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.
Did you know it was a constitutional right to throw a bottle or attack a law enforcement officer? I learn something new every day.
Krasner would love nothing better than to make good on his threat.
From Bloomberg:
Trumps 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 hed like to see more of.
A clash between local and federal law enforcement over how to manage protesters in Philadelphia if it comes to that would be unprecedented.
Krasner has little concern for law enforcement. Hes spent his entire career making it easier for violent criminals to operate.

Social workers will convince them to turn themselves in.
There is a statute that allows the Feds to remove any case against a federal official to the U.S. District Court.
Pennsylvania Ping!

When will he be arrested for Threatening Federal Government Employees?
Is he planning to perform this ("really futile and stupid gesture") personally? Or task the Philadelphia police with it?
The Feds (Bureau of Investigation, later the FBI) have been arresting anarchists in cities for more than 100 years. Mayors (no doubt) have been unhappy about this in the past, and I doubt that active resistance ever turned out well for any of them.
Larry Krasner is about to lose his job. I cannot believe he could be so stupid as to oppose a force sent in to return order to the city when he can’t. This guy’s from hunger. He should be ousted.
Arrest Krasner. :^)
