State violence to advance the end of “retribution” is death squad logic. https://t.co/f6ADhRMC3i— Brian Beutler (@brianbeutler) September 13, 2020
I assume that the suspect fired on the us marshals when they attempted to arrest him and he was killed when they returned fire. But the President insists it was an extrajudicial retribution killing. https://t.co/6JevPag5PZ— Josh Marshall (@joshtpm) September 13, 2020
Trump's encouragement of extrajudicial killing comes after a whistleblower described DHS demands to "modify intelligence" to paint antifa as a domestic terrorist threat. This is a systematic effort to put a group of Americans outside of the most basic legal protections. https://t.co/ufpHOiyKJs— Michelle Goldberg (@michelleinbklyn) September 13, 2020

Why isn’t there an AP story about the US President embracing extrajudicial killings?
They’d write it for Burkina Faso.— southpaw (@nycsouthpaw) September 13, 2020

First they came for antifa... If Trump steals this election seriously considering changing party affiliation. Been scared of this for four years. First Bannon's Nazi evilness, now well surpassed by Billy Barr's lawlessness.
