The federal government, respectfully, it's unrecognizable. Protecting the powerful at the expense of the vulnerable. Their credo seems to be about fear. Fear of the future, Fear of the stranger, fear of change. In Washington, the President believes that might makes right. That the courts are simply speed bumps, not stop signs. That democracy is a nuisance to be circumvented. Secret police, businesses being raided, windows smashed, citizens detained, citizens shot. Masked men snatching people in broad daylight. People disappearing. (06:07–06:17)
CLAIM
