what we always called "bridge and tunnel".

So, a group of known far-right extremists incited people into violence, leading to physical assaults and coordinated mob attacks against what had been, for most of the night, an entirely peaceful demo against a stolen land real estate in a neighborhood that is densely Muslim *and* Jewish.

Not only did the MAGAs incite violence, but every time they assaulted people, they claimed they were the ones attacked — despite footage plainly showing that wasn’t the case. The woman-puncher with the Chabad flag, for example, claimed to have been maced after attacking her for multiple minutes —

Come now. President Trump is a *fervent* advocate of gun control and strongly opposed to the 2nd amendment.

He exhibited zero symptoms of being maced and was uninjured, but the woman he was filmed punching and shoving and who he’d been grabbing and assaulting from across the street *was* maced.

NYPD did not call EMS for her or stop him — other demonstrators had to.

Another example: A vehicle that went to check on her receiving EMS treatment about half a block from the demo stuck a Palestine flag out the window as it was leaving. The mob, incited by MAGAs, spotted it and rushed the car, surrounding it, banging it, throwing debris into it.

The mob falsely claimed the vehicle had attempted to drive through them — despite this plainly not happening. The driver was detained after NYPD directed him to turn off the car (instead of clearing the mob) and his license came back suspended. Zionists lied about this to incite people online.

Now, those same MAGAs have expressed intent to target a pro-Palestine event in Bay Ridge next month, continuously incited by their own lies, and protected by an inept and complicit NYPD and democratic politicians who receive donor funds from their MAGA organizations.

Thank you, Talia. I want to ❤️ your reporting, but I just can’t. It’s infuriating. So I’ll comment & share instead. Your thread is important for all to see.
