Having now seen the longer video of the police interaction with Gideon Falter, I see that we have been misled.

The officer may have been more careful with his words, but Mr Falter was provocative to the point that an arrest for breach of the peace might have been justified

Great news that House of Representatives passed the support for Ukraine. But pretty terrifying statement about how US politics on the right has changed that a majority of Republicans voted against. What on earth has happened to the party of Eisenhower, Reagan and Roosevelt?1/2

Also clear that most those calling for Rowley to resign are annoyed because he refused to obey Braverman’s draconian call to ban peaceful protest. These are not people concerned about racism, but provocateurs with narrow sectarian interests
