The top prosecutor in Philidelphia is warning that any federal agents sent to his city will face criminal charges if they assault or kidnap protesters.
District Attorney Larry Krasner says his dad volunteered to fight "Fascism" in World War II "So we would not have an American president brutalizing and kidnapping Americans for exercising their constitutional rights."
Trump's dare to deploy additional troops to more cities will test the mettle of reformist prosecutors like Krasner, who has aggressively pursued police reforms and taken steps to eliminate what he calls unethical and unconstitutional police practices that Trump has said he'd like to see more of.
Today, Krasner is one of the most outspoken of the crop of progressive district attorneys elected in major cities across the country in the past few years.
It "Looked illegal"? You want to arrest federal agents because what they do looks illegal? Anyone for "Prosecutorial misconduct"?
It's big-city politicians like Mayor Lori Lightfoot in Chicago and prosecutor Krasner in Philadelphia.
Since Biden appears to be tacitly encouraging the violence, he becomes an easy target for the Trump campaign to paint as a dangerous radical.
