Solidarity with @DrJillStein and the antiwar movement! Drop the false charges against Jill Stein! On April 27, 2024, students at Washington University in St. Louis, and Green Party Presidential candidate and antiwar activist Jill Stein, peacefully protested against the horrific genocide in Gaza. Video of the protest shows the police assaulting the peaceful protesters, including an officer using a bicycle as a battering ram against Jill Stein and the students. Stein is now being falsely charged with assaulting a police officer and trespassing during the protest. This is blatant political retaliation, which in reality is directed against the antiwar movement as a whole, with the aim of making people afraid to protest. I demand that St. Louis County drop these charges on Jill Stein immediately. Stein in particular is being specifically targeted because she has had the courage to challenge both genocidal billionaire-backed protest parties in her campaigns for president. The Democratic Party in particular, which supported and funded the Israeli state's genocide and controls St. Louis County, wants to send a chilling message to anyone who would dare to challenge them like Stein has. If Jill Stein were to be convicted, she could face up to 18 months in prison. Students, working people, union members, and the antiwar movement must stand with Jill Stein. Demand that the false charges on Jill Stein be dropped immediately!
