In this episode, we speak with journalist Dell Cameron, about how Trump’s DHS in the hot summer of 2020, attempted to manufacture a non-existent terror network led by ‘ANTIFA.’ Guided by far-Right conspiracies and Trump’s tweets, DHS officials set to work violating the rights of protesters and flooding the streets of Portland with federal troops, as Trump hoped to score political points for the upcoming election. Cameron describes what played out and the threats this reality poses to social movements, civil liberties, and dissent.
