"We shouldn’t rush past the deeply troubling mindset that equates protests with an attack on a democratic regime. When they turn violent, protests are obviously a threat to the rule of law, but a threat to the rule of law is not the same as β€œdestabilizing a regime.” Taking protests about police misconduct, over which the federal government has minimal oversight and responsibility, and making them about a threat to your own power is a authoritarian mindset."
