@SeaGreenEyez The whole reversal seems so unlike trump too. I wonder what Pence did to bring this about?, as what I’ve read is that the Governor had a meeting with him and got this outcome after that meeting. I am hopeful that the other cities that will be invaded won’t get as bad as Portland. I also believe the people who are trying to take the BLM movement down are who is really responsible for all this chaos in my opinion.
@Redheadedgammy Some feds have come to Seattle but they agreed to stay back in the shadows and let the lovcl police handle things.
@JackPedigo Thank goodness they are staying back in the shadows and not abusing people there!
@SeaGreenEyez I think Mr Najee Gow has it exactly right! Thanks for sharing, as it tells an important part of this whole BLM movement.
