During the trial of two of the Freeway9 for their heroic actions in 2017 calling on people to rise up in mass, nonviolent but determined protest to drive out the Trump/Pence regime, the prosecutor filed an extraordinary and outrageous motion trying to pressure the judge to silence the defendants and their supporters from raising any political discussion in the courthouse and even outside the courthouse on public streets.

The prosecution’s motion tried to ban “any message regarding issues raised in this trial, including, but not limited to, Donald Trump, immigration, fascism, social injustices, et cetera.” They even raised objections, after the fact, about the politics in the testimony of the defendants about why they were compelled to step onto the freeway to stop business as usual.
