Appearing this morning on MSNBC's Velshi show, Leonnig said she felt compelled to call out Trump's "misinformation" in Trump's Truth Social post calling on supporters, in the context of his possibly imminent arrest, to "Protest. Take back our nation."
LEONNIG: It's not a violent crime he's charged with. And that means that he would be given negotiated terms under which to voluntarily turn himself in. Nobody is coming for him with cuffs. You know, he has the opportunity to come in a back elevator, backstairs, no perp walk, if he chooses. And instead, Donald Trump is really choosing to use this rhetoric to suggest that jack-booted thugs are coming for him on Tuesday, and people will have to stop this from happening.

According to this WaPo hack, Trump calling on people to protest and take back the nation = telling them to stop “jack-booted thugs” from arresting him.
Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.
Bull chit. There hasn’t been a good record of that when conservatives have been involved.
Trump has created multiple orgasms for the left-wing media with this arrest information...ROFLMAO!!!!!!!
No, A washington reporter his telling us something that TRUMP NEVER SAID!
America is ruled by evil.
Yes he is, because America is in its Weimar phase, with an incapacitated President being advised by Nazis and communists.
Edited for clarity.
I want to know why they have not come for Hunter among others.
So yes- Jack booted thugs is exactly what they are.
She provided the language in question.
It’s an admission, not an accusation.
Best analogy yet, except Hindenberg was loved and respected by at least a few people.
I don’t know of ANYONE who actually likes Biden; it ranges from ‘he’s the senile uncle who might leave me a lot of money” to “He’s corrupt and senile, but at least he’s not Donald Trump’.
BUT IT'S OK FOR YOUR SIDE TO BREAK THE LAW PROTESTING?
Enraged pro-choice protesters vowed to descend on the homes of the six conservative Supreme Court justices on Saturday after posting their addresses online in the wake Roe v. Wade being overturned.
The pro-abortion group, Ruth Sent Us, started circulating the justices’ addresses in the hours after the high court struck down the landmark abortion case Friday and as violent protests broke out nationwide.
Dozens of protesters showed up outside Justice Clarence Thomas’ home overnight, chanting “no privacy for us, no peace for you!” and accusing his wife, Ginni, of being an “insurrectionist.”

The left’s agenda is a lot like the national socialist program. They behave a lot like the Nazis.
“COULD YOU GUYS JUST RIOT SO WE CAN IMPOSE MARTIAL LAW??”
At least the Nazis didn’t call all Irish as drunks usually in prison.
“Donald Trump is really choosing to use this rhetoric to suggest that jack-booted thugs are coming for him”
Trump’s not wrong. It’s Leftist thugs today, the jack-boots come later.
I haven’t heard or read anything trump said about this but.
🐂 💩
Trump has the money to hire the best lawyers available. If the case is as weak as some claim, it’s going to be a cakewalk to beat this.
If the case is solid, and Trump is behaving like it is, then one may want to think twice about putting your own freedom at risk. Look what happened to the J6 protestors.
War Room should be interesting viewing this week.
