U.S. Attorney Justin Herdman is on 🔥 here as he excoriates white nationalism and Nazism. His remarks (as he was announcing charges) got lost due to all the huge news this weekend, but they deserve to be heard in full.

Key quotes in the thread/
"The Constitution protects your right to speak, your right to think and your right to believe. If you want to waste the blessings of liberty by going down a path of hatred and failed ideologies, that is your choice."
"Thousands and thousands of young Americans already voted with their lives to ensure that this same message of intolerance, death and destruction would not prevail. You can count their ballots by visiting any American cemetery in North Africa, Italy, France or Belgium."
The part about free speech is brilliant:

The Constitution may give you a voice, but it doesn’t guarantee you a receptive audience... What you don’t have, though, is the right to take out your frustration at failure in the political arena by resorting to violence."
Your "actions don’t make you soldiers, they make you cowards. And law enforcement does not go to war with cowards who break the law. We arrest them and send them to prison."
As a reminder, U.S. Attorney Justin Herdman is a Trump appointee in Ohio, and he made these remarks as he was announcing charges against a guy involved with the Charlottesville rally. Full story:
