Ah ok, I remember that story now by u and Mike Baker
I followed Oregonian coverage by Maxine Bernstein and OPB stories by Conrad Wilson as well (and remember the helicopters and tear gas)
Barr’s rhetoric struck me as similar to Trump’s
Red Queen attitude
Also, I might say Trump is promising a crackdown but the salient point is rightist pretense of victimhood re speech, coupled with “proudly” trampling on freedom of expression

For me, Trump’s insinuations and inconsistencies and self-contradictory claims don’t give him “ultimate cover”
