A mobilizações antirracistas e antifascistas que tem movimentado os Estados Unidos desde a morte de George Floyd, em maio, ganhou um novo gás neste final de semana.
A decisão do presidente Donald Trump de enviar agentes federais contra os manifestantes acabou impulsionando os protestos, que registraram cenas fortes em Portland (Oregon) e em Seattle (Washington). Uma barreira de mães foi montada na cidade do Oregon.
Segundo informações da agência ANSA, Austin (Texas), Louisville (Kentucky), Omaha (Nebraska), Nova York, Los Angeles (Califórnia) e Richmond (Virgínia) também registraram mobilizações.
O presidente Donald Trump classificou neste domingo (26) os manifestantes como “anarquistas que odeiam o país”.

Analysis: protesters have tried to bring down every fence erected for the last 59 days. Other fences around the courthouse have come down before. These protesters do these tactics to provoke a response and show how much law enforcement overreact to property damage. pic.twitter.com/CbVSZzMuIT

This is quite something. One officer gives a go signal, and a group of Seattle bike cops charges through a parting line of officers and into the crowd of protesters. pic.twitter.com/nEHDO0jTu5
