A person was arrested at their home in Olympia this evening and taken to the Thurston County Jail where they were questioned about a demonstration that occurred last night. They were quickly released after invoking their right to remain silent. (1/4)

Moments before Atlanta City Council voted to fund Cop City, they brought these guys into the chambers. Because their rule comes from their strength and not their legitimacy. We have plenty of legitimacy where they do not. Now it is time for us to be strong.

More than 350 people spoke against Cop City through the night, and only 4 spoke in favor of it.

"Peace, nonviolence, & restraint" is the standard regular people are held to while the cops riot, murder a forest defender & lie about it, target peaceful activists in the city for arrest, slap them w/ bogus "terrorism" charges, & get caught on a police scanner bragging about it

After listening to over 12 hours of public comment against Cop City, City Council voted to fund Cop City by a vote of 11-4.
After community members left city hall, Councilman Matt Westmoreland made a point to stay and shake hands with Atlanta Police Officers.

BREAKING: In the dead of night, Atlanta's City Council voted 11-4 to approve $67 million for a police training center that will be an incubator for the criminalization of protest and attacks on low-income communities.
Pure cowardice.

"This project is being done against the will of the people of Atlanta." & directed at APF pres. Shipman, "Is the APF a nonprofit entity? Or are they a for profit real estate company purchasing homes on the west side perpetuating gentrification and displacing black residents?”

BREAKING: Georgia's top newspaper just posted a stunning expose of the many official lies about the burgeoning cost of the "Cop City" police center. The official narrative is officially collapsing.
Time to pull the plug.
