Nothing’s happening.

@JoeBiden Can a special task force be formed to reunite children with their parents? And support these families in any way we can to make up for the damage? And remove any and all of the players in these separations from the positions? Even the ones “just doing their jobs”?

Are you kidding me @MayorJenny ?! #resign #defundthepolice

[1stRoundFinish @1stRoundFinish]

Small scuffle. SPD claims the person they arrested crossed the line. From my perspective he was even with it. #seattleprotest #seattleprotests #seattleprotestscomms #seattlechop

Just got maced and gassed with hundreds others by Seattle police on 11th & Pine. With no provocation. All the movement was demanding was: Let us march!

Shameful violence under Mayor Durkan. And the 30-day tear gas pause is totally meaningless.

Durkan Must Go. #DefundPolice

How much does it cost to have an army occupy Los Angeles and why does my mom have to use her own paycheck to buy crayons for her first graders

Ballerinas Kennedy George, 14, and Ava Holloway, 14, pose in front of a monument of Confederate general Robert E. Lee in Richmond after Virginia Governor Ralph Northam ordered its removal. More images of outrage across America: https://t.co/VBis6chhOW 📷 @JuliaRendleman

I’d like to tell you a story about Bruce Springsteen and the New York City Police Department.

Sorry for the broken streams today. Producer Cam gave me his Verizon phone to use for today we should be all good. New link here https://t.co/eL0eJ6j1Qu

This is in Charleston. The man is on his knee, speaking and peacefully protesting. The police suddenly break line, walk over and arrest him.

@ericacbarnett @MayorJenny Great question, btw. Too bad she didn’t answer it. These pandemic press conferences make it pretty easy for the moderator to mute any reporters who try to pressure the mayor to answer the question asked.

Crazy video of Jo Ling Kent in what appears to be a war zone but is actually Seattle

[Cass Cross @cass]

Try asking, “what can I do to help?” NOT, “here’s what I did before.”

[Cass Cross @cass]

@MayorJenny Today you said “dialog is better” but you don’t seem to realize that protests start dialog. The people want your ear, won’t you listen? All I hear so far is complaining about the property damage.

[Clint Smith @ClintSmithIII]

Worth repeating that all of the police violence you see happening right now has been happening for a long time before there were any camera phones to record it. It’s a daily phenomenon in communities across the country. It’s structurally embedded into how these forces operate.

[Cass Cross @cass]

@MayorJenny Have you no words to tell the people of the city that you hear them, and you are committed to holding out of control police accountable? What kind of leader are you? Not one I’ll vote for.

[Jessica Ramos @jessicaramosqns]

A police officer pulls down a black man’s mask to pepper spray him! His hands were up, not behaving in any threatening way. This is outrageous.

[Rebecca Traister @rtraister]

Be super clear about who’s escalating violence

[Cass Cross @cass]

@GovInslee The police are inciting fear, don’t you get that? Police are causing the violence in these peaceful protests, all across the country. The police are the danger.

[Natalie Neysa Alund @nataliealund]

I cannot believe what I just witnessed. They pulled up onto the square with a police siren on and did this. #Louisville

[Cass Cross @cass]

@GovInslee @CityofSeattle @WANationalGuard But I’m guessing they will have batons, shields, mace, etc. Don’t kid yourself. The people will still be under the boot.
