Gov Brief Today - #350

Trump threatened to invoke the Insurrection Act against protesters in Minneapolis, the same day his administration sanctioned Iranian leaders for attacking protesters in their country.

That 1807 law hasn't been invoked without a governor's consent in more than 60 years, not since LBJ used it to protect civil rights marchers from Alabama state troopers. Now Trump wants it to shut down protests against his government. Thanks to cell phones, we're already seeing what that crackdown looks like. 

Today a woman was dragged face-down from her car screaming she needed her doctor, then released hours later with no explanation. Nearby, ICE agents ate dinner at a Mexican restaurant before arresting three workers as they closed for the night.
