The bourgeoisie call for no violence yet use the terrorist police to Brutalize anyone who dares to protest. Not just in france but worldwide. Liberalism is the mask of fascism.
Aucune place pour la violence dans notre République.
Ceux qui ont cassé, attaqué les préfectures comme les commerces, pillé jusqu’à nos mairies, seront poursuivis et punis.
Aux forces de l’ordre, garantes du droit à manifester, je dis le soutien de la Nation.
Nous ferons tous bloc face aux semeurs de chaos, qui ne cherchent qu’à abattre nos institutions et empêchent ceux qui expriment pacifiquement leurs revendications de le faire.

In Maine, Michigan and Minnesota we are watching the Democratic Establishment’s hand picked candidates lose and then either actively or passively undermine the party and or their nominee. This is an abject failure by the Democratic leadership.
Detroit News: Former Chair of the Michigan Democratic Party is leading an effort to make sure Democrats leave their ballot blank for the US Senate race in Michigan.
Lon Johnson, the former chair, supported Rep. Haley Stephens over El-Sayed in the August Democratic primary.

A good rule of history: if you find yourself opposing a student movement while siding with the ruling class, you're wrong. Every time, in every era, whatever the issue.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Student movements have not always been on the right side of history. Mao's student Red Guards persecuted hundreds of thousands. Students helped Castro and Khomeini rise to power, and Nazi student groups opposed the Weimar Republic.

When Democrats come back into power, they need to understand that this is not the time to come together and "move on and heal" as a nation. I want names. I want charges. I want court cases. I want indictments. That's what I fucking want when Democrats come back into power.

CNN: Lansing mayor says he won’t vote for Abdul El-Sayed
Lansing Mayor Andy Schor says his Jewish heritage leaves him uncomfortable with some of what he’s heard from El-Sayed
Schor said he won’t vote for Rogers but also won’t back El-Sayed – at least until they have a conversation. He hasn’t heard from El-Sayed yet.
“If he doesn’t need me, he doesn’t need me,” Schor said. “And that’s their strategic decision.”
